Phoenix restaurants, ranked by value

57 restaurants with enough priced items to score, out of 58 restaurants and 7601 menu rows we have read. Each score is the average of that restaurant’s items against the Phoenix median for the same kind of thing — its ribeye against every ribeye, its burger against every burger — so negative is cheaper than the city. Pete's Fish & Chips is the widest at 62% under; JG Steakhouse is 165% over.

A casual room and an upscale one are not the same product, so the tier is shown — compare within it. Add-ons, prix-fixe supplements and anything listed at “market price” are left out rather than guessed, and a restaurant with fewer than 5 comparable items is not ranked.

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.
