The Arizona Restaurant Association (ARA) has announced the return of its bi-annual feast for the senses, Arizona Restaurant Week (ARW). This event will run from Friday, Sept. 8 through Sunday, Sept. 17, serving up 10 days of tantalizing tastes from across the state.
During the 2023 Fall ARW, diners are invited to embark on a culinary journey, exploring the diverse food and beverage options Arizona has to offer, all at an enticing fraction of the usual cost. The event spotlights a vast array of eateries, ranging from independently owned, chef-driven establishments to five-star dining experiences, offering a cornucopia of cuisine to please every palate.
“ARW has been delighting our dining community for over 15 years. Each iteration brings more excitement, with new and returning restaurants offering an extensive range of options,” says ARA President and CEO Steve Chucri.
Participating restaurants will present special menus featuring seasonally fresh and occasionally limited-availability ingredients. Often, these menus include dishes not usually offered, giving diners a unique opportunity to sample chefs’ culinary creativity. Guests can anticipate three-course prix-fixe menu priced at $33, $44, or $55 per person (sometimes per couple), with wine or cocktail pairings available at an additional cost for an enhanced ARW experience.
While fall ARW typically sees participation from over 150 state-wide restaurants, more than 80 have already signed up for the 2023 event. The list includes acclaimed eateries such as Alter Ego Kitchen and Cocktails, Indian Delhi Palace, MATCH Market & Bar, and Timo Wine Bar, among others.
Detailed information about participating restaurants and their exclusive menus will be available August 21 at arizonarestaurantweek.com.
