    Came here on a Sunday morning. It was pretty much empty. There were maybe two other tables. The server was nice and she explained how it worked. The self serve tap room was a new concept to me I've never seen before but so cool. I love that if you didn't want a full drink, you could just fill it up to where you wanted although I wish you could try them before you had to pay for them. We ordered wings in the original flavor, but they ended up coming in Korean barbecue flavor, which was fine but they did take a long time about 45 minutes. The wings were big, but if I were to go back, I don't think I would get food again.

    Went here for a special event. Great ambiance. We were given a bracelet that allows you to tap and pour your own glass. I don't like beer but tried and enjoyed a Strawberry Mojito cider. I also enjoyed their wings (which had a kick) and French fries. I would definitely go back to this spot. It's a vibe.

    I came here while visiting my best friend. I really liked the set up of the spot. There was a big inside seating area and an outdoor seating area. We were a group of 7 so we ended up sitting outside. It was a little time consuming to check in and out since we were all on separate tabs but it was really easy for us to get what we want. I'm not a huge beer/cider drinker, so i only got 4 oz of a sour and it came out to be $5 which i think it pretty solid. They tvs outside and inside and also board games and couches to hang out on.

    The young man acting as the host/server was very polite and checked in regularly. Of course, I was the only person inside for about 30 minutes... The fresh donuts were awesome. Also, much larger than I anticipated...I made it through three... Several of the taps were not functional or empty. Review would have been a star higher if this hadn't been an issue.

    Pay per ounce of your beverage.

    They have beer and wine. The place is clean and our server was kind and quick to take our empty glasses.

    Birria tacos
    Dennys J.

    This place is great, these birria tacos they have are amazing which is unusual for a drinking place. We also love the tapping thing, drinks are really good and my husband who is into beers loves it too because of the great variety they always have. We have been here several times and will Continue to come

    Steak, egg, and cheese sandwich
    Sam V.

    The food and service were great. We got the Steak, Eggs, and Cheese Sandwich, Eggs Benedict, and the Classic Breakfast. Everything was tasty, I especially liked the breakfast potatoes. Tap That is friendly and welcoming.

    Hosted my 49th birthday party here and it did not disappoint! The food was incredible, the drinks were on point, and the staff was amazing from start to finish. They made the whole night effortless and fun. Such a great vibe--can't wait to come back!

    Host stand, get your keycard there
    Natasha A.

    This place is pretty cool. You get to sample local breweries (and wineries) all in one place by using a keycard to tap each choice which will then release into your glass. Even if you just want a tiny pour to try it all or you can do full glasses, the amount is up to you! Your keycard will then record the amount and you close your tab at the end at the hostess stand.

    Enjoying the patio on a perfect Saturday morning.

    We love this little jam in downtown Phoenix. It's been here for a few years. I always enjoy their staff and the great selection of beers and wines. When we have the opportunity, we always try and stop in.

    Braised pork sandwich
    Gayl B.

    Review is based solely on the food delivered to me at the Greenwood Brewery next door. I was pleasantly surprised that my braised pork rib sandwich had a spicy kick to it. This is a flavorful sandwich. The fries were thick and perfectly cooked. This menu is offered at the Greenwood Brewery while we were playing trivia on a Tuesday evening. I'm going to using Tap That again for my dinner on Tuesdays!

    Great portions! Not too much food, just enough to feel full. The server was nice and helpful. The drinks weren't bad and neither was the price! Got a good amount of drinks for a reasonable price. We did go during happy hour but we would go again even if it wasn't. Too bad we're 4 hours away!

    Veggie flatbread
    Michelle O.

    This place had a nice little vibe to it. I wish they had more selection of beers and wine. A lot of beers were out when I went there. As for the food. It was ok. Typical bar food. The boneless wings though were pretty salty. It was just so salty. I wouldn't get them again. Overall our visit here was ok.

    No, not really. It's like a self-serve bar. Good for date night!! ... without the kids. Leave them at home, with a babysitter.

We ordered an American Burger, a Shroom Burger, and a Big Mack salad (chopped lettuce dressed with thousand Island, topped with two hamburger patties, cheese, pickle, and sesame seeds). We really liked the burgers and salad a lot. The buns are so good. We got fries, and they were nothing to write home about. Drinks are sold in the can, and there is a big variety to choose from. The menu here is quite large and there is plenty to choose from, no matter what you're in the mood for. FYI--they win 2025 Best of The Valley!

We both got the curried corn bisque for the app and my oh my I greatly enjoyed this even on a hotter day. The Smokey popcorn was a nice textural addition and the soup was so flavorful, the curry definitely shined through! We also both got the fried chicken for entrees; how could I not order the gluten free fried chicken!? Yes, naturally gluten free! This was outstanding. I'm not sure what the coating is, but it was so so flavorful and so crispy, and the chicken still so juicy. I could eat that on its own. The pepper jems were a cute touch! The mashed potatoes were so creamy. The chicken was placed on top of them so the bottom of the chicken did get soggy so my one suggestion is to place the chicken to the side, but the coating did rub into the potatoes which added some more flavor. The green beans were also tasty, nothing special, but the pistachio butter elevated it (nothing else needed the pistachio butter, not sure what else you use it for). I had a chocolate cake for dessert, the only gluten free dessert they offered me, but I still appreciate the option. It was just okay. The cake was dense and a little dry and didn't scream rich chocolate. There was a chocolate mousse layered in which helped. My boyfriend had some sort of strawberry cake mousse thing with layers of many different things - he thought it okay, I tried the mousse part and really liked it. We had red wine and it was delicious! The service was great, very attentive and they packed some ice in a cup for me because we weren't going home after!

Best Bolognese in town in my opinion. The staff was more than accommodating.

This was years ago, before the speakeasy existed. I remember we were greeted at the table with glasses of champagne. Service was impeccable, food was delicious. We had one of the best desserts of our lives. 10/10 first impression. We went back maybe a year later after the speakeasy was built in, and it seemed like all their attention went to that instead. They were out of a bunch of dishes on the menu. I remember we all got our food except for my husband and we finally had to ask the server what was going on with his dish and that's when they told us they were out of that dish he had ordered too. They offered to make something else on the house, but at this point we were all almost done with our food so he ended up with nothing. They did try to make it right, I'll give them that, but it was a weird experience. We decided to give the restaurant one last try for my mom's birthday over the weekend and it solidified our opinions on this place. First of all, it's EXPENSIVE. I get it's Scottsdale but they are trying way too hard with $80 ribeyes and $1500 bottles of wine, but not giving you anything for it. Don't get me wrong, I'll enjoy an expensive meal when I feel it's warranted. The food, service, details need to go above and beyond to justify my $500+ tab. That's just not the case here. The server didn't do anything out of the ordinary. Didn't even offer a birthday dessert? We ordered salads before our meals and our entrees showed up two minutes later. My sister had her leftover pasta boxed up and they never brought it back. She asked about it and they said they could fire her a new one, but we were ready to go at this point. These are not issues you should be having at an upscale restaurant at this price point. After all this, we won't be returning. There are much better restaurants at lesser price points that offer amazing food with above and beyond experience. Everyone try Restaurant Progress instead!

From the moment we arrived, the restaurant had such great vibes. There was also a subtle, almost secretive animal theme throughout the space that added a really cool touch. The hostess and waitstaff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and accommodating. The drinks were good, but the food was definitely the star. The milk bread was absolutely delicious, and the pibil dumplings were also really good. My only complaint is that they only came with three pieces, which felt a little expensive for the portion. The beef tartare was another standout. It was delicious on its own and paired really well with the banana chip, which added a nice contrast in texture and flavor. I would probably skip the white oak grilled skewers, though. They were pretty burnt, and unfortunately, they didn't really stand out to me compared to the other dishes. The ribeye was cooked to absolute perfection. We asked if they could prepare the two halves of the ribeye at different temperatures since my wife prefers her steak closer to medium, and they were more than happy to accommodate us.
