“Had the pleasure of trying out Tox Bar Lounge last Friday night. Such a wonderful dinner experience, complete with a smoky old fashioned. Will definitely be coming back!”

“A thick juicy burger, with fresh, crisp toppings.
It's a bar and a burger joint welded together. And it makes a great combination.
The Happy Hour deals are basically adding a free beer to your meal - a $5 savings as drafts are $5 during Happy Hour.
I had a great waitress that took great care of me. She aimed to please.
I ate the double cheese burger (added a fried egg), fries, side salad, and a couple of XX beers.”

“The young lady who waited on me was so nice and helpful was great ?!! I would have gave a 5 star but it was the first time I have been there ! I will be going back ??

Parking: At bash's store inside.

Wheelchair accessibility: Again at bashas' store they had tables that you can pull up to.”

“We held our wedding and reception at Keeler's in October and it was an amazing experience! The staff were very accommodating and worked with us to move our event inside due to the rain. Our guests loved the food and drinks. The Agave Swave was a hit along with the Old Fashioned. The atmosphere was perfect and everyone chit chatted around the bar while we had live music and dancing. We can't recommend Keeler's enough! Big shout out to Julia Fox and Sonny for coordinating and making our day perfect!”

“Lovely cafe! The fireplace adds to the beautiful ambience!”

“Amazing food! I have always had friendly staff members. Perfect lunch after a round of golf or dinner for a night out. 10/10 recommend!”

“​My wife and I stayed at The Boulders and had breakfast at PalloVerde. While the resort was busy due to a wedding on the grounds, we initially experienced some communication hiccups with our drink order and a long wait without service after an inquiry.
​However, when my wife spoke with the Food and Beverage Manager,Hridesh Sah,he stepped in immediately and completely turned the experience around. He took charge, corrected our drinks, covered our breakfast, and offered a complimentary second drink to make things right. The food itself was genuinely outstanding—I had a Monte Cristo sandwich that was the absolute best I’ve ever had, and my wife's breakfast was prepared to perfection.
​What really stood out was the incredible service recovery. The manager checked in on us multiple times to ensure everything was wonderful, and even our server came back later to apologize sincerely for an off moment, which we completely understood and appreciated. True hospitality isn't just about avoiding mistakes; it's about how you handle them when they happen, and the team here handled it with absolute class. Highly recommend!”
