| - (This is in the old Famous Sams location. I guess it has a new name now.) I had to break my "no spending money" in Mesa policy, but only because it was my mom's birthday and she lives there. I had read in the paper that JJ Madisons had just opened, so we decided to check it out. JJ Madisons is a sports bar and has everything you would expect: tons of flat screen tvs with a football game playing, pool tables, decent happy hour beer prices, overweight suburbanites, arcade games, a spot for a band, and a menu full of many delicious options. The server was friendly and amiable; she joked with me like we were good chums, but not in that phony annoying way. I had a tough time choosing what to get, but settled on the Philly. It was stuffed with delicious meat and grilled onions. All their bread comes from a local bakery in Tempe, too. I never went to the Famous Sams that used to be here, so I'm not sure if it's the same stuff with a new look. I don't usually like sports bars, but I'd go back here.
