"It’s hard to deny a classic and The Stockyards is an Arizona original, literally. Opened in 1947 and known as the first steakhouse in the state, the restaurant has a place on the Phoenix Historical Register for its importance to the local cattle industry and architectural design. Just as important are the list of Stockyards Steaks, still cooked to perfection, and the complimentary basket of biscuits and cornbread muffins that are almost as legendary as the beef." - Asonta Benetti
