Native Grill & Wings

The food is terrible bar food. Total lack of creativity and poorly made. The queso and pork is disgusting. The cheese and pork are out of bags. The sliders are terrible. The meat blend is poor quality and the preparation is terrible, over cooked the patty. The bun was grilled dry??? So it tasted like burnt toast. The breeding on the onion rings is that terrible rough crunchy batter rather than a smooth beer batter. The chicken strippers were literally the worst chicken strips I’ve had. The buffalo sauce lacked flavor and the breading was soggy. Just awful food.

let me start by saying I’ve eaten here in the past and it was always pretty decent for bar food… but, tonight i made the mistake of ordering their chicken wings… the worst I’ve ever had… ever…first they were breaded… being from Buffalo, thats immediately a red flag but you don’t know that going in…2^nd i asked for crispy… NOT! The wing sauce was basically plain franks hot sauce… most of the mushy breading on the wings came off on my hands.,.if you want cafeteria style garbage wings this is the place for you… very disappointed! i gave them a 2 star only because the waitresses are extremely nice.

When the restaurant’s claim to fame is chicken wings and they can’t get a simple take-​out order right on a Thursday evening when half the place is empty, it says a lot about quality. Ordered a 24-​wing pack and two additional dipping sauces to go. Got home to find no dipping sauce – not the standard side or additional sauces, expressly ordered and charged for. No celery sticks. Wing-​count was less than 24 — shorted 3 in one box and 2 in another. Really annoying especially since the take-​out was necessitated because we had no time to sit-​down or drive back to the restaurant to have them make the order right. This is not the first time we’ve experienced poor quality orders at the Desert Foothills location. No telling how many wing offerings were passed up on the drive home and the stop at Native Grill & Wings. However, next time, I’ll be stopping elsewhere.

My family and I go there all the time! Great ambiance, great food, and great customer service! The wait staff is very friendly and having been there so many times have gotten to know the owners. Theu are very nice people. My standard is the Stripper Platter with Honey Hot Sauce. My only complaint is that there are no carrots served with the wings. It is a convenient location, freat food and a wonderful experience. Highly reccomend!

Not sure why it is taking 5 employees and 45 minutes to get my to go order of a salad. No one can seem to find my order. Need some leadership in here.

Worst customer service by management. My husband placed a carry out for dinner. He had to repeat the order 3 times and when he picked it up it was still incorrect and or part of the order was entered by the staff. The manager told him the problem was because the staff member that took the order wears hearing aids. Why would a manager ever use someone’s disability as an excuse?

We decided to try out this location. Unfortunately, we were disappointed with our wings and sides. Both the wings and coleslaw lacked any sauce and were quite bland. Definitely some potential with this location since the ambiance is much better than other locations we have visited throughout Phoenix.

Before they changed the name I had came here with my family and to be honest we all thought the food here was terrible (this was a few years back when they were still serving pasta) Now since the name and I believe a menu change I can’t get enough of this place. everything is delicious and the wings are Amazing! if I want good wings I go here!!!

Another less than average experience. Wings were cold. The waitress failed to tell us about the Sunday special and wanted to get our order BEFORE we had menus.
Oh well — luckily we have CK’s, Loco Patron and Uncle Bears to go to.
Can say we won’t be back — we tried.

Great food, kid friendly, and fantastic service. We were there on football Sunday and were impressed!

I ordered a dozen BBQ wings, when I got home there was little to no sauce on them. I drove all the way back (36 weeks pregnant) and they had an excuse that ‘that’s how they make them.’ I’ve had wings there before and it’s hit or miss. They either don’t put any sauce or they do. Definitely never going back. If I’m paying for wings I expect sauce and not just fried chicken with a dab of sauce.

This is the third time in a row we’ve come to this place and walked out after waiting 10+ minutes for a server to take our drink orders (or even acknowledge that we’re there). It wasn’t even busy this time! The staff was just standing around near the wait station ten feet from us and somehow ignored our party of five. The food isn’t anything special, but in light of the horrible service I won’t be coming back.

I don’t go here for amazing food, I go here because it is family friendly and the servers are always so friendly. We love the wings and how accommodating the kitchen is for requests and mixing flavors. My kids have grown up eating at Native!

Tuesday night wings! I don’t know the exact promo but I know the parking lot is fully and the place is jumping. I usually get 4 of the 6 rubs for my wings and I’m satisfied. The food is good not great. Service is a hit or miss but overall I’d give it a 4. Lots of work needed to get the 5 star review but I’d default here on Tuesday sans cooking.

Native Grill & Wings is genuinely not the place of my style, and I don’t usually go here often, but for multiple times, the location here has impressed me quite a bit. Unfortunately, not the point in which I was completely astonished. Without further ado, here are the simple reasons why I am only satisfactory with what I ate.
Pros:
All of the food that each of us ate was delicious. I ordered the Friday Fish Fry, my sister ordered the Strawberry Walnut Salad, and my father ordered the California Burger. The Friday Fish Fry was decently large. It included a fried fish with tartar sauce, a mini salad with mayonnaise, lots of French fries with ketchup, and two pieces of flatbread. The fish was extraordinarily crunchy and fresh. When I look to the other dishes, I saw that they are enjoying them as well. The Strawberry Walnut Salad is full of fresh greens, but not many strawberries. The service was extraordinary. They always seem to check on you every five to ten minutes, and if you happen to dislike a specific channel on TV, you can tell them and they will immediately change the channel.
Cons:
The location is tiny. During a football, basketball, soccer, etc. game, the place is CROWDED, and you may have to wait about 10 – 30 minutes until you get seated. (Wait until the Super Bowl XLIX starts. It will be absolutely miserable waiting for a SINGLE seat.) The food takes pretty long to prepare on these crowded days (then again, the forty-​ninth Super Bowl) so you will have to be patient.
One thing is for sure, I’m coming back (early) for the Super Bowl. Definitely go to this location.

Best chicken wings in town, and the onion rings are the best. The service is great, always enjoy eating dinner there.

Came here after our friends asked us out to dinner with the kids. When we heard there were TV’s to watch the World Series, we were in. We like to support our local area food establishments.
We ordered a mix of bugers, pizza, sliders. Service was very friendly but really slooooooow. Pizza oven was «backed up» whatever that means and came out about ten minutes after the other food. Kind of expected to get something comped. The food was typical bar food, nothing I crave but good for watching sports.

Came here for food and karaōke, as well as fun with some great people. Got all of the above and then some, despite slow service to order our food. In the end it was fine though, because the good food we ordered more than made up for the slow service in placing our order. Diet Cokes, Buffalo Bleu Cheese Chips, Loaded Fries, & Boneless Chicken Wings were what we got and wow were they delicious! I am a sucker for Buffalo Bleu Cheese Chips, after having them at Gordon Biersch last month and these were just as good as theirs!
Karaōke was a blast and we all had a great time. We stayed until closing and sang a lot of great songs. Each of us has the love of music in common and it was awesome hearing what each of us loves to sing along to. Makes for good times and great fun, as does the whole Native New Yorker experience!
If you’re looking for a great place to check out sports events on tv, have a night out doing karaōke, or just come for great food and awesome people, this is the place to be!

I came with my wife and a group of friends on a Saturday night for karaōke. Cool place. TV’s all around so you will not miss any sports action whether you sit out in the patio or inside. The restaurant was clean and the service at first was very slow but it improved as the night went on. When I mean slow what I mean is I sat down, got my first drink right away and pretty much had to flag our waitress down after 20 minutes to order some food. You’d think a bar would want to upsell their food to make more money? From 10 p.m.-1 a. m they have happy hour on their food where select appetizers are $ 4 & $ 5 each. My wife and I ordered 2 Diet Cokes, an order of Buffalo Chips, Loaded fries and a ½ lb. of boneless wings. All for $ 20. Helluva deal.
The food was very delicious. While I liked the Loaded Fries, I LOVED the Buffalo Chips! Homemade sliced potatoes cooked perfectly with blue cheese crumbles and dressing. On the boneless wings I ordered honey bbq sauce and they were a winner as well. I would love to come back and try their pizza or calzones. I know starting at 9 p.m. beers were $ 3 but I don’t get into beer too much.
Karaōke is fun on Saturday nights and there was a decent crowd but you can easily find a table to sit at. I will definitely come back. If you’re looking for a fun place to grab some grub and watch a game or just chill, Native New Yorker is the place for you.

Great place to hang out with friends and catch a game! The back has a lot of seating (tables and booths) and TVs at every angle so that they have multiple games playing at once! They have a pretty good happy hour from 3−7pm, with a variety of appetizers (every day) and assorted drinks (except Saturday).
Came with a group of friends to watch a football game, and we ordered an assortment of appetizers, 2 pitchers of Blue Moon, and a couple entrees to share. I got the buffalo fish sliders, because they seemed pretty unique. The plate came with 3, and although they were a little heavy on the mayo they were really tasty! Unfortunately, the curly fries I got on the side could have been crispier/​more flavorful. Their steak fries didn’t look too great either though. I would say their food is good, but not amazing.
Overall, we had a great experience! Our server was really friendly, and the environment was spacious and clean! Will definitely revisit when I’m back in town!
