One last chance to savor a local favorite.

(GMT-07:00)

Desert Island Eatery is moving out of town, but they’re throwing a “Sayonara Day Party” at La Cocina Restaurant and Cantina from 5 – 9 p.m. on Sunday, June 9.

The crew is closing down the Campbell Rd. location and will now focus on opening its new restaurant in Phoenix. As an appreciation for all the support they received since conversations about opening the restaurant first began in 2015.

Keep in mind, Desert Island Eatery will be set up at La Cocina as they dish out food.

Meanwhile, La Cocina will be serving drinks, live music will be brought to you by DJ Selector Spragga, and Atelier Diama Caribbean Style will be hosting a fashion show. This is also a family event, so everyone’s invited to come down and say goodbye.

Entrees are $10 each and that lets you pick one item from each of the menu’s three sections. Each menu item is also individually priced if you’re looking for a smaller bite.
