    Smoked Prime Rib

    Liberty Station has two very nice patios, but it was a hot evening in Scottsdale, so inside was the option. Pleasant room that leans towards the western motief; in past visits the service has always been pleasant, but relatively slow. Tonight (Saturday) was smoked prime rib night (enjoy 1/2 wine bottles when ordered) and it was delicious. My wife's steak frites was perfect. Entrees with wine just north of $100. Worked for us and we will be back.

    Happy Hour Menu
    Thor M.

    We really enjoyed an early dinner at Liberty Station. We arrived at 3 o'clock as Happy Hour started. It was unintentional on our part, but we're really glad we did as they have great happy hour deals. We had fantastic service as the bartender/server was very friendly, attentive, and professional. We ordered off the Happy Hour menu and had the Brisket quesadilla, Chicken wings, Firecracker shrimp, and the Brisket street tacos. The brisket was fantastic, some of the best that I have ever had. The restaurant was Comfortable with great decor. We felt very welcome and at home there.

    I was never contacted by management to come back and also the table mentioned wasn't us. We didn't order bolognese as shown on the check I included.

    Pulled pork sandwich and sweet potato fries
    Alice L.

    I've been to Liberty Station multiples times - not sure how I haven't done a review yet. My parents were in town, so my husband and I brought them to Liberty Station for their happy hour, which is an amazing deal. I usually order something with their brisket because it is delicious but I switched it up this time around and ordered the pulled pork sandwich combo with sweet potato fries and the porter for 18 dollars. The pulled pork was also delicious - so tender and juicy and the sandwich was a good size - I couldn't finish it all. The sweet potato fries were perfectly crispy. My husband and dad also ordered the pulled pork sandwich and my mom ordered the green chili pork stew which she really enjoyed. While I liked the pulled pork sandwich, I think next time I would try something different or stick with the brisket quesadilla which I love.

    Brisket sliders
    Robert K.

    Pretty good place to hang out for some brisket and a drink. The service and food is always good here. Today I got the happy hour deviled eggs and the happy hour brisket sliders. The eggs were kind of smokey flavor and were not too bad. But the brisket sliders were lacking enough meat. It was just one long sliver of brisket spread across three brioche kind of squares buns that looked like square biscuits. I tried to grab one and it was stuck to the other slider. If they cut the sliders apart that might be best. But was definitely wanting more brisket on them. I might get some brisket to go..

    The food is bland little to no flavor on most dishes. We have been here 6 times over the years and every time we come we're hoping this time will be different. We like the environment we like the service. We dislike the lack of flavor to their food. The tomatoe soup and salad had more flavor then the walleye dish and the brisket grilled cheese. Now that's sad.

    Smoked prime rib dip and chips
    Todd P.

    We come here pretty often. Sometimes for Happy Hour and sometimes for dinner. Happy Hour favorites are their tots, the burger special and brisket quesadillas. When we are here for HH, we keep an eye on the bill. Sometimes the drinks are charged at full price. But I digress. Last night we stopped in for dinner. We ordered one new dish and one favorite. The favorite was the half order of pulled pork with baked beans and a salad and our new one, the smoked prime rib dip with homemade chips. The half order is plenty for two meals given the sides and is both tangy and sweet. The prime rib sandwich was excellent. The horseradish dip could have been a little more spicy but everything else was great. We love their chips too. We had dinner at the bar and the service was great.

    Platter
    Shambavi K.

    The menu was vast - something for everyone. if you aren't into bbq there are plenty of options. The ribs were better than the pork or the brisket but all were great to try in the platter. The green chili pork stew was good and it came with small flour tortillas but it may be better suited as an entree with some rice. Brussels sprouts were salty. Their version of Mac and cheese and tator tots were fine. 4 people shared all the above. Overall it seemed like the flavors fell flat for us or something was missing to make it all better. The service was slow and not that attentive but maybe it's just different expectations in a AZ.

    Cool vibe even better food. The prime rib dip was outstanding! So was the tomato soup!

    Caesar salad, street tacos (mix n match three), brisket half portion with slaw and sweet potato fries.

A must have. - sausage: I cannot speak for this because of my dairy allergen and they weren't quite sure but definitely seems great - pork smoked ends: These were absolutely my favorite. From the sauce to the tenderness and the distinct umami from the wood smoke mixing into the pork and the fat from the cut being so tender it just melts on your tongue. Overall you have to go here and this is one of my favorite restaurants, and TAKE your friends here! The ambiance is great and the music isn't too loud where you cannot hear each other!

Next, we each ordered the 2 meat platter. I had St. Louis ribs with brisket, Mac and cheese, and the bbq beans. My husband ordered the baby back ribs, brisket, bbq beans, and pecan Cole slaw. We were both served a piece of cornbread which was so good. I also had a smoked Old Fashioned. The presentation was very well done!

They had pulled pork. Bites of the smokerd rendered fat therein had the effect of rocket fuel. Pork belly was even porkier than the aforementioned shredded butt. Ribs pretty good too. Mac: ultra cheesy. Pot liquor from the collard greens came in clutch for hydrating the more dry pieces of pork.

Because everything is OK, it's "not bad" if you're hungry and you need to get dinner without spending a ton. The main issue is that the food is not hot by the time you get to eat it, and the second is that it's dried out and overcooked about 50% of the time. I'm not a huge fan of really sweet BBQ sauce and I understand that most of the people that come here probably slather a ton of BBQ sauce on the meat, but meat should taste good on its own first. Too often it is too dry - I had the pulled pork Wed and the Brisket Thurs, I've had just about everything on their menu. The only meat that's consistently tasty is the hot links. Why is it often dry? I don't know. Overcooked? Left out too long? I'm not a BBQ expert so I can't explain. But I can address the reason that it's cold: I've watched them pretty carefully, and while the staff is always very nice, the issue is that when you order the specific meat you want, especially if it's chopped brisket, i.e. if it's not sitting right up front at their assembly counter, they have to shout out to another guy who comes along and gets your chopped brisket meat ready for you. He chops it up, puts it out in the open air, while the first person moves your tray along the assembly line getting other things like coleslaw broccoli beans etc. -- then you get rung up and they offer you a drink, by the time all that happens, you pay, tip, etc, your meat has probably been sitting 3 to 5 minutes and by the time you get your drink filled up and your silverware and you get situated at your seat -- all of your food is cold. The metal trays are apparently not heated, and I'm not sure if that's part of the problem either, but it just reminds me of why, at almost every full service restaurant, as soon as they set the plate down in front of you, the first thing they always tell you is...(go ahead and guess)... "be careful the plate is very hot". That is important. So if they could somehow figure out a way to make the meat consistent and a little bit less dry, and if they could figure out how to deliver the meat to you while it's still hot, (heat the metal tray? cover it after it's assembled? a microwave at every table?) I would give five stars.
