Tailgaters and Il Primo

I enjoy their wings even if a tad small, they are always cooked well. The pizza is subpar. We ordered three times for delivery and they completely messed up the third time. I guess it can happen but when we called to have it fixed they put us on hold multiple times, finally said they would correct it but never arrived to actually fix it. We called after another hour and they yet again put us on hold. We waited 5 minutes on hold a manager answered and said yet a different manager would call us back. Guess what, we never heard back and went to bed hungry. We gave up not only on this order but on the establishment. Too many other places that deliver to us that hasn’t messed up in dozens of orders. They clearly have no regard for customers and will lie to avoid speaking to them.

Went to Tailgaters in Peoria for dinner and to watch a Stanley Cup game. I sat at the bar — they have many craft, domestic, and import beers on tap. The beer was fresh, cold, and tasty. Service at the bar was very good and the bartenders were friendly. Had a cheeseburger and fries for dinner — it was cooked right and the fries were crispy and hot. Very nice sports bar environment with many TVs showing a variety of games. Nice place — will go back again when I’m in town.

I just don’t like tailgaters. We’ve been here three times and ordered pizza delivery and it’s yet to be good. The quality of the food doesn’t compare with the price. Today we got two bacon cheeseburgers with fries, a philly cheese steak and fries and a baked Italian sub with fries. The burgers were burned (ordered medium) the fries are very greasy. The philly tasted like it was made in grease and was very salty. Two of us feel physically ill and it included upset stomachs and time in the restroom. I’m done with this place!

Umm. So, I went here to join people doing the pizza contest. I thought they were crazy for doing it anyways but they enjoyed it. Their pizza actually looked and smelt good. I would come back for the pizza. I ordered wings, normal bar food. They were still good. My stars for my review was mainly about an employee there who was talking to us during the challenge. There were some members with us from the Mormon church. Missionaries. It’s obvious because of what they’re wearing and the name tags. One of the employees started to criticize what the members of the church believe and started telling them what they believe. The Elder missionaries didn’t mind at all. However, to me it seemed rude that an employee who had a different belief wanted to state things he felt about the church. I didn’t feel that was necessary. I thought it was rude and not appropriate at all.

Enjoyed my first visit to Tailgators on Lake Pleasant Blvd! Clean restaurant, attentive staff, and favorable drink prices. Great place to watch a ballgame. I will be back!

Very disappointed in lack of caring on managements part thinking it is acceptable to blare soccer extremely loud and annoy many customers. When asked to turn it down, turned down then back up. We have been loyal customers for quite some time, but since the manager Justin doesn’t care about customers and upset several to please 2, we won’t be returning.

Usually one of my favorite places. The food is always very good, but our waitress was the absolute worst! She was rude and pissed off and not at us, but definitely taking it out on us! I didn’t even want to tip her and we were a table of seven. But of course, I did. But I will not sit in her section again! Her name was Nikki and the other waitstaff did not seem too fond of her either. My advise, avoid her section!

Wow, the service here sucked. One star for decent food — once we actually got it. Orders wrong, bills wrong. Came on Mother’s Day for just a casual time. Waiter never apologized, never sent a manager to apologize — nada. Being group of about a dozen they sure added the 18% gratuity though. Won’t be back.

It is a nice place to have a drink at the end of your day and good food, lots of tv and good staff. Plenty of taps for beer

This was not one of my better experiences Was truly disappointed in the sliders. Server should ask customer how they want the meat cooked so you don’t get hockey pucks. Now I know produce isn’t cheap but when I asked for lettuce, tomato and onions for the sliders the three little pieces of lettuce two little thin half slices of tomato and one small piece of onion made me wonder if this place might be going overboard in cutting cost. We had started off with nachos which were good but the two plates we were given were dirty and had to be sent back. The fly buzzing around and fighting us for the nachos wasn’t an invited guest but seemed to think it was. The manager did stop by the table but i feel Tailgaters needs to have a training class in how to handle situations better. Would have to think about going back as there are better places in this area.

This place is the shit and people hating on it need to get a life. Bomb food, strong drinks, and really awesome staff.

3÷24÷2016 My husband wanted to try this place. He got a baked meatball sub and I ordered the Reuben. Both were delicious, but, the fries were so greasy they were oozing. Good news, had two drinks was only charged for one. I think the one reason I keep going back is the huge size of the bar and the ability to look outside. Sitting at a bar and only seeing the tv’s gets old. Just seeing the trees outside make it much more relaxing. I never have been a big fan of a small, 15 – 20 seat bar. Like a big open room, with lots of seating. So, now that I have sampled a few foods, I will stick to what I know is fair to good. I really go for a drink or two and the food is secondary.
3÷10÷2016
Well, another try and another disappointment. Not sure what I am doing wrong, or if I am just ordering the wrong food. Got the wings this time. They were so small, overlooked and hardly had any meat at all on them.
Not sure if I want to
I have been here three times and the food is good and fast. Took my daughter there today and she loved her baked Philly cheesesteak sandwich. I had the Reuben and it was real tender and the marble rye toasted, not soggy. There variety of beers is impressive and I have yet to have any food item that I did not like. It will become my new local favorite spot.
Had to take away a few stars after this last visit. Stopped in around 12:30 and sat at the bar, as I always do. Ordered the Buffalo Chicken Wrap. It was quite disappointing with mostly lettuce and tomato and very little chicken. I had to unwrap it and dig around to find the few bites of chicken that was there. Bartender/​waitress did not ask me how my meal was until I was completely finished. Told her that the chicken was practically non-​existent to which she said she would let the kitchen know. She did not tell the kitchen and after another 30 minutes, I told the manager. I hope that the quality does not start sliding now that they have been open for a few months.

We stopped for lunch last Tuesday. I ordered Sliders and my wife ordered the French Dip. The sliders were next to inedible, the meat??? obviously had been cooked earlier and was cold. I was able to choke down 2 with plenty of water, My wife’s French Dip was inedible. The meat, nor sure what it was, beef or roadkill, was over cooked and dry and no amount of the purported Au Jus would soften it. Speaking of the Aus Jus, it was tasteless. With waitress reminding us how she liked the AUs Jus because it wasn’t loaded with sodium it was a horror story.
On the good side the wait staff was excellent!

Never Ever go here on Friday night! Gone for lunch several times and it was great. Went this Friday, unbelievable, saw the waitress 2 times in 2 hours. Appetizers came with the meal, food was cold, had to find the waitress to pay the bill. I don’t work for the fire department, but I’m pretty sure they had more people inside than the law allows.
Updated review
Tried to eat here on Sunday. Looked like all the help was watching TV. After 15 minutes we left, unfortunately no one around to complain too. Never/​never/​again! Shame, great food, good location, fair pricing, obviously bad management

First and last time.
The hostess cleaned the booth with a wet towel then forgot to wipe it.
I ordered spaghetti and meatballs. The plate had water in it from the spaghetti.
Food tasted as if everything was frozen then heated up.
We will not be returning.

I will give this please a five star rating because of the good experience we had and the GREAT appetizer selection. Especially the cheese curds. WOW they were better than the fair.
The atmosphere was fun along with 360 degree views of televisions. Wait staff friendly, helpful and just all around awesome.
I ordered the Philly Steak pocket. It is like a calzone with the steak in the middle. It could of used more flavor is some sort. Although my sandwich was not perfect the rest of my experience was and like I said, try the appetizers. I definitely will give the dinner portion another shot. Plenty of things to choose from.

Came to watch a game a couple of Sundays ago. Great location. Lots of HD tvs. Plenty of seats if you get their early on game day and it is very clean inside. The service was also excellent. Our waitress checked on us frequently and was very pleasant.
I was with a small group and we shared a pizza and some apps. The pizza was very good. Good dough, lots of toppings, and tasty sauce.
The beer menu here was also quite good. They had multiple IPAs, lots of local stuff (or at least what used to be local, you sell-​outs Four Peaks), and your usual rice water domestic beer (that is no longer even American) for those of you without taste buds.
The price was average for the product.
It would be nice if they added a patio so the smokers don’t conglomerate by the front door.
I would absolutely come here again and recommend it to others.

vann rocked! Cowboys suck! Lol. Food was good sandwiches need a bread that stands up better
Will be back and want Vann to wait on us again!

Tailgaters and Il primo in one spot??? Can’t complain! Definitely coming back, close to home and love the Spicy garlic Parmesan wings! LOADS OF TVS! Sports and UFC… The must go to spot!

Great service, friendly staff, good food (loved the wings and potato skins) AND fantastic French fries! Came in to watch the game and was not disappointed
