We planned to visit Wren House Brewing and wanted to bring some food along. We came across Pa' La and are so glad we discovered it! My husband ordered a sausage sandwich and I had their vegetarian sandwich with fennel. So delicious!

Great spot where you can eat healthy but I wish the lighting was a little more romantic lighting was very harsh it would be great to have soft lighting indoors... read more Great spot where you can eat healthy but I wish the lighting was a little more romantic lighting was very harsh it would be great to have soft lighting indoors to make this more of a date night spot

My husband proclaimed at the end of dinner that he liked this place more than Chez Panisse! Now, look, he 's wrong, Chez Panisse is Chez Panisse.

All that said, the parallels are clear. It 's best experienced through its prix fixe menu, the food is primarily local, and cooked over wood fire (there 's no other form of cooking at pa 'la). The space is cool, the waiter friendly (love you Randy) and the food is near perfect. They served us Japanese eggplants so good I could 've cried. I 'll confess, the fish course was too salty for my tastes, but not so salty that I 'm not looking to return. For this long term sub, Pa 'la has become my new favorite special occasion restaurant a Chez Panisse that Arizona educators can afford!
