Good to know

When is Sonoran Restaurant Week?

September 4 through 13, 2026 — ten days, including both weekends. Participating restaurants serve their Restaurant Week menu throughout, though a few limit it to certain nights; each restaurant's page says so.

How does it work, and do the menus cost extra?

Each restaurant serves a fixed-price menu at $15, $25, $35, $45 or $55 per person, priced at least 20% below what those courses normally cost. That price is the menu — tax, tip, drinks and anything you order off the regular menu are extra.

Do I need a reservation?

Not officially, but ten days of full rooms says otherwise. Book where a restaurant takes reservations — the Reserve button on its page goes straight to its own booking page. Walk-ins are welcome everywhere else; just ask for the Restaurant Week menu.
