Great place to relax and grab a drink on Sunday funday! Thank you to the staff for reminding me how amazing this place is! read more

Had a blast at Sawtooth this past Tuesday. It was a trivia night. Ordered a Moscow mule, some chili cheese tots (basically tater tots with fully loaded nacho fixins), and parked it with my friends. The totchos were great, I ate more than my stomach appreciated. My husband ordered a fried chicken sandwich with marinara and a cold beer. I did not ask him how his meal was, but his sandwich disappeared pretty quickly so im assuming it was tasty. The woman running trivia was delightful, with a fantastically dry sense of humor. At one point she mentioned she once got to see Prince and touched his ankle. Long story short, I have now touched the hand that touched Prince's ankle. We made it through 7 rounds of trivia and somehow WON! A crowning achievement of year 37 of my life, for sure. This win earned us: a $25 gift certificate to the lovely Sawtooth Bar & Grill establishment, a rubber ducky of our choosing, a crystal pendant (optional), and 1 week of ownership of the trivia night trophy . We did not trust ourselves to remember to bring back the trophy, and I did not trust some of the fellas to bring it back in one piece, so the bar staff graciously took custody of it until next week's trivia night. The bar itself is super cozy. Nice low lighting, small place but you don't feel cramped. Lots of TVs and a few arcade games. My husband and his BFF frequent this spot and tell me wonderful things about the owner. With the decor, setup, menu and general ambience, it feels like a Midwestern bar more than one in AZ. All in all, I really enjoyed myself and will happily return for another trivia night. If the staff ever happens upon this review, I apologize for the conjoined twins that are my husband and his best friend Scott. They're like a couple of labradors out on a play date when they're together. Thanks again for the fantastic evening, Sawtooth! read more

Horrible place. Was doing karaoke and was told to get out because I was sleeping. I was literally enjoying the music. They cut me off early and don't know how to properly run a bar! read more

This has quickly become our favorite neighborhood bar. Shelly and her staff are awesome. Super welcoming. We absolutely love their wings, there are so many flavors to chose from. We make it a point to go in at least once a week, whether it's Monday or Thursday night football-there are tons of TVs on to make sure you have a 360° view. The fried pickles are amazing. Definitely get the chicken tenders! If you're looking for a cozy neighborhood bar with an owner that is completely involved in her business, Don't hesitate to visit! read more

We came in to watch the Celtics game, and as requested Shelley offered to put it on as requested at our convenience. We ordered 4 flavors of wings: lemon garlic pepper, stinging' honey garlic, kicking' cilantro, and honey hot. Our fav were cilantro and the lemon garlic. They have plenty of TVs and also have little games to play: like golf and hunters game. The ambience is amazing, and very warming. Shelley has many pictures throughout the business including the bathroom , and it's very positive. Check it out! read more

If you eat the hellfire wings do everyone a favor and shower after. I used the restroom while eating and anything I touched burned. yes, it felt like the zipper on my bail sack was on fire. I rubbed my eyes. Eyes on fire. (Yes I washed my hands multiple Times) before I got in bed with my girlfriend I made sure to sure so I wouldn't make anyone sens else uncomfortable. The hellfire wings are hot!!! I was warned. I'm passing down the warning read more

Amazing bar. Never change anything about it. From karaoke to trivia to just watching the game, perfect. Outdoors channels going. Love it there. read more

This review is long overdue. We've been coming to Sawtooth for years, primarily for watching sports and enjoying the great food and ambience. Shelly, the owner, has built an ideal neighborhood sports bar that not only has numerous options for watching most sporting events but provides outstanding food! Bonus: this place has the best wings in the east valley. There are numerous flavor options and we've never been disappointed. Service is friendly and efficient as well. Can't say enough about Sawtooth. Great, family friendly atmosphere and always a fun experience. Highly recommended. read more

My husband and I were on a business trip and saw this place come up on Yelp. As a native Idahoan, and seeing finger steaks on the menu, we both wanted to check it out. The whole place was on point. If you ever spent time in the Sawtooth Mountains, you'd feel at home. The finger steaks and fry sauce were like the best you'd find in Idaho. And the Sawtooth wings were super delicious!! Loved them Shelley was a bad ass getting metal pulled from her finger that came from moving a keg, which seemed perfect. (We just so happened to come in when that happened) it didn't stop her from giving us great service and great food. Makes me want to go back to the Stanley Basin, which her whole place reminded me of. Thank you for giving us a great home away from home, away from home experience. . I bet we could have talked about some CSI rodeo folks if she wasn't so busy. It was a fun, unexpected experience to find in Chandler!! read more

Creepy experience. I live close by and am trying to check out all the neighborhood bars. Went in with my bf. If he wasn't with me I probably would have immediately walked out. It's loud. I felt like we walked into someone's party we weren't invited too. We sat at a table (which was sticky and gross). Kept getting lots of weird looks from people (like who are you and why are you in our bar?) but couldn't get the attn of any staff - server and bartender looked at us multiple times. We left after waiting 12 minutes. I felt like no one wanted to wait on us and just had a creepy feeling from the crowd and staff read more

Do yourself a favor and try Sawtooth. They are lightly staffed so be patient, I promise you'll be pleased! The bar food is consistently the best we've had in AZ, everything is delicious. My favorite are the boneless wings! I'm a die hard bone-in fan but holy crap these are delicious. Fries are hand cut and satisfying. Beer ice cold and reasonably priced. Like another poster said, feels like a midwestern bar, everyone friendly and outgoing, no pretenses. Give it a try if you are in the mood for cold drinks and outstanding food! read more

I will say this: Shelley thinks she has enough regulars. We live less than a mile away and won't be back. read more

First time here and definitely not my last. I was looking for a place to watch my team's first preseason game. I called around and the owner took the time to see if it was being televised... and it wasn't . I was able to watch football nonetheless. I ordered 1/2 order of nachos with ground beef, very tasty. The homemade salsa was great. I also ordered the green chile burger... one of the best burgers I've eaten outside of my home. I am not a wing eater, but I did notice the wings were huge. Lots of different sauce options. Small and quaint with great atmosphere. I will definitely go back. read more

First time at this neighborhood establishment Saturday and I will report that the wings and skinny tenders were really good! Shelley the owner was also our server and she was very attentive and polite. I loved the bumpin sound system and played the appropriate country music to fit the crowd at this Idaho bar. We didn't want to ruffle too many feathers as it was definitely a place local regulars come and have their own community proudly expressing themselves in their "Biden's an Idiot" shirt for example all having connections upon entering. Anyhow, clothing is a personal and has nothing to do with this review nor does the owner control what patrons wear or their political leans. I'm mentioning it because the setting, culture and energy may scew your decision to stop in. If you go out, you know this is a fact. The reason I'm not giving the place 5 stars is the lack of up charge disclosure. We ordered Tito's sodas. We were brought talls. We didn't ask for talls, some places serve them in these glasses so didn't think anything of it. When the bill came we were charged an extra 2.99 for these tall drinks we didn't request as tall. I ordered the skinny tenders. I saw only fries and tots were included and all salads and tomato's were an extra $1.99 on the menu. I let Shelley know I wanted no side. She was very personable and recommended the tomatoes which were healthy and said that's how she eats them. We had something in common. There was rapport. Genuine desire to offer me something that would make me happy. I agreed. Since she didn't mention that would be $1.99 I thought maybe she was being nice and wouldn't charge us for them. They were on the receipt. I can afford it, not a big deal. But I consciously originally decided I didn't want a side because I didn't see the point in paying extra for a few 1 tiny slices of tomato. No such luck. So the discounted Star is for the lack of pricing disclosure. Full disclaimer is always honest and transparent. We won't be back. Wasn't a feel good spot for us and that's probably by design. It may be yours. If you don't want price surprises, specify you'd like a short beverage. And don't expect any being nice free tomatoes. You will pay to play. Cheers! read more

I stopped in here last night for dinner with my friends. We arrived around 9pm and were there around an hour. There was one other customer there who was just drinking beer after beer and kept going outside to smoke - probably a regular. A few others came in as we were getting ready to leave, but nobody else came in the hour we were there. The bartender/server took our drink orders quickly. One of my friends got a Guinness and it arrived looking like it was poured by someone who has never poured a Guinness before. We all got waters and they came in massive mugs, which was great. We placed our food order and waited a bit. It definitely took longer than expected since we were the only people there getting food. The kitchen also closed while we were there so we got the last food of the night. We got three appetizers - fried mushrooms, mozzarella sticks, and fried pickles. All three were disappointing, with the mushrooms being the best of the three. They all tasted burned and it was as if the oil they were cooked in hadn't been changed in a while. Some of the mushrooms were just batter with no mushroom inside, and they were all pretty watery. Two people got burgers and fries and they were massive, I don't know how they tasted since no comments were made on it. One person got the chicken strips with fries and they said they were burnt tasting and barely edible even with ranch. One person got boneless wings and said they were just fine, nothing to write home about. Maybe everything tasted burnt because it was the very end of the kitchen's night and they were due for an oil change, but it really put us off our food. The place as a whole was pretty loud because of the TVs. They were all tuned to the same game until that game ended, then some were switched and the rest stayed on the same channel. The bathroom was....unsettling. It was covered in pictures of animals that the owners had hunted and killed. I'm sure there is a certain demographic that loves that kind of thing, but being surrounded by pictures of dead animals being held up by smiling restaurant owners did not make me want to stay. The server was nice but took a while to do the final check-in with us to get us the bill. She kept disappearing to the back and coming back a couple minutes later. I'm visiting from out of town so it's unlikely I would ever be in the position to visit here again, but even if I were a local I think I would scratch this one off the list. read more

Omg! This place is a great find!! I don't know where to start. Give them a try. They have amazing wings. My wife and I came across this place by looking for a place to watch Sunday night football. We tried 4 different wing sauce flavors and my favorite was sweet chili. It was perfectly cooked with a good amount of sauce to flavor. We asked for fries with the wings and they were like home cooked. Nice long pieces that you can tell are not from a frozen bag and not greasy. They got some football special drinks. One of the specials was a michelada with XX. It was well made and also the perfect drink for football games. Staff was super friendly and was joking with us the moment we walked up. Service was great and attentive. It seemed like everybody knew each other and that's a good thing. read more

Amazing chicken wings. The variety and flavors is great. Cold beer and amazing wings. Great atmosphere to watch the game

Headed here to say goodbye to a moving friend. I'll admit in my mind I was picturing a bar I'd go to ten years ago or more and am so GRATEFUL that it wasn't that place. This place is bright and clean and busy. The wings smelled amazing so I had the boneless honey hot. Omg it's a lot of wings and they tasted as good as it smelled. I'd go to this bar more if it wasn't 26 miles away. Check it out. read more

It's a little slice of America in a bar. Hunting, fishing, Idaho potatoes, kareeyoke, wings, beers, trucks, jeans. Came here after 3 hours of open play at pickle ball kingdom. I'm starting to get better. It was only my fourth time playing but I think I held my own on the Advanced 4.0+ court. Looking forward to pickleball next weekend. Watching tape after I finish this review. Might go back to sawtooth. 4 stars read more

BEST WINGS IN PHOENIX! Second time in and the experience was even better than the first time! Happy Hour pricing and specials on drinks. We got the 805 & the Orange Blossom. Crisp, Cold & BOTH great tasting! *Friday's & Saturday's they offer a "buy one get one free": burger deal & those things look killer! Service and staff completely on point! Amber was our server and sweet as ever! When we ordered our wings she said "would you like them grilled too?" "Wait, WHAT! You can do that?! Um-YES"!! Started with the Edamame which is in a sweet spicy soy sauce. Delicious! The wings arrived a short time later & "OMG", the presentation was outstanding and the wings themselves? We were just elated that we ask to speak to the cook! Jessie came out from the kitchen, we had a nice conversation & thanked him. He's such a nice guy! Now, "back to those wings"! They were incredible with that slightly chard exterior flavor that brought them wings to a whole new level! We chose 4 sauces: hot garlic parmesan, regular hot, honey hot & sweet chili. Every flavor was sooooo good, but what we seemed to like the most was the glazed wings, they just kinda stood out with that sweet grilled gusto! YUMMO!! Also: Try the fries with their homemade fry sauce. Many regulars hang here. Friendliest older gentleman came by & greeted every patron in the bar. I thought he was the owner, but came to find out; he's the karaoke king & in his 90's! Then, found out-the owner was one of the hard working staff members named Shelley. Browsed their FB page and plan to follow :) This place offers a lot of fun to their locals and offer promotional / seasonal bar gathers too! This is our new "Go To" place for Wings! Looking forward to trying those burgers and exploring more of the menu! You have to check this place out! It won't disappoint. Supporting our local establishments and supporting our local business owners is a great, great thing! Keep up the awesome work guys! ;) read more

I went here on my own because I wanted to sing and didn't want to go to some other sketchy places I saw out there yikes. This place looked safe and pretty cool from the pics. It's great to see that they have karaoke most of the days of the week. It is pretty busy which is another good sign. Everyone there seemed very welcoming even to me as a newbie. The karaoke guy Phil is so entertaining and a great singer. Keeps the energy up. The use of the app is new to me but very much preferred over the large paper books. I ended up getting the chili because I have to try it everywhere I go. I thought it was pretty good. It seems fresh and made with real ingredients. I would order that every time I go. There are other great menu items as well which I may have to try for a full dinner option one day. I highly recommend this place for food and karaoke. read more

We finally got a chance to go try Shelley's Friday Fish Fry plate! Comes with 3 good sized pieces of cod that are a great balance of batter & fish! Def one of our fav places so far and we've gone to a few in The Valley lol. I appreciate the more than one lemon slice that some places do as this plate came with 3! The fish fry plate also comes with fries, ketchup, their special fry sauce, tartar sauce, and a red vinaigrette. All in all, a great and filling meal! We will be back again! Also side note, the mixed drink is one of Sawtooth's signature drinks, the Sour Patch Kid drink which was very tasty read more

This review is mostly for karaoke night, my friends and I travel in packs of 8 to 15 and we decided to try out this bar karaoke. This location does not take reservations unless you frequent the establishment. We have had a good experience with the food mostly wings they have a delicious assortment of wing sauces all of their fried food Is very good. They have an amazing DJ that cooped in for karaoke at 9 o'clock on Fridays and Saturdays. The karaoke is super fun one day was not very busy so we got to see our hearts out, and the next weekend it was pretty busy so it wasn't as easy to get a song in. The service is really really good gets very very loud it is not a very large place but the bathroom seems clean and there does seem to be some rowdy regulars, but all in all it was all right. read more

The rudest owner EVER! I think she said her name is Shelley. Very unprofessional! Swear words just fly out of her mouth! Filthy restrooms, God only knows what the kitchen looks like.

It doesn't deserve a quarter of a star, Had to check this single star so EVERYONE can see this post and stay away. Health department is definitely going to be notified...

Sawtooth Bar & Grill - Wings, tots and beer - nothing better! - Bars Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

I'll start off by saying I've never gone to Sawtooth for the hospitality or customer service. They are not very welcoming, nor do they go above and beyond to serve you. After speaking to the owner a few times, it makes perfect sense. She's quite angry and unpleasant, and that is the environment she promotes. Every time we've gone in, my wife and I say we're never going back, however, there is one item on the menu that we crave from time to time. Sunday we had that craving, unfortunately the kitchens execution was lacking. Most of our food came out burned and over fried. After mentioning that the food looked burned the server told us that's just the look the batter takes on after being fried, since there is sugar in the breading. Seems reasonable and makes sense, but they were in fact burnt. Like I said we have ordered these many times and these were pretty much inedible. My sisters boneless wings were also burnt and they do not have that breading on them. After mentioning it to the server again, she went and talked to the owner. She came back to tell us that Shelly would not do anything for us, because that's just how they are. Again...I've had these many times, and it's not how they are. If Shelly would have made any effort to come over to the table and acknowledge us, she may have thought differently. Instead she sent her poor server back to deliver the news. I didn't want anything for free, but maybe some more food that was properly cooked. No initiative to remedy the situation was taken, and we left hungry. My expectations were not set very high, but damn, Shelly really drops the ball in every aspect of restaurant service. *Update...your response proves my point exactly. Congrats on learning how to spell your first name. read more

Went there today and what a joke. The bartender (The owner Shelly "lmao owner?! ") was more concerned about stocking the bar then taking care of us. Never greeted us or engaged with us. AND YOU'RE THE OWNER! What a laugh! She even had an attitude when asked about happy hour specials. Verbatim "people that come here aren't looking for specials. They have money." Really? What an asinine comment. Too much attitude and not enough gratitude. Too many choices in Chandler or the east Valley for that matter to patronize this place. People take your business else where. There are a lot more family owned and operated places worthy of your hard earned money. This woman (maybe) doesn't appreciate you! read more

... I wasn't going to write a review- but it keeps popping up. I had heard good things about this place. I was just very put off by a couple of things- I believe the server was also the owner, which is fine, but the bar had several people there and it was evident the server/owner would rather converse with them than give us any type of customer service. When they did finally come to the table, they seemed very put off by us asking about the flavors of the wing sauce. Why not just put it on the menu then?? We're talking very made up names.... lol, how is a new person supposed to know? All in all, I want to check it out again... I want to see what the potato's are like. But it will definitely be a time when hopefully they have more staff. Aside from that, I do like that it seems it is a welcoming environment for people of all walks of life. read more

This place!!! Sooo goood!! I'll be honest I'm not sure there is anything they couldnt make great! My husband and I have been searching around for a good sports bar to watch our games as it is rare Cowboys show on local networks here. We were so pleasantly surprised. The moment we walked in the waitress greeted us and joked around. The regulars bring an energy to the atmosphere that feels like we are all just hanging out. Such friendly staff and good service. We had a XX Michelada and was made to perfection! I had to have 3! Right amount of spice and didn't only taste like clamato. We ordered 2 dz bone in wings with tots and fries to taste a variety. We had lemon pepper, Sweet Chili, Hot, and Stingin Honey Garlic. The skin was crispy, and the chicken juicy on all of them. They were a good size too. Lemon pepper was properly seasoned and was not sour like some places. My husband's favorite was Sweet Chili and mine was Stingin Honey Garlic. None of these were burn your tongue hot..but did not lack any in flavor and kick. Not only did we find our football hangout but we now have our favorite wing place! Hands down.. best wings I've had! Absolutely must try if you like wings! read more
