At first blush, Half Moon might seem to be strictly a “guys night out” kind of place. After all, pictures of half-exposed hineys are scattered throughout the establishment, the wait staff consists almost entirely of young and attractive women in form-fitting tank tops, and there’s nothing but sports on all the TVs. If you look past the obvious nods to man-cave culture, however, you’ll find that this is also one of the more appealing sports bars for the fairer sex as well. Perhaps it’s due to its proximity to the Biltmore (or even a menu that balances pub grub with such selections as the pear gorgonzola salad), but the establishment just feels classier than your run-of-the-mill sports bar. Patrons run the gamut from college kids and urban professionals to families with children and a slew of Alabama expats (the bar hosts a significant Crimson Tide contingent every Saturday during football season). With excellent happy hour specials and private party rooms, Half Moon is a great destination for groups large and small.

2009 | Best Wings

The folks at Half Moon are pretty cheeky — just get a look at all the plumber's cracks pictured on the restaurant's Web site. We love that. But there's one thing that Half Moon definitely takes seriously: wings. Nope, they don't joke around with... More >
2008 | Best Wings

Considering how many TVs are tuned to sports in this place, it's probably safe to say that it's always game day at Half Moon Sports Grill. But even if it weren't, we'd still come here just for the chicken wings. We get a hankering for a good... More >
2008 | Best Sports Bar, Central Phoenix

People living in Phoenix proper are spoiled. Two of our three major stadiums are practically in their backyards, and with that comes a whole bunch of marquee-name sports bars downtown. But where do Phoenicians go to catch a game when they can't... More >
2007 | BEST HALF-ASSED PARTY

Never has a little butt-crack been so sexy. Seriously. You'll literally see what we're talking about when you check out a Lunar Party at Half Moon Sports Grill. Once a month, women of all ages compete for the distinction of being a calendar girl... More >
2007 | BEST SPORTS BAR, CENTRAL PHOENIX

Despite the butt-cleavage theme, Half Moon Sports Grill is swankish enough to draw plenty of chicks, which, of course, makes for the best kind of sports bar there is: one where you might actually hook up during halftime. The grub, too, is not an... More >

My best friend came to visit me from california last week and we met up here. I had never been here before and got lost trying to find it, but it was well worth it, excellent food and drinks, and a great selection of beer on tap!

Right down the street from my place, this is a convenient sports bar with all the amenities and plus some. They have a ton of flat screen TVs and even a screen with games projected on to it. You can rent private rooms for you and your friends, sit at the bar or grab a booth. Happy hour specials are pretty great. If you're looking for a place to watch the game in comfort, then this is your place.

Coming to half moon with a group of friends is easy. We used to come here to have game nights. There's a room that you can reserve if you expect to have a larger group. Cheap beer and tv's all around so you can keep up with all the games

Considering how many TVs are tuned to sports in this place, it's probably safe to say that it's always game day at Half Moon Sports Grill. But even if it weren't, we'd still come here just for the chicken wings. We get a hankering for a good batch of wings more often than we'd like to admit, and at Half Moon, there's no need to keep track of how many we're actually eating. These are sold by the pound instead of the dozen, so it's easier for us to gorge on these plump, juicy snacks (almost) guilt-free. Seven kinds of sauces keep us happy, from sambal (hot sauce) and barbecue to Thai peanut and honey chipotle. And there's even a boneless version, all crispy, golden fried meat, no need to gnaw. Really, these scrumptious wings give us reason to cheer � and since it's always game day, no one will even mind if we do.
