    Outside of the restaurant
    Katie A.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    Honey BBQ Baby Back Ribs w/ Asparagus

    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. And the food was great! Check it out. Honey BBQ Baby Back Ribs - Slow cooked, literally fell off the bone, great sauce, incudes Creamed Corn & a Dinner Roll (both delish), and your choice of sides, I got the Asparagus. Fire for real! If you're in the area and looking for some BBQ, give em a go. Not disappointments. Salud!

    Steak

    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.

    Outside seating area

    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!

    Firepit and stage
    Bridget S.

    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.

    Inside
    Sue B.

    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.

    The drink list!
    Susan S.

    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.

    Is there pool tables?

    yes, they have a few buildings on their site next to restaurant. One of the buildings has pool tables.

    Is all seating outside or are there inside options?

    There is some seating inside at dining tables and a limited few seats at the bar. Most of the seating is outside, however.

    Is it too hot to sit outside during the summer nights? Or do the misters do the trick?

    Personal preference. Call the restaurant with the mister questions.

    What hours do they serve dinner? Lunch yesterday was great, but really wanna try their steak dinner

    The dinner menu starts at 4pm. Any steak you try will be amazing. My personal favorite is the filet in the hot butter sauce but others in my family rave about the flat iron and also the sirloin. Wherever they purchase their meat from is simply… Read more

It tries to be those things and fails in all. The layout: It's a long narrow room. The stage is on the smaller far end. The tables are arranged going back along the long direction. If you're sitting more than halfway back you'll be disappointed in the seating. In the back are high-top tables which are very small. The "bar" is along the long wall. The "restaurant" is catered food ( I don't think the venue has a kitchen). It's arranged buffet style on portable tables in the lobby. You go in a line and chose your dinner and they hand it to you in a plastic to-go container. You eat at your table and then bus your leftovers and trash to the trash can. There is no wait service. Just like eating at a fast food restaurant. If your sitting at a small high-top table there's not enough room for more than two people to eat. You'll be seated with strangers and they'll be right in your face as you eat. The "bar" only has beer and wine for alcohol. Or you could get a canned mixed drink. Stand in line and wait your turn at the end of the bar. The bar seats are reserved for the show. Remember no wait service. So if you want a drink during the show you have to go to the bar. Music was not Jazz. Very slow, boring folk. The crowd was 70+ year olds. And they charge for this experience? Won't be going back.

After I paid $25 for my nonrefundable tickets , I saw they were only $10 on Goldstar. Concert hall had no carpet or other sound absorption.

Foyer and 2 stalls down the hall to the left of the stage. Of course there was a line of women, and no line for the men. Parking was free and not a problem, all around the building. Both Eagles Tribute and Beatles Tribute performances were worth my $25 each, but would have been more satisfying for $15 (includes $5 in the usual ticket fees) through Goldstar.

I can only speak to it as a bar & music venue, not sure if they have food items. It's a great, small intimate space to see an artist you know well or discover something new. Last time we were there was to see one of our favorites, Black Pistol Fire, this past spring. We love that band and have seen them perform many times, we were happy they played at crescent. They have such great energy during shows and the lead singer always gets into the crowd, last time he went over to the back bar and played guitar on it. Was pretty awesome! This recent time we went to see rapper Intuition from LA. He was opening for Wax & Dj Hoppa. They were new to me, but it was a great hip hop show. Generally the sound is good in the venue and they have a bar up front with some seating. Behind the curtain where the stage is, there's a bar back too. There are also bleachers but I usually don't sit on them, but they are there if needed. Cocktails are like regular bar prices, and good thing, they are quality drinks. I had the whiskey sour and old fashioned. Both were very good with quality spirits. At $16, they should be good and not some afterthought cocktail. They also have beers on tap for like $8. I'll definitely be back for another show at some point. Until then, cheers!

We made a reservation through Open Table. There is no additional cost to reserve a table, which is great since most other similar spots either had a cover fee or you had to buy tickets for the live performance. Upon arrival, our table was ready right when we showed up. The service was excellent throughout the night considering how busy it was in there. Our waitress was so patient, especially considering how long we took to make a decision on what we were going to order. The lighting was very nice, the music was great. We spent about 3 hours here enjoying the atmosphere. The food was very good, and prices were low! The drinks (which we did not partake in) were pricey, but seemed to have a great selection. There was a full bar & a handful of "signature" drinks to choose from. We ended up keeping it simple & getting the Wagyu Burger & Fries. I upgraded to onion rings. It took a little while to get our food, but we were in no rush. The burgers were cooked exactly how we wanted them, and tasted fresh. The onion rings and fries were delicious. The lounge also has another restaurant called "Vybe" attached, with similar food offerings, and a DJ instead of a live band. It's a bit quieter in that area. They also have karaoke suites for rent, which is a really cool option for people who are having a party. A waitress was kind enough to give us a tour of all these areas within the restaurant, and give us all the details about what packages are offered. All in all, we had such a nice night out and will definitely be back in the future.
