| - This newest location is by far my favorite setup. I say this as a girl with a well-behaved pup, a curious toddler, and a penchant for chill fun.
You enter the restaurant via the outdoor patio, where you see high-top booths with dog leashes attached to the carabiners provided. Then it opens out to low firepit tables with couch seating, flanked with game areas. Ping pong tables and giant labyrinths on one side, 3 corn hole sets and foosball tables on the other, with a cute grassy area for the pets (as well as a hidden hand washing station- though currently not working) behind. It's a great setup. Open and welcoming with a fantastic ambiance. Their bar is has plenty of seating and TVs. And that bar makes a killer Moscow mule. Happy hour is THE time to come for cheap small pitchers of great local beers.
On opening day, we saw scads of dogs happily sitting at the feet of their owners, getting free OHSO dog treats. Didn't love seeing the dogs sitting on the couch seating, however. This is still a restaurant, guys, and those are some big dogs. But my kelpie was excited to sniff all the new pup butts and even tried out that grassy spot in back.
My second visit was with kid in tow. Let me tell you, we made it through two and a half hours here with flying colors. Plenty of space to wander around, things to pick up, dogs to watch, and tiny little kid plastic chairs to stack and move. Inside, there are some non-bar height booths next to the window that we were eventually seated at with a high chair where he enjoyed his tiny little cheeseburger, which was nice.
Speaking of the food, it's pretty good. The crab dip and the devilish egg dip are tasty, but they're really very small. The shrimp tacos needed an extra kick to be memorable and my Ensalada del Sol was lacking in dressing and the corn salsa. But those burgers! AZ Burger or Arcadia Veggie Burger are where it's at. I'd eat those all day long. And the Brisket + Mac was incredible. The "adult" strawberry and mango sorbet is perfectly refreshing to finish off a hot night.
The location is perfect for us and I can't wait to come back, but I really do hate the parking situation during happy hour. The bartenders look a bit over worked and thus weren't very friendly to those of us grabbing a drink to go play games on the patio. We were also noticing that the patio has no REAL cover for when the summer hits. Hopefully they've got a plan for shade. But our service was generally good and, overall, I love all that they have to offer here. Cheers.
