As one of the Collin Culinary restaurants I'm a fan just because. This place is real chill. I have never dined I inside because I am drawn the patio every visit. It's cozy and very well shaded. The service is one of the best and the food is great. It always hits the spot. I really enjoy the chicken tenders. Meaty, fresh, and well seasoned. I don't usually care for shoestring fries but they know how to cook them just right. It's a very peaceful dining experience and my go to when I want a quiet while eating. read more

Wally's American Pub N Grill - Chicken Tenders - Gastropubs Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

It was Saturday night. Wally's and its surroundings were jumping. If you were not lucky and needed a parking spot, a valet would do you the favor for was $8. (please see photo) While not listed on the menu, the tip amount you choose will appear on your bill. What you see printed is the "out the door price". The service was very good. For a $21 plate of what they called "Pasta", it was $27.49 including tip and tax. It's lovely to be able to sit outside. It wasn't noisy. The music was soft.. The temperature was fine. If you look up, though, you will see that Wally's has misters for those hot nights. There is also an indoor seating area. It looks like it will seat as many as were outside. It's a place for all seasons. No one in my party of five complained about the food. We all liked the service. Mine was Pasta with Meatballs, Spinach and Mushrooms. The food was very hot (temperature) and full-flavored. The sauce was thick and smooth, made from tomatoes. Nothing very fancy, but very satisfying in taste and portion size. Nice place, maybe that's why it's so crowded on Saturday read more

Met some friends here for an early dinner. We got a seat promptly. Staff was nice. My husband got the happy hour short rib tacos as an appetizer and said they were good. I had the stroganoff as my entree and I ate every bite. I will say it needed salt but overall it was good. My husband had the fish and chips and said the fish wasn't great. It was very thin and there were only 2 pieces. Artichoke appetizer got great reviews from our friends. They have a little patio area for outdoor seating that would probably be great during winter! read more

Our table ordered the French Dip served with a delicious horseradish aoli on the side which was nice so I could use what I want plus instead of fries I chose the Parmesan Spinach, and we also ordered 2 delicious pasta dishes. Starters were pretzels and the cheese sauce had a slight kick to it which was nice. Thr artichokes with the dipping sauce was very good. Service was excellent! They were accommodating with the booth we chose. read more

Wally's a good old standard for American fare. Patio is great for people watching coming in and out of all of the small business and boutiques. Happy hour is a great deal if on a budget. Recommendations from previous visit as well as this one - fish and chips, beef stroganoff, cheese sticks, meatballs, quesadillas and any cocktail you can think of. Service is always friendly and fast. read more

Stopped in for the first time to Wally's and it certainly will not be the last. The prime rib dip was outstanding, wife had the skillet Mac n Cheese and it was perfectly prepared and delicious. Enjoyed the outdoor patio and the great service we received. Plus the view of Camelback from the patio was a nice bonus. Will definitely be back. read more

A go to spot for lunch! You can't go wrong with Wally's. Great bar food that is always consistent with the quality. Staff are great, and they are quick and on top of it! Love the Buffalo chicken tenders, burgers, or French dip. read more

Our family has been coming to Wally's American Pub for over 20 years, and it remains one of our favorite spots in Phoenix for comfort food, great service, and affordable prices. We always start with a local brewery draft (right now we're hooked on Church Music) before diving into our go-to dishes. Portions here are huge, so plan to share! The Artichoke Dip is a must, and the Caramelized Vidalia Onion Soup is another family favorite. For mains, my wife and daughter swear by the Beef Stroganoff, while I like to rotate between the Stuffed Pork Chop, Meatloaf, Pot Roast, or Liver and Onions. Don't miss the Mashed Horseradish Potatoes, they are the perfect sidekick. And yes, always save room for dessert. The White Chocolate Bread Pudding is legendary, and we still end up taking leftovers home for a late-night snack. This is one of our top "celebration restaurants," (Kid Friendly) where we know the food, drinks, and service will always make the night special. Highly recommended! read more

Just because it's a prime rib special on Fri night don't think it's anything special. It's a way to have you spend double the price of many other items on the menu. They buy in bulk on Friday's so they are getting the deal for your below average cut of meat! My grilled chicken sandwich wasn't even a full breast rather slices you'd put on a salad. The slices were held together with the melted cheese and the bun was if they pulled from a freezer and toasted it. Very disappointed for the ratings on line! Wonder who's completing these surveys?! Service average she couldn't even bring the correct bottled beer or explain some of the specialty beers on menu. read more

What a great pub! Our server was super friendly and recommended some dishes since it was our first time. We had the halibut special with horseradish potatoes and the prime rib dip sandwich. The food was great, and the leftovers were delicious the next day as well. We will definitely be coming here again. read more

Been coming here for years and it is consistently great for food and service. Just a great place to go to.

Very happy with our meal. Excellent taco salad and breakfast burrito. Staff answered questions and were very professional and quick. Great building to visit just to enjoy the scenery. read more

The food is very good. Server was very attentive and very pleasant. I dined on a day that was not too busy, so the ambiance was quiet. I will definitely return. read more

Great pub and grille, warm and comfy, excellent service. Best pot roast, fish and chips and Bleu Cheese Burger in town!

I love this place! So many good dishes it's so hard to choose one. I could eat there everyday. Great staff a very chill atmosphere.

Great happy hour menu with a fun location and outside area that is fun to sit! Lots of T.V.'s to watch sports. I ordered the fish tacos and my friend had the quesadillas. Good drinks! Service was friendly and prompt. read more

So we've walked by the other Wallys that is by Gainey Ranch and have never gone in because it always looks like it isn't very full and that one doesn't have as much foot traffic as this one. Our friends live nearby and we were we're visiting them at lunch hour so we walked to this location, and we were very pleased with the service, the food, and the overall ambience. My choice was the California Cobb salad. It was very fresh and the proportion of ingredients was balanced. My better half had the Philly cheesesteak sandwich with fries, and it was the bomb. Really flavorful, moist with tender beef that had nice griddle marks on it and the fries were hot and well seasoned. The bar is very cool looking - all wood. It seems almost like a throwback kind of place so much nicer feel than all of the sterile, white and gray restaurants out there now. Luckily, the food wasn't throwback it was tasty and well executed. If we are in the area looking for a solid meal, we would definitely return. read more

Service and Food were great. I will be back the menu had so many items I want to try. Great first visit

As good as my burger (the Rodeo Burger/sweet potato fries) was, it was the service that was lacking for me. I had lunch with a group of 4 people total and it took quite a while to have someone wait on us after seating. It took forever to get our drinks. Food came out in a decent amount of time, we weren't checked on frequently, and it just seemed slow even though the restaurant wasn't busy. The inside bar looked very nice and the patio had great space but because of this encounter I'm not sure I would rush back to Wally's. read more

Try the soup! Had dinner here last night. We thought we would both have the roast beef dip sandwich but we saw one come out and it is huge. We shared one and it was plenty. The spinach that came with the sandwich was amazing. Since we split the sandwich we decided to have a bowl of the French onion soup. OMG. Best I have ever had. Definitely looking forward to a return visit. read more

Great food. We had the prime rib sandwich and the Cuban. So incredibly flavorful. Fresh and gif the mark on all taste points! Shoestring fries, Caesar salad, definitely an amazing meal. Has a great chic vibe and the service was amazing as well. Definitely a go to if I'm out this way again. read more

The grilled artichoke hearts and Wally's blonde were delicious! Definitely recommend if you're in the area! read more

Food is great! Had a wrong Togo order, but they were great to deal with in getting it corrected. Definitely going back.

Drove 40 minutes across town to join a large group of family to have a family lunch here. Glad I only ordered an iced tea. The rest of the folks were over 65 and I think they remember when this place used to be good. I spent time at both tables hanging out with the family. The first table literally everyone (7 people) had ordered fish and chips and none of them liked them. I saw the F&C looked overcooked, overbrowned. I don't need that grease in me anyway. At the second table, an unusual thing happened which is why this review is 1-star. My dress got caught on the chair and I couldn't stand up or move. It took us some time to figure out where the dress was caught. A GIANT wood splinter about 1" long on the side of the chair. I didn't want to rip my favorite summer dress. Finally, someone in my family was able to unsnag me. There was some minor damage to the dress... hell, it was caught on an f'in 1 inch long wooden pick basically. What really got my goat was the act of gaslighting of the manager. I'm a short lady, he is a tall kinda beefy guy, towering over me. Probably used to kind of gruffing his way through his managerial duties with staff, used to not getting feedback, only compliance. He had an utter lack of understanding of how to speak to a customer. I really wasn't looking for anything, other than a simple "I'm sorry." This is the one thing he really couldn't get himself to do. I doubt he was even aware that it was all that was called for because it never happened. Instead, he tried gaslighting me multiple ways. I f'in hate gaslighting, especially when your'e a paying customer -- and our family probably spend a few hundred here in this empty restaurant that day. To prove my point, I checked a few other chairs. All you had to do was run your hand along the side of the seat to find all kinds of splintering wood. This is the place where a person's thigh goes... you know, people who may be wearing shorts in the summer... right? Or a flowing summer dress and not something that clings to the leg... Here's his various gaslighting over the multiple chairs that have splinters on the side of the seats: --These are old chairs. (His overall excuse) --I see no hole. (What did he want me to do? Lift up my dress right there?_ --I don't see any damage. (Same as above.) Anyway, I'm sure I'll not be the only person pinned into their chair when their clothing snags on the side of the chair and can't even stand up without risking their clothing. But what about people wearing shorts who might actually get speared in the thigh or when holding the sides of the chair to push to/from the table? I've told them... it's up to them now. If they know their chairs are splintering (big time) with inch long chunks of wood stick out, I guess it's there problem now. I wouldn't even be writing this if it weren't for the crappy, contentious pushback I got. I've worked retail and food, and service... all in the past. You f'in say you're sorry. Say it more than once. Even offer an iced tea to go to just show you appreciate that the person is letting the matter go. (Not what I was after, it's just a gesture of respect...). My thin rayon-type dress is now truly snagged a bit like when your pantyhose get snagged. I have a long tight string pulled across the bottom of the skirt and a small vertical run. I'm not expecting anything but an "I'm Sorry" would've been nice instead of a mansplaining gaslight response that nothing happened. -- I was stuck in my chair dude, not able to stand up. Don't worry, I still don't want anything from you. But this will stay up in case there's a claim by someone who gets stabbed by the chairs. read more

One of the few places to find a great Wedge Salad! Other tasty and ample (understatement) entrees are the meatloaf, the Wally Burger and specials of Halibut or Prime Rib. The Mac 'n Cheese is over the top cheesy. The cocktails, beer selections and wines are very good and well selected. Enjoy! read more

We've been here a few times as a family and we love it. Great service and the food is five stars. A good divey/ Irish pub! Would recommend!!

This place won't disappoint. Take a break from the other sports grills and check this place out you will not be disappointed. The restaurant is spacious, clean, and the staff are welcoming On this visit we shared the French Orime Rib Dip Sandwich, fries, burger, onion rings, and the Cuban panin onion strings and everything was excellent. The Cuban was pilled high, flavorful and the onion strings added the perfect touch. The French dip and burger were also very good. Meats were juicy and perfectly oreoared. Can't wait to go back and try other menu items. Great service, food, fun atmosphere, and reasonable prices. Stop by you won't be disappointed read more

Went to Wally' for 20 years ! Stop going because with noticeable change of ownership father versus son complete staff as well as kitchen staff and management! Things felt thrue the cracks ! They used to know their regular , local customers but no more . Covid changed everything not for the better !!! Owner never present ! Food not consistent Service needs better training at times unprofessional. Ambiance very disappointing ! Wishing them a good summer season .....from tourism . read more

We came here after hiking Camelback Mountain. There was no parking at the trail head so we park near this restaurant in a little shopping/business center. It is a bar and pub but I would consider it a fancier bar and pub. They have an open concept with outdoor and indoor seating but the doors are open. It was a beautiful day and we sat outside by the grass area toward the entrance of the restaurant. They also have umbrellas for shade. To start, we had a beer and I had a mimosa. They give you the mini champagne bottle and orange juice for you to decide you own concoction. We also started with the pretzel that came with cheese and mustard. The pretzel WAS HUGE and perfectly crisp. It is definitely going to make you full before your meal. We asked for extra queso. The queso was delicious but the texture was weird. It was very fluid like and didn't stick well but delicious. For lunch I had the meat loaf with gravy, mushrooms, French fry onions and veggies. The veggies were good and fresh and the French fry onions were made from scratch. The meatloaf and mashed potatoes were delicious, I loved how they mashed the potatoes with the skins on. The gravy was also amazing but I do not think they gave enough. There wasn't enough to cover the meatloaf of gravy and the dish seemed more about presentation. My friend had the burger (do not remember the name) with bacon, a fried egg, bbq, and onion rings. The fries were amazing and the burger was huge. You had to smush it to eat it. The egg was a good addition. I loved the atmosphere and they had a good selection of menu items. Would definitely come again!! read more

While out exploring, we ended up in Phoenix and found this place to drop in for lunch. Good menu choices, I had the fish and chips. Quite tasty. We sat outside to enjoy the weather so there is not much to say about the inside. Service was good and everyone super friendly. Worth dropping in for a drink and some good food. read more

Great little neighborhood bar with a nice patio (with heaters if needed), good service and tasty bar food. We dropped in to have a drink and appetizers as they had plenty of outdoor space.
