The Arizona Restaurant Association, the organization that advocates for and supports the hospitality industry throughout the state, has announced the return of its popular bi-annual Arizona Restaurant Week event. The 2024 Spring Arizona Restaurant Week (ARW), which offers the culinary community endless opportunities to dine on a deal, kicks off Friday, May 17 and goes through Sunday, May 26.
“We are thrilled that Arizona Restaurant Week continues to be a much-anticipated and well-attended event. It is a true testament to the state’s support of our growing hospitality industry,” said Arizona Restaurant Association President and CEO Steve Chucri. “Each event is different, allowing us to introduce diners to new restaurants and hidden gems around the state, which are sure to impress with delicious menus designed to satisfy your every craving.”
During these 10 days, diners are encouraged to explore a plethora of participating restaurants all around the state which will be featuring specific ARW menus that showcase the mastery of Arizona’s finest chefs. The ARW menus are a departure from the restaurants’ regular menus, allowing diners to get a new taste of even their favorite restaurants’ culinary breadth — at a fraction of typical costs.
Participating restaurants range from intimate chef-driven locales and independently owned restaurants to five-star fine dining establishments. A wide array of cuisines are represented during Arizona Restaurant Week so culinary enthusiasts can eat their way through this dining event without ever ordering the same meal twice (unless they want to!).
Typically, more than 150 restaurants around the state participate in this event. This allows diners to explore a variety of cuisines and a range of experiences across all price points. Currently, more than 75 restaurants are already committed to the 2024 Spring Arizona Restaurant Week.
Restaurants’ ARW menus allow chefs to present dishes with hyper-seasonal, limited-availability and trending ingredients and food styles. During Spring ARW, diners are offered a three-course prix-fixe menu for just $33, $44 or $55 per person (and in some cases, per couple!). Some establishments may also offer wine and or cocktail pairings for an additional charge to enhance the dining experience.
This year, Tito’s serves as a sponsor of the event. Many participating restaurants will be offering an exclusive Tito’s Spring ARW cocktail. Each restaurant can take creative license with its cocktail, providing Tito’s fans with an opportunity to try a variety of refreshing and tasty concoctions.
