    Great service, fun atmosphere and solid happy hour menu. Not too far from the parking garage, which made it even better! Would definitely come back again!

    This place is definitely gives hipster vibes,with dim lighting and eccentric decor! I enjoyed every visual detail of Uncommon. I went for a late happy hour, and the server was friendly and bubbly. She helped with drink choices and made recommendations. I didn't order any food as I went for drinks only. It's a casual place but good for any attire and it was Thursday so they also had a live performer which is nice to see and experience.

    Showed up to the Uncommon never before hearing about it, so I had 0 expectations. It was a Saturday night so it was a bit busy, nothing like OT scottsdale, but they have a couple pool tables and some arcade games in the back. It is a bit difficult to order drinks if you're at the pool tables or in the back with the games, but all the drinks were pretty typical, nothing crazy, but not bad. Our waitress was kind, but she was attending to a large birthday party so it was a bit difficult to find her to order drinks or close out a tab. The bar is quite over stimulating with lots of neon colors and lights, but definitely gives off the arcade vibe that they're going for.

    We stopped in here on a Sunday late afternoon and was greeted by Thea -- she was absolutely awesome! She showed us the game room, walked us through the menu, helped customize a couple drinks for us, and gave appetizer suggestions. Super friendly, bubbly, and fun to chat with -- definitely ask for her when you go (she's moving into bartending, though ). The food was so good! I had the citrus salad with grilled chicken -- perfectly cooked and full of flavor -- and my date had the Chicken Honey Hot Cluck sandwich... also amazing! The music and atmosphere were great, and the game room is such a fun bonus -- photo booth, pool table, darts, the works. All around, great vibe, great service, and great food. Can't wait to come back!

    Trying some drinks from the drink menu... this is just like a dirty Shirley temple

    Stopped in here on a random Monday to eat an early dinner with the fam. It was dead. There was only one other table and they were gone within 5 minutes of us sitting. The atmosphere is fun. The music is loud, something my kids complained about constantly. There are lots of games to play, but you do have to buy a play card and put the money on it. The food came out quick and was pretty good. We did order drinks from the special drink menu, which changes regularly. They were good tasting, but had no hint of alcohol in either one, even though they were supposed to be made with vodka. Little disappointing to pay so much for a drink and feel like you are drinking a Shirley temple. They do not have a big menu and there were not a lot of vegetarian options. Overall, it was an ok experience but I wouldn't go back.

    A group of us met here immediately post retirement and enjoyed it immensely. I had a Reuben with crinkle cut fries. It's a common dish executed perfectly. The marbled rye was bold and savory. The corned beef was hot, ever so crispy on the edges with a perfect amount of dressing. Delicious. The fries were lightly salted golden fried happiness. The bartender was quick to take orders, refill drinks and took care of us. Loved the place. We played pool and arcade games, all in all it was a great place to while away the afternoon. Will definitely return.

    Cute seating.

    Arcade Game Fact: "The iconic game "Space Invaders" caused a coin shortage in Japan when it was released in 1978. Taito's hit incorporated relentless alien invasion gameplay, capturing players' imaginations and causing real-world coin shortages as enthusiasts flocked to arcades, making it an iconic moment in gaming history." ― bitvint.com The Uncommon is a restaurant, bar, arcade, and entertainment venue in downtown Chandler Arizona. We're talking games, live music, and a cherry limeade cocktail!? Yes! After having some beer and bites at another DT Chandler establishment, we popped in for some fun and games. While we didn't order any food, although the menu looks promising, we did order some drinks to sip on while perusing the selection of games. I chose a cherry limeade cocktail, which tasted mainly of like grenadine. I was hoping for a more balanced drink, but it was fine. It helped me with my basketball, darts, and skeeball game. I even won a tiny rubber duck! It's a great place to go if you're into playing arcade games. It's not the biggest selection but you'll still have fun!

    Cool vibes, good music and plenty of screens to watch the games or play games. They cater to customers here!!

    First time at The Uncommon but it won't be the last! Ask for Thea she was fantastic-super welcoming and made several suggestions on the menu-- the Honey Hot Cluck with Kellogg Kornflake crusted fried chicken was spot on-even made a few custom drinks to accommodate our preferences. We also chose the Citrus Salad with chicken and it was a tasty treat. If you want a great meal with service like you are a long time local...come check out The Uncommon and try and get Thea as your service or she might be the bartender. You'll get top notch friendly service with a smile!

    Uptown Burrito
    Emily H.

    Huge restaurant with arcade games and pool! There's also plentiful TVs to watch sports. I got the Uptown Burrito from the brunch menu and it was good, but needed some seasoning for the filet mignon. The meat was a bit chewy. The chipotle sauce that it comes with is okay, not to my tasting. It also comes with side potatoes as well and I chose the party potatoes which has melted cheese on it. The service was on point considering we had a huge party for brunch.

    Cool bathroom!

Unfortunately, that's about where the positives end. If you're coming for the food or the service, I'd suggest looking elsewhere. We came in as a party of five a little after 9:00 PM and were told the kitchen closed at 10:00 PM. No problemo, we were ready to order right away. Instead, our server didn't return to take our order until around 9:20PM, despite nearby tables continuing to receive service. That was the first sign things weren't going well. I ordered the carne asada nachos specifically because the menu advertised them with queso instead of shredded cheese. I even mentioned to my group that was the reason I was ordering them. I also added a side of sweet potato waffle fries. About 25 minutes after we had already placed our order, the server came back and asked if I'd like a different meat. Like of course I don't want a different meat that's why I ordered carne asada. The server didn't say that they were out of carne asada, but I read between the lines and opted for ground beef cause really the queso is what makes the nachos. Also, I couldn't help wondering why it took 25 minutes to find that out. Then the food arrived. My nachos immediately looked different than expected. Instead of queso, they were covered with shredded cheese. Nothing was mentioned about being out of queso. I notice there was none. When I asked about it, the server casually said, "Oh yeah, we're out of queso too." Wait...what? So the restaurant was out of both the carne asada and the queso. The two main ingredients that made me order the dish in the first place. No one cared to mentioned either of those things when taking my order OR when coming back and asking if I wanted a different meat didn't also mention they were out of queso. Had I known, I would have ordered something completely different from the start. To the server's credit, she did let me order something else. Sucks for the kitchen because they were already closed. I ended up getting the sliders, but they were just as underwhelming as everything else. The food overall tasted like frozen products that had simply been reheated. Nothing tasted fresh, especially considering the prices. The biggest issue wasn't just the mediocre food, it was the lack of communication and straight lie when placing my food in front of me. If items are unavailable, tell customers before they order or at least when placing their food down, not after they've waited half an hour and not saying anything at all. Between the disappointing service, poor communication, and unforgettable food for all the wrong reasons, this place completely lost my trust. I'd honestly rather spend half the money at IHOP, where the food is more consistent and I'd know what to expect.

DJ can be accommodating... at times. Recommend coming with a large group. Cons: Horrible location tucked away in the middle of nowhere. No dress code, and if there is, it's not enforced. Bottle service areas have huge couches. Smaller groups will feel lost among friends. A bit overpriced for the location. The facility tends to stay warm. Though barely anyone in the venue on a Friday night, and if you have bottle service, server visits to your table are few and far between. Though they do congregate among themselves and check their phones frequently. Sigh. Fails: Hookah smoking is on the menu. A lame attempt to entice a younger crowd in, while alienating the older crowd that has the disposable income. Vaping is also allowed as staff doesn't admonish you if you do it in the open and in front of other patrons. Total turn off and only reason we would not return. If you want to be respected like a high-end nightclub, act like one and cater to your paying clientele.
