Wow. Walking in for the first time, and as out of towners, we thought, uh oh... tourist trap! But San Tan Flat did everything so well, it's 5 stars for us and a must. From the excellent service from our server Jean, to the great food - fried pickles, 2 types of chicken wings, pulled pork sandwich, and even fish and chips. Each was tasty and super well cooked and hot when they came out. Looking around the restaurant, diners are happy and the staff is well orchestrated. We arrived around 4pm on Saturday and it was busy. By 5pm there was a wait. Outside, the music and bar venue looks great. Next visit we will come back for live music!! read more

Live music and BBQ what more could you want? Make sure to get there early if you want a table, weekends can get pretty busy! The rib shack is great if you don't want to wait in line forever and the food is great just limited. But if you do wait in line you won't be disappointed either. Such a great local gem! read more

Great ambiance and service.. but you must go in the evening. I had a blast.. beer was cold and food was hot. Tried it again on a Saturday afternoon and it seemed like a whole different restaurant. No server, had to order at the bar and take your food to your table yourself. I'd suggest getting a seat at the bar and having a good time read more

San Tan Flat - Front door - American Near Me - Queen Creek, Arizona

Visited San Tan Flat while in Queen Creek. The atmosphere was lively, laid-back, and very Western, with most of the seating outdoors around picnic tables -- which is really what makes this place so much fun. Had a great afternoon with friends this time around. The service was friendly and efficient, the beers were nice and cold, and the burgers were scrumptious, especially paired with their steak fries, which I really enjoy. Like my previous visit, the only challenge here is the food line, which can get very long. We got lucky and arrived just before the queue exploded. Overall, still a fantastic spot to gather with friends, enjoy the outdoor vibe, and soak up a beautiful Arizona afternoon -- just try to time your visit before the big rush. Saluti. read more

Had dinner here on Saturday night and it was sooo busy. We walked in around 6:30pm, wrote my name down with the hostess, and we were quoted 1 - 1.5 hours to be seated. We were given a buzzer and we sat outside to wait. They had live music playing, the fire pits going, and the people watching was interesting. We stopped at the bar and bought a bloody mary to sip while we waited. It was then 8pm and our buzzer had not buzzed. We went inside to check and one of the hostesses was rude. She gav us attitude when we asked and she said we had already been buzzed, which we had not.... We were then told to wait a few more minutes and we would be seated. We were finally seated and our server came over a few moments after. We ordered: One order of fried pickles One bacon cheeseburger One steak with mushrooms, mashed potatoes, creamed corn, and a dinner roll The food was good but temperature wise it should've been served hotter. The mashed potatoes were lukewarm and so was the corn. My steak was also not hot. The dinner roll was the only hot item, and it was my favorite. The bacon burger was cooked and seasoned well. The fried pickles were also great as they had a nice fresh crunch to them. Service from our waitress was great as she was friendly and attentive. 3 stars because the host was rude and also because our food was not hot. Total $90 The place itself though was fun and unique! read more

Visited on a Saturday night and it was really busy. There were two girls working the host stand and only one of them was friendly. We were quoted 1.5 hours and we sat outside to wait. When the 2 hour mark hit we decided to go inside and ask. The hostess then snapped at us and said that our buzzer had rung 1.5 hours ago when that was not true.... After the mix up, we were seated. Our server was nice and attentive. I ordered a burger and it was delicious. Service was great from her. The outside was fun as they had live music and the fire pits going on. Overall pretty cool and unique place. read more

After standing in line for 90 minutes, paying $70 for chicken tenders and a steak, our food came out 45 minutes later and was freezing cold. That was such a damper on our experience, but now we know not to come to San Tan Flat at 5:30 pm on a Saturday. The vibe, is awesome! We loved the outdoor seating, fire pits, live music, string lights, and lively vibe! We'd come back on a day/time that isn't as busy! read more

We had an awesome time here today. We stopped by for lunch. The menu is limited at lunch but still not bad. I had the Mesquite Chicken Salad and a Chili Soup. I liked the soup a lot. It was spicy but not over powering. The salad was large with lots of chicken. We were the first ones here but we were allowed to enter a little early. We were given menus and told to order at the bar. When the food was done the server brought into us. She was friendly and came by several times afterwards to ensure we were OK. I loved the layout with a western theme. This restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating. There is even a bar outside as well as a dance floor. Thank you San Tan Flats for the good time. read more

Food was great Environment was a rustic country vibe. Only thing to judge would be for such a nice and pricey restaurant we had to order our own food at the bar and pick it up as well. One employee taking care of bar and restaurant patrons read more

All depends on what you are looking for, that hole in the wall and you nailed it. I have been able to patron this place since it opened, moved and still went back. Nothing changed but I guess you can dance at the place now. read more

I was really excited to try this restaurant as it is commonly talked about amongst locals. Came here with my husband and friends and waited a while for a table. Waiting wasn't the biggest concern. It seemed like there was no AC on within the restaurant or any of the added rooms. The food was all right, but nothing over the top spectacular. We tried the burger and steak and I would come back to eat it again. What I was most excited about was the fact that they had Pool tables. The Pool tables were off in a separate area that also had no AC. We stopped to ask someone that worked there to see if they can turn it down as it was set to 85° and they said they weren't able to do that. We ended up playing one game and then leaving. Personally, if they would've had an AC running, we would've stayed longer, but it seems like they're not interested in making their customers comfortable. read more

The atmosphere is so great- outdoor seating on picnic tables and dirt ground/floor. There is indoor seating, but there was a long wait so we opted to order from the Rib Shack. This had a limited menu but had a nice variety. There was lots to see and do. Pool tables, someone doing Characters (for a fee), and live music with a dance floor. Food was good. We had ribs, which were tender, fall off the bone. Coleslaw was ok. Beans were really good and it had chunks of meat in it as well. We also got the s'more's kit to make our own s'mores! read more

Loved the vibe. The atmosphere was so fun. There was live music Thursday night and that was the cherry on top. Was happy that there were plenty of misters, as someone who came from out of town-this was crucial. It was a very fun place to be. We ate outside and there was plenty of seating. The only fallback was the wait. There was an insanely long line, that took about 45 minutes to get through to order and then our food took another 45 minutes to get. We got a special menu item, the fried macaroni bites and they were delicious. They had green hatch chilis in them, which was a great touch. I got the bacon cheeseburger and I gotta say, even though it was a really long wait, it was a great burger. read more

Food was okay. The baked potato was still raw and cold. Burger was yummy. Service was okay. Did not refill drinks or ask how everything was when it came out. We had to stop her gout by to get the potato fixed. The restaurant was cool inside and had an outdoor area. Live music both places. read more

What's up humans! Stopped by this spot while I was out in the area. Definitely worth checking out! The outside area ambiance was dope, can even start your own fire. Good music. Service was good.

This place was so amazing!! Ordered food right away and it was ready pretty quickly. We had the steaks, cooked medium, and they were perfect! Nice seasoning and still juicy/tender. The baked potato was yummy and the corn on the side was also delicious. We came late in the evening, basically missing dinner rush and had a lovely time. The live musician was SO talented and we definitely enjoyed the songs he performed. read more

Stopped at San Tan Flat to hear some live music, we weren't sure what to expect, WOW! This place was hopping! Lots of outside seating with fire pits, several bars that you can walk up to and order drinks or food...there was also a large restaurant area inside if you didn't want to eat outside , there was a wait to be seated though. The place has lots of things to look at/do, pool tables, smore kits for the kids (you have your own fire pits!) Everyone was super friendly, the band was great, we will have to come back and try them for dinner! read more

Did love this place at the beginning, but the service is getting pretty bad. The portions of the food are a lot smaller not worth the money atmosphere is OK inside and outside is nice just too crowded. If you go on the weekends, can't find anywhere to sit. read more

The ambiance is always great, especially when it's cool enough to use the firepits! Even in the hot summer days, it's comfortable, as they have misters. The food is good, but not great, for a steak house. If you go on a weekend, be prepared to wait in line for food! The place is always busy, but the bar does a really good job of getting people served pretty quickly. The workers are always pleasant, not rude! Most of them even have smiles on their faces. It's fun to have live music as well. read more

Our server was very nice as well!! read more

We came here on a Wednesday night with friends. We arrived around 4:30 PM and we were seated inside as it was still a little warm outside. However, they do have lots of misters so it's not too bad outside. When you sit inside, you have table service, which was nice. Our server was very nice and efficient. Our food came out within 10 minutes and was nice and hot! My husband ordered the full rack of ribs along with the steak fries. It also comes with cream corn and a roll. I ordered the flat iron steak with asparagus. It also came with cream corn and a roll. Both of our meals were quite delicious. I could only eat the top half of the asparagus because the lower half was a little woody. But there still was plenty of vegetables. We couldn't finish our meals so we took a little home for a lunch snack for the next day. Our friend's rib eye looked pretty good; we'll have to try that next time. They brought our friend out a piece of cheesecake to celebrate his birthday. It was a very nice birthday dessert. The outdoor singer was starting up as we were leaving. I think it would be fun to come back when the live music is playing. We will definitely be back. read more

San Tan Flat - me very happy after i ate there food leftovers - American Near Me - Queen Creek, Arizona

One of my favorite things about this place is the flexibility. You can sit inside and enjoy full table service, or order at a service window and relax outside with a more casual vibe. The atmosphere, food, and service are all consistently great. The $29 New York steak is honestly one of the best deals in town. The steak fries and sweet corn mash absolutely nail it and make the meal feel far more expensive than it is. What really stands out to me is the value. Two people can have a great dinner with drinks and still get out for under $100, which is becoming pretty rare these days. Great food, great experience, and a price point that keeps you coming back. read more

The Bell Margarita was the best margarita I have ever had! I was surprised by the brown sugar as its ingredients. The price was reasonable! The service was excellent...friendly and fast! I loved all the signs around the buildings...so funny and so true! The ambiance was fun, relaxing, and I will definitely come back if I travel to the region again. read more

Food is excellent and you get a good amount and the service is also excellent. My family and I have at many meals there afternoon and evenings. Only ever had a excellent meals cooked the way you ask. Friday & Saturday night they have a live music and it is always full. It is hard to find a good steak but they are again excellent and there burgers are huge. Give it a try. Doug read more

Bartenders are rude, besides that cute western place for the family. Pool table room bar can close early even on Fridays, if you're sitting at the bar bartenders will put down fence right in front of you and lock up if not busy. read more

San Tan Flats is one our favorite places to go, however, I do have to say that the Duke burger I had the night of 5/4/26 was disappointing due to it being over cooked. What was more disappointing was that when our server asked how everything was, I let here know and the only option was to wait to have another burger made...I don't like to get my food after my dining partner is done eating so I declined but no other compensation was even offered. read more

Came here again, service was bad and the food this time wasn't good at all. Last time the food wasn't that bad, I've been seeing how bad it is and will say that, this is correct! read more

We have been here a few times and the food had been very good. Atmosphere is interesting but the noise level is very high, to the point you can't have a conversation. Service from wait staff isn't good, spend time looking for your waiter/waitress for drink refill, bill, etc.... They seem to disappear. Lighting is very dim, too dim in my opinion and outside in the evening = no lights. Today we decided to go for dinner and we requested a table specifically saying no booths only a table and it is for 3 people. After waiting only 5-10 minutes she took us to a booth - asked again for a table and she said it would be probably a good 20 minutes. I spotted a booth that also had a chair and asked about having that table and she said they were trying to hold that for someone else - Really?? We decided to leave and probably won't return honestly. Seems like a busy place but not much value put on their customers. Parking lot is usually pretty full, there are a few handicap parking spots. Walking inside there is a small area to sit and wait as well as a few benches outside where you can sit. Pretty crowded inside. What could improve? Better customer service for sure, value every customer. Train staff to be more attentive to customers. A little more lighting inside so we can see our food and each other. Not sure what you can do about the noise level except lower the music a little. Definitely need some lighting in the parking lot. More handicap parking spaces along the front on both sides of the entrance . read more

Always like coming here. The food is usually good, reasonable prices, good alcohol selection, and I just love the posted quotations of Americas founders. Had lunch with a group of friends. Ordered the Ruben with fries and shiner bock on tap. Beer was perfect. The sandwich was almost too much to eat. The fries were ok. Enjoyed sitting outdoors at one of the picnic tables. They seemed short staffed and some of our group got their orders messed up. Otherwise 4 stars read more

7.7 out of 10. Night life outside during the fall and winter is the best. Food is okay. The ribs are and 8 due to being meaty. Not much smoke flavor. Good place for whole family if they have live music. read more

First, just an amazing atmosphere!! I love the open dining/bar/stage area with the multiple open fire pits. Even on a 90° evening it was still pleasant and conversation could take place while the band played in the background (Friday & Saturday nights only). The food options were fantastic and it gave you a little of that chuck wagon vibe. The only reason I'm not giving them 5 stars is that at a place like this I'm expecting a thick ribeye (1.5" to 2" thick) and a full plate of St. Louis style ribs. The baby backs are just too pricey for the small amount of meat. Thin cut ribeyes might cook faster but you lose the juiciness and flavor of a thick cut ribeye. Also, you should be able to order a spicy bbq sauce as an option instead of just the sweet. Don't get me wrong, the food was delicious and I enjoyed every bite, just some thoughts on taking it to the next level. read more
