About this business
While diners at the venerable restaurant represent the city's movers-and-shakers including local politicos, Durant's is also one of the quintessential places in Phoenix to bring a date. The interiors feature classic dining room decor from over-stuffed banquettes to the dark-wood paneling. Durant's is primarily known as a steakhouse and the servers are Valley veterans who have been with the restaurant for many, many years. It is also known as one of the city's best 'beef-and-booze' houses, where dry martinis are never out of ... read more

Our visit was disheartening to say the least! Noting their fabulous ratings on the likes of Zagat, Yelp and Trip Advisor, my wife and I were dismayed with our recent visit to this Phoenix mainstay! Durantâ??s does take you back in time. Coming in through its front/back door, impresses you with the feel of walking into an old Speakeasy! You actually meet the kitchen staff before anyone else â?? fun! The furnishings, booths, table and décor are a throwback to the 50â??s and 60â?? and you feel like the Rat Pack is about to wal... read more
Old School Steak House: Went there with a date and shared the Porterhouse, it couldn't have been any better. And we both couldn't stop eating the bread.
Retro Restaurant – I have been going to Durant's for many years now. This is one retro restaurant that serves good food but a few may find it a little pricey. The service is good and quick.
The Finest Beef in Arizona – This is a traditional steak house who cooks the fillet to perfection. The potatoes are loaded and the broccoli is huge. You can go just for the bread itself. The bread comes in big chunks loaded with butter. The house salad is big and the ranch is homemade. The service is superb and the waiters top notch. The atmosphere is crowded but also laid back. The prices are medium high. Expect about $150 for four people to get three courses and drinks. I didn't have the desert.
OVER-RATED – My husband took me here for dinner he swore it is the best place in town for steak, but all i know is that we are two of a kind especially when it comes to food because i thought it was just ok not the best just OK. Their cescar sald is not good either its a little bland and too peppery not my taste at all. I just had to eat here once and knew i would not be back.
Awesome atsmosphere, tastey steaks – On Valentines Day Feb. 14, 2008, my boyfriend and I wanted a romantic place to dine and great steak. We had to take and early dinner as when we called , they said all times are full. when we arrived we were seated immediatly, however throughout the evening, only about 6 couples in the dining area, as several people never showed up. We had an appitizer of crab cakes, well just one came with order but full of crab, no fillers. The Caesar salad was not as good, as hardly no greens, but insid... read more
Durant's rocks – Durant's is truly not to be missed. Of course, you may wait a ten or twenty minutes for a seat, but if you are a person with a little class and have realistic expectations what comes with a visit to a highly popular restaurant, you'll definitely enjoy yourself. Do not miss this under any circumstances...but if you are a person who thinks that 20-30 dollars is too much for a plate of food, or if you think that for that price you should be treated like a visiting dignitary, then just save yourself the trouble ... read more
WORST SERVICE EVER!!! – I made reservations for my girlfriend and I for a celebration dinner a week in advance. We entered the resturaunt and the host told us it would be about twenty minutes past our reservation time before we were seated. An hour later people who were complaining the most were seated before us. I told the host that we were still waiting and he said he would get our seats but 15 minutes later he was still nowhere to be seen. A man who was seated and went to the bathroom even passed by and commeneted on how ... read more
A Classic Restaurant – I read the reviews before I made reservations...take 10% of the ravers off and 10% of the naysayers off and you've got a good a solid review. We queried some of the locals on it and they said "expensive." So we made reservations and went, New Years Eve, '06 at 5:30 PM. We walked so we didn't get the kitchen welcome but most of the staff was standing, forming a gauntlet as you enetered. Seating was prompt as was the table service. The place was dark with heavy wood and fabric wall treatments. The restau... read more
