Chelsea's Kitchen offers a break from the many burger, Tex-Mex, and typical American food places that sometimes describe Phoenix's dining culture. Innovations using new ingredients and flavors create specials, such as the Del Mar Salad, Fillet Mignon or the Grilled Swordfish Tacos. The wine list here complements the food as well as the seasons, with the selection focusing on wineries around the state. Enhancing the stylish diner's beauty is the tasteful decor and charming patio with palo-verde trees where, on weekends, one can enjoy drinking bottomless mimosas during brunch hours.
