| - Found the place on Yelp while looking for a place close by that I could grab a bite to eat and watch a D-Back game. A stand alone building in a Shopping Mall that was a pleasant surprise upon entering. Hometown bar feel that was clean, a couple pool tables, tons of TV's, off track sports betting and a huge bar. I was surprised it not being very busy being a Saturday evening but it made it easy to pick a seat at the bar in front of the game. 3 bartenders, bar back and 2 servers seen but none seemed to want to acknowledge me. The bartender who seemed to have my section was pretty intensely involve with a texting session and the other passed without ever looking my way. There were approx 4 people in my section when one guy near yelled Leanne and got the texting ladies attention. She slowly walked his way without missing a text. She gave him a beer and did ask what I would like to drink. I ordered a Corona and a menu if they are still serving. I looked at the menu and was surprised at the variety. It took 15 minutes to get the Texting Goddess' attention to place an order for the Crafty Veteran Burger with french fries. About 10 minutes later I noticed 4 baskets of food show up in the kitchen window, one was definitely a burger and I waited in anticipation. after 10 minutes of waiting I finally caught the Texting Princess's eye and pointed to the food in the pass. She ambled over and looked at the food and went back to her phone then yelled across the room, "It's not yours, Yours is not ready yet." Another 10 minutes passed when I noticed a male bartender look at the 4 baskets of food and begin to carry them out to customers. To my surprise the burger that sat in the pass for close to 20 minutes was mine. The bartender asked me if I wanted a fresh burger after I explained the Texting Goddess actions but the game was almost over and I was hungry. The burger was good, nice Brioche Bun, fresh veges, good thick beef. The fries would have been crispier fresh but were ok anyway. The condiments come in a basket but the mustard spout was so caked with dried crust nothing would come out, maybe a good thing for health reasons. Overall I would have given a 4 star review except for the horrible service from Leanna and the lack of interest of all the servers and bartenders except the one who brought my order. He was a shorter hispanic guy with shaved head, sorry I did not get his name, but he added a star to my review. The food and having sports might make me try again but my guess is Management is absent here as most of the servers and bartenders just did not smile nor care about customer service.
