The 38 Best Restaurants in Phoenix

"Perched on the edge of a hilltop and attached to the graceful, 90-year-old Wrigley Mansion, Christopher’s is the city’s most dazzling restaurant. Minimalist and modern without being cold, the dramatic dining room offers 180-degree views of the city, an experience upstaged only by James Beard award-winning chef Christopher Gross’s modern French cooking. The prix fixe, eight-course tasting menu (starting at $275 per person) is a two- or three-hour fete of opulent ingredients, filled with surprises in service and presentation. Wine pairings run an additional $230 per person, which is pricy, no doubt, but Christopher’s and Wrigley Mansion share one of the biggest and best wine cellars in the state." - Mcconnell Quinn, Chris Malloy, Nikki Buchanan
