Steakhouse · Phoenix, AZ · Since 1950

The overview

Enter through the kitchen. Since 1950.

Durant's has been Phoenix's clubby, red-leather steakhouse since 1950 — a time capsule where regulars famously enter through the kitchen, the martinis are stiff, and the aged steaks and oysters Rockefeller never change. Founder Jack Durant's larger-than-life legend still hangs over the dim, plush rooms.

A Central Avenue institution for 75 years, Durant's is the 2026 Centurion Award winner for Best Steakhouse in Phoenix.
