Thirty-five years ago, Sadies was a small snack bar inside a bowling alley. It got so popular that they had to expand. Sadies's new place opened in 1983 in the Northwest Valley. On any given night, you'll see Jaguars parked next to pickups. The food is the reason people flock to this place. The chili is hot, and the margaritas are cold. This isn't a place for the faint of heart. The free salsa that comes out with chips is garlicky and firey. Don't attempt to eat here of you're not used to the heat.
The tamales are handmade and are my favorite item on the menu. Carne adovada is sweet and hot. You can't go wrong, but it is hot chili.
