Stuff your face here with 39 cent wings on Tuesday/Thursday, and you'll never be disappointed. I like the hot, strawberry hot, and oriental garlic. I get 6 of each (you can order by the wing. Tell me that's not awesome.) washed down with a Coors Light for $10 (not including tip). I go home full and happy. Also, a good place to watch sports. I guess you can order other stuff, too. The pizza isn't something I'd travel here for, and well, nothing else is. Whatever, just come for the wings and you'll leave happy.

This place USED to have good service (Julius was awesome) and some tasty inexpensive wings but their prices have gone up, especially on the wings (BRING BACK .39c WINGS?). The last time I was in the place was nearly empty and the waitress wouldn't give us the time of day so my friend and I sat ourselves and waited and waited...and waited. The only reason we stuck around was because my friend is a borderline alcoholic and loves their de-railers so I was forced to stick around. The wings are now small, dry, 89 cent sad-excuse-for-wings. My buddy and I used to make it a Tuesday and Thursday night tradition to get .39 cent wings but now, even if they did bring back the special, they're wings flat out suck. Did I mention the SMALL proportions compared to say a year or so ago? They've recently erected a Buffalo Wild Wings next to the Cards stadium across the street which we tried after our last visit here was a flop. We happened to go on a lucky night because on certain days they offer HALF-OFF wings...boneless one night and traditional is half off another night. I have to say YUM...we are now frequenters of Buffalo Wild Wings. So long Native New Yorker. I'm don't think changing your name like you did recently will help the poor poor customer service, price hikes and decline in food quality.

I've been ordering from here for the last two years. The portions have nearly been cut in half and the quality has been on a downhill slide. The orders have become so small that I actually laughed out loud when I opened mine. It will be my last meal from Native New Yorker.

I came here with a buddy of mine around 6:00 in the evening on a Wednesday. Against my wishes, we sat in the dining area instead of the bar. The booth - WAY TO SMALL. I'm a skinny guy - 6' tall 165ish. I had to sit "side saddle" to feel somewhat comfortable. For those who don't know what that means, I had to sit SIDEWAYS with my legs on the seat, and my feet hanging off the end. The atmosphere was devoid of life, and completely drained of energy. There were two other tables seated in the section. The waitress had no idea what beers they offered, and had to read off a list. She also had no clue if they offered any season selections that might of had fruit flavoring of any kind. When she came back from "investigating", she said they offered a hard apple cider. I ordered one along with an Italian beef. I've worked for a NNY in the past, and thought it to be a safe bet - bread, meat, cheese, au jus, fries. The sandwich could of been taken out of the salamander sooner, as the top had some burning to it. My friend had boneless wings - I'm not even going to waste time talking about deep fried, frozen commercial "meat chunks". I don't go out to eat very often, but I do work as a chef. In aware of the difference between a horrible-great place is; I've worked for all in-between. I knew I was in for low quality food, but for as DEAD as it was, I'd expected to see them at the top of their game. This was mediocre at best. At least the hard apple cider was good.
(2)Brad S.
The first time I went here they totally spaced my order - something about a broken printer. Good news is they gave me free meal coupons (had to come back - no instant comp). The bad news was that I went back. Me and my buddy both ordered beef dishes and we were both praying to the porcelain god that night. I didn't give it one star because I actually liked the place the first time I went.
(2)Jihan L.
Not sure what the big deal is about their wings. They aren't that good and most of them are sorta dry. I think they cook them too long or something. I've tried this place 3 times and still very inconsistent with all the wings when you eat them Cool that you can get all these different flavors but wish the meat would be more moist. Service wasn't bad at all so atleast they have that. Also they have the UFC fight be they charge a admission which is kind of stupid IMO. And you have to spend a certain amount during the fight. Wtf is that, this place is cheap as hell I won't be back and I go to a real bar to watch the fights without having to pay.
(1)Ariel H.
Thanks, Dan, for the incredibly shitty service. When you asked me if I wanted a box for the nine dollar calzone I'd only picked at because it tasted like something out of a rotten Lunchable, and I grimaced and shook my head no, it was because I couldn't imagine it tasting any better another day later. You said "you didn't like it?" and then disappeared for another 25 minutes to go shoot the shit with your co-workers, who were also on the clock. I, mistakenly thought you were possibly talking to your manager to redress the situation, or maybe thinking of something else to bring. Instead, you didn't ask if I wanted anything else and still put it on my bill. Any of the food that takes skill to make here is a POS. Sure, my dinner salad was fine, but you can't really go wrong with lettuce and dressing. Everyone I went with, myself included, felt ill after eating here. I don't even know how this place is still in business and I wish it wasn't. What a hell hole.
(1)Gary W.
1 pound Boneless wings are not a great value. Felt ripped off. Service was fine, but pricey for what you get.
(2)Enrique D.
I have been there three times over the last month, and I am not impressed. Marginal service, cold food, quail wings, and not the quality of the past. This is a new change, I have been there in the past and it wasn't bad. I have been frequenting Native since 1986, the original in Tempe and this franchise I will not be returning.
(2)Henry S.
Terrible. Slow slow slow service and ordinary food. The bone in wings have little meat... The boneless ones are the better route here. My wife described her hamburger as "lacking taste" and my mother in law scraped the filling off her lettuce wraps and threw out the lettuce. We allowed the kids to order desserts but it took 22 minutes to arrive. Ridiculous. Waiter kept saying that they were on the way. Not sure why we keep coming back every year.... Won't make that mistake again.
(1)James A.
Came in just for some wings they were just what. I needed at the moment service was great and we were sat immediately nice peaceful vist as no games were going on at the time
(3)Mark S.
I am going to give thumbs up for the service here and a resounding "meh" on the food for this Native New Yorker location. Most of the credit is due to the wait staff for finding space for our group of about 30 on a Sunday night when the NBA finals were on. Service was by no means perfect, but again, credit where credit is due. This was a fairly picky group and I did not hear many complaints about the service. The server split up the checks according to our requests and made sure we knew that the gratuity was included on each of our bills due to the large party. Some servers will conveniently leave out that fact Now on to the critique of the food. This is based solely on the food I tasted or the food for my family on my own check. Wings: supposedly they are famous for this, but the best comment I heard was "they are better than Applebees"... not such a ringing endorsement. I tried a couple and thought they were small and dry. I had the Reuben. It was standard fare and nothing more. Not memorable. Wife had a salad, which she said was OK. My daughters both had the Fettuccine Alfredo, which is what they order whenever possible. They said it was OK but the chicken was dry. I will give them props for the service. I don't think I will be in a huge hurry to go back for the food.
(3)Branislav V.
I will give two stars because server was cool. Food, not great. Sliders I had were so hard that I couldnt even chew on them. Meat inside was dry, and texture was bad. Also the wings were not even close to be what they should be. Few of them were cold and mushy. Not impressed at all.
(2)Matthew G.
My hotel was horribly located and had no amenities (Spring Hill) so the only room service was a delivery from this place. I held off ordering but on the 3rd day in town I broke down (I don't like ordering off site- unless it's pizza). I ordered boneless wings and a rack of ribs (lunch and dinner). I declined paying extra for a salad when asked. The food arrived very promptly, even though I ordered during the lunch hour, and the young woman who brought it had a BIG smile...not a perturbed look like most delivery persons! The ribs didn't have the sauce on them, which I like but I know some people don't. The sides were very minimal (I counted 11 steak fries)! I should have ordered the salad. The wings were their "hot" flavor but barely had spice to them. I would say it was a mild sauce (I usually order medium). All of the food was barely warm on arrival. Finally, they were kind enough to give me plenty of plasticware and condiments. Improvements: simplify your LARGE menu, offer sauce on the side for wings, and use foil in to go orders.

Friends took me here for lunch on a Saturday. It was my first visit and I was not disappointed. The service was good and the garbage pizza was awesome. I'll be back!
(4)J B.
We went here to grab a burger and a beer.... Service was non existent and when the bartender did greet us she acted as if she was doing us a favor. We went about 9:30pm this passed friday.
(1)Anthony G.
Wasn't a huge fan. We went here on the first night of our excursion to see our Eagles get plucked by the Cardinals last weekend. My brother wanted to watch the UFC fights and found out this place gets the PPVs. We each paid a $5 cover charge which didnt seem too bad and sat on the patio as the inside was packed. It was very hot out and their misting system was a little shaky all night. When they finally got it turned on after a short while, mist (well, we all hope it was mist) came out pouring over all of us and our drinks. My dad questioned whether it was mist or dust as the system seemed somewhat antiquated. A short period of time later the system started emanating HEAT from it, which was about the last thing any of us needed, like running up to someone who was drowning and throwing a brick at them for good measure. My brother ended up climbing up and disconnecting the heat plug under supervision of another employee, which the possibilities caused me to have flashbacks to my Business Law college courses. I ordered a club sandwich with no cheese since I didn't want to start my vacation on an upset stomach. Upon the delivery the waitress repeated the order as she handed me my plate of food "One club sandwich with no cheese" 30 seconds later I was picking cheese off of each and every quarter of it. Even more annoying, sometimes I'd peel of the cheese and have to HUNT for the meat. I kid you not, one of them had maybe half of an average SLICE of turkey on it. THAT'S IT. So there was bread, lettuce, tomato, unwanted cheese, and half a slice of turkey. If you've seen me you know I don't look like Fiona Apple, so I'd like more than 2-3 slices of meat TOTAL on my sandwich please. The fries were okay (I substituted the steak fries for curly), but nothing you can't get elsewhere. The only saving grace for the experience was the waitress who was extremely friendly, efficient, and refilled the drinks constantly. Prices were average unless you consider that club sandwich probably had $.75 worth of fixings, and I'm certain it cost more than that. 1 star for the food, bumped up to a 2 for the service.
(2)Matthew S.
Sat inside the bar area. It took 45 minutes to get my food. The bar only had 1 server working. Wow! couldn't believe that 1 server for the whole bar. I cannot recommend this place ever. Read all the other reviews and you will change your mind. I won't ever be coming back
(1)Anita N.
It's been 5 months since I've returned and in that time they changed the menu. The waiter told us they went away with the curly fries, the steak fries, and now have downgraded to skinny little nothing fries. I guess I shouldn't be surprised by this place cutting corners. Maybe I's because when I do come here i'm optimistic that "maybe this time will be different!" Unfortunately I keep getting let down. It's the little things...
(1)JR H.
BAD BAD BAD!!! Our server was clearly on drugs and looked a mess, the management is terrible, the food is so/so. Watch out for the tall skinny white guy server that has been working there for a while. Clearly on drugs.
(1)Tanya L.
Great atmosphere and food! Drinks come in big glasses and all the food was excellent with lots of TVs to watch every game. A big step up from BWWs. Erin was our server on football Sunday and was very attentive and pleasant. We definitely will be coming back!!
(5)Julie M.
We were very disappointed in the service and help.. Had to find our own menus, find a waitress to come take our order. Spilled our drink but didn't wipe up and we had to ask for napkins to wipe it up. Asked for sugar for ice tea, didn't come until after food was delivered. Server and manager had a bad attitude. Will not return there when there are so many other places that offer better service.
(1)G W.
Horrible customer service at the bar. Took me 20 minutes to get a beer and the bar area was not busy. The bartenders are just morons. Michelle is not too bright. DO NOT ORDER from her unless you want a ton of mistakes. The other bartender wasn't any better. She is the one I had to wait 20 mins to get my first drinkl...Damn!
(1)Emily M.
This place is awful. Our take out order took over an hour and a half. When we finally received it, the toppings were wrong on our pizza and they messed up our salad order.
(1)Ron K.
Used to love this place and it's typically a stop for us when we visit Phoenix, but it's really gone downhill in the last few years. The service was pretty poor, there was an obvious lack of management, and the quality of food was below average.
(2)Carrie G.
Mmmmmmmmm...margarita on the rocks...mmmmmmmmmm! Went in here for HH one Friday night and ordered a regular margarita on the rocks and loved every sippage second of it! On this particular visit I ordered the wedge salad and thought it was pretty tasty too. Did I mention that their margarita was really good? It def was not out of a machine (Macayos...ahem!).
(4)Mystere G.
Gag gag GAG!!! I am staying at the Residence Inn in Glendale and they offer room service that comes from Native New Yorker. I ordered the BBQ chicken burger with steak fries, and a chocolate cheesecake. Disgusting. It took about 35 minutes for the food to arrive (not bad). The food that I received was awful. The menu says (I have it in front of me lol): "Topped with our BBQ sauce, cheddar cheese, signature onion strings and leaf lettuce." The chicken tasted pretty good. The lettuce was wilted, the onions were greasy and gross, and there was NOOOO cheese!! Cheese is everything! GAH! Cheesecake....with whipped cream?? The whipped cream was ALL melted when it was delivered! EW. OBVIOUSLY it was going to melt on the way to the hotel, right? So why put it on there? The menu says NOTHING about whipped cream, either. The chocolate tasted like plain ol Hersey's. Definitely will not be eating there again, room service or dine in.
(1)Chris M.
I haven't bothered visiting this location for about a year because of crap service and food. Gave it a shot the other night and they have really stepped their game up! The server was very nice and well trained, the chicken sandwich was very tasty! Kudos for turning things around and hopefully they will keep it up!
(4)Connie M.
The service was way below average! We had a large party but we should not have to get our own menus and flag down a bus boy to get the waitress to take our drink orders 15 min after being seated. Requests for condiments, drink refills, and napkins for a spilled beer the waitress mishandled were repeatedly requested. The cherry on top, was when one of our party members asked if the tip was already added to all our tickets to clarify the 18% gratuity and the waitress tried to tell her the gratuity is not the tip and she can add the tip as well. I asked for a manager and the manager came over with attitude to state, "I hear someone is upset about the gratuity.." This place has the worst service, and staff I have ever encountered! They were completely insulting to all of us that have worked in the service industry!
(1)Raquel M.
The waitress was really nice but not very efficient. Had the buffalo chips, which i really love. They make their own "chip" and some were really, really burned. I ordered the chicken wings and they were absolutley dry. I had to ask for more sauce to put on them. Makes eating them not as much fun, when you have to correct them. My husband ordered the calzone and he was not impressed.
(2)A. E.
Super hot wings! Yum! Great staff too!
(4)Erin S.
I wish there was a way to give 1/2 stars. I visited this afternoon with my husband and son. Drinks at least came quickly. We ordered asiago cheese chips (the only decent part of the meal for me) and the server tried to walk away before my husband could order his suicide wings. ***Side note #1. Someone that finds jalapenos hot, should not be able to comfortably finish a suicide wing. It was hot, but the Heart Attack at Yen Sushi is hotter. Instead of clearing the empty dishes first, she came out with a tray, and rather than coming the extra 3 feet around the table, held my Kummelweck sandwich in my face across the table until I took it. ***Side note #2. Holding a bun under tap water and smooching seeds with regular salt on it prior to serving, is not the way to make a Kummelweck bun. I can understand the bottom of the bun being already disintegrated from the beef holding water and spilled Ah Jus when I got the plate, but the top bun should not only not be cold and soggy, my hand shouldn't look covered in wet sand after I put it down. ***Side note #3. Au Jus should not have more grease than broth. I'd requested a salad, which wasn't brought out with dinner. The leaves were slimy, the tomato was rotten and the cheese looked like it had been living there for a few days. My sons sliders meal was ok. At least this time you could see the meat on the sandwich. My husbands burger was ok, but didn't feel so hot afterwords. The only positive point from this experience was the asiago cheese chips. Lack luster, lazy server, plus substandard food. Definitely won't be back.
(1)Albert H.
Worst dining experience in 2009 for me. Where do I start? 1. Sat at a table that had menus and silverware, but was obviously not wiped down. 2. They can't decide who our server is, 5 mins, 6 mins, 7 mins go by... and right at about 10 mins. someone is our server. 3. Menu says Sam Adams on draft. Turns out, after a long wait, there is no Sam Adams on tap and we order again. 4. Potato chips were delayed because they did not have any pre-made chips. They arrived with the main meal. 5. Kitchen staff was joking around, girls screaming, almost as if it was a little Spring Break party inside and everyone could hear them. 6. Calzone was ice cold in the middle. Frozen ricotta cheese? 7. Pizza was burnt on the top. No, you're not supposed to have those black circular splotches on the cheese. 8. Just a few casual apologies from the teenage waiter for the above. No manager apology, no "comped" items, nothing. This place seems like it was transplanted from some dopey college campus where every customer is 21 or under and just comes here to get drunk, regardless of food quality, service, and the time it takes to get food. Native New Yorker is a failure. I regret not taking the other Yelp reviews more seriously, since NNY has a clear trend towards the low end of things, at this location and on Bell.
(1)Tony M.
Stayed at the Hotel across the street so went here to get some beer and wings. Not bad but not to great either, the service was slow in getting back to the table to see if we needed anything else and was even slower when we kept ordering another round of beers. Seemed like the waiter kept dissapearing when you needed him to be around.
(3)Brooks S.
The drinks are good but the service could use some polishing.
(3)John P.
Busy day, many parties , one cook and the manager also manning the grills. So the timely service wasn't happening today. That's ok wasn't in a hurry. But the waitress, Brandi , rocked and kept those things that could be kept in motion moving. First I have to go off on the wings. I am tired of promises of impending immolation or later cauterization of hemorrhoids only to be served up "weak sauce" wings that are about as challenging as balancing a brick in the center of a pool table. Wing sauce was also salty as hell. Wings are a good size and taste good in their own right just embarrassing that news of my suicide turned out to in error. In this case for anyone used to hot thai food suicide really is painless Main course. Burgers, Pretty good, generous on the fries, baked potatoes. Was good enough but this is more sustenance than sublime . Partner had tenderloin sliders which were pretty good meat wise, once you found it , but the buns are way too big for the task and you can't really enjoy it as a burger but hopefully someone just mismatched the bread types today. If not this dish is huge fail. Kid's meal was great value and HUGE we are used to mini hot dogs and string fries . Prices hold with a Chilis / Applebees type location. Pleasant enough an the menu has main sections for pizza, pasta, burgers, steak and wings as the main themes plus the obligatory salads. If it wasn't next to Cabelas, an I wasn't ravenous for "anything" I could miss this place. Not I really want to give it 2.5 stars but have rounded it up.
(3)Anne K.
I am giving 4 stars based on food only, since we delivered it to one of the nearby hotel rooms. The order was timely and their seasonal Fish burger was just awesome !! The garden salad was fresh and very inviting and the side orders were delicious too. Large portion sizes, overall great food. I want to actually go to the place and see how it feels one day !
(4)Jeff L.
Giving Native New Yorker 5 stars for one reason. They stepped up and hosted the rally for the Save the Coyotes coalition. Bravo....great job for helping out fans of a valley sports team that is in trouble and needs to stay in the valley. Will patronize them whenever I am in that area....they proudly stepped up for the fans (and did a great job with the crowds) and now I will return the favor. One thing to say to Native New Yorker: THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!!
(5)Melissa H.
Native New Yorker gets a 3 merely because I really like their wings, other than that I could really do without this place in any sort of eating rotation. Their menu is huge and often leaves you spending time struggling between choices, but there is nothing that spectacular about anything on it. I have tried sandwiches, pizza, pizza puffs, appetizers and all are just OK. It is standard bar fare but without anything special to push it over the edge. The service is hit or miss depending on the day.
(3)Natalie S.
The pizza was ok.... Dinner salad was still defrosting and came after our pizza & deep fried mushrooms... They seemed to be overstaffed with romper room rejects! The mgr should cut staff & maybe pay a dollar or two more an hour to hire people who have reached puberty.
(1)Ken K.
My son and I were in Phoenix for a couple of days to watch the Yotes and Oilers. We were staying in the area and went into this place on a Sunday evening. What a huge mistake. The waitress was just fine, however, the food was miserable. My son ordered a burger and I ordered a chicken sandwich. My sandwich was burnt on the edges and the curly fries were soggy (for both of us). My son's burger was barely edible and I wish I could say the same for the chicken burger. It tasted aweful. That was my last meal in this joint.
(1)Jason I.
For a native new yorker this one is pretty good. are you looking for a bar to go to after a hockey or football game and don't want to fight the westgate crowd go here. Prices are similar to most chain restaurants. Wings are tasty and many different flavors. Burgers are very good and there is a beer special everyday and not a small beer a big one for 3 bucks cant beat that!. They have a good wing special on Tuesdays that is just awesome. I go here for the wings not the best in phoenix but good price and served fresh not dry like some places or over fried.
(4)Lydia O.
We got the hostess look at us funny like she didn't know was going on. So we sat at bar side. So we sat there for twenty minutes til they took our order, we had three different say hello and said our server will get us soon.It seem like they didn't know where to go or what to do.We didn't know it was wings night. We ask our server if we can get 1/2 legs and 1/2 wings. His answer was the cooks are too busy so they will give us what they wanted. But he will try and he was right the cook gave us what they wanted. What happen to customers service?
(2)Jeanette P.
I'm only reviewing the wings. We've ordered wings from here a few times, because my husband likes them. The last time we ordered from them, the wings were UNBELIEVABLY SMALL. They must be trying to save money, but they just lost our business. When they charge almost $17.00 for 24 wings, they better be a decent size. Won't go again.
(1)Roger P.
Glendale Native seems to want to make a change for the better, new menu, new don't cook it until you order it - but what the heck - no ribs, no steak, no specials on Saturdays? And how can plain home syle potato chips cost the same as the loaded Buffalo Chips? Many waitresses and waiter need to take lessons from Jessica. This place still needs to make major improvements on the front greeting desk - they stil seem clueless many times.
(3)Blake M.
Well the service here is terrible and it's more noisy than a cafeteria. After waiting forever to be helped and finally receive my food it was subpar to say the least. I recommend if anyone decides to eat here, do yourself a favor and turn around. Overall not satisfied at all with any aspect of this restaurant.
(1)Al G.
To start: To CCW/RKBA: NO FIREARMS ALLOWED. I got an order to go. Asian Garlic & Hot Chili (formerly Suicide) The wings are not very crispy, but the sauce is good. The Hot Chili Wings were not very hot, but still tasty. But overall, I have had better, and I would not give my money to an anti-gun restaurant again. It is weird that that they would pick a location next to the largest retailer of firearms (Cabela's).
(1)Gabriel S.
Okay, since I was looking to find a quick bite after shopping at Cabela's, I decided to give this place a chance for redemption. I admit I noticed a change in atmosphere, which is good. My party and I came in on a Tuesday which is the wing special. Service was excellent and the wings were good. But I noticed they now have some kind of rules to ordering wings now. Apparently, customers can no longer have a "special request" for wing orders (No sloppy and/or "naked" wings". No legs only, which I've never requested.) Since it was slow enough, the server agreed to have my wings a little "Sloppy". I understand that wings will never go back to 39cents per wing on Tuesdays and Thursday's like the good ol' days, but limiting a customers request on they want their wings is like saying they can't have a steak cooked how they want it (IMO). This location has improved some, and I will be back when I'm on that side of town, looking for a quick bite. But I still won't make the long trip from Tempe like I used to.
(3)Mike M.
I love the lemon pepper wings and the garbage pizza. The bar area is nice to sit at, decent service and lots of TVs to watch your favorite sports. I stay away from the restaurant side though... every time I've sat there with my family I leave thinking, "Why do I keep coming here?" Mostly service oriented issues. So stick to the bar if you go! Between the cold beer and assortment of TVs you'll forget you even came with someone!
(3)Jake D.
I've personally never had a problem with Native Grill & Wings, until I stopped by this location for the first football game of the season. The service was extremely slow even for it being busy, the food was mixed up multiple times, and our beer was never served after 30 minutes. Our waitress was almost non-existent after our correct food was finally delivered so we had to actively flag down servers or managers so we could get more food and drinks in. The food is sub-par, but not terrible, at this location, and if I could rate just the food itself I would give it a 2 or 3/5, but what truly warrants this 1 star review is the situation that happened shortly after. Our waitress gave us our checks, and after wrapping my debit card in my receipt, I hand it over to the waitress along with the few friends I was with. She then comes back about 15 minutes later, but instead of my debit card, she hands me 5 dollars back with my receipt (My friend gave the waitress cash for his bill, and it somehow ended up paying for my food). I told her I paid with my card, and she looked around for it and then said she would be right back and went inside. After another 15 minutes, I was very concerned on where my debit card was and decide to check my bank account. Astonishingly, there was a $105.10 charge for Native Grill & Wings on it, but my order was only $14. The waitress charged my card for a completely different table's food. After more time spent asking and waiting for managers, they finally said they have my card and managed to reverse the charge, but I never saw our waitress again. She never apologized or even tried to make anything remotely better. I still ended up paying for my meal after all of that, as well, which is fine, because I didn't expect it to be comped, but the gesture would have definitely made me feel a LOT less bitter about the situation, especially because the money didn't go back into my account until 2 days after the event, but luckily in time to pay for bills. All in all, I would avoid this Native Grill & Wings at ALL costs. Go right across the street to Buffalo Wild Wings.
(1)Bill D.
This place still blows. Your would think with Buffalo Wild Wings across the street and a new Dave and busters they would get their act together. NOT!! They are still bad from food to service. It's just a matter of time before they close the doors. Hey management keep up the great work. I give you credit you are consistent.

This place is alright if you hungry. Other than that wings are small and dry. The loaded fries are alright. This food is the same kind of food one can find at a pub.

Every time we get to Arizona from California every few months, this place is our first meal before/ after a trip to Cabelas. Ice cold beer, good service, great prices and enough tvs to watch every game. Not sure what's up with these 1 star reviews. This place is better the B Dubs and most small wing spots.

Okay so I gave this place a second chance. How could I be so forgiving from my last experience? Once again, the food here is horrible. You're better off buying Tyson frozen wings and heating them up yourselves. Don't go here...ever.

For starters I need to preface this review with the fact that there was a sports tv show filming when I arrived so the place was full. Let's start with service or let's say lack of service. Disappointing to say the least. I ordered wings and so did my wife. Very average like everything else. Felt like a dinning room at an old age home with TVs. All in all, not going back, but there are a lot of good reviews on this place, so maybe I just was unfortunate.

The wings were flavorful but on the small side and the wing sauce was not tossed on all the different flavors I ordered. The strawberry spice was original. The beer was cold. Large Union Jack IPA's were 6.00. Not bad for a 7.0% IPA. Nothing to write home about. Par for the course.

Worst customer service ever. We walked in and weren't greeted, even though two employees saw us walk in and just continued talking. There conversation was much more important, so we were seated after they were finally done. Our waitress was quick to take our order and our food came out quite quickly.. We had 18 cold wings and a side of fried zucchini and French fries. The zucchini was good, but the fries tasted stale and were partially warm. The wings I'm guessing were just microwaved since that's what it looked like. Our waitress took three years ( about 10 minutes ) to bring us the check and almost quite as long to pick it up -_- the restaurant wasn't even busy so I don't know what she was doing...

Poor service from the management did not have a clue on reservations, gave away our party space,guests sat separate , one server for 25 people, restaurant was empty for a Thursday and they still squished 3 party's in one corner , food was ok? After all that, won't be going back . Called to confirm and still had it wrong
(1)Brenda P.
I'm disappointed that quality seems to be declining with changes. Since the restaurant is so big, keep the kids out of the lounge!!
(2)Janelle F.
We've been a few times with our kids, but I have to say the customer service is really almost nonexistent. We sat down and it took 10 minutes to get our drink order and that's after we had to ask someone to help us. Once the waitress showed up. There was no apology and it took her another 5 minutes to get our drinks. If the rest of the meal takes this long not sure we will be back.

Hubby and I went here for lunch today. During lunch, the main dining room is usually closed and the bar area is open. I was a little discouraged at first, because of seating, but there were plenty of booths, tables and the bar to sit. We ordered some wings and a burger. The waitress was very attentive, the wings came out fast. The wings were very good. I recommend the strawberry hot wings. And if you just want to try a few wings, they sell them individually! The burger was also cooked perfectly. My hubby and I split the burger and a dozen wings. They even split the burger and divided it on two plates. I would highly recommend this place for lunch!

Came here last night to grab some dinner and to watch the Mayweather fight with my brother . There was a $25 cover charge per person but it wasn't a big deal. You had to spend $15 per person per hour to retain your seat if not you got the boot. And yes we actually saw people being booted or moved. This was no problem either as I understand that they have to make money during these events. What bothered me however was that some tables only had waters and one entree and nobody bothered them the entire night. My table however kept getting bothered every hour to order something. I'm not sure if the people across from us knew someone at the restaurant or what but I just found it a bit bothersome that they were lounging with their water while we had a buffet at our table. Regardless we still managed to have a decent time. There was 2 of us at my table so we ordered a 24 piece wing platter, tater tot appetizer, 1 large meaty beast pizza, 1 buffalo chicken dip appetizer, 5 beers and 2 drinks. The wings were ok. Very small in size compared to BWW. The flavor that stood out the most was the Asian garlic and Lemon pepper. The tater tots were delicious and crispy. The meaty beast pizza was thin and just ok. Very salty, lots of sauce and i didn't care for the bacon on the pizza. The service was decent but I asked for a refill on my soda and the waitress dissapeared and never came back. It wasnt until she brought me the bill that she remembered my drink. The fight was whack, the ambience just ok so overall experience nothing special. I don't think I'll be coming back to Native anytime soon unless I'm craving tater tots.

Wow! After reading all the reviews, I'm not sure we went to the right place. We arrived pretty late on Saturday night, the parking lot wasn't too crowded. There was a sign at the desk to walk around and seat yourself...so we did. They only had seating in the bar area, but there were plenty of tables available. We sat, and within seconds, we were handed menus and gave our drink order. Our server was Jeanette, who was very friendly and helpful. We hadn't been here before, so she gave us the rundown on everything. We couldn't decide which app to go with, and she suggested the potato skins. So glad she did, because they were really good. We decided to get 20 honey BBQ traditional wings. They were well-sauced and meaty. I got the bleu cheese and hubby got the ranch. We totally enjoyed them, and finished them off! Jeanette was quick on refills of our iced teas, and brought over extra napkins for us. Hubby took a look at the desserts (it's always dangerous when he does), so we ended up sharing the chocolate bundt cake. OMG! It was warm and moist, with hot chocolate sauce all over it...soooo good! All in all, we really enjoyed ourselves! We'll definitely be coming back again.

THEY COULD CARE LESS!!! Decided to try them for lunch. We arrived at their front door at 1105am. Doors were locked. Sign said they opened at 11am. We rattled the doors and NOTHING. NADA. Completely ignored. We waited a few seconds. AGAIN NOTHING. Simple. We left. I decided to call their corporate 480 number. Nothing but one voice mail after another. Left a message... AGAIN NOTHING. They did not bother to return my call. These guys are CRAP and could care less about customers. Fear not. LOTS of great restaurants a couple of blocks south in Westgate. Too bad one star is the worst rating.
(1)Jimmy J.
We live next door and thought we'd give it a try. I didn't believe ALL the negative reviews and thought I'd check it out seeing as how it was just across the street. Well... we were not greeted in the front and figured out the bar was on the left, where we sat for 3 minutes being ignored by the bartender and two servers before deciding to head out to the patio to enjoy the sunset. I decided that after waiting a total of 5 minutes and being passed by twice by our waitress on the patio we would just leave and head down to Gordon Biersch, so we did....Don't bother, all these negative reviews are true... It's too bad because they have a HUGE customer base built in with the two complexes next door. Show you care people, it's $$$...
(1)Dave J.
Service was good, attentive and pleasantly polite. Wings were so so and the sliders were decent.
(3)Ginger D.
If I said this place was total crap it would be the best complement this place has probably ever received!
(1)Roy F.
Food was good, I was there for father's day but they're food timing is horrible. I ordered my dinner part 10 minutes after my appetizer and the main meal came 1 minute afterwards. I purposely try and time this myself and they can't get it right.
(2)Alex F.
Impressed by my recent experience here only based on the last time I went to Native. The wings were decent sized compared to what they were serving under their old name. Our food order was served in a timely manner despite how busy it was. Most importantly our server was very nice and didn't ignore us when we didn't order drinks right away.
(3)Alan H.
I agree with the rating as far as the bbq pork flat bread, where's the pork????? Service wasn't badbut wasn't the friendliest! Not that busy had no host at the door but not long wait. But just a very indifferent feel to the place. Glad it's all the way on the other side of Phx from where I live! Only will return with a group if I cannot convince them to go else where!
(2)Scott M.
Why is everyone bashing this place??!! We got seated right away in the lounge (self seating sports bar area) no age limit. The service was great. The waiter was prompt fast and polite. We got our food quick. The wings here were fall off the bone amazing. I got mild and honey barbecue. And my girlfriend got fish and chips. Give this place a try. You won't regret it! Great food great atmosphere. Don't listen to 3 month old picky eater reviews. Bunch of damn whiners.
(5)ReGina B.
Got the Buffalo Ranch Twists and wings: barbecue hot flavor and Asian Garlic. Really good! Bud light on tap $3 bucks! Service has been great! Quick to check on me! When I told the waitress it was my first time she pulled up a chair a chatted with me about the menu! The only negative is that I'm sitting outside and so are the smokers. ..ughhh. Ashley is awesome! Checked on me multiple times; the RIGHT way! Business brought me here but I'll DEFINITELY be back! Took away a star because of the smoke situation but other that great experience! Football, beer, wings, outside and 67 degrees in Phoenix. ...doesn't get much better than that!

It sucks that this is the closet place to my condo and it's such a horrible establishment. If you list yourself as a grill then operate the grill as the hours are posted. If all you can order late night is fried food after 10pm then close your doors at 10pm. I ended up going to Buffalo Wild Wings instead, the place is open until 2am and surprise...the kitchen is open until 2am. Shocking concept.
(1)Ramon O.
This place totally sucks when it comes to customer service. Went there with a buddy tonight for dinner at 10:25pm...working late. After we were sat down the server told us that they we're only serving wings and appetizers. Ok, so we ordered our drinks. When she brought our drinks she then told us that we can only order fried items and no flat breads. Mind you, they say they are open until 11pm. If you don't want to cook after 10pm then close at 10pm. I was pissed!!! Went to Native Grill but couldn't order anything from the grill. Just doesn't make sense. We just left!!! I do not recommend this place at all!!!
(1)Chris A.
Service is crap. They are rude and don't really care when you get your food or how long it takes for you to be seated. The hosted was rude and I would never go back there!!!
(1)Sam R.
This place is average. The wings are a little small and kind of bland, but they have good prices, and a couple nights a week, really good specials on food/drink. Beers are big and cold, lots of TV's to watch sports. The place is split into two sides so if you have family or kids you can sit on the restaurant side and if you are with your buddies ready to cheer for the game and crush beers, you can sit on the bar side. Good service, attentive wait staff, good apps. Good to go if you don't have plans and want to watch a game as it is a bit under the radar.
(3)Brad P.
Garbage pizza was great, as always. My kids also liked the wings. Appetizer didn't arrive until after our dinner, but they did not charge us for it, which was appropriate. Salad a disappointment, but all other food items very good. Our server, Mariana, was excellent. She had a kind disposition and checked with us often enough without being intrusive. She kept our drinks filled throughout the evening.

Lets see.... son ordered Mango Iced Tea, got normal iced tea. Got that corrected. Hadn't even ordered when a server brought us meals. Wrong table. Ordered philly cheese-steak, Received a French Dip complete with Au jus, Asked wheres my cheese-steak, told me that this was, just accidentally added the au jus... which had spilled all over the plate, soaking the sandwich and fries. But wait... husband ordered the Beef on Kummelweck - "A Buffalo, New York favorite! Roast beef piled high on our homemade Kummelweck roll (a special roll topped with caraway seeds and weck salt). Served with horseradish and au jus ". This arrived with no au jus or horseradish. They ran off to get that. Server came back 8 minutes later with the sauces, asked if I wanted a replacement sandwich. "Will this also take 25 minutes?" I'm told that the bar is slammed so it would take 20mins. Never mind, I'll just eat the half that isn't soggy. Hey, bring my son another mango iced tea. Received regular again... Oh, and during this time, another server tried to give us another tables meal.. again. Yeah, no.

Been here a couple of time and each time has been progressively worst. I would liken it to the same price point as Applebee's but not even the same quality of taste. The biggest draw I would say is the UFC PPV that are worth the trip with their wings which are probably one of their only saving graces. Even on that note it would only be an idea if BWW was to packed.
(2)Penny Lane X.
Native (new name) isn't horrible, it's just average. We were greeted right away, plus we had a friendly and attentive Food Server. The place wasn't dead, but it wasn't packed full of people either like Cracker Barrel or BJ's on a Sunday afternoon. Wall-mounted televisions are located throughout the restaurant to entertain any random sports fanatic. The food is pretty average, nothing truly special. Pizza and wings are pretty average, nothing that's so amazing to lure me back again. Mild wings are pretty spicy for being "mild". Portions were average. To the cooks or employees in the kitchen, customers can hear you yelling from the dining room.
(3)Michelle J.
I would have to say that overall, it was just OK. I got the fish and fries. The fish was really oily, and the longer it set on my plate the soggier it got. The twisted potato appetizer was really good. My husband ordered some chicken wings with the buffalo sauce. For 79 cents apiece, they were really small chicken wings. My husband made a comment that they must be from cornish hens. Our meal total with drinks was $33. The service was good.

We stopped in to play a few games of buzztime trivia but they had connectivity issues which no one has been able to solve. So, we had a drink and shared some chicken tenders. Hubby had Asian Garlic and I had the Asiago Parmesan. Also got some curly fries - watch out blood here comes the cholesterol. The tenders had too much breading for my taste but the sauces were both tasty. Also the french fries had a little bit of an off taste like maybe the oil was a bit old? The staff there is amazingly friendly and top notch. We'll be back to try something else on the menu and hopefully play some trivia.

Before you waste your time and money going here, give heed to my warnings and learn from my mistakes! First of all, their Chickens must be on a diet. Compared to Buffalo Wild Wings, they are about a half of the size and you need to purchase a drink at NNY in order to get the 49-cent traditional wing special price on Tuesdays & Thursdays. As if that's not enough, my 22oz lukewarm beer was brought to me in a room-temperature glass with a curly black hair on the sipping rim. My wife was given carbonated water without syrup when she ordered a Sprite. As pleasant as these drinks sound, they arrived over 10 minutes after we were seated. Maybe the delay accounts for the strategic placement of the hair between the bartender's quick restroom break and the delivery of another beer? Perhaps not, but it sure looked like a pubic hair! As for the flavor of the wings, be prepared to be unsatisfied (especially if you've been to Buffalo Wild Wings). For instance, the Strawberry Hot wings taste like they are marinated in IHOP strawberry syrup and the Mandarin Orange wings taste like they are as plain as can be. As a side note, I've also tried to come here before with a group of friends for Karaoke on Saturday night, only to be told that the Karaoke equipment wasn't working. I'm sure there's more, but that's probably enough for you to get the picture. If you are staying at the nearby hotels or if you are looking for something in the area, just go straight to the Yardhouse at Westgate for an unforgettable Happy Hour! Update: I've been here a few more times for cheap beers and/ or their lousy wings. Buffalo Wild Wings is now open at Westgate and is a much better option for wings (especially on Tuesday and Thursdays for 60 cent specials).

Worst meal ever!!!!! Sooooo sssslllllllooooooowwwww!!!! Incomplete meal served. No attempt at basic service! Food was basic and over priced. Kids eat better in under privileged high schools. This placed is A MUST AVOID!!! I will never get these minutes of my life back!!! It only got 1star because yelp won't process a zero!!
(1)Ronnie S.
Very disappointed! Went for the advertised Sunday wing special price deal only to be told it was a dine in price only. That detail is not mentioned any where. The girl in there told me there was no way to enter that in the computer as a take out order. I need to mention that there was only a few cars outside, the place was basically empty. Needless to say I will not be going there again. Doesn't even deserve the one star but it wouldn't let me post without a star rating!

Was suggested by my hotel; was told it would be the quickest option. 57 minutes later, I had a cold pizza, in the wrong size and a warm salad. I had specifically ordered the 14" pizza so I would have leftovers for the next day. Thankfully, it was the smaller size since it had sat in the box for a very long time before delivered; as it was soggy. The Greek salad at $10 was extremely overpriced for the size that arrived. The flatbread served with the salad was hard and stale.
(1)Meathead Y.
Came in here before and wasn't greeted by anyone. Felt like a morgue. I've been to the native in Tempe and enjoyed it, this one not so much. After no hostess or server came around for a few minutes we ended up walking out the door. Oh well guess I'll stick to the Tempe location.
(1)Oliviah V.
My brother and I went here to attend a going away get together for one of our coworkers. We sat at the table for ten minutes before any of the waiters recognized us and when he did show up, he ignored us and claimed to have not seen us even though he stared straight at my brother and I. After all that was figured out we each ordered a glass of ice water and a 2 orders of wings. 1/2 pound BBQ boneless and 1/2 pound hot boneless. What did I end up paying for 2 waters, 5 tasteless hot wings, and 6 cold BBQ wings? I paid almost $30. When I asked why is was so high the waiter simply said to pay it and he'd explain afterword. He also gave HIMSELF a rather generous tip on top of the already ridiculous bill. I will not be going here again and neither will any of my family members.

We came here with 35+ of our other friends to celebrate a birthday. We made a reservation and we were giving an area near the bar. Since we had little kids and celebration a 17th bday, we requested to be moved to the outside. They heated up the patio and moved tables around for us. It was nice that the servers lined up tables inside on the window so our food will keep warm. The 2 servers did a wonderful job keeping our drinks filled and checking on us. The pizza and wings were good!!! It was fun, food was good, and service was nice.
