Durant’s Fine Food

Durant’s Fine FoodEnter Durant’s through the kitchen from humble parking lot entrance. The red carpet’s for you. The decor at Durant’s is dark woods with red walls. They don’t make ‘em like this anymore. There is no dress code at Durant’s, but I wouldn’t go in shorts. Business casual is appropriate. It’s a little too loud to be romantic, but ask for a corner table if two of you want to be alone. Durant’s prides itself on it extensive wine list. Reservations are highly recommended at Durant’s.

Durant’s is not a chain - it’s a one-of-a-kind dining establishment serving lunch and dinner. Durant’s is an icon. Opened in 1950, there’s quite a unique history here, and the stories may or may not be true. You can be certain, though, that many a celebrity has eaten here, and many decisions about the City of Phoenix and the State of Arizona were probably made over one of Durant’s porterhouse steaks, a glass of bourbon, and a fine cigar.
