I rarely feel compelled to write reviews, but my experience at Gracie’s Tax Bar in Phoenix was nothing short of a nightmare. Last night, what was meant to be a relaxing evening turned into a scam of epic proportions. Not only did they manage to “misplace” my credit card, but they also stole my beer—yes, you read that right. This isn’t just a case of poor service; it’s an outright robbery in broad daylight.
From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere reeked of incompetence and disregard for customer safety. The staff seemed more interested in covering up their mistakes than actually resolving them. When I raised my concerns, I was met with indifference and vague promises that went nowhere. Instead of a friendly, secure environment, I found myself in the middle of what can only be described as a scam.
The lack of proper security measures is astounding. In an establishment that supposedly caters to the public, it’s unacceptable to think that such blatant theft could occur without any checks or balances. I left feeling not only financially lighter but also deeply disappointed by a place that should have earned my trust.
Do yourself a favor: steer clear of Gracie’s Tax Bar. There are plenty of establishments in Phoenix that value their customers and take responsibility for ensuring a safe, enjoyable experience. This is one bar that has clearly lost sight of both basic hospitality and customer security. Avoid it at all costs!

Gracies tax bar is the best!! Good food and good drinks! Thanks Fernando for being the best In the biz!
I had a frustrating experience at Gracie's Tax Bar recently that I feel compelled to share. During our visit, one of our friends had a drink that was not sealed, and although she had only taken a small sip, the security guard's response was completely unwarranted. He rudely claimed he could deny us entry because of it.
It's disheartening that while some of our other friends have been let in under similar circumstances, we were treated so differently. The guard's attitude was unprofessional and condescending, making us feel unwelcome. Instead of handling the situation gracefully, he chose to flex his authority in a way that left us feeling frustrated and disappointed and embarrassed. He prompted another security guard to tell us to leave.
If I could give zero stars, I would. We were really looking forward to having a good night here.

Really enjoyed the vibe at Gracie's, drinks were good and decently priced, service was great, design was interesting and euphoric, and the music (controlled by a jukebox) was awesome. Definitely recommended.
