| - Stopped in a few weeks ago to check out the successor to the Atomic 29, which was a short lived BBQ joint that formerly occupied this space.
The Tilted Kilt is a YAF (Yet Another Franchise) class establishment, that some some clever people have christened the "Irish Hooters". The original location made its debut at the Rio in Las Vegas, and it has been spreading like an airborne virus across the land ever since.
What's good about the Tilted Kilt: Lots of beer on tap, including, Four Peaks Tilted Kilt, Stone Arrogant Bastard, and Rogue Dead Guy Ale. Available in big ole "Man Size" 20oz imperial pints. Stockings and plaid skirts. Lots of flat screen TVs, and one big projector screen playing sports if that's your thing. Stumbling distance from my fortified compound.
What not so good: The meat-head crowd that a few of the above features attract. YAF status. Totally blacked out windows, a la every shitty bar in Las Vegas. Crappy tattoos.
The first night I went they had Ultimate Fighting Championship bouts playing on the numerous flat screen TV's. A few other TVs usually feature what appears to be a "house" extreme sports style channel, similar to Fuel TV, but called ITV here, IIRC. It's got all your standard bullshit bmx, surfing, base jumping, skate, white guys with shitty tatoos to zone out to. Usually more entertaining than the main stream sports, IMO.
While the fight was taking place the Kilt was packed with a lot of East Valley muscle head D-bag bros rockin the Affliction shirts and ball caps with flat bills cocked ever so expertly to the side, moto-cross style bay-bay. As soon as the fights ended, they mostly cleared out.
A few weeks ago when I was passing by, I did see several Mesa police cars and an ambulance in back, so this might be a good place to catch a real fight, or perhaps get your own teeth kicked in.
The waitresses were numerous, and helpful, friendly & bubbly. The food was decent both times that I've been there, I had the pulled pork sandwich, and the buffalo wrap. Pricing is alright, not really any smokin' deals on food or drinks was my general impression.
Outside there is a big L-shaped patio w/music and misters for you smokey treat lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Inside the bar, there seems to be sports blaring from all TV's earlier in the day/eve, with music later on at night. The music wasn't half bad, last time I went.
