Downtown Phoenix is getting a fresh dining lineup with the arrival of Denū Hotel & Spa, which Phoenix New Times says is set to open on Sept. 16 at Adams Street and Central Avenue. The 236-room hotel will bring four eateries with it, giving locals and visitors a few more reasons to linger in the neighborhood.
One of the headline spots is Sartén Kitchen & Bar, a signature live-fire restaurant inspired by Sonoran and Southwestern cuisine, according to Phoenix New Times. The hotel is also planning a rooftop pool and a Hammam-inspired spa experience, so this looks like more than just a place to grab a meal.
For Valley readers, the big takeaway is simple: a new upscale hotel is adding another layer to downtown’s food scene, and it’s doing it with a mix of coffee, cocktails, pastries, and steak in the mix, per the New Times report.
