Located in downtown Phoenix, this classic steakhouse is busy night and day. The business crowd, including many of the Valley's movers and shakers, comes for the sandwiches (don't miss the Reuben or French dip) at lunch, while local celebs,… Read Full Editorial
My Review by rickg1264080148 via Citysearch on 12/8/2016
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! Durant???s does take you back in time. …
My Review by clydem651251161 via Citysearch on 2/27/2014
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 by georgeweinberg via Citysearch on 5/3/2011
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 by linablanko via Citysearch on 3/29/2011
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…
Marginal at best by Lisa B via Insider Pages on 11/28/2008
I've been to Durant's twice. The first time the service was great, the food was pretty good and the overall experience was definitely worth returning on a future date. However, the second time I went, they lost our reservation and then…
Not bad, not great by katherine y via Insider Pages on 10/7/2008
The service was excellent. The food was ok, but not great for the price. It was a good experience overall. The desert was phenomenal. I would recommend trying it, but will not be a regular patron.
OVER-RATED by Naomi823 via Citysearch on 6/17/2008
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…

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…
Durant's rocks by garygilbert via Citysearch on 2/7/2008
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…
Not all it's supposed to be.... by Karen A via Insider Pages on 10/11/2007
We had dinner here the other night and were quite excited to try out and "old Phoenix establishment". It was a bit disappointing. Very pricey, small, crowded and the location was really undesirable. Additionally, my husbands New York Strip…
WORST SERVICE EVER!!! by onyxblackattack via Citysearch on 8/6/2007
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…
Fine dining on Central Ave by Khoi D via Insider Pages on 5/9/2007
This is supposed to be a fancy fine dining place. I found the food to be only okay and pricey. They have valet service and the inside is formal. They don't allow any cell phone use inside either. I tried it once but don't plan on going…
A Classic Restaurant by lt2 via Citysearch on 1/1/2007
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…
SAVE YOURSELF, DON'T LOOK BACK by phoenixduffy via Citysearch on 9/7/2006
FADED, FADED, FADED !!! WHAT A DUMP THE GLORY DAYS ARE OVER, IF YOU DO NOT USE A CANE, WALKER OR WHEELCHAIR YOU PROBABLY WILL NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE. GUESS WHAT? THE RATPACK DOES NOT HANG OUT HERE !!!
Meat and martinis (and maybe even a few mobsters) have made this retro restaurant a legendary downtown hangout. by Contributor via Citysearch on 7/21/2006
In Short
To keep the comings and goings of its more infamous guests secret, diners have entered through the kitchen since 1950. Today, the swinging doors are portals into another era where tycoons sup next to socialites and…
Disappointment by bcmorgan1 via Citysearch on 12/12/2005
Durant's is supposed to be known for their wonderful dishes and unsurpassed service. Unfortunately, our last visit there was very disappointing. We visited on our way to the ballet on a Saturday evening. The food was luke warm at best,…
The best steakhouse in Phoenix by M H. via Judy's Book on 8/15/2005
Durant’s is, by far, my absolute favorite Steakhouse in all of Phoenix. With its red-lined interior and tuxedoed servers, Durant’s is a throwback to an earlier time. The atmosphere is causally elegant, and the food is stellar. Try the…
Real Food and Real People by rstairs via Citysearch on 5/18/2005
We travelled from Houston for a conference in Phoenix, and were directed to this fine dining mecca! I was quickly a tad impressed by the valet parking in the back but to enter through the kitchen BLEW me away! The staff greeted you as…
Durant's - starting to fade? by benbethel via Citysearch on 5/4/2005
I love many aspects of Durants - the ambiance, the drinks, the onion rings... but lately it seems that their food is getting really pricey for a non-foodie meal and they're always trying to upcharge you - get the smallest filet mignon…
EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! by tdfernichio via Citysearch on 3/12/2004
What can I say except this has to be one of the best restaurants in Phoenix. Excellent food and service. They make you feel like you are the only person in the restaurant and that is what I call service!!!!!!!!!!!!
