We arrived earlier in the evening before the music started so we could hopefully grab a table. Thank goodness we did because the space filled up fast. It was so crowded it was hard to move around. From what I heard, they usually have the band outside, but since it was raining, they were crammed into the very small corner in the back. Aside from the space being tight, I had a good time. I don't drink beer, but they had other options for me to chose from. I particularly loved the boozy kombucha they had on tap. They ran out early in the evening, so I was only able to grab one, but it was really good. They don't serve food, but they allow you to bring outside food in. The staff was busy, but they were friendly and answered questions I had. Lastly, the sense of community amongst all the people there was obviously special. Everyone seemed to know each other, which is a cool thing to experience.

The Thirsty Prospector

Tucked into…read moreSonora like a well-kept secret, this place serves up craft drinks with a side of literary charm and somehow makes it feel completely natural to sip a cocktail while thumbing through a novel. The staff? Absolute gems behind the bar, friendly, sharp, and clearly masters of their craft. They'll recommend a drink as easily as a good read, and somehow nail both. The vibe is what really strikes gold though. Between the shelves of books and the historic touch of the original cash register (which deserves its own drink special, honestly), the whole place feels like stepping into a story you don't want to end. Come for a drink, stay for a chapter... and probably another round.

The bar is impressive and a great way to be greeted. There is seating available if you want to grab a bite to eat while you indulge in a handcrafted cocktail. The entrance leads to an amazing outdoor area with a courtyard, lots of seating and more bar areas. There is an upstairs area that has views of Sonora, but also overlooks the outdoor area which is great for people watching. The Armory is family and dog friendly and it was great to see families and their fur babies enjoying the relaxing atmosphere. The menu has great appetizers to share, salads and bowls, tacos, sandwiches, and satisfying pastas + a delicious short rib plate. The drink menu is extensive - they have an impressive variety of barrel-aged bourbons, Irish whiskeys, scotch, rye, tequila, and mezcal and quite the selection of beers on tap, in bottles, and in cans. The wine list will have something for everyone. And the cocktails all looked amazing! We had the smoked pork nachos, ahi poke bowl, and the Rodeo Burger. Everything was tasty and came out quickly. The Armory is a must try!

Carnitas did have crispy edges and was tasty. Rice wasn't too fluffy but was fairly good. Beans were good. Drinks: I got the margarita martini and husband got the Paloma. Both were tasty. We would definitely come back.

It is such a huge loss to the community :( We are deff going to miss the food, the drinks, and all the memories we've had over the years. Here's to one last round...

However, it was sooooo slow. From the moment we were seated it probably took about 15 minutes before we were acknowledged. Then it took the same before our drinks were brought and they finally took our order. Nearly 1 hour after we sat some of our pizza finally came. The calzone took an extra 15 minutes. During the wait we did not get an update or any notice from the one or two staff members. When the food eventually came out it was still missing things. When we placed the order we asked for marinara and ranch. Neither came out with the pizza and we had to ask 4 times before it was finally brought to our table. Not to mention, we only asked for 1 marinara and they brought 2 that were half full and charged us for 2.... Some of the pizza options were fun and creative but the service and speed was a huge letdown. It is sad to see another place in Sonora go out of business but this place did basically everything wrong.

They didnt have a printed kids menu but he helped my kids choose their food. We got ourselves some food and drinks as well. Everything came out fairly quickly. 1. The fancy fondue was very yummy. It came with toasted sourdough bread. 2. Garlic bread was also good. We dipped that into the fondue once we were done with the sourdough. It enhanced the taste further. 3. Kids loved the pepperoni pizza and fish & chips. 4. Our server also accommodated our request for a half and half garlic chicken pizza with no meat on one side. The pizza came out great.

Their happy hour is DAILY from 14:00-16:00. The restaurant was pretty busy on a Sunday, but we didn't have to wait long for a table. Our server was attentive and friendly. For our cocktails, my friend went with the Huckleberry lemonade, while I went with the pomegranate whiskey sour. She thoroughly enjoyed her cocktail, and so did I. At that price point, I didn't expect much, but it was a solid cocktail, although not as strong as what I'd normally get elsewhere. The clam chowder sounded really good, and I couldn't help myself, so I ordered it. My friend is not a fan of seafood, so the chowder was all for me. The crostini was very nicely toasted and I loved dipping it into the chowder. I was also pleasantly surprised by the flavor and quality of the clam chowder. It was packed with a ton of clams, and was perfectly hearty without being heavy. We opted to share the fallen apple pizza, which was the perfect choice. The dough was pillowy and light, and the toppings delicious. I would have liked more apple slices, as it didn't seem like they were very prominent, and for the balsamic drizzle to be more uniform, but overall it was a solid pizza. I took leftover pizza home, and my husband enjoyed it for dinner. We heated it up in the air fryer and that was the way to go. While it was a little noisy in the restaurant, mainly due to a large group seated next to us, we still had a good experience, and the booth seating was comfy. I would love to bring my husband back to try more happy hour menu items next time we visit Sonora! The price point is seriously hard to beat, and Emberz is a solid spot for hanging out and having a good time.
