The Verrado Grille

Gorgeous view, especially at sunset! Sat outside on the patio the first visit and enjoyed the pork chop special, which was quite good. Hot fudge sundae for dessert wasn’t anything special. Next visit we brought the kids along and sat outside again. Kids meals were large portions and the kids loved them. My husband had the fish and chips which was alright, but not great; and I had the chicken Caesar salad, which was tasty, but not as large of a portion as I would expect for the price. Overall, we come here for the ambiance and expect average food.

Don’t go to this grill if you’re going to go 15 minutes before they close because their waitresses and waiters will make all the excuses in the book of why they don’t need to serve you. being a casino pit boss and running casinos my whole business is based on customer service and customer is coming in the door. If you’re not in business to serve customers and make customers happy and make money tips surprisingly that’s what you get paid for. then get out of the business because you don’t need to be there. Probably the reason why I don’t go there anymore. To me I just call that lazy and if your waiters and waitresses can’t serve the public and obviously have more important things to do after they get off work then stay and Ernie good tip but you should be fired.

Took family here that was visiting as we’d heard the view was spectacular. Yes, yes it was! As we were dining the sun set and it was absolutely breathtaking. We had a little trouble finding a comfy table because it was December and quite chilly in the evening. Everyone else was using a heater but our patio table’s heater wasn’t on. We looked around and found a similar table whose heater was on and after waiting quite some time for our server (or any staff to walk by for that matter) to return we took it upon ourselves to switch tables. It was a relaxed atmosphere and fairly empty so we assumed they wouldn’t mind. He was a little annoyed with us and after that our service went drastically downhill. He was extremely rude the rest of the evening.
Food was pretty good, typical golf course fare… the meatloaf was outstanding as well as the Mac n cheese. I think we’d return for the views and I’d like to try their happy hour.
All in all, I’d rate it 5 stars for views and ambiance, 4 for food, 2 – 3 for service.

This restaurant has good food and an amazing atmosphere but be prepared to wait! We’ve eaten here at least 3 times and each time the meal takes an entire evening. I’m not sure how well the kitchen is staffed. Also, we love dining on the outdoor patio. We had to leave because smoking is allowed outdoors. I didn’t want to smell that during our meal. Especially my four kids. This happened when there was a wedding reception taking place. It must have been one of their guests. So avoid this place when there is a reception!

Don’t waste your time-​especially if you have children! They will not seat you. We were given an approximate time of 20 minutes to wait from the hostess. We ended up waiting OVER 40 minutes and watched party after party come in and be seated before us! At the 40 minute mark, we were told they still had two other parties (a party of 7 AND a party of 5!) to be seated before us. My son is hypoglycemic and they were more concerned with seating friends and regulars. We have NEVER had such horrible service (if you can call it that) anywhere! We will not be returning.

We are picky diners. Found this place while traveling Palm Desert to Scottsdale. We will definitely be coming back. Great food and attentive service.

Good food and a nice patio to hang out during Happy Hour. They have $ 3 and $ 3.50 beer specials and $ 5 and $ 6 appetizer specials during HH.

This our first time out here in Buckeye Arizona, The food here was Amazing. Our family tried each other’s food, from the Seafood pasta, Burgers, Fish & Chips… to some up all the food in one word «AMAZING»!! And the price even better.

I LOVE the Verrado Grille for the amazing views and drinks! However, what I do not love is some of the unfriendly staff. the manager especially. I try to only go at times when I know she is not around. If it weren’t for that I would give this place 5 stars.

As an avid user of Unilocal over the years for restaurants and other venues, my experience this past weekend at the Verrado grille has pushed me to write my first review.
I am a semi retired businessman from Los Angeles. My girlfriend and I were here visiting my daughter and her family who have been Verrado residents for the past 7 years.
We have enjoyed the grille numerous times over the years and as a matter of fact held my daughters wedding rehearsal dinner there a few years back.
This past weekend we decided to try the grill for brunch. It was a beautiful day and decided to sit at an outside table.
Our group included an ESA (emotional support animal). Even though Lola is an ESA dog, we still understand that some people may have issues with dogs, so we never insist on sitting inside or where some people might be offended.
We chose a table was way out on the patio with only one other table that was seated at the time way on the other side.
After our waiter took out drink orders we we were approached by a woman who asked if Lola was an ADA dog, I replied that she is an ESA Dog.
She said that they do not allow ESA dogs on their property and only ADA animals were allowed.
When I asked why, she said (with a very matter of fact attitude) «it has to do with food being served»…and that it was their «corporate policy». Whether that be the law or not is for another day… as It is, illegal to ask! I can tell you that this is the first time we have had to leave a restaurant because of being refused service with Lola.
I think the most disturbing part of the experience was the attitude of the asst. manger, a Ms. Fields, who almost seemed to get some pleasure out of chalking up another victory for her and the ousting of another ESA animal!!! As she followed us out the front door as though we were being run out of town!
We proceeded to go over to Tempo where we had a nice breakfast and where «All» dogs are welcome.
Here is my advice to the Corporate office… They need to get involved and work on a complete attitude overhaul at the Grille and pro Shop. There is a sort of arrogance throughout!
I think they are in for an awaking! As of next week, they are not going to be the only game in town… with the opening of The Vic/​Victory Club
who as a matter of fact, mention in their literature to bring your Dog… Service animal or not!
The grille at Verrado may survive… but will never flourish especially with management like Ms. Fields!
Hope to return again after things change!

Last Saturday I had my first time experience at
The Verrado Grille. It was a beautiful day and was
enjoying my lunch with my friend on the patio .
The hostess and waiters where very friendly to us and a family that arrived with a darling little girl and a sweet service dog at table across the way from us. (who were only other customers on the patio .btw)
All was well until a very bossy manager (I guess)
arrived at the table and caused quite a stir .
I can’t imagine why these folks were scolded by Ms. Bossy pants. Who then banished them because of their well behaved) service dog ?
It’s the law to allow dogs ESA animals. correct ?
The dog was wearing a vest and I saw them show the ID so why turn away biz ?
Looks like they could use some !!
I guess some people really need to abuse their power and I highly recommend this woman be excused .
Other than this bad experience .
The food was great.

I really enjoy going to the Grille! We like to sit out on the patio and enjoy the scenery and atmosphere. The food is great. I would like more choices on menu. The service is nice. I have had some unfriendly waiters but nothing to complain about. There is never a wait and the food is pretty fast. It’s a great choice for something nicer.

As long as I don’t speak with the manager I have a good experience.
Staff is always good and food is improving.

Awesome place to have a nice dinner. Decided to check it out on a Sunday evening after church with my brother Jairo and his beautiful family. The place is beautiful so please bring your camera. Service was great too with very friendly and attentive staff. Ordered appetizers from the happy hour menu which were fairly priced. AppetiZers were surprisingly awesome. Menu offers good American selection at decent prizes. Kids options are fantastic and definitely priced correctly. Not the most affordable on the main courses but is worth it as food was good and the view was all worth it. Will definitely be back. I would have given it 5 stars if they didn’t charge for refills on fountain drinks and if they didn’t charge me an extra $ 4 to split a meal with my wife.

I’ve tried this places several times and every time I’m always let down. There have been multiple times when my food was still cold, indicating that it is obviously not «fresh». Our server appeared and sounded very displeased the whole time. The manager had a very degrading tone when she talked and always looked really pissed off so I can’t blame her. Don’t get me wrong, the view is nice, but it is not worth the money or the unpleasant experience.

My husband & I had a wonderful experience here. Very nice. The scenery was gorgeous as well.

Love this place. Amazing views and amazing pasta carbonara. Yummmm! I’ve been there for two anniversaries. It doesn’t disappoint. The brownie sundae is so good and ginormous! The outside patio is awesome with great views of the lake, bridge, and final hole!

Best place to eat in Verrado! Only visited once and can’t wait to go back again to try something else. The house salad is large enough for a meal. I hear it’s hit or miss with different cooks here, but on my visit the food was delicious. Service was fantastic, I wish I could remember his name. The menu has something for everyone, even vegetarian friendly which I can’t say about the other two choices of eateries in Verrado.

Whenever we are in the mood for a great breakfast, we head on in to the Grille. But we just don’t come here for breakfast, we enjoy lunch and dinner here too! Friendly staff and great food each and every time! Beautiful views too! Just a reminder to keep your kids on a leash. They don’t like them running around the pond or patio area.

Late November…
The desert air, crisp and clean on a Sunday morning,
And I’m surrounded.
Surrounded by multiple games upon multiple screens,
Lions and Pats, Cards and Hawks.
Friends of old sitting across from one another, stories – once told,
Now again and again – flung casually about, bouncing
Here and there and here and there…
The fireplace aglow, and another on-​tap round,
Orange-​slice garnishings.
Cheers were in order, and the Verrado Grille,
Also relaxing in the mid-​morning sun and welcoming any and all
Who have the luxury of lazy, weekend afternoons,
Hosted.
Here, you recline.
And at noontime sharp,
Our Happy Hour,
Suggestions, recommendations, libations…
Fives and sixes, listed mixes,
And fondues and sliders
And caesars and ritas.
Truffles and pretzels, wings, quesadillas…
Verrado Grille makes your stay easy.
The game’s not over, however.
So stay awhile.
Enjoy
The moment and the
Smiles
Surrounding
You.
