Kai - Phoenix

We love the Kai, and have never had a bad experience. This was our first visit since the pandemic, as the switch to prix fixe put it out of our price range initially (we used to go and split dishes, maybe getting two appetizers one entree, or similar But now we're a nurse and a teacher instead of both teachers, so we splurged and went for our anniversary. Truly a fantastic and delicious experience. Every course was exceptional—we tried the squash and mushrooms to start. Both were amazing dishes with a flavor profile I've never had in similar dishes (and we love mushrooms and squash. We've had so many squash soups over the years, but none like this . The mushrooms was the size one expects for a five course menu, but the squash was huge! Bring someone v hungry with you to finish it. Then we got the squab and the foie gras. Again, each dish was exceptional with every thing placed on each dish contributing to wonderful flavor profiles. The toasted oats texture was also such a good combination with the foie gras! Again, the squab was about the size you'd expect for a prix fixe but the foie gras was HUGE. Someone needs to be VERY hungry to finish this one (I did manage it though ; . It looks like I can't fit much more here, so I'll just say that it continued exceptionally (and we particularly recommend the bison for the next course

This was hands down THE BEST meal and dining experience of my LIFE. I've been wanting to come to Kai for years and it was SO worth the wait. Jeremy and crew were so welcoming and informative, the service was impeccable and the food was like nothing I've ever seen or had before. Everyone and everything moved like a well-oiled machine and it was a pleasure to watch. If I had the means, I'd eat here every day. 1000/10 will be telling everyone I know and looking forward to my next visit!

Amazing experience. It took about 2.5 hrs for the total experience. Food was amazing, unique with a very different indigenous Arizona infusion. They accommodated allergies really well.

Absolutely wonderful experience for a special celebration of any kind. Every detail was impeccable and we felt so well cared for by everyone we encountered. Chef called me days before as I have allergies and food was so beautiful and delicious. Each course was a new adventure and exploration. The water bottles and gift in our car to go home with was so comforting and memorable. Can't wait to go back.

Outstanding experience. The bison entrée, the Rising Sun cocktail, and the corn dessert, individually, are worth it alone. Excellent. Superb service. Beautiful ambiance. A wonderful evening, albeit a pricey one at that.
