Restaurants near Knights Inn Fairground

My wife and I had dinner at Blanco before attending a Phoenix Suns game. The restaurant was very busy but all of the staff we encountered were friendly and accommodating. We were seated before our reservation time and our orders were taken and delivered promptly. Both of us had chicken burritos and they were delicious. This will be our new go-to spot for pre event dinners in downtown Phoenix.

Rough Rider delivered on all levels. Service, atmosphere, food and drinks were all on point. Our party enjoyed the Baked Crab dip to start. Then we proceeded with the Pork Chop, Ribeye and Roasted Chicken. Our table could not help sharing with each other as everything was so good. For drinks we had a few and the balance they have developed really set them apart from other restaurants we have frequented recently. The True American, Game Theory, Summer of George and Happy Birthday Mr President all shined through. This was a relatively last minute find for us and one that did not less us down and gave us a memorable evening together to celebrate. We will definitely be returning

Our server Miranda was great! My husband and I both had the holiday spiced pear old fashioned which was perfect. Our table of 3 had the pretzel bites - super yummy. Pretzels were soft and fresh and the fondue flavorful and creamy. Meatloaf, Prime rib french dip and Kobe burger, all delicious. Some people might say the service is a bit slow at times but I don’t like to be rushed through a dinner out so I liked the pace.

Absolutely perfect. My boyfriend and I are visiting from California and I wanted to bring him somewhere memorable for his birthday…this place made the cut!! We love the ambiance of the sultry atmosphere but even greater than that was the thoughtful and expertly orchestrated plates. Our server was so wonderful also. She was extremely knowledgeable and offered amazing suggestions. Couldn’t be happier! Highly recommend!!

They changed the menu and we didn’t like it as much as we used to. Also, the waiter made us wait so long to get a drink and was really just lackluster and flatlined. Not super friendly or attentive but he did take a dish off the bill that we didn’t care for that was quite bland.
