Local. Fresh. Signature.

Tempe is home to the East Valley’s newest independent steakhouse, and it’s owned by a local chef with an impressive pedigree. Chad Bolar’s resume includes stints at Christopher’s Crush, Wrigley Mansion, Meridiem Kitchen and Lounge, and Pesto’s. Now he’s striking out on his own with a new venture called The Peppermill, which describes itself as “a modern-day steakhouse with French and Asian influences that features “classic steakhouse dishes and not-so-classic inspirational entrees.”
