I've been here a few times now. Bartenders, you make a great drink. And you're nice. Until I show you my Yelp check in deal and for some reason, my check is never correct. My last two visits have been this way. The first time was an undoubtedly a mistake, but the 2nd time-not so much. I'm sorry. I know I'm not your typical uppity Scottsdale clientele-but I'm a Yelp check in addict. And if they're going to give me a deal on drinks, I'm going to use it. I get the look of annoyance upon correcting you. The last time I was there, I tried to use my check in deal. I opened a tab with a credit card, and when I went to go close it-the bartender just swiped my card without letting me know how much my tab was and also, didn't acknowledge me trying to get his attention when I tried to let him know I had a check in deal. When he gave me the tab, I let him know about it and he acted like there was nothing he could do about it because he already ran the card. Until I said I was trying to get his attention and he ignored me-then magically he could void that charge.
On a more positive note, I do like Mabel's. The atmosphere is great, it's definitely classy and upscale. The customer service is very inconsistent. I understand that when I come it's pretty busy, but you really shouldn't expect for the customer to keep a running total in their head of their tab and just run their card when they ask to close it.
