| - We were excited when we heard Zipps was moving into the S. Chandler location. We've been to their other locations and love their ice cold beer selection, their wings are the absolute best and always consistently prepared, and there are TV's everywhere when we want to watch games (especially ASU because we don't get the Pac 12 games at home w/our cable network). The prices too are super reasonable and the portions generous with one exception (see comments to follow).
Here's why the lower rating... First of all, the volume of the TV's are insanely loud!!!! At first we thought it was an accident or one employee cranking the volume, and now after a ton of visits, we know that's just how it's going to be. Even our teenagers, who've grown up eating at other Zipps, hate the volume so we would never choose to go there because the atmosphere is shot, volume dialed up even on nights when there is not a major game.
Secondly, the food, with the exception of the wings and salads, is just not that good. The focaccias have almost no meat in them and the fries are typically undercooked. The burgers are average, the bacon hard and over-cooked on numerous occasions.
We eat out 5 plus times a week between lunch and dinner and I really hope this location improves because we'd love to go more.
