Phoenix City Grille

Started with the green chili appetizer where you roll your own burrito with the hot chili pork. Very tasty and fun. The bacon wrapped shrimp were good also. I got the cedar plank salmon that was fishy as hell . Sides were OK but not great. Friend got the pork loin that tasted a lot better than my Friskies cat food salmon. Service was slow. The restaurant is dated. Clientele is ancient. Won't be back.

After experiencing a very tedious day, my dear friend invited me to have dinner here at the "Grille" and I "Thank God" I accepted. Please let me tell you the 'Shrimp & Grits' didn't get eaten - They got KISSED!!! Why did my friend and I turn our forks to swords when we neared the last bite of the Creme Brulee' Cheesecake (Phoenix Grille almost broke up a good friendship). So I have to return without her! 🙂 🙂 From the bottom of my heart I 'Thank Management for the food, the exceptional waitstaff, and the perfect ambience to let go of the world and simply embrace the 'moment'! -Mz Coleman

Solid choice for well-prepared foods. The chicken breast, caramelized carrots and mashed potatoes is not exactly a revolutionary combo. However, each item is immaculately seasoned and cooked. The carrots were perfectly charred to a crispy chewy caramel on the edges. Mashed were fresh made, creamy and buttery. The chicken skin was a nice medium brown thin crispy all across and didn't fall off when you cut the breast which was super tender but still had a satisfying bite to it. Seasoning was great. The pan sauce was rich and savory. Pork chop with apple slaw was similar - each item prepared with attention to technique, and complimenting the ingredients. Sweet corn soup was well balanced with hot sauce to offset the natural sweetness of corn. Burrata over arugula had a simple but quality olive oil salt and pepper dressing to let the freshness and delicate taste of the Burrata come through. Reasonably priced for this level of quality.

I walked into this place and was immediately impressed. You already know this place is going to have great food. They paid attention to all the details; from the lighting to the temperature to the dark wood. We came in for lunch and I was even impressed by the lunch menu. Service was professional, well mannered, and attentive. But the food..... was fabulous! I had originally ordered the lunch short rib gnocchi, but it was sold out. I can totally understand why such a combination would sell out. I ended up with the shrimp that was in a garlic jalapeno butter sauce atop a coconut rice with veggies. The taste, texture, temperature, and serving size were all perfect! Stop in and experience a local favorite!

Love this restaurant. Came this time For Phoenix Chef Week. Three course meal and outstanding espresso martinis too!!!

I had an amazing dinner at phoenix city grille. The menu was awesome. We did a valentine’s day menu. The food was excellent. Deserts were delicious. They seem to have a special bourbon selection. I will definitely be back.

Our food and drinks were good. There are little things that would make the experience better. It would be nice to have room temp butter for the corn bread because the cold butter doesn’t spread. The red chile pork had great flavor. I enjoyed my Grille’s old fashioned but my husband wasn’t impressed with his margarita. The server was friendly.
