We've been here several times as a family & have always enjoyed what we ordered while we are here. Our absolute favorite is the burnt end pizza. Just from pulling up you can smell the amazing aromas coming from the restaurant. When you get inside you can order, grab a seat, and your food is brought to your table. They also have a bar to order drinks if you want something other than soda. Even my picky kids loved their food! The meats were fantastic, the pizza was some of the best we've had and the sides were pretty great as well. I highly suggest getting the corn bread when you go! The gooey cake is really sweet, we only ate about half of it so we weren't loaded down with sugar. Restaurant wise I thought the place felt cozy and the next time we go we discussed sitting in the outdoor area during nice weather. Their bathrooms are also clean and well taken care of. The only thing I could think of that might be a negative is the restaurant itself is a bit dark, even with light coming in from the front windows the lights inside could be a bit brighter since there are no windows along the side of the building or in the back. Their prices are affordable especially for the amount of food you are provided.
This place is great! We drive 10 miles to go here often. Fantastic BBQ, delicious STL Style pizza, and super nice staff. What more could you want? Try meat toasted raviolis for something different and tasty. Also, try their mixed drinks. They have a really good bartender.
I ordered take out. The ribs and brisket. The staff was amazing. Super friendly!!! Both meats were divine. Right amount of salt and the bbq sauces were great. Thank you. Will definitely order again.
Pulled pork sandwich with fries & baked beans were fantastic. Variety of sauces. Fun atmosphere and fully stocked bar are worth the trip alone.
I had the pleasure of checking out Fraser’s Smokehouse last night, and I was so pleasantly surprised! Despite the cold and rainy weather keeping the crowds away, the cozy vibe of the restaurant and the warm, welcoming staff immediately made me feel right at home. We were seated quickly, and the service was top-notch from start to finish. To kick things off, I tried the Peach Daily cocktail—absolutely delicious and the perfect way to start the meal! The menu had so many tempting options, but I ended up going with the 2-meat combination plate, featuring some of the most tender and flavorful BBQ I’ve had in the Valley. I paired it with the Garlic Mashed Potatoes and the Roast Corn, and I can confidently say it was a meal that hit all the right notes. Everything was cooked to perfection! Fraser’s Smokehouse truly delivers some of the best BBQ around. I can’t wait to go back and try more of their incredible menu. Highly recommend this gem for anyone craving fantastic BBQ in a welcoming setting!
We took “the mom” here for her first time. Had an absolutely excellent meal with even better service from Lauren & Paul! It was a very relaxing and welcoming environment. We have every intention of returning again and bringing friends.
I was born and raised in the St Louis area, until I moved to Phoenix in 2000 when I was 25 years old. I have no idea how long Frasher’s Smokehouse has been around, as I recently just discovered (via a Google search for STL style pizza) that it serves STL style BBQ, pizza, and other goodies. Sad thing is, I’ve driven by this place numerous times and never even considered stopping in. Had there been any indication on the sign out front that it served STL style food, I would have tried it immediately. On to the food, which I will review from a St Louis native’s perspective. My wife started with the St Louis Salad. It was good (similar to Imo’s), but needs more provel cheese. Of course we got the toasted ravioli. The raviolis were slightly smaller than Imo’s, but still great. My son and I shared a large pizza - half pepperoni, half “the works”. It was fantastic. Closest pizza I’ve had to Imo’s outside of STL. The provel cheese was superb. However, where this place really shines is the Burnt Ends, which my wife ordered (and I had to sample). Tender, great smoky flavor, and pairs nicely with three choices of BBQ sauce. After enjoying our entrees, we were too full to have desert, but I just had to get a Gooey Butter Cake to go. I ate it shortly after getting back home, and it was delicious. Now that I know about this place, I will definitely make it a regular place to visit. On to some recommendations... Frasher’s Smokehouse really needs to lean in to its STL roots more. BBQ places are a dime a dozen, which is why I never noticed it before. We were there on a Friday night around 6:00pm, and aside from a local car club that was seated outside, there were only two other parties eating inside. They need something on the sign outside to indicate its STL style. They could also benefit from some STL decor inside the restaurant. Perhaps photos of the Arch, Busch Stadium, Anheuser-Busch signage, Cardinals/Blues sports memorabilia etc. I know there aren’t nearly as many St Louis natives in Phoenix as there are people from Chicago, New York, California, etc., but we are here, and there aren’t really any other places around like home.
Five stars isn’t enough! The service and the food was fantastic! Hana was such a pleasure and so accommodating. The brisket is to die for and the special dessert from the owner was scrumptious! We were so happy that we will be back with friends!
