I had a great time here. The food was great, the atmosphere is great. Very comfortable and a cool environment. Our waitress was friendly and knowledgeable. The food was really good and the drinks were too. We went around 5:30 on a Wednesday and were seated right away. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for good food in a nice atmosphere.
Just finished a “pre Diamondbacks game” lunch. Loved everything we had and Cassidy was our server and was friendly and attentive. Brussel sprouts was a nicely shareable appetizer and plenty for the 3 of us. The honey glaze coat added unique sweetness to it. My jumbalaya was a generous portion and tasted like they used really fresh ingredients. The pulled pork was super tasty too! My wife liked the French dip. We will definitely be back!
Food, atmosphere and service was great! Meatloaf melted in your mouth and the salad was the absolute best! It was so good we ended up coming back a 2nd night! There was only seating at the food bar area where they are all making the food and they gave us some free brussel sprouts. They were delicious and the staff is so nice and friendly. Definitely will be back when in town.
First time here. Lovely atmosphere. Great service and great food. Our waitress was so nice and always on top of things. Desserts were fire! Will definitely be coming back again.
First time having dined here. I ordered the Prime Rib, med rare, with the smashed potatoes. By far the best Prime Rib I've eaten. • Service by Jay, was exceptional...we hadn't told him it was birthday, however he picked up on our conversation and took a drink off our bill or offered a desert at no charge. Very kind. • Loved the atmosphere here. • Plenty of parking across from the restaurant above the corner Fry's Grocery. • Great food The meatball appetizers were off the grid good. • Will definitely return. • Thank you
Nachos 9/10 - it’s been a minute since I’ve had a batch of restaurant nachos worthy of my review, however the pork was smoked and cooked perfectly and the chips we’re almost a buttery tortilla chip concoction that was extremely enjoyable to eat! Clam chowder 6/10 - a bit too fishy nothing special to discuss here... Club Sandwich 9/10 probably one of the best clubs I’ve ever had!! Meatloaf 7/10 it was a good meatloaf but we wouldn’t order it again and last but not least brownie fudge sunday 6/10 we were sad that this was a bit of a let down, brownie was dry and the gelato wasn’t very flavorful.
Woah, this place was worth the hype! We made reservations ahead of time and sat down immediately. The atmosphere and service were great. The food was incredible but certainly a lil premium for what it is. We will certainly be back!
A friend of my cousin's wife recommended to this place, so this was my first time eating here with my family at the Arrogant Butcher l. Because this was a downtown Phoenix and a Friday night evening, we made sure to have reservations. I definitely recommend this if you don't want to wait. I noticed on our way in that they have outdoor heated seating as well as a main dining area and some private dining spaces. I love the vibe and decor in this place. Our waiter was Jay and I Ioved his white glasses. He was very professional and attentive. He was very good about answering our questions regarding what were popular orders and his favorites. He did emphasize that most people ordered entrees from the butcher box selections framed in red. The food is American style. I ordered the Atlantic salmon which had butternut squash fregola, crispy Brussels sprouts Brussels, and cranberry pesto and a side order of the Japanese sweet potatoes which I really enjoyed. My cousin ordered the white shrimp rigatoni which has melted tomato butter, spinach, lemon, caper, parmesan bread crumbs. And his wife ordered a crispy chicken breast topped with jumbo lump crab, green bean, lemon caper butter, Calabrian chile and asked for a side of macaroni and cheese. I loved the Brussels sprouts and the Japanese sweet potato. The salmon was crispy on the outside and juicy. My cousin liked his but he's not a fan of tomato sauce, and his wife was surprised by the combination of crab and breaded chicken. She really enjoyed hers and the mac and cheese. The bathrooms were nice and clean. They are located near the entrance. Overall, we had a great experience and I hope to visit again when I'm back in Phoenix.
