Food is great: The staff is amazing. Reason why we come here. Ray and Lauren and the best!

We were looking for pizza and wings. Ended up at Tailgaters. The service was amazing. Our bartender's, (Derrick and Taylor), were so nice and changed my drinks to something more palatable to my taste with no complaint. The atmosphere was fun. The place was very clean! So excited we walked into my new favorite pizza joint!! Oh and the beer selection was top notch. And the most critical man I know about wings and pizza, (my fiance) says..."Whaaaa! This place comes CORRECT! NO BS. These guys have pizza, wings, and craft beer down pat. No breaded ass BS wings. Old school style. Pizza is spot on also." read more

Good cheese curds! Yes, this is a sports bar - please know if there are major games on TV adults enjoying beverages may not watch their language. Waitress staff was extremely attentive while slammed on a Saturday night. read more

Cool environment to catch a game or a fight. Management sucks. Wait staff is poorly trained. Tried to stick me with someone else bill just because we sat in a large group at some point during the evening. Told me it was my problem. I showed my tab and they agreed I paid my part but since the other $20 of food was in our group I was responsible about it. The manager than proceeded to start up again in the parking lot while we were leaving. Sad. Very poorly handled by this company. Lakeside Bar & Grill will be getting all of our game day business now. read more

Went to Tailgaters, Peoria to watch Loyola/Michigan game yesterday. Had reservation for party of 8. When I arrived I spoke to Alyssa and she pointed to the booth reserved for my group. Asked if we could be moved to a better spot for watching the game and she offered what I thought was the best spot in the whole restaurant. I thought the service was great and my loaded potato skins were perfect. However other members of the group were not so happy with the service. Although no one complained about the food, when it came time to get our individual checks, we waited, and waited and waited. The wait was so long that the manager was called over. This was a big downside (and the fact that Loyola lost) to the whole experience. Service was poor but the food was excellent and the place is truly a sports bar with multiple screens for watching all the sporting events of the day. read more

Best pub ever. Multiple reasons but tonight's is to recognize the error in my carry out pizza. I was asked if "somebody" would consume the error. I was like F'ueah. I will. They express made me another correct pie in 8 mins. Highly recommend. I already know the food is good, this is a tip of the hat to service. Thank you. read more

Stopped for dinner with a group of 10 people. Drinks where ordered but after 20 minutes they never showed so we left, didn't even return. Only reason I'm giving 2 stars is it was a busy evening and I'm not a psychopath like many reviewers . read more

Great neighborhood bar/restaurant. It's a large place. Lots if tv's. We've tried their pizza and several sandwiches. All have been good tasting. We even had take out from there the other day. read more

I have been coming up to Tailgaters for several years and have always enjoyed the good food and friendly courteous staff. That is until today! My wife ordered A baked ziti and a calzone to go and was asked if she wanted the salad with the baked ziti my wife asked if The salad came with it and was told yes. She asked if that was a special because it's usually about three dollars more before on the menu we thought. He said yes and there would be no additional charge for that. When I went to pick it up that changed! Ashley, the "manager" at that time said the salad would be an up charge And that the person my wife talk to was new., Which is fine, however when your told something on the phone by an employee I would expect the company to honor that price. Instead Ashley said she would have to take the salad off or charge me extra. I didn't realize it was only a matter of like a little over a dollar difference but would not just say we were wrong and that the saladi would be as we were told free. It's the principle of the matter that offends me here, not the amount. If you told something by a company you expect them to Honor and live by that price that you quoted not change it on you when you get there. You lost a customer fora little over $1.00 as a result of that mess. It could've been so easy if you're done the right thing and just honored what we were told. Whatever happened to the customer is always right.? I'm not trying to take advantage of anybody just trying to get what I came to get for the price that I was quoted. I really enjoy your food there but that kind of action by Ashly was not acceptable. I really like everyone there and as I said the food is great but that was very irritating and uncalled for. I hope that Ashley does learn in time that being congenial with a customer pays off not rubbing them in the wrong direction read more

Been coming here since they opened. Always good service and never disappointed with the food. A zillion tv's and all your favorite sports on. Nice contemporary music not to loud in the background. My favorite post shopping grub and Sunday football spot read more

Love this sports bar and I'm not even a sports fan! It has amazing pizza and really good service. The environment is kind of loud, which I take is great for those cheering on their team. Highly recommend! read more

Always great food and great service. If you like sports they have an ample amount of TVs. Great selection of beer to boot.

I just ordered the all you can eat fish fry. I was not allowed any additional Fry's or coleslaw. And then I was charged .99 to order more fish... so not really all you can eat huh. read more

April G. Is a ridiculous person. Several customers? It's just her. Nobody was complaining about the audio on soccer. It's not even loud. Are you a super hero where everything is amplified? This is a sports bar, and an excellent one at that. Food is good, management is accommodating, and they don't cram the tables together so you actually have space to enjoy yourself. I never do reviews but this place treated us so well i felt compelled. First time here and I'll be back. read more

Went here with the family (12) for Father's Day. The food was decent but the service was terrible. We don't plan on going back. I wish I could rate lower than one star. read more

Excellent food, staff and drinks. This is a very nice neighborhood restaurant and sports bar. We go all the time and never have been disappointed. The whole staff is great. read more

Jesse is by far the best bartender. We ensure our visits coincide with his work schedule. So attentive, he remembers our drink preference, always positive. He's great!! read more

I want to make this clear, my issue is not with the establishment as a whole. Only one specific "expediter" and the manager, Donnie. With that being said I would like to start with the good. My server, Savanna, was awesome. She advised that it was her second day on the job and she was incredibly nervous. I would be too if I were serving six hungry basketball enthusiasts. Despite her inexperience she was still amazing. Very attentive and always made sure our beverages were full. The food was delicious. It came out somewhat promptly and HOT... (and here lies the problem...) The expediter brought out my boyfriend's food. My boyfriend, hoping to assist, reached out to grab the plate and was instantly burned. After his obvious injury the expediter felt it would be best to advise us that the plate was hot (way to state the obvious). My boyfriend was in a great amount of pain and initially the only thing that was offered was a cup of ice. I requested to speak to the manager and he made it very clear that our issue wasn't his priority. He came to the table, offered to give him some burn gel, and then swiftly ran off to "change TVs). I was irate. I flagged the manager down again. He came over, this time visibly frustrated, to see what I wanted. I thanked him for the gel, but I advised that was the least that could be done. He then went on to tell me that his employee told him that he had warned us about the hot plate (which was true, but the warning came after the injury had taken place). He agreed to comp our meal and gave us two $10 coupons for a future meal. Upon further review of the coupons I realized that they expired in 2016. In any industry it is imperative to make the customer feel like a priority. They may not always be right (don't tell them that) but they should always feel important. My issue with Donnie was that he 1. made it clear that we weren't important, and 2. called us liars. I didn't need a free meal or expired coupons. I just wanted to feel cared about in this situation. Thankfully my boyfriend did not have to seek medical attention. Think twice before trying this establishment. read more

Awesome Pizza & a great place to post up at the bar and watch games. I recommend the BBQ Chicken Pizza!!! Amazing.

The server Ashley was great! Potato chips off my wife's plate were good and warm when served. My meal wasn't as expected and an attempt to fix the problem was made and it helped. Even after hinting that I would've mentioned to a manager I didn't see a manager. Not saying we will not be back but will not be at the top of our list as a meal destination, if in the area we might on a whim to see if this visit was out of character for the restaurant. As we were leaving the Manager did come up to me and I shared my experience and made my suggestions and he invited me back to give another try. I'll be re-visit. read more

I've been here ..Peoria location..many times and can't say a bad word. Food has always Been very good. Drinks are tasty and the beer is always always cold. Staff is very professional and friendly and so are all the people that enjoy going there as well. One of the best sports Bar/ restaurant in Arizona! It's always fun! I highly recommend Friday night fish fries and the salads are good size, cold and crisp! Sunday sports are Tops with tons of TV's and a whole wall projection TV WOW! read more

Walk in and greeted by a girl with a nasty teenage-like attitude... "Do you need help?!"  I shook her attitude off, smiled and said "Four for dinner please." She walked over to a sign and pointed her broom handle at it, exclaimed "Seat yourself!" and walked away.  Wow, rude! Our waiter acted less than thrilled to be working. Never asked us how we were doing, how the food was, etc.  Just asked "need some boxes?"... No personality. Never smiled. Too worried about cleaning and moving tables around. Table of 4 by us dropped the F bomb every other sentence. Food was just okay. Fries were soggy, not cold, but definitely not hot. My guys liked the pizza and wings. Overall, bad experience. We go out to get away from negativity, to relax, have great food and good service. Or at least that is a hopeful expectation. This experience was stressful, not relaxing or enjoyable at all. We Always tip well when wait staff is at least friendly... What happened to working for a tip? What happened to customer service? Not sure why some millenials feel they deserve a tip without providing good service. Or feel it is alright to be disrespectful. All I am thinking ig is entitlement. So disappointing. Thought it would be fun going out. What a waste of time and money. I hope the wait staff gets custimer service training. read more

Great food and service! Although this is a restaurant and "bar" Tailgaters is very family friendly. We have had many different items off of the menu and have never been disappointed but their pizza is definitely my favorite! Many beers on tap and an expansive menu of homemade dishes has made this place one of our families favorites! read more

I don't ever do this!!! However, I'm going to blast Tailgaters Il'Primo on Lake Pleasant right now, and let everyone know that the .management that runs this establishment treats their employees like SHIT & has the worst service on the planet. They have zero respect for the their customers as well as the people they employ. Please don't ever give them your business!!! Your reputation speaks volumes and if you don't have enough integrity to handle your business the right way than you get what you get Larry. read more

I like coming here for pizza and wings. I come in and get the pizza and wing special. The pizza crust is not too thin and has a good taste. We get the boneless wings for the kids (chicken nuggets). I prefer the bone in ones but then I have to eat them all myself. They have a great selection of beer and lots of tvs to watch. This is one of our regular places to come eat. They have other items on the menu but mostly we get the pizza. read more

This place is piece of shit. I sat there for about 10 minutes. At the bar! Never got acknowledged by Mr Man Bun. Apparently whatever was going on in the corner was more important that his bartender duties. So I said fuck it and left. On my way out I was told by staff at take out window to have a good night. My retort was simply, "How when I never got served?". If you are desperate to waste your money....Send me a PayPal. Don't go here though! read more

So here's the deal. Most of the bartenders are amazing. The beer selection is amazing. Many of the servers are amazing. Plenty of the cook staff is amazing. Honestly, this place has tons going for it. Except the owner decided that only bad music is allowed in the place. Even if you pay for it, you still cannot get good music. See once upon a time some old bastard complained blah, blah, blah and the owner over.the.hell.reacted and blocked all the music you would want at a bar from playing. And right there...the music died. If they would only fix that, they would get on par with bars in the area...until they walk with a limp. read more

Everyone wants a place to watch the favorite ufc fight, football game, baseball game.. ect... Many TVs enough to go around. The food is basic house meals all stuff u could do your self and probably make better pizza need a lot of work basic dough doesn't make it very far ... Wings are dry and can be changes .. Grill items are over done or Lil under cooked... To order a beer it takes 20 minutes... read more

Really nice place, layout and location. Great happy hour specials. Service is hit or miss. Table service is generally better than bar service and some of the (female) bar tenders act like they're doing you a favor to wait on you... lazy and incompetent... But other than that we like the place. So avoid the crowds and try sitting at a high top instead of @ the bar. Cheers! read more

Just want to thank Maddie for totally making me feel comfortable after accidentally leaving Friday with out paying tab. Came in Monday and couldn't have been treated nicer. Thx Nick read more

If you like being overcharged then then this is your place! We were overcharged for 2 rounds ifs shots! Not I know what your thinking but no we were not drunk! This place was trying to just make money and over charge!!!! I confronted the manager and he stated he was correct and so was Hit bartender. I asked to looked at the tape as his bartender suggested and he said he didn't have the time. This place is full of liars and bullshitters!!! Don't run a tab and don't trust your service!! read more

TAILGATERS LAKE PLEASANT DRIVE This is a great bar for football and family the downside is that the manager is an absolute DICK On two occasions just 3 weeks apart he imposed his " I'M IN CHARGE" attitude Case number 1 : After we asked a server (nicely) if a table should open up in the bar, we'd be interested He immediately came over and rudely told us to put our names down which we already had done My 90 year old grandma even stated that the guy was short, rude and bossy!! Tonight, yet again we sat at a location with 2 tables which usually has 4 seats each He left us with only 4 seats after joined them together saying he could not break apart the 4 seat high tops HELLO......!!!!! We needed 8 seats in our party High tops with 4 chairs x's 2 equals 8!!!! Other customers were more than happy to share a seat or two after hearing the exchange One even stated that he'd had a similar experience a few weeks ago after moving 2 tables together with the same guy ( Rick is this guys name...white hair and wears gray most of the time) Not sure if anybody else has encountered this , but after asking the others in our party if this guy was just an asshole,,,,all concurred immediately and all were laughing at how a " person in charge can act this way towards customers" We tipped well, treated our server nicely as we have in the past Just a matter of time before this guy runs the loyal and faithful customers to another place..... #tailgaterbossestakenote! Happy to go elsewhere ! #treatloyalcustomerswithrespect! #Egoseatbrains!!! read more

Good pub food and great spot for sports options on TV. But sloooooooow on the kitchen/front house side. If you come for lunch, don't be in a hurry. read more

Took an hour and twenty minutes (80 minutes) to have one pizza delivered. My home is 1 mile away, door to door. Pizza arrived cold. Took approx 10 minutes just to order the food as the girl taking my order was in serious need of more training. I was happy to support a new local business and to say I am disappointed is an understatement. I guess it is one and done for this place. read more

Julie is AMAZING! Drinks perfect, conversation perfect. It's the service you want! I will definitely be back because of her. I will definitely be back to see her again! She makes this place. This is the place to be people! YUM, YUM! read more

My fiancé, I and a couple friends from work came in for a few drinks, Sunday night after work and the bartender we had was awful!! So incredibly rude, I asked her for a lemons, she brought me limes,m. I was totally ok with it and respectfully corrected her, then she brings me a cup full of lemons, slams it down on the bar and rolls her eyes as she walks away! I wish I had caught her name! Anytime we asked for more drinks, she rolled her eyes as if it was a huge inconvenience that our drinks were empty. If ever I come back and see that this woman is working, I will not stay! read more

Update on previous post for Tailgaters on Lake Pleasant. This has become one of our regular stops for lunch. Extensive menu of consistent, yummy offerings, reasonably priced...even a schedule of specials like two for one burgers on Wednesdays. All this is great, but what sets this place apart for us is the superior service from bartender Stacy. Simply said: She gets it. It's so nice to be welcomed by a genuine pro who not only remembers your name, but also remembers your preferences. Completely delightful and keeps Tailgaters on our short list of 'go-to' favorites. read more

Great setup, location and menu! Service was terrible! Food delivery was slow. They need to train their staff better, not friendly or attentive. Jen our server acted put out every time we asked for something, this after us having to call her over because she would never stop by. Food was good but bad service ruined it! read more

While I find the food quite good I could not have been more freaked out when I was screamed at by last nights manager and was told that I should never, ever call there again. I am and elderly woman who lives alone and suffers from PTSD. I sat here crying. Not very cool. I also asked for the phone number of the owner and they would not give it to me. wow read more

I enjoy their wings even if a tad small, they are always cooked well. The pizza is subpar. We ordered three times for delivery and they completely messed up the third time. I guess it can happen but when we called to have it fixed they put us on hold multiple times, finally said they would correct it but never arrived to actually fix it. We called after another hour and they yet again put us on hold. We waited 5 minutes on hold a manager answered and said yet a different manager would call us back. Guess what, we never heard back and went to bed hungry. We gave up not only on this order but on the establishment. Too many other places that deliver to us that hasn't messed up in dozens of orders. They clearly have no regard for customers and will lie to avoid speaking to them. read more
