Reviews for Pier 54 in Tempe, AZ
It's the ambiance, that's the reason to go here. Beautiful view and nice live jazz (Weds). Read reviews saying service wasn't... good, but we had no problems with our service. Nice evening!! Read more
I had very high expectations! The restaurant was ok and the menu didn’t have many options! The view is very nice though! Our... server was also friendly and attentive. Read more
Ive been dying to come here for quite some time. Did an impromptu visit and, hate to say I wasn’t super impressed. I ordered... bubbles, (no complaints there) and they kept coming. Which brings me to the great service. Our server was attentive and veryfriendly. My partner ordered the regular Mac and cheese. It arrived cold; not warm at all. It was runny and very bland. Heordered an old fashion—which was a mistake, as it came with regular ice and it was almost all alcohol. However, I’m going togive this place another chance. I ordered the grilled Brussel sprouts and cauliflower dish—which is the main reason I’llcome back. Absolutely delicious; perfect crisp, perfectly flavored. I’ll come back just for that. Read more
Appetizers be were pretty yummy. Ordered a coffee it was cold, second round was perfect! Then we ordered unlimited mimosas, not... bad bad every additional drink was $2 extra..... So not really unlimited. Read more
Wow, not just the view but the food and service! We had bottomless Bloody Mary's (made perfect each time) and the goat cheese... lamb burger with fries. Food is excellent, lamb burger were cooked to perfection! Great portion size. Will definitely come backhere again! Read more
How fortunate are the residents who live around this little gem! Totally random pick for lunch and so happy we found Pier 54.... Friendly and very attentive staff. Actually couldn't believe how many staff members were working and buzzing all around. Neverhad a wait for anything. Jaiden took care of us and couldn't have done a better job all the way around. Jaiden paid closeattention but knew when to stop by as opposed to interrupting. Our table had the SW Burger, Chicken Cubano and Panini... we allloved our food. Great value for the amount of food. Drinks are very reasonable with a great selection of taps, wine and fullbar. Snagged the last piece of tiramisu which was great! Food quality was very unexpected and honestly when we walked in and sawthe view we said "if the food is halfway decent then we're in luck. Great views of the lake, birds, boaters, little island andwater feature. Perfectly situated for amazing sunsets as well. Emily, the manager' visited our table and made us feel likeregulars. Honestly feels like your in the Midwest dining lakeside. Complete gem and diamond in the rough. We will be back andoften!! BTW, the bathrooms are community bathrooms and are no reflection on this amazing little lakeside gem!! Don't let any ofthe previous bad reviews steer you away. If you're a good patron and appreciate being fortunate to dine out... you will lovethis place. It's everything it should be and more.... Thank you Jaiden.... ? above the "i" Read more
Decided to pop in for dinner before a movie and had the most amazing experience. Great drinks, yummy food, gorgeous views,... fabulous live music, and efficient friendly service. Kind of wish we didn't have the movie to go to so we could stay, but wewill definitely be back! Read more
Woo hoo Saturday afternoon delights!! Ok we have stopped in here before for an event but never really has the chance to just sit... back and enjoy. Today we did just that, after hitting the gym the wife was craving a water side chill. Well this is the onlyplace in my area that came to mind so lunch and water side checked off Now I am a big ceaser salad person so when it comes tothe perfect salad it has a few factors 1. Is the lettuce ???? crisp, chilled, fresh 2. Ratio of dressing to the salad is iteven 3. Whatever protein you add is the ratio even to the total size 4. Cheese is it fresh and even ratio 5. Last but not leastfor a true ceaser the croutons are they baked and have flavor. So many times they never have flavor Well today I found a 5/5Ceaser salad!!! Well done guys!! The wife had the goat cheese burger protein style (no bun) and she said it was 4.5/5 statementwas just a little less on the goat cheese. Ok so why didn’t they get the last star ??? The drinks need work, Mai tai was ALLjuice and the old fashion well no one likes a fruit salad in the bottom of a real old fashion So all in all we will be backgreat little chill and hang spot especially if you just want to get the appetizers (Brussels sprouts) We will be back !!!
