| - Strictly beer related review, as I rarely eat anything other than the beer bites here.
Straight up, this place cannot be beat for incredible beer selection. The selection of drafts is always incredibly diverse, with drafts you're unlikely to see anywhere else in Arizona. As if these rare brews weren't good enough, Papago actually brews their own beers, a few of which are regular selections when I visit: Oud Zuipers is a really nice Belgian Ale, the El Robusto is just a great porter, and (my favorite) the Coconut Joe, a coconut-infused porter that's just about the tastiest thing ever (and I can't even stand coconut in other culinary creations).
The only downside to this place is that it can get incredibly busy on Friday and Saturday nights. Good luck finding a table if you show up after 10, and even if you do, the servers are so busy that you might end up having to get your drink from the bar. However, if you show up for happy hour between 2 and 6 pm, you're almost guaranteed to get good service (and something like a dollar off per drink, which makes some of the beers a criminally good deal). Also, the servers know their stuff when it comes to the beer. If it's your first time in, they're more than happy to suggest a beer based on other brews you've had, or just a particular flavor profile you have in mind. They'll even bring out a sample to make sure you'll be happy with your selection.
Oh! They also have a big beer cooler in the back, so you can create your own 6 pack of beers to take home, or order straight from the cooler if they don't have the particular beer you want on tap. Definite plus.
