    Taco Pizza
    Carlos C.

    First time visit, and will be back! Good atmosphere and great food! Started with the fried cauliflower bites and they did not disappoint. The fish and chips were very good, as was the pepperoni pizza (my nephew gave it a thumbs up!) We also ordered the ribs (delicious), wings, taco pizza and camelback club. Check em out!

    I really like how they have upgraded this restaurant! The food is so much better and it's such a good place to go to to watch a game! The espresso martinis and Arcadia burger were so good! Definitely the burger you want if you're craving one!

    One of the best sports bar experiences I've had in a long time. The place is huge -- crazy high ceilings, a giant two sided bar and a separate outdoor-ish covered patio with a totally different (cozier) vibe --- but somehow still feels welcoming and chill. Maybe it was the great service we got at the bar and the really good happy hour specials we stuffed our faces with while watching Monday Night Football. The place feels a bit higher level than your average sports bar, food-wise: our margherita pizza came out just the way we like it, tavern style; a nicely sauced, not overly cheesy and very thin crust round pizza cut into small squares. It was just the ticket to go with our bottle of wine. There are dozens of TV screens big and small scattered around the place to watch games on, and the massive outside patio sports actual comfy booths and tables to sit at -- not just lawn furniture. Our bartender delivered super service all the way through. We will be back.

    Fried pickles

    We stopped in for Monday night football and had a nice experience. There really isn't a bad place to sit if you want to watch the games. TV's are everywhere inside and out. Unfortunately with the weather, we weren't able to sit outside as most of the TV's were covered due to the rain but it looks like they have a great patio. I didn't catch our server's name but she was excellent. Constantly checked on us and never left us waiting. We ordered the fried pickles to start. They were crispy and delicious. They come with a side of ranch. Next we ordered The Arcadian Pizza which is thin crust with provolone & mozzarella, red sauce, pepperoni, sausage, onion. A nice crispy crust and flavorful. We also ordered the Baby Back ribs. Slow roasted baby back ribs, choice of side. We ordered the Mac & cheese. Super flavorful ribs and fall off the bone. Drinks were also prepared well and we felt prices were reasonable. We will definitely be back to try the smash burgers.

    Cornbread appetizer
    Michelle C.

    I recently went to dinner here on a Monday night. We had a very friendly server. She was very knowledgeable about the food and drink menus and was very attentive. We had the cornbread as a starter. It was warm, flavorful, and came with honey and an apple butter. Delicious! We also had the fish n chips and Arcadia smash burger. They were very tasty and the fries had good seasoning. The atmosphere was brighter abd decor was better than previous restaurant in this location. It's a great place to catch a game as well. We will be back.

    Inside, multiple tvs for games

    Great space to watch football. Great attentive staff, great food options and large draft beer selection. Vegan and Veg options. Brunch on the weekends. Reasonability priced. From original Arcadia tavern.

    Taco Pizza...how is it this good?
    Dustin H.

    Probably the best place to watch football or any sports in the valley. Food was awesome, 65 inch TV'S everywhere you look, everything a sports bar should be and more. Shout out to Paulina for awesome down to earth service! This place makes other similar places look sad lol. Definitely coming back, looking forward to coming back!

    OBSESSED!! This is the sports bar that Arcadia needed! I love the dog friendly patio, all the tvs for football! The smash burgers and pizza are so good! Service is always friendly and attentive! Love this new spot!

    Cornbread
    Desiree D.

    If you remember this location back when it was a Cold Beers & Cheeseburgers, you should definitely give the Original Arcadia Tavern a try. They've kept that fun, good sports bar and restaurant vibe, but with a great refresh. We went for dinner and were able to get a table right away. Our server was good and attentive all night, and the food was spot-on: we started with the cornbread appetizer, which was tasty and moist, and my steak tips were cooked perfectly medium rare. It's a reliable, solid place for dinner and catching a game

    Steak tips: marinated filet tips, spicy mustard sauce, signature sauce
    Joy T.

    Here for UFC fight. Very packed but fun atmosphere. Choice of shareable was very tasty! Assorted beers. Bartenders are super sweet amd personable. Definitely a great place to drink and watch a game. Happy this has returned back in my neighborhood. Downside, parking is limited so either lyft, valet or park across the street.

    Food menu - September 2025

    This replaced a Cold Beers and Cheeseburgers and it seems very similar on the inside but the food was a lot better. There are still plenty of TVs to watch the game from any seat and a lot of drinks to choose from. We started with the skillet cornbread and it was really delicious. With the apple butter and honey it was basically a dessert and a lot of cornbread for 2 people. I got a steak salad and really enjoyed it. The steak was cooked nicely and not chewy like some steak salads tend to be and all the ingredients made it seem more like a steak bowl than just a salad. The service here was also better and faster than it was for the prior place that was here. I'll definitely be back.

    Went for a football game and sat on the patio. Great vibe. Service and friendly staff. It was very full but the wait staff was very professional. The valet staff was only 2 stars but everything else was 5 stars. We shared a Caesar salad and a couple of apps. Delicious. And to boot, it is my neighbor tavern. Also dog friendly patio.

We ordered their flourless chocolate cake for dessert and it was the best thing we had all night! Overall, the taste was not bad but for the time that we waited and the hype this place received, it fell short of our expectations and would probably not come back due to this. Next time, we would try visiting their other Phoenix location where they accept reservations instead.

    Amazing, unique experience!…read more I arrived with the preconceived ideas about being jostled in long lines in a poorly cooled pizza joint, sitting in a crowded restaurant at plastic tables eating plastic food. That misconception disappeared immediately upon stepping through the doorway. Warm, inviting ambiance, full of character. Attending the birthday celebration for an esteemed young man, our table wasn't ready (we were early) and the hostess offered us seats at the bar while awaiting our party. We each had a wine spritzer... may I say that the very few such concoctions I've had bearing that name didn't do justice to what we were served. I've never had anything like this, a "Sgroppino" (I'm partial to strawberry!) and it was perhaps the best adult beverage I've had in a very long time. Many different nuances in a glass. Stunning subtle, many diverse flavors. Mmm. Our bartender was an artist of the mixed adult beverage, a delightful individual with a warm, genuine smile and an encyclopedic knowledge of how to do his job expertly. Rare that you meet someone like this who isn't all measuring cups and shot glasses: everything he concocted was done by eye, and judging by what he made for us, his expertise was immediately apparent. Ben fatto. È andata benissimo, brava. When we'd all arrived, we were escorted to the "garden shed"... a smaller out-building filled with racks of wine, perhaps an ideal place for small wedding receptions or engagement parties. Well-cooled despite our broiling Phoenix evening. We had the garlic bread; someone ordered IL Tagliere, Calamari (no, thank you), and a basket of bread. You know how you go to a hamburger joint and what you're served looks nothing like the photos of their menu? Go to CiBO's web site and look at their menu: What you see in their photos is what you get. One visit and next time you look at their menu online, you'll salivate. Yes, the food is that good. I ordered the calzone. Delicious. Getting through it wasn't pretty... but it was excellent. Huge, very generous entree. Excellent flavors. Our server was delightful, attentive without being a nuisance. Our water glasses never reached empty, and the stories about the birthday boy (and others) were never interrupted. We never made it to desserts. Too much food and amusing stories. CiBO: È andata benissimo, brava.

    Lil Capo Pizzeria 5.0/5 The Closest Thing to New York…read morePizza I've Found in Arizona Growing up in Upstate New York, I admittedly have high standards when it comes to pizza. After moving to Arizona in 2007, I've spent years searching for a slice that genuinely reminds me of home. While there are plenty of decent pizza spots throughout the Valley, very few capture that authentic New York style. Lil Capo Pizzeria absolutely does! Ironically, I first discovered Lil Capo after an Arizona Cardinals game. Like many people, I wasn't interested in paying stadium prices for mediocre food, so I jumped on Yelp looking for something nearby. Lil Capo had outstanding reviews, so we decided to give it a try. I'm glad we did because it's now my benchmark for New York-style pizza in Arizona. The first thing that stood out was the crust. This is exactly what a New York slice should be--thin, crispy on the bottom, slightly chewy inside, sturdy enough to fold, and never overloaded with grease. So many places think "New York style" simply means making a large slice. Lil Capo understands it's really about the balance of crust, sauce, cheese, and texture. Every bite reminded me why I miss pizza back east. The sauce has just the right amount of sweetness and acidity, the cheese is perfectly proportioned, and everything tastes fresh without trying to reinvent what already works. Sometimes simplicity executed well is the hardest thing to accomplish. Pizza: 5/5 Service was equally impressive. The staff was welcoming, friendly, and efficient. After selecting our slices, they quickly reheated them to perfection and had them on our table within minutes. It's exactly what you want from a neighborhood pizzeria--fast, relaxed, and genuinely hospitable. Service: 5/5 I also appreciated the atmosphere. Lil Capo isn't trying to be flashy or trendy. Instead, it has that classic neighborhood pizzeria feel where the focus stays exactly where it should--on making outstanding pizza. It's casual, comfortable, family-friendly, and somewhere you could easily become a regular. The pricing is another pleasant surprise. Considering the quality of the pizza and the generous slice sizes, I found everything to be very fairly priced. Overall Finding authentic New York-style pizza in Arizona has been surprisingly difficult over the years, but Lil Capo delivers exactly what I've been searching for. Authentic New York-style crust Excellent sauce-to-cheese ratio Minimal grease Friendly, efficient service Fair prices Comfortable neighborhood atmosphere I've eaten pizza throughout New York my entire life, and Lil Capo remains the closest I've found to the real thing anywhere in Arizona. Whenever I'm on the west side of the Valley--or heading to or from a Cardinals game--I find myself looking for an excuse to stop in. Next time, I'm skipping the slices and ordering an entire pie. If you're a fellow New Yorker living in Arizona and craving a slice that tastes like home, Lil Capo should be at the top of your list.

    World-class pizza in AZ!…read more I have traveled the world and had many Pizzas, and this is hands-down one of the best pizza places I've ever experienced. Tucked away in the Westgate Mall, it's a compact, modern little spot that likely gets buzzing during the lunch hour. The service is excellent--you just order at the counter and they bring the pizza out to you. If you're in the area, do not pass this up. We'll absolutely be returning on our next trip to Arizona!
