About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Hot spot
Great for creative cocktails

From the Pretty Decent Concepts team comes Filthy Animal. Elegant and wild, this concept is inspired by the beauty and brutality of the jungle. Featuring a wood fire cooking pit as the focal point of the restaurant, this concept is delivering a dining experience like no other in Arizona.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: Stepping into Filthy Animal is a transportive experience, thanks to a sexy dining room done up in rich leathers, dark wood, and hanging greenery—all centered around a large jaguar. The global restaurant comes from the team behind popular spots Wren & Wolf and Carry On, and must-tries on the wood-fire-driven menu include tuna pineapple ceviche and spicy grilled lobster with mala sauce and gochujang butter. Pro tip: Don't miss Drop Dead Gorgeous, the disco-inspired cocktail bar hidden inside.

Would not come back. Only saving thing about this place is the food. Horrible service, horrible host staff. When arriving asked if we could get a drink in the speakeasy. Was told it as completely booked. Asked a different host to be told we could be taken back and it was empty. Only fine dining establishment in the valley who charges for 1 $14 desert on a birthday on a $700 tab. Also tried to order Branzino with no skin and was told it was not possible (most other restaurants will take skin off fish if that is preferred).

The best food concept in arizona, I being in all places that they owned and they are always great and the best. I have a lot of client who work late on the day and always complain about its not restaurant open after 10 and this owners of restaurants concept always help me to accommodate my clients when we have a meeting never rushing always putting the service and food first. I love and I hope people understand how valuable it’s having this concept of restaurant outside of Scottsdale and Phoenix. Thanks 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Something unique in a time when that's a challenge. Replace plastic greens as decoration. Front door is hidden. Elote Asada is wonderful.

We went for lunch. It was not crowded & so not noisy. Food was delicious. Peanut salad had great new taste. Beef sandwich was also delicious. We shared & the sharing plates are small. We had to ask for clean sharing plates after the salad for the sandwich. We did not want a sandwich full of salad dressing. Salad & sandwich were served at the same time. I would rather finish salad & then have sandwich. We ate the salad first & the dirty salad plates were not cleared as quickly as I expected in a restaurant of this caliber. Decor is beautiful. Service was friendly. It is a nice addition to the neighborhood.

The food and the service was amazing. It was a little loud because we were seated very close to the kitchen. The place is really cool and so is the speakeasy that’s hidden in the restaurant. Definitely need to experience it if you haven't been.

Thank you for joining us for dinner Greg! Was it our speakers or the kitchen itself that was a little too loud? We are always looking for constructive criticism, and would love to improve in time for your next visit!

We went here on a date night and it was a great choice! Taylor was our server and had fantastic recommendations and service. We loved the dumplings, steak and Mac n cheese lobster. Cocktails were divine, If you want to fine the perfect drink for you, ask Taylor, he nails it.

Taylor is awesome! Thank you for the shoutout Alex. I'll pass along your message to him. Hope to see you back soon!
