Scottsdale is no stranger to culinary reinvention, but few transformations are as significant as this. Prime Steak Concepts, the acclaimed restaurant group behind some of Arizona’s most high-profile dining destinations, has acquired the beloved Chart House property in McCormick Ranch.

Prime Steak Concepts (known for Dominick’s Steakhouse, Steak 44, Ocean 44, and Durant’s) has confirmed plans to introduce a brand-new restaurant concept on the site. While they’re keeping specifics close to the chest for now, the team has made one thing clear: this will not be a replica of their existing concepts. Instead, the project will be a ground-up creation, designed to bring something entirely new to Scottsdale’s ever-evolving culinary scene.
“We are excited to bring a new concept and new building to this incredible location.

My brother Mike and I grew up just a few blocks away in McCormick Ranch, and this is the perfect place for us to do something very special that fits this iconic location.”…
