| - If you care about quality food, unique flavor pairings, sharing a bite or two between your fellow diners then Okra is for you! If you're looking for a plate full of slopped pulled pork or some brisket hidden under a sauce and sides to feed an army you may want to pass on the artistry being created by Chef Cullen. Our server Michelle was amazing! Not only did she know the menu in and out but she really had a passion for what was on there! It's always refreshing to see a servers eyes light up when describing a dish, and actually be invested in what she was talking about! I highly recommend asking for Michelle, you will not be disappointed!
Now to the food! These will not be big giant feed your face plates, you are going to get a serving of some real passion and love of flavors, a southern background mixed with some Italian flair. It may sound daunting but please please try it and see for yourself how great a combination these two can be!
Stacked salad to start, of course not a tradition Caesar but the flavors are robust and delicious and the corn bread croutons will make you never look at a normal crouton the same!
Verde focaccia to share, excellent use of goat cheese, you get a good flavor but not over powering mixed with the pesto was on point! Crust was cooked perfectly nice and crispy but wasn't over done.
Pimento burger to my self! I have to say I've had this burger numerous times I can't seem to get enough of this. Excellent flavors; the homeboys comeback sauce, the pickles, pimento cheese all mixed in to each delicious bite after bite. I would definitely recommend this to be one of the best burgers in the valley and would put it up against any others you might hold near and dear to your heart.
Overall you can tell the creators have a pure joy of food making this a very special spot in Phoenix, please go and try it! Be open minded don't get stuck thinking you can only have one plate a certain way liven up your tastebuds!
