Phoenix City Grille

The food at Phoenix City Grille was okay, though a bit on the greasy side. I ordered a burger cooked medium, but it came out super rare, which was a bit disappointing. On the plus side, the waitress was very friendly and attentive. The restaurant is quite busy, so I’d recommend making a reservation in advance to avoid waiting.

Delicious food, creative cocktails, and a great vibe! The service was the standout—fast and friendly. Definitely coming back

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.

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!

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.
