A Feast Across the Valley: Arizona Restaurant Week Returns to Phoenix


By  • April 18, 2025

Arizona Restaurant Week is plating up something special once again from May 16 to May 25, 2025, offering diners across Phoenix and beyond the chance to enjoy exclusive three-course prix-fixe menus at $33, $44, or $55.

Hosted by the Arizona Restaurant Association, this popular 10-day culinary event showcases nearly 200 restaurants—from acclaimed fine dining spots to beloved neighborhood gems. Reservations are strongly recommended and can be made directly through restaurants or via arizonarestaurantweek.com, where full menus and participant lists will go live by May 1.

Menus are thoughtfully curated by participating chefs, often featuring a mix of crowd favorites and seasonal creations. Whether you’re craving bold global flavors or classic comfort food, there’s something on the table for everyone. Here’s a taste of what to expect, grouped by cuisine to help guide your appetite.

Southwestern & Latin Flair

Experience the essence of Arizona with dishes rooted in rich, regional tradition. Favorites like The Mission Kierland, The Mexicano, and Toca Madera are known for their upscale takes on Mexican cuisine, while newcomers like Miel de Agave offer a fresh spin with mezcal-infused creativity.

Twenty-five years deserved a new look. This summer we launched a rebuilt bellapalazzo.com. Organized the Way Guests Search Guests rarely search for a house. They search for a pool, a hot tub, a home that takes dogs, somewhere near the golf course. The new site is organized that way. More than fifty estates across eight Arizona destinations now sit behind curated collections and proper destination pages, so a home that used to wait in a long list appears in front of guests already looking for exactly what it offers. Found Before We Are Chosen Pages are structured so search engines index them quickly and read them clearly. The newer question is how travelers search at all. A growing number now ask an AI assistant where to stay in Scottsdale rather than working through pages of results, and those assistants answer from sites they can read and trust. Being named in that answer matters more each month for reaching a guest who has never heard of us. Why Direct Bookings Matter Booking direct is offered at every turn, with our best rate guaranteed and our concierge team reachable from the first inquiry. A direct booking carries no platform commission, so more of the nightly rate reaches the owner, and it gives us the guest's contact details rather than a masked address that expires at checkout.  Returning guests often book earlier and stay longer. They also arrive knowing the home and the team behind it. The site is built to earn that first direct booking and make the next one easier.
