Let me start by saying that I am a huge Zipp's fan (as a chain) overall. That being said, this location is not on par with other Zipp's locations in terms of food quality / taste. \n\nMy husband and I come here often to hit up happy hour and the service in in the bar area is always great but the food is just missing that certain something. At first we thought we were finally just getting burnt out on Zipp's food - we spent the better half of our courtship eating and drinking at Zipp's Camelback and hit up the 16th St. location often while we lived in the north valley. But whenever we visit a location other than Ocotillo we are reminded of what the food should taste like - the wings taste are more succulent, the burgers are bigger and juicier and the fries are crispier. \n\nI am not sure what Ocotillo is doing wrong in the back of the house (old fryer oil? Incorrect wing sauce recipe? Too small of burger proportions?) but we will no longer visit this location and will drive a bit further to Gilbert / Warner to ensure we are tasting the Zipp's quality of food that we have grown to love over the past seven years.
