    Crème brûlée
    Susan R.

    Great service from Cecily tonight at the Stockyards steakhouse. I'm gonna keep this one short cause I'm tired and I still have a ways to travel tonight. I ordered a filet mignon with the mashed potatoes, side salad, glass of wine and a crème brûlée. Food and service are solid, Cecily was very attentive, and the prices are some of the best for the local steakhouses. I'll be back!

    The history is unbelievable and the steaks are excellent. The bartenders were attentive and offered good advice. The history really comes through inside.

    Great food and nice huge bar area with one tv for sports watching. decent service.. Awesome ambiance..nice pictures in the restaurant and nice fancy dining area. Chili was a little spicy for my basic self . The steak was favorable..I feel you could get the same favorable steak at other places for less money. Prices is what gives it only 4 out of 5 stars..just my opinion. definitely try it and see what you think.. kind of forgettable to be honest. Prob recommend this place for large groups..it's quite nice

    Stockyards Steak Soup
    Sarah T.

    Tom, our servicer, was great. Very personable but not pushy. He checked our drinks and water often. The salad wedge was good. The steak soup was full of steak. Yum. The calf fries were kinda bloody inside. We shared an 18 oz Delmonico. It was grizzly but wonderful meat flavor I expected a 2" steak and it was not even 1.5". Delmonico are typically 2". Overall our meal was good. The bar is amazing. Love all the history.

    Overall we had a wonderful time at the Stockyards and enjoyed our meal! We came to celebrate my birthday. We enjoyed the lowkey atmosphere for a Sunday evening. The elk that my niece got was honestly the best bite most of us tried but all our steaks were cooked to preferred temp and very flavorful. The drinks were well made and the corn bread was tasty. Soups and salad were also good, but the Caesar salad was truly wonderful! Dessert was good but the main standout was the bread pudding. Omg so tasty and I don't even like bread pudding but this was just amazing!!! Only reason for 4 starts was service was slightly on the slower side and seemed questionable at first but as the evening went on it got better. Definitely plan on coming back with friends!

    Absolutely delicious! The filet mignon was cooked perfect and well seasoned. The parmesan potatoes were sliced really thin and so good! Service was excellent & friendly. I would definitely go back.

    This place absolutely knocked it out of the park. We don't usually splurge on fine dining, but for my other half's birthday we decided to make an exception, and wow... we are beyond glad we did. From the moment we walked in, everything was phenomenal. The service was stellar, attentive without being overbearing, and made the whole evening feel special. The atmosphere was the perfect balance of upscale and welcoming, with an incredible vibe that still made our kids feel comfortable and included. Now the food... unreal. Every single thing we ordered was perfection. The steak was hands down the best I've ever had in my life, cooked flawlessly and portioned generously enough that we even had leftovers. The elk medallions were absolutely superb, tender, flavorful, and unforgettable. And the sides? Just as impressive. Every bite was beyond amazing and clearly crafted with care. Even my extremely picky 11-year-old, who rarely likes much of anything when we go out, loved his meal, which honestly says a lot all by itself. This dinner was everything we hoped for and more. Incredible food, amazing service, generous portions, and an experience that felt both special and comfortable. We will absolutely be back and will be telling everyone we know how much we loved it. Thank you for making this birthday celebration so perfect!

    This is the 14 oz ribeye - house specialty.  It is served with a compound butter and a bearnaise sauce with Parmesan potatoes and asparagus.

    Beautiful steaks served perfectly cooked. I had the 14 oz local ribeye cooked to a perfect medium-rare with compound butter and bearnaise sauce; Parmesan potatoes and asparagus. It is a 5 star place but steaks are a 60-75$/plate investment.

    Chateaubriand for Two
    Clem M.

    Back for Round Two! Two weeks in Phoenix and I couldn't resist returning. This time we got the Chateaubriand for two. The salad was delicious. Ordered the Old Fashioned & Still Superb. The Beef Tenderloin was cooked to medium, but was a little rare in the middle. Still melt in your mouth superb steak. I tried it with each sauce and the creamed horseradish was the best. This didn't need any sauce and was perfect. The Parmesan potatoes were good. The Sautéed Button Mushrooms were perfect. The Brussel sprouts were good. Service was good. Looking for a Steak House and the Stockyards Restaurant sounded perfect. Ordered the Old Fashioned with Stockyards Bourbon by Outlaw Whiskey. Perfect Compliment with the steak. The Cornbread was good and the bread just ok. Went with the Baseball Sirloin with salad & garlic whipped potatoes. The steak was lean and cooked medium perfectly. The whipped potatoes were fluffy and paired perfectly with the sirloin. Lean & tender was excellent. The salad was fresh and delicious. The Crem Brûlée was absolutely phenomenal end to the meal. The service was superb. Loved the old style steak house. Would definitely recommend and return.

    Wedge Salad (split in half)
    Lindsey K.

    ABSOLUTELY a yes from me! The service was incredible and the food was AMAZING! For a starter we ordered a wedge salad and split it in half. We did have to ask for a couple of the toppings because it was missing some things when it came out but no prob! We ordered the filet with Parmesan potatoes. The steak was perfectly cooked and the potatoes might be the best I've ever had! We also ordered the bread pudding for dessert and it was great!

    It has been quiet some time since I've been to Stockyards. Glad we decided to go for date night. I love the feel of going to an old time saloon and see all the old menus and pictures of Arizona from years ago. From start to finish we enjoyed everything. The hostesses were friendly and greeted us with a smile, our server was pleasant and checked on us often, and the food was amazing. If you're looking for a date night restaurant you should definitely try Stockyards.

    Steak with mashed potato and asparagus
    Sterling A.

    This was an amazing steak house and so much fun to go to with my family. Service was really good and professional as well as informative. The food was delicious and worth the price as everything was seasoned and made fresh. The ambiance is also really good when you have beautiful stain glass windows, great photos around, beautiful designs everything. It can get busy but that's expected when it comes to places like this. For sure go here and order whatever interests you most because it's all worth what you pay for. Try the creme brulee and strawberry shortcake for desert.

    Is it okay for a family with a toddler?

    They do have a kids' menu: https://stockyardssteakhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/Kids-Menu-Web.pdf

    Is there a dress code?

    No, I saw people in shorts and tennis shoes.

    What available for gluten free/celiac peeps?

    Plenty of stuff, meats, salad, veggies, just avoid the sauces and breads

    Do yall still have free happy hour sliders? Or any happy hour food specials?

    Great Saloon Menu with Burger, Sliders, Wings, Queso Fundido, etc.

    What is their corkage fee if we bring a special bottle from our wine collection?

    Hello Mark, Unfortunately it is against the Arizona liquor law for any licensed establishment to allow outside alcohol, even wine. You can view our wine list on our website… 

    Is there anything on the menu for us gluten free folk?

    What is the Arizona Cut Steak?

    I have been here a few times. If memory serves me it is a strip steak. I could be wrong though.

    Is is expensive?

    Food will average be $30-$40 per person plus your bar bill. Great place for dinner. One of my favorite steakhouses to go to when I am in Phoenix.

The service is impeccable, as you would expect from a high-end steakhouse, but it's the attention to detail that truly sets this place apart. Every entrée is cooked to perfection, and the flavors of the food and sides are on a whole different level. Simply put, every bite is a celebration!

I originally came cuz I saw this lobster tagliatelle dish but I actually wasn't too hungry and was going to the Drunk Pirates show after so I didn't want to be weighed down. The catch of the day was a sea bass which sounded great and over a succotash with a pork gastrique with corn nut crunch. And OMG when I say this was prob the best succotash I've ever had. Super crunchy fresh corn, asparagus, snap peas and bell peppers. The sea bass was also cooked great, very crispy skin and glaze. I'm literally thinking about it now. I also ended up getting the Lost in the Woods dessert which was a delicate chocolate mousse on shortbread with like a candied hazelnut and cookie dust. Every bite was heavenly. I wish I could've tried the other desserts too. I would literally come back to Phoenix just to eat here again.

From the great wood grain basement dark ambience to to the raw, regular bar, and multiple sit-down options, we have tried it all. The allure of trying to find a place down in a basement where you have to find the right elevator was pretty bad ass. The hosts along with the waitresses and bar tenders are always welcoming and knowledgeable about their food and drink. I also think it is cool that you can get lockers to store your expensive liquor for return trips. We often come here for drinks and oysters, because my wife loves oysters and they have a wide range of options that aren't exactly cheap, but don't break the bank for freshness and taste. I only really mark down the rating because the menu has been stale over the years and they used to offer elk that is no longer available. Now call that pretentions or snooty, but I think they could use some unique options to keep the experience moving each time you come in. Also, I feel a restaurant of this caliber should be evolving to match their cool vibe and unique experience. I usually get the Wren house beer but feel the beer optiosn are limiting I also feel like some of their cocktails are overpriced, but they are unique compared to other places, so maybe I am just cheap. So really this rating should be more a 4.5. What really brings you back is the cool art on the wall with a Theodore Roosevelt slant and cool sitting areas like a sofa setting in what looks like it would be his old school library. Don't get me wrong everything I have eaten here has been good, but nothing hearkens back like that elk. This place makes for an amazing tinder date if you are willing to drop that cash and make that impression, come here then hop on over to Valley bar and she will think you are magician of illusive locations if she hasn't already been there.

The entrees are delicious although the lamb chops and the short rib bolognese were a bit salty. The bolognese is definitely different than the typical. The branzino and filet mignon were tasty. Sides including the whipped potatoes and Mac and cheese were also good. We also enjoyed the coconut cream pie with a birthday candle for dessert, but I will say for the price we paid for the entire meal, the dessert should have been comped for the birthday. They also charge an extra service fee that can be removed if requested. No reason to charge additional fees on top of everything you pay already.

When we first entered the restaurant we were warmly welcomes by several members of the staff. We let them know that we had a reservation and we were seated quickly. You definitely need to make a reservation. The restaurant is quaint. It has bar seating for eight and about seven tables. We definitely love the warm and cozy vibe. Another huge contributing factor of the intimate setting was the fire grill that you can see from pretty much anywhere in the restaurant. To drink, I had the Cantarito. It was a mixture of. Milagro reposado, charred citrus juice, lime, and ginger which was garnished with dried slices of citrus. It was spectacular! My husband chose a bottle of Mexican Coke. We started with the Embered Elote and the cucumber salad. The Elote was fire roasted corn on the cob with a delicious crema, and spicy sauce garnished with queso. The cucumber salad was super unique, and the combination of flavors were absolutely delightful. it was made up of cucumbers, radishes, tomatoes, tomatillo vinaigrette, and queso. For dinner, we shared the Shorties. Bone in short ribs season to perfection and the squeeze of lime on top pushed the flavor over the edge. Everything we had at this restaurant was fantastic.

The menu isn't big but we had a hard time choosing since everything looked good. We decided on the elote with bone marrow, hamachi crudo and Pollo asado. I have to say the elote/bone marrow combo is life changing. My husband isn't a fan of elote but he could not stop raving about this dish. It was rich without feeling heavy. The hamachi crudo was SPICY but in the most addicting way. We didn't think it could get better,but the pollo asado was amazing. I prefer dark meat, but had a piece of the breast and it was so juicy. The rajas and frijoles were flavorful. But the best thing on the plate were the quesadillas. I wish they offered it separately. We would've ordered another plate they were that good! The portions were so big, that we ended up taking the rest of the asado to go. We ended up bringing it all the way back to NYC 3 days later and it tasted even better! I loved the whole vibe of the place. Yes, it's tiny but it made you feel like you were eating at a friend's house. The staff were friendly and patient (especially since we were so indecisive). We tried 2 cocktails which were tasty. We wanted to try more but were soooo full. We did try the sweet potato dessert which was nice but I really was too full to enjoy. I'm already planning a trip back to Phoenix so I can eat here again!

    What an amazing evening, beautifully curated with so many thoughtful details. Only downside is that…read morefor some reason Apple maps was not accurate to finding the location and parking was a challenge as it is right on Roosevelt Row. However as soon as I found it and immediately after entering Pretty Penny I was transformed to the cutest little restaurant. I was greeted immediately and had made a reservation so even though my friend hadn't arrived yet, they sat me down. They instantly offered water and menus (food and cocktail). I noticed that the menu seemed very small and the dishes were shareable -- I don't eat meat so I was hoping my friend wouldn't mind sticking with fish and seafood (which she didn't). As soon as I got to my table there was the cutest sign that said welcome to Sarah Sherman and guest -- it was such an adorable and personal touch, I loved that! As soon as my friend got there we immediately both ordered the cold brew old fashioned -- we thought about the espresso martini but this just sounded too good to pass up -- and we were not disappointed! This drink was so tasty and strong. We immediately ordered the bread (sourdough boule) to soak up some of the alcohol as well as some oysters and the salsa. The oysters were so well spiced and were absolutely delicious. But the bread, the bread, the bread -- the server mentioned that it took almost 9 months to develop the bread recipe and it served. It was the best bread and butter that I think I have ever had! The salsa was good but probably was my least favorite of everything and it was still super yummy. We then moved on to the octopus tostadas. Sometimes octopus is not my fav -- it can be too chewy but this was so amazing and incredibly flavorful. It was starting to be my favorite dish until we ordered the Hamachi -- OMG!! Talk about a mouth orgasm-- both my friend and I were yummming it up -- but seriously this bite was so complex with different flavors coming up with every chew -- it has coriander candied peanuts, fermented pineapple, avocado, pickled fresno, toasted coconut and aji amarillo yogurt -- The server mentioned that this was the chef's least favorite dish which I totally do not understand because this was off the charts in my book. We also tried the earl gray whiskey sour, which was light and delicious, and ended with the shrimp toast and the espresso martini. By the way the toast on the shrimp toast was like a little fried dough triangle -- sooooo gooood! The martini was good but the cold brew old fashioned really stole the spotlight for me. Other details I loved that just elevated the experience: Purse hook (very important to me), the little trays for your utensils, metal coasters, incredibly attentive servers, fantastic music, great ambiance and the cutest was the penny they put on top of your check. So cute -- was not expecting such an enjoyable all around experience!! Will be back 1000%!!!
