Every entree price we could read off a menu in metro Phoenix and Scottsdale: 502 of them at 53 restaurants, from $3.00 to $111.00, median $21.70. Of the 502 we can compare, 157 come in 15% or more under the Phoenix median for the same kind of thing.
“vs median” is that one price against the Phoenix median for its own kind of item — a ribeye against ribeyes, a margarita against margaritas — so negative is cheaper than the city. It is a price comparison and not a quality one. The 100 best-value rows are printed below; the live page lists all 502.
Prices are the restaurants’ own, read from the menu linked on every row on the date we checked, and re-read weekly. Nothing here is sponsored and nothing paid moves the order.
