The Arizona Restaurant Association is running its second annual Arizona Chef's Week from Friday, July 31, through August 9, 2026, with 70 Valley restaurants offering three-course prix fixe menus priced at $55 or $66 per person.
The association launched the program last year to support smaller, independent, and chef-owned establishments during the metro's slow summer season, according to Phoenix New Times and Fabulous Arizona. The format gives operators a structured promotional window without discounting their standard menus outright.
Participating restaurants include Shimagamo, Espiritu, Citizen Public House, Filthy Animal, Indibar, Quiessence at The Farm at South Mountain, George & Gather, and Beginner's Luck, among the 70 venues across the Valley.
For readers who want a ticketed experience above the prix fixe tier, two chef dinner series events are on the calendar: Beckett's Table on August 5 at $79 per person, and Tarbell's on August 6 at $89 per person.
The full participating restaurant list and reservation links are at arizonachefsweek.com. The program runs through August 9.
