Durants

When you enter into the restaurant, you actually go through the kitchen to the dining room. Everyone greets you. Very clean. As you get seated look around the dining areas. It's like you stepped back in time. Very cool and comfy. Our server was fantastic. He had great suggestions. Do go for the Calamari appetizer. Plenty to share. Try the scallops--delicious! Delmonico Cut steak. Finish the evening with a glass of port and their Strawberry Shortcake. This dessert is fresh! Can't go wrong here!

Exceptional service - your water glass will never run dry! Martinis are wonderful - especially with the blue cheese olives which are slightly astringent and delightful! Spinach salad was good and waffle fries were exceptional. Rib eye steak was ordered medium and came out medium well. Flavor was fantastic though and steak was very tender and the char / crust was excellent. The bread here is a meal in itself, so go slow! I would come back again but order medium rare to get medium.

Durant's blew my expectations of a steak house out of the water. The food was phenomenal from the starter all the way to the desert. The amount of detail from the moment you walk in the door to the table service and the plating of our food was nothing less than artful. The atmosphere is just as beautiful as the food, they went all out decking the halls for Christmas! I've never seen a restaurant decorated with such a classy, aire of elegance for the holidays. If you have any special occasions or just want the best steak of your life Durant's is the place to go.

Red velvet saloon decor pair with all 70-80s goodies：dirty dancing, beach boys etc if you’re seeking the Classic American experience, this is the place. Juicy Prime rib & creamy lime pie were amazing. I’d eat more garlic/leek bread if I wasn't watching out for my weight. server Ricardo was friendly and made all the right notes, thank you for this great dining experience. Highly recommend !!

Durant's is DELICIOUS with excellent service! We went for our anniversary and had a call. Their drinks are phemominal as well. The lighting inside is a bit lower as there is a romantic feeling here. So the food images might be hard to see but it is Key Lime Pie, Strawberry Shortcake, and Scallops & Mash. The steak here as also amazing. Highly recommend

Durant's is our favorite "go to" steakhouse in Phoenix. Their bone in ribeye is the best steak I have ever had and I grew up in Nebraska. The martini is full to the brim and off the charts quality and coupled with the cheesecake for dessert makes a match made in heaven. Prices reflect the quality of food, service and atmosphere here and are well worth it. Walk in the back door and go through the kitchen and you will be greeted by enthusiastic cooks, servers and waiters ready to serve you......a wonderful experience every time we go to Durant's.

You may go to Durants because of its storied history, to imagine sitting beside a member of the Rat Pack or one of Phoenix’s movers and shakers. You could have. You may go because you’ve heard people walk through the kitchen to get in, and you can’t believe it’s true. It is. But the reason Durants has been such an icon in this city’s culinary history for so long is simple - its food. Even with the limited post pandemic menu and inflation related price increases, you MUST experience Durants, and more than once. Of course their steaks are some of the best in the business. But don’t over look the Oyster Rockefeller, which is the best I’ve ever had. You have to search for the oyster in all the cheese and crumble. Yum. Manhattans? Perfecto. Even the warm bread is a treat. For a quiet dinner, ask for a booth in the bar when you make your reservation. It’s very intimate, perfecto again.

I’m from Dallas and I appreciate an old school steakhouse like Durant’s. You can feel the history when you walk in thru the kitchen and into the dining area, which is dim and crimson colored. The waiter was very knowledgeable and charming. The steak was delicious and the sides were great. Perfect date night spot.
