| - Great place to escape the norm!
We knew this placed opened last month, and have not had a chance to enjoy it. So last night we made our way over to Doc's to check it out..
we got there early... 7:30, so it was that weird "in-between" time ..so the place was not packed yet. Doc's has a bar/DJ room.. and then they also have the Dinner/Show room. We had a few drinks in the Bar/DJ area, it was great to have a DJ in an upscale bar. Our bartender was awesome, attentive and sociable.
When the band started playing in the Dinner/Show room, we went over there to check it out... just outside the two rooms is a large patio with a nice fire pit, lit and warm! This is one of the nicest smoking area's I've ever seen in Arizona and with the windows to the show bar open, you can enjoy the music outside!
The band was great, and the staff warm and friendly. We shared a HUGE plate of the Grilled Chicken bow tie pasta... Grilled chicken atop bow tie pasta, with tons of veggies all stirred up in a creamy garlic sauce...YUMMY!!!!!! The pate was more then enuf for two. It was great to relax, enjoy a nice meal and watch a great jazz band. We understand from other patrons, that they often come to hear Nayo Jones sing, they say she is awesome. We can wait to come back and see her.
The location cannot be beat... just a short walk from the Light Rail stop.
Happy hour is Tues-Sat 5:00PM to 7:00PM and we hear their "Salsa Thursdays" 8:00pm-? (5.00 cover) are great!
Even if you have dinner somewhere else, this is a great place to come and relax and listen to some really good music afterwords.. no cover Fridays and Saturdays!!!
