I go out to PHX area quite a bit and there are two places I always love to go to...
1. The Melting Pot - this place is fantastic, its a bit of a chain place, but very limited. everything is fondue style - all the courses... It's a interesting but very very yummy expereince.
2. Tarbelle's - this place is fantastic, I'm a NJ / New Yorker and this places comes as close as possible to 3/4 star NYC quality in terms of food and service. They use fresh stuff and have great chefs.
There is only one Tarbelle's and two Melting Pot Locations...
Both are must trys!
