Crab claws

In my humble opinion…good friends, great steaks and the best booze are the necessities of life.
- Jack Durant

Durant’s, an institution in Phoenix, opened its doors over 50 years ago as one of Arizona’s first steakhouses. Legends and stories overflow the dining room at Durant’s as free flowing as the quality wines and martinis. Every Phoenix native has a story to share, a fond memory, an engagement, a tall tale, a humorous episode.

“I met my first love here back in…”
“Late one night in that corner booth a gang of mobsters…”
“Jack Durant slapped me on the back, shook my hand and…”

The tradition continues today as Durant’s serves up excellent steaks, fresh seafood, perfect martinis and heavenly desserts to a whole new generation of loyal patrons. Durant’s staff, many of whom have been serving Durant’s customers for decades, are friendly and attentive. If you can’t find your favorite item on the menu, they’ll do their best to prepare it for you.

Served in a cozy yet sophisticated 1950’s atmosphere, Durant’s menu features all varieties of steak, fresh Florida stone crab, live lobster, shrimp and oysters and a selection of sides such as roasted garlic mashed potatoes and steamed asparagus as well as a variety of salads. The restaurant features a full service bar and an extensive list of unique quality wines. The staff can suggest an after dinner drink to compliment any of Durant’s divine dessert selections, which include crème brulee, fudge brownie pie, cheesecake, strawberry shortcake and fresh berries.

Serving stories as fine as their steaks. Experience the legend - Durant’s.
