9 Phoenix Restaurants Serving Splurge-Worthy Meals
"Admittedly, Roka Akor is a corporate restaurant with multiple locations, but don’t dismiss this sleek, trendy Japanese spot as some middle-of-the-road chain because it’s anything but ordinary. The sushi bar, which overlooks the exhibition kitchen, offers the best seats in the house, allowing diners to take in all the action. Diners can watch the kitchen’s robatayaki (a Japanese charcoal grill) issuing forth all manner of beef cuts, including certified Tajima Kobe beef and A5 Miyazaki wagyu, the latter served with a trio of expensive sea salts. Here too, sushi chefs compose sashimi and sushi plates that resemble works of art. It’s a great way to figure out what to order. Executive chef Tyson Tellez sources local vegetables and chicken while shipping in premium fish from around the world. For customers who want to celebrate with some bubbly, there’s Dom Perignon brut Champagne priced for $480." - Nikki Buchanan
