K O’Donnell’s Sports Bar and Grill has been a family-owned sports bar in North Scottsdale since 2005. KO’s was founded by legendary poker player Kevin O’Donnell, who sold it to his daughter Jennifer in 2013. Jenn has helped establish the bar as a great place for regulars who often refer to it as Scottsdale’s’ “Neighborhood Cheers”.

Jenn has done well to grow the K O’Donnell’s legacy by introducing a menu of great food with fresh, quality ingredients coupled with a drink menu and beer lineup that makes it one of the top sports bars in Scottsdale. K O’Donnell’s is known for their great food but also has over 70 TVs inside and out, so that fans of any team or any sport can catch their game replete with personal audio on a table set box. At KO’s there literally is not one bad seat in the house.

    Food was very good, large burgers cooked to requested doneness, juicy w/ excellent toppings.nice buttered and toasted rolls Potato strings were awesome. Waitress gave us great recommendations. Margaritas were not bad. Hated that we’re seated next to the kitchen door. It was not crowded and we had made a reservation, plenty of other seating was available.

    Horrible experience. Waited 10 minutes or so before we ordered drinks. Wait another 15 minutes or so for the drinks to come, the waitress blaming the bar for losing the ticket. Order an appetizer which was chips and queso and that took WAY longer than expected. Eventually put in our food order. About 20-25 minutes later the waitress asks us if we are ready to order food. Completely disregarding that we had already ordered 30 minutes ago. Even more concerning that she thought leaving us sit there for 30 minutes without ordering was okay. Food came out eventually and it was good. No complaints on food. The most frustrating part of the whole visit that topped the already poor experience is the fact we sat at the table for 35 minutes with cleared plates before we were brought our check. Waitress blamed the bar for our drinks. Kitchen for our long food times. Explained to us how hard it is to keep people in the high turnover hospitality industry. The restaurant was probably 50-60% capacity. Not that busy. And she only came to our table maybe once every 30 minutes. Forgot we ordered food, and blamed everyone but herself for a miserable experience. Will not return and do not recommend

    Went to dinner with my husband. Saw our waitress maybe a total of 2 times. My husbands food came and he was satisfied but my food took over an hour to come out…. So my super pregnant self had to sit there sharing his food waiting on my salmon….. waitress didn’t even bother to get us drink refills. Honestly very very disappointed and do not plan on returning. The place wasn’t even very busy only a few tables were filled. Just overall a terrible experience and will definitely not be returning….. his food was great but mine was non existent….. I would have been a little more understanding if the waitress bothered to even stop by and ask how everything was or refill drinks or anything…. Or if the place was actually busy but it really wasn’t. I just don’t understand why it took over an hour to cook a piece of salmon and the salmon wasn’t even a big piece it was actually very underwhelmingly small….

    Loved it Not pretentious. Staff were friendly, accommodating, efficient. Great tasting salads, esp the steak and feta Great chicken wings, some of the best I have ever enjoyed. Loads of sauce options. We had Honey hot, bourbon bbq and Thai chili sriracha. All good. Great value. If you want to watch sports, the tv screens are all over but yet if you aren’t interested they aren’t in your face. Perhaps it would be different during the Super Bowl!!

    We dined here to watch the USA World Cup Match! The restaurant was packed, loud and so much fun energy! The staff was wonderful and remained cool and calm with all the tables they serviced. Good took longer then it would of on any other given day. But that was to be expected. We will try to return and watch another World Cup game while we are in Scottsdale.

    It was my first time eating at the restaurant since 2020. Been here before and always enjoyed our meals and the variety of items on the menu, fun atmosphere, great service. I called ahead to be sure we could sit on the patio as my dad is apprehensive still to eat indoors, Made my reservation though Open Table but called the restaurant to confirm. The hostess was so helpful and secured us a patio table... a lot to ask on a Saturday for brunch! The service was friendly, busy and kind. Personally I LOVED seeing dogs, babies and people of all ages! They even served giant dog bowls of water for fur guests! Very cool when a lot of restaurants are starting to turn away from that. It was a pleasant experience and dad enjoyed himself. It was LOUD and people looked just like they were at home in their backyards watching a game. Wonderful environment. I didn't happen to keep my receipt but I gave a brief look at my check, and I think our server was Sheyan? I'm sure I'm not spelling that right but she was a blur tending to everyone in her care and always with a smile! She checked on us several times. I was really impressed with how the servers were bouncing back & forth and still having a great rapport with guests and pets alike! Even if you find yourself with no plans one day or evening, I bet you can go to KO's all on your own, and still have an amazing time. It'd be like hanging out at your neighbors backyard party!

    Overall a good spot to watch a game. They’re not great at the hostess stand, always seemingly needing a mini meeting to seat each table and they don’t welcome anyone in. Lack of game plan there but once you’re seated it’s a good time

    Very good atmosphere, not dark and gloomy. Food was generous portion and tasty. The chicken stir fry didn’t have enough chicken but tasted good and the martinis were watery. Too much shaking in the ice. Chicken wings are delicious, steak wrap tasted great and I had it on a gluten free bun. A fun casual place to have dinner.

    Have eaten here before and enjoyed it. We specifically scheduled a time to be there for football games and our home teams. We politely asked for a TV or two to have the games on. If not possible to put them on, it would have been no problem; but there was simply no correspondence back from anyone (after asking 3 separate people) and after hearing that it wasn't a problem. Just thought it was odd.
