Midtown Phoenix has a new spot for seafood, slow-smoked barbecue and cocktails with a Western twist. Cowboy Seafood, the latest concept from fourth-generation restaurateur Christopher Collins and Common Ground Culinary, officially opened October 9 at Park Central.
The 5,000-square-foot restaurant was created as a love letter to Collins’ own neighborhood. Developed in collaboration with Plaza Companies, Cowboy Seafood blends the warmth of a Southern smokehouse with the relaxed atmosphere of a coastal restaurant. The space features an 80-seat dining room, a 22-seat island bar, a 12-seat community table and an 80-seat patio, offering plenty of options for different occasions.
