Blue Hound Kitchen & Cocktails
Next to Kimpton Hotel Palomar Phoenix, Blue Hound offers all the comforts of a neighborhood joint in the heart of downtown's bustling cityscape. Think sleek and urban, minus the fuss. Our New American-inspired kitchen focuses on a curated beef program and shareable sides for guests dining alone or among large groups.

Menu items range from fresh seafood, salads and shareable seasonal sides to Grilled Pork Tomahawk, Pork Ribs and 22-ounce Bone-in Ribeye. What separates Blue Hound from the rest of the pack (#pun!) is the artful pairing of seasonal food with handcrafted cocktails from the bar, where expert barkeeps concoct their own homemade tinctures and syrups-and oversee one of the Valley's largest menus of brown spirits.
Services
It's clear we are inspired by man's best friend. We want to be your new best friend downtown: business lunches, before or after D-Backs, Suns, or Mercury games, Talking Stick Resort Arena events, live music, comedy clubbing, dancing, or any urban adventure you choose. At Blue Hound, you'll find seasonal American fare meant for sharing and pairing--with craft cocktails, wine or beer, that is.
Our menu pleases every palate with chef-driven, New American cuisine, inventive handcrafted cocktails, a curated wine list and variety of microbrews. Whether you're joining us for brunch or dinner, you'll enjoy seasonal dishes that are exciting, approachable and always sourced from the best local farmers and purveyors we can find.

I will start by saying our service was wonderful. Christmas day afternoon dinner $65++ was the cost of a tri tip that despite good seasoning was very poor quality.
Duck was good. Soup was okay. Sides were a bit salty. Drinks were great.
Bread pudding was not pudding but burnt bread with 2 TBS of Ice cream. 1 of our party exchanged for peppermint cheesecake which turned out to be plain cheesecake with a chunk of white chocolate peppermint bark on the top.
We mentioned the meat. Got an apology but nothing more. After reviewing the bill we paid and left. Then realized the bill came to $120 a person

First time over a year ago, food was good. This time seven dishes and all were BAD! Undercooked, over dressed and cold food. Kale Cesar salad is arugula! Appetizers were also bad. Restaurant was nor crowded yet service was not good. Waiter pours entire contents of wine bottle into 3 glasses! I guess there is no training. This is DEFINITELY NOT worth the price. McDonalds is tastier!

Fast and friendly service. Drinks were delicious, but pretty pricey for what you get. The ambiance is modern and upbeat. There is an overwhelming smell of soap that permeates throughout the bar/restaurant. We didn’t try the food, but they offered unique and interesting plates.

Popped in to this place last night for a meal. Had the Bourbon Chicken. It was phenomenal. Great flavor and very juicy. Portion size was excellent too. Good atmosphere and great beverage selection. Thanks for a great experience!

Hubby and I decided to have Thanksgiving dinner at Blue Hound Kitchen. I usually make the big meal, but we no longer have family near and our oven is not working. Of the options for dining out on Thanksgiving we chose Blue Hound Kitchen because their Prix Fixe menu looked very appealing and reasonable in price. We loved it! Excellent in all ways. Ryan, our server, was wonderful. We enjoyed a Blue Mule cocktail that was one of the best cocktails we've ever tasted. Wow. Hubby went for the traditional Thanksgiving meal, turkey with the usual sides. The turkey was a combo of sliced breast and pulled

This was an amazing experience. We ordered the Small Plate All You Can Enjoy. Which allows you to ordered a little of everything on the brunch menu. It was delicious. We tried everything on the menu. My hubby and I will definitely go again.

Had dinner here after the Phoenix Symphony. Not a large menu but we chose the salmon, the chicken and the mushroom entree for the vegan. The salmon with brussel sprouts, apple and miso were delightful. The bourbon batter chicken was cooked to perfection. And the mushroom was satisfactory to the picky vegan.

Ok, so the food stood out for me here, especially those cheese curds and tator tots over gravy! That was sooo yummy! I then had their pork belly grilled cheese, over what I can assume was sourdough bread; the sandwich was tasty but could have used a slight kick, however the pork belly was cooked to perfection. Now, here is my main concern, the price for happy hour drinks was a bit high. They have a 9 dollar old fashioned made with Evan Williams Bourbon that was fine, but fine doesn't cut it at that price. In addition, the house wine was 7 a glass which is FAR too much considering the sugar content

Nice upscale place. Like a lot of places you use the scan code to get food.
May want to make reservations since it gets busy in Saturdays but, you can sit at the bar right away and order if there is room.
Food was good. Big fan of this sweet potato 🍟fries!

Our dinner was delicious BUT our waiter ADAM was the star ⭐️ of the show. He was very attentive to my daughters & I. There was a sincerity in his eyes & in his smile when he spoke to us. That’s a gift & a skill… that not everyone possesses. He is passionate about what he does & you can tell he takes JOY & PRIDE in it!!!! Adam, thanks for making my daughters & I feel special & thank you for keeping the Shirley Temples coming. We appreciate your service & we wish you well in your future endeavors.

Service was Awesome! Had a great time with my family celebrating my son's birthday! Food was alright. A bit overpriced and the food was undersized. Menu should have been a bit more selections.
