I had been wanting to try The Tipsy for months as the west valley is really missing a good wine bar. Hubby and I went with another couple on a Wednesday night at 6pm. Like most restaurants in Arizona the Tipsy is located in a strip mall but we were pleasantly surprised at the nice décor with pretty chandeliers though the openness did feel a little cool and they might try to lower the lighting to create a more intimate feeling and escape the 'we are located next to a Dairy Queen' feel. The menu offered not only wine but cocktails so we first ordered martinis and then wine for our second drink. The martinis were good but not an overly generous pour for $14. Their signature martini was on happy hour price for only $10 but it would have been nice on a slow mid-week to have more of the cocktails or wines on happy hour prices. We also ordered bruschetta boards which were very disappointing. It was nothing more then a very small piece of toast with jam and a few crumbles of topping. I suggest the owners visit Postinos to understand how to prepare bruschetta especially as Postino has now communicated they are opening in the west valley. The rest of the food was salads and sandwiches were average. The server did not suggest anything off the menu or seem particularly friendly and at one point a man stopped by our table who I assume might have been the manager but he only awkwardly said hello. I truly wanted to love The Tipsy and if you live close by I would give it a try as they will hopefully improve but for us living in north Peoria it was not worth the 30 minute drive.
It’s a slow Tuesday night, there is a small crowd of people enjoying their evening here. Inside a comfortable, clean, modern, feminine ambiance. I quite like it… Very cool light features, white walls, and comfortable seating. My cocktail was a tad bit too sweet for my liking… while my husband’s was da bomb. Ordered an appetizer and a couple small meals. Waitress was very observant. I’m thinking the poor reviews, due to service, seem to possibly be from an overwhelmed staff due to the popularity of this place.
Great space with a nice feel. Good wine list and happy hour menu. We'll be back!
I absolutely recommend this place to anyone who wants to sit back in a comfy chair and just enjoy themselves (especially after a work day!)The Tipsy martini as well at the maraschino martini are my favorites but you can’t go wrong with ANYTHING from this place. Customer service is always fabulous!
Great service. Great sharable plates. Very eclectic drinks menu. Happy hour 3-6.
Walking in was awkward because we stood at the door not sure if we were to seat ourselves or if someone would seat us (no hostess desk or sign to indicate), after standing around a man did finally come seat us. Menu had some good food and drink options but when food came out, everyone at the table was pretty underwhelmed. Small portions for big prices and the quality of the food was not to reflect the prices. For example, my husband ordered the French dip and there was barely any meat, the ajus was watered down, with like 10 lays potatoes chips thrown on the side. The charcuterie board was tiny. We had a party of 4 so it went really quickWe continued to watch people walk in and stand at the door looking confused.The lighting was nice and the overall service was good, we had our waitress and a man (I presume is the owner) checking in on us and clearing empty dishes regularly
Had an amazing time here. I have never been before and came with friends from out of town. The food was great, drinks were perfect, and the staff is super attentive and friendly. Thanks to Michael who sat with us and talked about the flatbread and creation process behind it; very informative and interesting to learn that side of the business. The Tipsy has such a great aspheric and atmosphere. I would definitely come again, and highly recommend.
Nice, comfortable bar. The owner is very nice and I appreciate the time he spent with me while I was waiting on my no show date.
Nice atmosphere in and out, liked the outdoor seating. Liked the menu selections. We went at happy hour and it was a bit strange that we weren’t offered or told about any happy hour specials or given any hh menus. After a while we asked and even then the server seemed a bit hesitant to share them. Table next to us seemed to have the same issue. Despite the hesitancy the service was efficient and friendly. All the food selections were very good and we also enjoyed the drinks, however we did feel it was a bit overpriced. As with most restaurants we received one menu for two people, I always think this is difficult as we’re sitting across from each other, so We can’t read it at the same time and they usually ask for the drink order fairly quickly. Even with Covid, it seems a small issue to just print an extra piece of paper so that both people can have a menu.
Not a great wine selection. Food was mediocre. Beautiful inside tho.
