About

In 2018, when Pa’La opened on 24th Street, Phoenix New Times named it the “Best New Restaurant” of that year. A downtown branch, where we are having our event, opened in 2021, and Resy and Thrillist both promptly placed it on their Lists of “Best Restaurants in Phoenix." What’s more, Pa’La was a Finalist for “Exceptional Culinary Experience” at the 2024 Foodist Awards. Hats off to Co-Owner/Executive Chef Jason Alford, who spent a decade helming ROKA AKOR, a contemporary Japanese steakhouse with multiple outposts. At Pa’La, he draws on Mediterranean, South American, and Japanese culinary traditions to turn out a splendid array of tapas and small plates, such as bone marrow with caramelized onions and squid ink milk bread, woodfired octopus with artichokes, beans, and smoked sweet pepper, miso black cod, mussels with Iberico chorizo, and Kurobuta pork belly with sour plum BBQ and pickled root vegetables. Enticing desserts too like mascarpone cheesecake with yuzu curd and banana-maple-date cake. “This downtown charmer ventures into excitingly global territory,” says Phoenix Magazine, citing its “edgy art installations and head-spinning, classics-gone-wild menu.”
