The Diamondback Grill

Great food in a town filled with «Bar» and grill places.
I had the tabletop burger. Excellent flavor, shredded white cheddar cheese. The tomato was actually red inside. Wow. Not the usual white inside freez er tomatos. It was cooked medium well, just as I asked for. .the potato cheese soup was great. I’m glad I didn’t get the usual French fries. Wifey had the smoked bacon BLT. Wonderful. I would go back for sure.

The quality of the food has definitely gone downhill since the new owners took over. Too bad!

Burger was ok. Nothing special. The place smells musty and like cigarettes from a long time ago. Service was great. I think I will have to give it another try. The bill was reasonable for the area.

Usually the experiences that we have here has been fairly favorable. This is the first time we have been there since it changed ownership, and it just wasn’t the same. We were pretty excited that our food came so quickly because it has never came that fast before. We then realized why… I had ordered a turkey burger, it was cold and still pink in the middle. Then my boyfriends burger was way undercooked and as he got to the last quarter of the burger it was completely frozen, and raw! Both of us were very disappointed. This use to be our go to date night spot, but unfortunately I am not sure we will be eating here again anytime soon or anytime at all in the future. Very sad, hopefully they can work out the kinks and make it good again so that we can go back and enjoy their food.

As the 5 star and 1 star reviews suggest, this place is hit or miss. Largely, it depends on what you order, whom you order from, and when you order (as in, how busy it is at the time). When they’re busy, forget about prompt service. It isn’t going to happen. Also, check your food; they tend to make mistakes when busy.
The wine bar is pretty good. It was much better before they added the extra tables. Now it’s crowded and loud. The guys in the wine bar are very good, so a shout out to them.
The food is better than average for the area. I used to be a lot better. In my opinion, it has slipped quite a bit. Cheese plates are usually great.
However, all in all, given the decline in service, experience and food quality, I rarely go here anymore.

This is one of the better eateries in the Sonora area, especially if you like to pair up your meal with a glass of wine. A favorite among the locals, I know some that come up from the valley just for the skirt steak and the buffalo burger. Being connected to the wine bar next door means that they have a great selection of local wines as a complement to their local beef. Parking on the block behind the frontage is very convenient.

Please please turn the wine bar back into a wine bar. Not very relaxing having to share it with screaming kids now. You want people to buy more wine? That’s not the way to do it… We couldn’t wait to get out. There’s so few adult places to relax here anymore… This was one of them but not anymore. I will say I love the two guys in there. Very friendly, professional and fun

Although the food was good, the service was terrible! The waitress skipped our table and said she’d come back and never did until my friend made a stink about it. After the meal, we received someone else’s bill which was more than 3−4x what it should have been, I thought this was corrected when I signed my receipt but upon reviewing my credit card statement I see they charged the same wrong amount! So if you go here, expect bad service and check your bill carefully…

Had the ribeye steak with grilled zucchini and garlic basil mash! Great over all steak was easy to chew and juicy with that good flavor! Look and atmosphere is also great! Last but not least the bread pudding is tasty! The only critique is there French fries could be better!

This place rocks! Burgers to die for. I got the ribeye with blue cheese this time. Very big portion and the house salad was so tasty.

The worst service ever, and we’ve given them many opportunities. Management even handled the situation extremely poorly. Won’t be going back ever and will tell everybody we know not to go anymore.

My prepackaged, frozen, paper thin hamburger came totally uncooked. Have also seen friends post pictures of raw meat after I told them my story. While the burgers have gotten thicker and look hand made NOW, you can do a lot better for a burger joint in these parts. Made me sick never going back. Thankfully this trip was with a gift card from a holiday party.

We came in for lunch with two children. Initially, our server was great, very friendly and helpful, especially since we had children. Unfortunately, this was the best part of the meal. Our food was taking forever, after about 45 minutes, she let us know that the kitchen was running behind, only after noticing that the kids were looking really impatient. The food finally arrived after another 20 minutes. The kitchen appeared to be fully staffed, yet still it was over an hour for three hamburgers, that they nicely split for the children. I ordered my hamburger medium rare, but it came well done, the fries all tasted off (my suspicion that they were using old oil), especially the sweet potato fries that had a funky musty flavor. Overall a long wait for a totally not great meal.

4 of us (2 vegetarians & 2 meat lovers) had a great meal here. From the soup, salad, entrée & dessert. The server was very nice & accommodating. Sorry it took us so long to try this place. We’ll definitely be back!

One of the cutest local places to eat I’ve been in in a long time! Atmosphere was great. A ton of wines and cheeses to choose from. Found a new favorite Moscato, Cameron Hughes! Amazing and large hamburger, the Ortega and Jack. Good garlic fries, but could’ve used a stronger infusion of garlic in my opinion. Super sweet hostess/​waitress too! We will definitely be back for more! Good for couples and very small groups.

During dinner rush without a reservation we were seated quickly. They are well staffed, organized and very friendly. Our waitress was happy, attentive and efficient. Old Town Sonora is a full of folks like us on vacation, but this place is not a tourist trap. The food is amazing and moderately priced. We don’t drink alcohol, but they offer a great variety of beverages. You can see the kitchen staff working with energy and producing the most wonderful variety of sandwiches and burgers.

Went there on a date night with my husband. We were seated by the kitchen where orders go in and come out which I thought was odd. I was facing the kitchen and I could see all of the food being cooked. It was all frozen yuck! We both ordered a burger and they were so dry I had to keep drinking my water just to get it down. They rave about their garlic fries nothing to rave about. They were soggy fries with minced garlic thrown on top they could have at least sautéed the garlic first. They get one star because the waitress was nice. Will not go back.

This place has the best Tostada salad with just a hint of heat. Mix that with a heffe micro brew to make a fantastic experience. Love this place!

Another great experience at the Diamond Back, wine bar. I have to say, the owner knows how to pick good wines. Do wine flights, and order some cheese to go with it. The flights are decently priced and the pours are generous. The best Sonora has to offer for nice dinning with a great atmosphere! I only wish there were a few more options for appetizers and maybe the salads could be a little more «gourmet.»

Great place to eat! The garlic fries are killer. Service was great couldn’t of found a better place to eat diner. The door handle is a rattle snake! The wall is a half of a rattle snake! There are crazy paintings on the distressed walls.
My BLT was great dads ultimate grilled cheese was incredible and mom said the steak in her flat iron salad melted in her mouth.
