Metro Phoenix has no shortage of exceptional steakhouses, but Harry & Izzy’s has arrived with the pedigree, personality and plates to immediately earn a place on the must-visit list.
Located at the reimagined PV, Harry & Izzy’s marks the upscale American grill’s first location outside Indiana. Inspired by the enduring friendship of Harry Roth and Izzy Rosen, the restaurant combines timeless sophistication, Midwest hospitality and a lively atmosphere that makes dinner feel like an occasion without becoming overly formal.

And the ambience is exceptional. The beautifully designed restaurant feels luxurious yet inviting, creating an ideal backdrop for everything from date night and celebrations to business dinners and cocktails with friends. The attention to detail in the surroundings mirrors what arrives on the plate.
Our recent visit started with the legendary St. Elmo Shrimp Cocktail ($24.95) — and calling its signature cocktail sauce spicy is almost an understatement. The horseradish-powered kick delivers an unforgettable jolt that makes this famous appetizer an absolute must.
The Toasted Ravioli ($15) offered comforting deliciousness and disappeared quickly, while the Seared Ahi Tuna ($32) provided a lighter, beautifully executed counterpoint.
But make no mistake: The steaks are the stars of the show.
The 8-ounce Filet Mignon ($62) was everything a great filet should be — tender, flavorful and expertly prepared. For those looking to go bigger, the impressive Bone-In Cowboy Ribeye ($82) delivers the rich, beefy flavor that makes a classic steakhouse experience so satisfying.
The menu shines beyond beef, too. The Scallops ($55) were another standout, while the Berkshire Pork Chop ($47) proved that choosing something other than steak doesn’t mean sacrificing indulgence.
Whatever entrée you order, make room for the Brussels Sprouts ($15). They’re the kind of side dish that can unexpectedly become one of the most talked-about bites of dinner. Simply put: Don’t leave without trying them.
Harry & Izzy’s beverage program also deserves attention. Its handcrafted cocktails are outstanding, complementing the restaurant’s energetic atmosphere and providing the perfect way to begin — or extend — an evening.
And save room for dessert. The restaurant’s incredible desserts provide an appropriately indulgent finale to a meal defined by big flavors, premium ingredients and polished execution.
What ultimately makes Harry & Izzy’s special is how seamlessly everything comes together: striking design, genuine hospitality, memorable cocktails, excellent seafood, crave-worthy starters and, above all, spectacular steaks.
With its arrival at PV, Harry & Izzy’s hasn’t simply opened its first restaurant outside Indiana. It has given Metro Phoenix steak lovers and foodies a delicious new destination — and one that deserves a spot near the top of your dining bucket list.
