Decent food (for bar food) Service was slow. Waiter more interested in talking to staff rather than checking up on us or getting us more drinks. Not too big of a deal.
Would probably go back but its average but better than some of the awful food at some sports bars in the Valley. Â Nice atmosphere.
I was excited to come back to RnR since I haven't been in a few months. I was very disappointed by the food, the service seemed meh, and the DJ's music selection was all over the place (could be a good thing) but he chose all of the bad songs from their respective genre. I had the vanilla bean pancakes and they were dry and tasted a little like the bread you get at church. My friends had the green chili pulled pork tacos and pulled pork platter which they found to be very bland.
There are many places you can go for brunch, this has sadly fallen to the bottom of my list.
If you're coming for any reason other than bottomless mimosas/blood marys, you are a fool. When RnR opened up and offered the bottomless drinks with brunch it seemed like everywhere in old town followed suit (no complaints). It's best to come here with the intention of day drinking or when you had a late night the night before and you're looking for some shampoo effect action. I don't think the food is really very good at all (hence the 3 stars), but I look past it for the mimosas. Some servers are really good about filling up the bottomless drinks a lot and some aren't, in which case you just have to remind them, or chug every time they come to your table. Staff has always been really friendly when I've gone. Advice though...if you're not feeling like getting your drink on at breakfast, you're gonna hate yourself for going, hate all of your friends, and never want to go back (at least that's what I hear). Get here as early as you can though, or else you will be waiting a while and the clock will be ticking for the bottomless mimosa cut off. I've had a lot of fun times here.
Bottom Line: You're gonna be drunk, it's gonna be loud, and hopefully you didn't make any plans for productivity the rest of the day.
Had a groupon voucher for the mint but they quit serving dinner so said it would be valid at RnR. Â Decided to give it a go this past Sunday with my boyfriend and my son for lunch/brunch. Â Huge error in judgment. Â If you love loud music where you can't hear yrself speak and love crowds go there on a Sunday. Â My only hope is that I will be able to go during the week for a 'quieter' lunch to use this groupon. Â My take on this place without having eaten there - catering to the 21-30 crowd and probably not interested in being a serious restaurant (where people actually choose to go eat not just to people watch). Â Looking for a good place to eat with solid service, nice atmosphere and good food - Italian grotto, 2 blocks north on scottsdale.
Review Source:I rarely go to a new place without "yelping" it but Bandera was closed for lunch. Â So we rolled the dice to find a really great lunch. Service was excellent, atmosphere was casual and relaxed. Â Half price wine on Tuesday. Â Food was great. Â We split Ahi Tuna tacos then a blue cheese burger. Â LOVE jicama tortillas and the sweet potato tots with a hint of salty cheese on them... worth the trip!
Review Source:I made a return trip with my family for breakfast.  The server was very attentive and the food was still fantastic.  Even better, RnR is now on local dines (<a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.localdines.com%2Fphoenix%3Fref%3D19485&s=3b565d2feddc9611106a5f381cdfc79375def3cf80dc25cda3383cd62ceed3ed" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.localdines.co…</a>) with a $30 or $15 gift certificate.  A great way to save at this Scottsdale hot spot!
Review Source:(Lyrics - Eddie Money - Take Me Home Tonight)
Take me to the RnR tonight
I don't want to let you go till I have a bite
Take me to the RnR tonight
Listen honey, just like Ronnie sang, "I'm a little tipsy...oh oh oh"
I get a bruschetta plate with a glass of wine
I get a hangover (fries) I hate to eat alone
I need some company, so I called my friends
To keep me warm when the cold winds blow (out in the patio!)
I can hear your belly
I say we start to order!
Take me to the RnR tonight
The RnR is the only bar with an upper deck on Scottsdale Road; point is you can't miss it! Â Parking can be a headache here so I would definitely recommend finding a spot in one of the lots on the East end. Â
The RnR is a pretty hip place. Â It has that industrial feel since everything reminds me of a steel factory inside, minus the sparks and welding mask! Â They generally have live music or DJ on site, which is pretty cool. Â
Nightly food and drink specials! Â I came on a Tuesday night so it was purchase a plate of bruschetta and your bottle of wine cost $15. Â Not a bad deal I guess, but I hate to just stick to wine all night. Â RnR is so far the only place I notice with Beer cocktails; if you don't know look it up. Supposedly, this is a hot new thing to do. Â Beer with a mix of liquor. Â I myself so far am not a fan since I like my beer ... beer and my cocktails ... well you get the point. Â However, I would recommend you try and let your palates do the judging. Â
Along with the bruschetta, we ordered some Hangover Fries, Brussel Sprouts, Ahi Tacos, and finally a burger. Â We didn't think the Hangover Fries was that great, but we've had the Animal Fries before and they were much better so I would stick with that. Â The Brussel Sprouts I would have them fried with the bacon; has more taste that way. Â The Ahi Tacos were the highlight of the nights. Â Nicely seared tuna on a jicama tortilla! Â YUMMY! Â I think I could eat 50 of these and be satisfied! Â The burger itself was okay at best. Â However, this place is definitely a burger joint since half the menu was burgers or sandwiches. Â
Overall, a cool experience and a hip place to hangout. Â I think the live music is cool and the service was good! Â If you need a place to hang, well you found one! - Enjoy!
Impromptu stop for a late lunch - sat outside on the patio with the busy Scottsdale Road traffic and pedestrians to watch. Â It's a good thing we had some entertainment because the food was a little slow considering there were only a few people there.
I had the Grilled Chicken Sandwich, which came with garlic aioli sauce, red pepper topping, and a pesto base. Â it was very tasty, would order again. Â I also ordered a filthy martini, which is billed as a dirty martini and blue cheese filled olives - with so much olive juice it's filthy! Â Strong, but a slight disappointment as only one of three olives were actually filled with blue cheese.
The place was filled with your typical Scottsdale "daddy's credit card" young adults.  We had a party of 5 (including me), but the prices were so ridiculous that we decided to order 3 meals and share them.  Two fish taco meals and a sandwich.  The tacos were about the size of a hockey puck and had no flavor and the sandwich was soggy.  Not to  mention our server was a dumb blonde who couldn't get her beverages straight to save her life because she had also been drinking.
On a positive note though, great location and interesting building for a restaurant.
But, Â We left and won't try it again.
If you're in Scottsdale, make it your business to eat here ~ that is, if you can get in. Â Their breakfast is amazing. Â From the fresh squeezed juice to the multigrain pancakes. Â Everything we ordered was fresh and excellent. Â The waitstaff is very nice and helpful too ~ they're all smiling and in a great mood. Â You really feel happy to be here. Â A great date or hang out spot. Â A must do!
Review Source:So if you are in Scottsdale and day party/morning party anywhere else then you are doing yourself a disservice. They have amazing/bottomless mimosas and bloody marys so it's the perfect place to go when you are hungover from your Friday or Saturday night festivities and need a drink to nurse your hangover. Their food is also pretty decent but the drinks are definitely where the money's at. Also, Saturday and Sunday mornings are happening, there's a dj and a tonnnnn of people. So, if you are trying to party before 3 pm, this is where you want to be at, trust me
Review Source:cinco de mayo at RnR....what were we expecting? it was packed with a capital P! just when i think i've worked out enough, 50 dudes are inside wearing tank tops with gigantic biceps. and the women? damn ass cheeks hanging out everywhere!
at the bar, a good 10 minutes to get drinks, meanwhile every hot chic who saunters up to the bar gets a drink right away....nothing new, but i'm getting too old for this scottsdale shenanigans.
we had 1 drink each and left. loud.....can you hear me? the place is LOUD!
I stopped in to meet up with friends for brunch around 12:30 on a Saturday. I was informed over an hour wait and they would inform me via text when our table was ready. There was a DJ on the patio which was cool. As I waited I was reminded of why I am no longer in college and thrilled about it. I found it to be rather young. My friends joined me and we had a round before departing. I realized later I didn't cancel our request for a table but I never did get that text message. Oh well. Lessons learned.
Review Source:Disclaimer, this is a review from January. I just noticed it didn't get posted.
I have been here many times and never been disappointed. The food is typically better then average, service average, and prices decent. Tonight was a new experience.
We were sat outside on the patio in the couch seating right after the start of Thursday night football. Â Shortly after, we were asked for drinks and appetizers. Then again, in a very acceptable amount of time, our server brought our drinks and a runner brought our appetizer. So far so good.
All went downhill after this. It soon became apparent that our waiter had to many tables, so he made a decision to ignore the patio. A runner brought our food out, and the server took our appetizer plate away, but left without asking if we would like our empty beers filled, let alone ever once offer a water. I decided to start eating to keep my food from getting cold, but after 15-20 more minutes without seeing him, I went to the bar to order. The bartender went and got my server. Instead of seeing us, he went to the table next to us to get their drinks. I had to get up again and follow him to the bar to order from him.
Our drinks came later with no apology and our plates were cleared. I sat another 15 minutes waiting to ask for the check, but the server never came. I went and found the server, followed him to the register, and paid him on the spot.
I have not been back since.
The HH Ahi Tacos are good and a good deal. Â The 'tortilla' is a thin rice sheet, which is nice. Â However, there are only 4 items on their food HH menu, and it gets old.
However, they are charging $6 for a bottle of O'Douls!
They don't get the MLB Package, so unless a game is on the one MLB channel, you're out of luck.
The bathrooms are stinky and have high school bathroom-type faucets that you have to press down repeatedly to get water. Â It's a disconnect from the really nice sink and a pain.
Never seen this place more than 20% full for HH. Â They're doing something wrong.
I've been to RnR about 4 times total, including on their opening night. Service has always been an issue - their staff seems to care a lot more about socializing and primping themselves than they do about actually waiting on their clientelle. The food is alright, I can't say that there's anything special or memorable about any of their dishes. It's just glammed up bar food - nothing that tastes any better or worse than the 10+ restaurants around Scottsdale that have the exact same concept. The breaking point for me was when I ate a chicken sandwich here one night, and came down with the most awful food poisoning that I've ever experienced. 3 days of excrutiating stomach pain and not being able to keep anything down was the straw that broke the camel's back for me about RnR - I will never return here.
Review Source:My friend and I wanted to go to dinner and she's been talking about this restaurant nonstop. Let's just say it was not what I expected at all.
My friend arrived there before I did. Nobody acknowledged her for about 15 minutes so she ended up seating herself. After I arrived we both actually ordered our drinks and entrees at the same time. She ordered the vegetarian tacos which came with a custom soy sauce. She asked the waiter what were the ingredients which he had no knowledge of and said he would bring it on the side for her. I ordered the chicken tacos and a glass of the Irony Pinor Noir while she ordered a peach ale beer.
First, it took 20 minutes for us to get our drinks. We sat by the bar so we noticed that they were just sitting on the counter for a good 10-15 minutes before we even received them. When he finally brought us our drinks, he apologized and said there was a delay because they ran out of my wine that I ordered. My friend told him that's unlikely since we've seen our glasses on the counter, FILLED for the past 20 minutes.
My friend then wanted to get some tortillas on the side. Our waiter did not come back to our table so she literally walked up to the bar to order her tortillas. Not to mention she never received the custom soy sauce on the side that she requested.
All in all, I was very disappointed. When i go to a restaurant there are two things that I look for . Good food and good customer service. It was a very unfortunate experience for me because I really enjoyed my food and my wine tasted remarkable. Such a disappointment for such a nice establishment with good food!
This is a great place to go for your bottomless mimosas/bacon bloody marys. The employees have a great attitude for our party of 15 and always kept our mimosas topped. We had a wide variety of their breakfast menu and enjoyed the wide variety of foods offered. My top food picks would be the biscuits and gravy, bacon brussels sprouts, and breakfast burrito.
Review Source:Came here for Saturday brunch with some girlfriends. First off, I do love the patio area. High top tables and couches for a relaxed atmosphere. We opted for the 'endless' mimosas (and I had the Bloody Mary's) The menu was pretty much bar food...nothing great, but not bad. I had the breakfast tacos (one egg and potato, one egg and bacon and one egg and chorizo) They were not bad, but would have been better with corn tortillas or smaller flour ones because there was a LOT of tortilla for the taco! The only other thing that was irritating was the very LOUD music played by a DJ. Impossible to talk without yelling.
Service was great and we enjoyed the morning. A great spot for AZ in the spring time!
This was a really nice sports bar in Old town Scottsdale with great people and atmosphere.
The hostesses were really nice and helpful to accommodate our party of 6.
I wish I could say the same about the service. Â Our server was absolutely horrible. Â It took us about 10 minutes for him to even greet us. Â After we received our drinks and food, it was the last time I saw our server. Â We needed refills on our alcohol but its tough when no one even tries to help. Â When we asked another server if she could help us out, she said it wasn't her section. Â
We wanted to spend money but it is difficult to when no one wants to attend to our group. Â
2 stars for the host staff and a thumbs down for the service.
This place is bumpin for brunch. Â A good spot in Tempe to watch some football/march madness or just hang out with friends. Â The selection of food was delish. Â The Buffalo Chicken Sandwich. Â Everytime I have went it has been busy and packed...We sat outside, its been warmer and our waiter was there to greet us even though he was juggling a couple tables.
i suggest you Get the 4oz. Flight of Four craft beers...bam! Â Yelp hooked me up with a discount since I checked in here...
Sweet As!
My list of requirements for a sports bar is pretty short--attentive servers (particularly behind the bar), lots of TVs; reasonably priced bar food; preferably big space with a couple of team affiliations. Â The food prices at RnR seem a little high for Scottsdale, but the beer prices are decent and the space is huge with plenty of large-screen HDTVs. Â The servers we had on the two occasions I was there this weekend were always lurking to help with refills, which was nice; I got the impression that RnR caters more to the club/nightlife scene than an actual sports bar scene, so it was an interesting mix of W Hotel clubgoers sunning themselves on the second floor balcony and people in sports jerseys watching NCAA tourney games. Â (It helps that there's a DJ spinning loud pop music all the time.)
I'm a fan overall, but don't quote me on that about the food. Â The two guys I went with tried the pretzel bites and the fish tacos and both reviews came back as a "meh."
This was a fun atmosphere for a large group of girls, great location. Â We were seated at an extra long table on the patio...liked that the table and chairs were pub height. Â It was a Saturday nigh, so pretty crowded, not a lot of space to move around. Â There was a DJ spinning some old school favorites (think Arrested Development - Mr. Wendal, Next - Too Close, etc.) and most everybody there was groovin' a little at one point or another. Â
After checking in on Yelp, I claimed an offer for a half-priced drink and went with the 4-beer sampler...every one of them was enjoyable. Â Everyone's food smelled amazing, although I didn't eat anything myself. Â We were celebrating a friend's birthday and they brought out a GIGANTIC Cinnabon with candles for her. Â Plenty enough to share, that's for sure! Â
The inside bar area isn't very spacious, but like I said, the location is excellent for starting out the night in Old Town Scottsdale. Â Have fun!
Looking around the area for a place to grab some brunch we came across this spot. It is two levels and seemed really busy so we thought why not?
Espresso based drinks: Don't bother here. It tastes like it came from one of those push button deals. Just not worth the money.
Brunch: Sorta bland and middle of the road. I got the breakfast sammy and added avocado to it. It was OK but really small and lacking in flavor. I will say they gave a me a ton of avocado so good on them for that.
Service: We were upstairs and the service was pretty bad. Our waitress was nice but we found out drinks empty a lot and just felt overall that we should have been checked in on.
I know people rave about the brunch and bottomless champagne here but other spots have better deals and I saw that the mimosas were small and full of oj. I guess if you are in a larger group and get attention it is worth it, otherwise I would hit somewhere else up.
It its favor this spot does have a lot of people, and looks good for groups. I just like better food with my drinks.
Great place to go to if you like American food.  I like a good burger every once in a while and enjoyed the  RnR burger.  I split it with a friend of mine and ordered the fries to go with it.  I kind of wished I hadn't shared my meal.  I could have finished the whole thing.  Service was fine. Will be back.
Review Source:The food is good and the bloody marys aren't shabby. Be warned, they come with a slice of bacon in them though. However, this place is great for brunch on Sundays because they have bottomless bloody marys and mimosas. Just be prepared to wait quite a while for a table as they fill up fast here on the weekends.
Also, not really a family establishment. Last time I was here, a girl got so drunk by 11 am that she started dancing on the bar.
Great and attentive service on a Sunday for Brunch!
I had the breakfast sandwich with a side of home fries....slayed!
Bottomless mimosas is a star in itself, and the waitress was always on it when it came to refills for the group.
Music was bumping, and it feel like a club on a Sunday, I definitely enjoyed myself, maybe a little too much with the mimosas but all in all i give this place 4 solid stars..
ILL BE BACK.
Have been there before, but am reviewing my most recent stop on a Saturday morning. Â I ate some amazing food! Â A bloody mary is considered "food," right? Â And like most of the other bar/restaurants around Old Town, it can get busy... but that's why you go to a lot of those places... or maybe I am the only one who likes a crowd? Â At least it's a pretty attractive crowd. Â
Also enjoyed the Hangover Fries quite a bit... although I swear I wasn't hungover. Â That much. Â And I assume before naming these Hangover Fries, they also considered calling them Blocked Arteries Leading to a Massive Heart Attack Fries... but that name was probably too long to fit on the menu. Â Anyway, you should probably share these with someone.
We sat outside and the sun was getting pretty hot, so the server (or bartender?) lowered the sunscreen for us. Â Can't beat that for quality service!
I got to try RnR on the roughest brunch day of them all: New Years day.
Think about it. Its the morning after the biggest celebratory night of the year. The air is filled with alcohol and/or puke breath, walk of shamer(s) and hungover folk that either need to desperately jump on the booze horse with a Bloody Mary or desperately need some greasy food to survive the worst (and first!) hungover day of the year.
Needless to say it is a tough day for any brunch restaurant, but RnR managed to survive moderately well.
Arriving at the busiest brunch time ever, 11am, RnR gave us a little buzzer and told us the wait time would be approximately an HOUR. Since we figured everything would be packed, we decided to wait around and hope they would speed up the process. We went upstairs while we waited just because it was too cold outside and too busy by the bar. Unfortunately the staircases smelled like 3 homeless men had fought and died in their own pile of vomit and the RnR crew had forgotten to clean it up. Talk about disgusting.
Bringing in my "fuck it" mentality. We go to the patio area and find an empty couch in front of the TV. We figured we could chill out while we waited since no one was being seated there. Within minutes we had a server approach us and take our order. Score. Completely bypassed the hour wait and the buzzer. Me: 1, RnR: 0.
The outside location was perfect even for a freezing cold day: roof heater right above me, comfy couches and tables and the big flat screen right in front of me showing the Michigan game. Our server was super nice and diligent and for as busy as it was, he was sufficiently speedy. I ordered a sun dried and goat cheese scramble with house potatoes and toast. The scramble was decent (nothing to write home about) but lacked a bit of flavor/spice/basic salt and pepper. My latte came out cold but our server was nice enough to take it back and bring me a nice freshly-brewed one. My company didn't care for his breakfast tacos. I guess scrambled eggs in tortilla are not as foodgasmic as you would hope they would be.
I get that RnR is more about the hang-out, clubby-music environment that Scottsdale brunchers aim for. Nothing wrong with that, I would just prefer my food to be a tad more elevated and for my staircases to be a tad less puke-y. I know, I'm such a picky bastard.
I came here with for brunch on New Year's Day with a dozen people, and the place was packed. Â The music was pretty loud, so you have to shout to your friends if you want them to hear you. Â It was amusing to see that some customers looked like they were still wearing their NYE outfits with their stilettos, shiny dresses, and suits. Â I love people watching in Old Town! Â Anyways, although our group had a reservation, we still had to wait 30-45 minutes until we were actually seated. Â But I definitely didn't mind, because the crowd was fun, and bottomless mimosas are $15. Â Apologetic for the wait, the restaurant manager came over to our table on the patio and gave our table free appetizers and tickets to a nearby club. Â Score!
I ordered the Egg White Turkey Scramble that included apple turkey sausage, roasted red peppers, spinach and scrambled eggs, home fries, and toast. Â Prices are on the mid to high side, but don't forget that this is Scottsdale. Â My dish was light, flavorful, and was perfect alongside my mimosa. Â For appetizers, our table enjoyed the Jalapeno Mac n'Cheese that consisted of cavatappi pasta tossed in a spicy jalapeno cheese sauce and topped with parmesan bread crumbs---it was scrumptious. Â We also enjoyed he Hangover Fries, which were parmesan fries loaded with cheddar cheese, jalapenos, tomatoes and bacon topped with two eggs sunnyside up with sour cream. Â Wow---I had never had eggs on top of my fries before, and the name "Hangover Fries" is perfect. Â Our table scarfed these down, and some people claimed that their hangovers were already subsiding!
I was impressed with the staff, because they were on their A-Game. Â They didn't forget anything when we asked, and were just great. Â I definitely plan on coming back, because RnR rules!
Chill spot! Â Great vibe. Â When the weather is nice out the patio is a really relaxing spot to have some drinks. Â When it's cold they have heaters on the patio area.
Happy hour is good. Â Drinks are stiff and taste great.
Good place to grab some food and drinks before you hit the clubs in the area. Â Good service.
the "Forget About Philly Cheesesteak" is delicious!
