The Original Arcadia Tavern — Restaurant in Phoenix

My boyfriend, his father, and I visited this restaurant for the first time on Father's Day. Surprisingly, they were not packed and had open tables. They also offered free signature burgers to all the dads. Our waitress was kind in the beginning, although she didn't tell us about the drink specials, but after taking our order we never saw her again. This was especially odd considering I had ordered a margarita, and was likely to order another had I been prompted, but I guess that's her loss.

Another individual expedited the food, and she had a horrible attitude. We watched her drop an entire tray of food on a table, and she tried giving us food that wasn't our THREE different times. It seems important that someone with the sole job of expediting food learn to read the table numbers on the tickets. She also had long flowing hair that brushed the plates and really grossed me out. PUT YOUR HAIR UP!

Anyways, we had ordered mozzarella sticks as an appetizer and it took 30 minutes to finally arrive at our table, and they were stone cold. We sent them back and didn't have a problem removing them from the bill, fortunately. The food was mediocre. Not too special of a burger for what they charge, and definitely nothing so appetizing to make me want to return.

I was primarily disappointed with the lack of attention we received and the wait time on our food, granted this place wasn't even packed. It was also a buzz kill to be approached by staff with such a poor attitude on day we were trying to celebrate with dad.

I don't recommend this...

I like to try new places so we often go to different places...we visited your bar today 8/22/2016 around 530/6 pm. .. the parking lot was full we had to park over at safeway and walk over. we were seated quickly but our server "molly" was a bit slow on service. we ordered spinach dip and the fancy toast as appetizers. then the meal hubby ordered the corned beef, I ordered the shepherds pie, daughter ordered the kids pizza. ...dip came out and after our meal came out then the fancy toast came so not really eaten. corned beef was good. daughter ate her food the shepherds pie was uneatable (she did take that off bill) but one thing did want to make comment about it was that it was as if salad was the main dish and shepherds pie was the side.. the server we almost had to flag down for hubby to get a second beer and order desert. the last thing is it being monday my daughters meal should have been free....we will not return or recommend this place...

I went here with my girlfriend to watch some baseball. We were sat on the left side of the building where nobody was. We had two different servers take our order, which was very confusing. Then the two servers checked on us along with three other employees. This was awkward to say the least. As we were in the middle of eating our meal we were asked if we wanted dessert... we hadn't even finished our meal. We had another three separate employees ask us if everything was fine. I don't know if they were bored or just enjoy annoying their customers, but this will the be last visit we make, eventhough its a block away from me. Also the food sucks. I thought it was hard to mess up nachos, but somehow they succeeded, not to mention the other plates we ordered. They have a strange way of taking care of...
