I've always had a good experience here at this Eegees! I love the cheesy bacon fries (with a side of ranch, of course) and who doesn't love a good frozen Eegee on a hot day?

My favorite part about AZ its always a must stop so sad that watermelon is only a summer menu (favorite of the month) it should be on the menu all the time

The subs were ok, but the eegees were amazing. We had a watermelon and a piña colada one, and both were delicious. Bathrooms are well kept, but you have to ask a team member to open them for you. Team members could be more friendly.
