Best Gastro Pubs in Mesa

Food was very good!!! Wish there were more booths. Mostly there are tables and chairs Service was a little slow for the number of customers. Disappointed in staff. They didn’t do anything to make you feel welcome and some didn’t seem happy to be working there. Staff should smile more and talk to customers.

Wally’s American Gastropub? Oh, they’ve got it down to an art form. This place doesn’t just serve food—it serves *moments*. The kind of spot where the staff remembers your name, your drink, and maybe even your mood. And let’s talk about that Happy Hour: glasses of Llama Malbec so good you’ll want to write home about it, if you weren’t already too busy savoring every sip. Now, the food. Oh, the food. The BLT Iceberg Wedge is a masterpiece of balance—hickory bacon that crackles with smoky perfection, vine tomatoes that taste like they were plucked five minutes ago, pickled red onions that bite back just enough, and a creamy bleu cheese dressing that ties it all together like a bow on a damn fine gift. And the Chicken Parmesan? Forget what you know. This isn’t some soggy, overcooked travesty. It’s a revelation. Whole milk mozzarella that stretches like it’s showing off, vine-ripened marinara that sings with freshness, a sprinkle of basil, and just enough red pepper flakes to keep things interesting. Oh, and it’s all handmade with durum wheat, because of course it is. This is Wally’s, after all—they don’t cut corners. The vibe? Quietly sophisticated, like that friend who always knows exactly what to say but never feels the need to shout it. It’s the kind of place where you can unwind, indulge, and feel like you’ve stumbled into a secret that everyone should know but somehow doesn’t. Yet. So, yeah, I’ll be back. Soon. And if you’ve got any sense, you will too. Wally’s isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a destination. And trust me, you want to be on this journey.

Always excellent food, happy hour wine & bacon popcorn. Chopped salad, always a go to.
