somewhat nicer than the others in town... neat-o upstairs seating and red brick all around reminded me of a fire station... or, at least something with some character/charm. everything is on par with the other spots (food, beer, service) so... not great but nice to have around after golf...

Solid location near the theater and shopping center that runs along I-10. I would never expect a RB to be in this area, especially since it’s never crowded, but who am I to complain? The food, service, and beer all fine. Nothing to complain or cheer about, but certainly nice to have nearby.

Service is bad. Food and beer are subpar compared to Scottsdale location

This is my homebase Rock Bottom. It has easy access from I-10 as I am coming in from Tucson. Very tasty Beers, and I think Great Food. The servers are all great folks, and the place is very nice and clean. The Beers may not wow you but they are well brewed and true to style.

Stick to the bar or bar area. Service can be real iffy. I think the beer quality is better at the other valley locations. The desserts are awesome though. The inside is real nice, great decor.

We went to Rock Bottom in Ahwatukee as part of our Great Arizona Brewery Shock and Awe Tour. The first thing we noticed was the red brick walls, clad with numerous oversized Arizona-themed art and photography, and the high ceiling that lead our eyes to the small upper-level seating area. Some other eye catchers are the large beer tanks situated above the bar and the huge chalk board, hanging over the bar, listing all 9 of the house beers complete with name, style and alcohol content. Each beer’s name and information is printed in its own bright shade of chalk written large enough to read from the opposite side of the restaurant. I ordered the sampler tray which included 9 different beers served in generous whiskey-sized glasses. The waiter set the sampler glasses on an accompanying menu which offered even more information about each beer. We also ordered a plate of nachos which were delicious, but not quite as good as the nachos we had at the Streets of New York.
