Surf and Turf special with mash and broccolini. Scallops were sublime.
Charles E.

Gina was an incredible server- we were greeted by her promptly and felt thoroughly welcomed. From the beverages, appetizers, mains, desserts, and a special treat for the birthday boy, the upscale, prime quality couldn't have been better. We were a lively party of 7 and Bob's kept up with us and exceeded expectations. We appreciate the intimate dining room over the wide open, corralled four walls of the "other" competitor in Tucson. The ambiance lends itself to better conversation and a more enjoyable experience. We are repeats and will repeat again. Well done, Bob's and Gina.

Halibut Oscar with mashed potatoes and asparagus
Phoenix A.

What went well? EVERYTHING! Came here for a few reasons, 1) to spend time with family, 2) to spend time with said family trying out a restaurant that no one in our party had been to yet, and 3) to celebrate the birthday of someone in our party. We made Saturday dinner reservations through OpenTable and were met with a most welcoming greeting by Vee. We were taken great of by our server Bruno and the rest of the attentive staff. Loved that the centerpiece of our table was a jar of pickled cucumbers and peppers available for us to partake in along with our bread and butter. With that I indulged in a Chopin martini up with bleu cheese stuffed olives. Libations were enjoyed with our appetizer pick of tuna tartare (grade A tuna, sesame oil, Hawaiian sea salt, and Sriracha) - deliciousness! For my entree I went against the steak consensus at our table and ordered the special, halibut served Oscar style with mashed potatoes and asparagus. No "regerts" whatsoever, all very tasty and flavorful. Also went against pairing rules and shared a bottle of merlot from my favorite brand, Frog's Leap (although I would have ordered the cab except that birthday boy got to choose). To close out our meal we shared the complimentary birthday dessert, a very dense chocolate cake, the Nilla wafer-crusted key lime pie, refreshingly yummy, and a rich crème brûlée. Our experience met the high expectations of our extremely critical crew - an ex server, a curmudgeon-y carnivore, a guest who makes neophyte servers cry (Bruno is a grown man so I think he would have been ok either way), a weekend warrior Iron Chef type, a whole table of wine snobs save for the designated driver. Lit with distant views of the golf course, the dining room has an intimate feel with high-backed chairs, rich cellar-like wood decor, acoustics that allow you to hear your table's conversations. Acoustics is a critical point for me because if voices are bouncing all over the restaurant and you can only hear that one dude who is not even sitting next to you, forget it. I said that the staff was attentive but not helicoptering. All of us would return here again for a special occasion. Bob's had been recommended to us by our parents and particularly discerning foodies. They were not wrong!

Wine selection
Clarisa M.

The wine selection here is fantastic, and the service truly stood out. We mentioned to our server, that my husband loves Diet Coke and cookies for dessert even though it wasn't on the menu. The next day, he surprised us by sending cookies and Diet Cokes to our room. Such a thoughtful gesture, and completely unexpected.. On top of that, everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend! Shout out to Bruno!

Jessica D.

Came here for fancy steak dinner and heard lots of great things about this restaurant. I would say that the food is ok for the hefty price. I would have hoped for something spectacular for the overall cost of the menu items. Overall I think it was a very average steak dinner.The carrots are huge! The service was great however. The ambiance is golf clubesque, people were dressed in a range of dressed up.

Duck
Michael T.

I really wanted to like this place, I read the reviews and mostly they're very good. It was a special night and my wife and I went to celebrate. We arrived early so we had a drink at the bar, excellent drink. There was a lady beside me who had ordered the surf and turf and it looked awesome. So I felt that would be my meal. My wife had the tuna tartare and I had thick bacon to start. I blame myself for asking for it "a little" crispy. Her tartare was actually poke and not tartare and my bacon was well overcooked. For our mains she ordered duck breast (medium) and I ordered surf and turf (medium rare). I guess they had some issues with the meals as they brought us a bowl of lobster bisque each because it was taking so long. The bisque was delicious. When the meals came we were both disappointed. Hers was bland and was very light in the cherry sauce and her potatoes were substandard at best. My meal was not 2 3oz filets and a 6 oz lobster tail but more of 1 4 or 5 oz filet and a 4 oz lobster tail, (see pics). My potatoes were good. I could have forgiven this but the steak had a very strong chemical taste, like when you grill on charcoal and use fluid but put meat on too soon. Perhaps they used a butane torch to sear my steak? I don't know but I do know it wasn't anywhere near the best steak in town. Desert was very good. The only reason this is a 3 star and not less is the staff. They were excellent. The place itself is a nice place and comfortable seating and you didn't have to speak loud to be heard. I can understand why some give this place high marks because the lady's meal looked awesome, just like a picture they'd use to advertise. Mine wasn't good, lobster was about 1/2 the size of hers. The GM, a very nice lady, bragged this was the best steak house around but I've been to Flemings, The Keg, and others and this didn't come close to the level of expectation you have for a $100 steak.

NY Strip

From service to food, this is definitely a 5 star experience! Nicole was an excellent bartender with great dinner recommendations. Craft cocktails from their menu are the way to start the evening. The scallops appetizer paired with their thick cut bacon was decadent. All of their steaks are Prime - I haven't seen this anywhere in Tucson. NY Strip was delicious along with the accompaniments - carrots and potatoes. Crème brûlée for dessert was the perfect way to end the evening. Tom was the manager and his hospitality was first class. I can't wait to come back!

Crab cake
Briana R.

LOVE coming to Bob's for special occasions! We celebrated my husband's 40th with our best friends and the food, service, and ambiance was spectacular. We shared the crab cakes to start and then led into salads. Everyone loved their ribeye and filet steaks and the carrot is always a plus. They treated us to carrot cake and it was unmatched! Highly recommend for special occasions or a romantic dining experience.

Ask the Community - Bob's Steak & Chop House

Do they have a dress code?

It's recommended to where nicer attire at Bob's, but it isn't required, to my knowledge.

Their menu sounds fantastic; can anyone elaborate on the pricing? The menu appears devoid of any pricing.

Price is higher end but worth every cent! :)

Several of us never finished the bowl, which I've never seen happen before, and we certainly did not ask for more.

I would not go back just because of the salsa, which is standard start of a Southwest meal, especially when bringing out of town guests. Esp when tab is well over $250.

The first thing I need to own is that it's a shame I hadn't visited here before. We arrived at 5:30p and both the bar and patio areas were packed - standing room only, and no wonder. They have one of the better happy hours (daily! 3:00 - 6:30p) - able to accommodate both the slacker and the over-timer Lol. Basic drinks are all discounted such as house wines, well drinks, and beers. Their bottled wines and craft cocktails are all exempt though. Many of their appetizers are also discounted and some quite substantially. We grabbed a glass of the house cabernet ($6, normally $8) and the grilled shrimp wrapped in jalapeno bacon ($13, normally $20). NOTE: happy hour pricing is Only available if you order/consume at the bar or on the patio and that's clear in advance, and understandable. The dining areas were only half full at this early point (but filled up by 6:30) and the host kindly encouraged us to enjoy our starters at the bar as she would hold our table. We were then sat near the "back" of this long venue and frankly, aside from the lone windowed table at the very front, this would be my preferred seating - cozy, intimate, with only five other tables around us. For dinner drinks she got an Italian Nebbiolo Bricco Magno Red Blend ($13/glass, reliably terrific/mellow) and I got the Chupacabra ($15) Mezcal/prickly pear cocktail, strong and excellent as well. We got an additional appetizer: the roasted bone marrow ($19). I had never had marrow before but she raved about how good this can be if done properly (bonus, it is super healthy). Folks, a picture/worth a 1000... suffice to say this was simply outstanding! We both had long work weeks and were craving meat - just a damn good steak. Our waiter, without blinking recommended the 8oz bison filet mignon ($65) as his absolute menu fav, and then the day's special: 14oz ribeye ($50). We ordered each. All dinners come with two sides and we each got the day's special: roasted half artichoke and she got the loaded baked potato while I got the mashed potatoes. Food arrived about 15 minutes later at good temperature (warm/rested with a strong char) with each being accurately grilled (medium and medium-rare). Taste was outstanding. Neither one of us had bison filet before and marveled how it (subtly) added a "wild" edge to an always outstanding, lean-but-tender, cut of beef. The loaded baked was terrific, however, the mashed was the only disappointment... a plainer mash one could not make themselves - pure white and borderline dry, no milk, butter, egg, gravy(?), nothing to make it creamy or add any flavor dimension - a surprise frankly. The only other "critique" is that the dessert menu could add some kind of dark/chocolate concoction. All in all, though, we loved our experience and have decided to add this to our periodic special dinners rotation! Staff was outstanding - just the proper balance of attentive and quiet - and waters never went below half empty. Parking is free and plentiful, especially behind the restaurant (and yes, if you continue on around the back there is another long entrance/exit driveway that comes out the other side of Jimmy John's and Noodleholics.

It's right next to the University of Arizona on university and I loved it so much, I came back three nights in a row. Call me a creature of habit, but when you're out of town and you find something excellent, it's worth going back. It definitely has more of a bar vibe than it does a restaurant, but the food I ordered was incredible. If you're hungry, don't look at my pictures. Lol. With that area of town being so crowded, I thought parking was going to be an issue, but I found a spot right near the front of the restaurant every time. I walked right in, ordered at the bar, and was in and out in less than 12 minutes every time. On top of it all, I had the same person helping me from behind the bar each time and she was incredible. Friendly, accommodating, and if I was the manager, she'd be getting a raise. Ask for Alyssa and you won't be disappointed. Needless to say, anytime I am in Tucson, Arizona, I no longer have to search for a restaurant that I like. I'll definitely be back. PS - When they saw me come in for the third night in a row, the chef blessed me with a free slice of raspberry pie. That's quality customer service right there. Love this place.
