                        Very good experience. The place was jumping at 6 pm on a Friday. Seated promptly after the main hostess looked overwhelmed with her head buried in her tablet and no eye contact. sat in a clean but well worn booth. Server was a pro. He was informative and had a warm presence. Took care of my sister and I without being obtrusive. from the steak to the salads, veggies, and house specialty was desert were all very, very good. It sure looked like an older local crowd and waiter said they get tons of regulars. Hats off to PCG and all of the above is why they have been in business for decades at this location. Been at least 30....30 YEARS since I had darkened the door here. I will return.

                        PCG is a terrific casual restaurent with very fresh food and a mix of old favorites and new things on the menu. It has a bit of old Phoenix charm and has ample indoor and outdoor dining space as well as a bar and private dining. Highly recommended for an excellent meal in a casual environment. Not too noisy either inside!

                        My teenage children and I ate at Phoenix City Grille while on vacation. We found it on Yelp and liked the menu! The service was great and incredibly fast, and the food was delicious. We did not quite fit the vibe, though - I think we were the youngest people there by quite a few years. Still, a yummy meal.

                        Chile verde pork appetizer excellent. Flank steak very good choice, and the burgers also very good. Efficient service, casual atmosphere, would definitely come back.
