As far as we—and our taste buds—are concerned, Arizona’s cities certainly deserve to be among culinary capitals like New York City and San Francisco. From south-of-the-border fare and scrumptious steaks to some of the nation’s best ice cream and sushi spots, read on as we introduce you to 50 of our favorite Arizona eateries.

We can admit it: The Valley is caught up in frozen yogurt frenzy. Everywhere you look there is a new frozen yogurt shop popping up, and we definitely are not complaining. Gone are the days of boring chocolate or vanilla. Yogurt shops are shaking it up by offering exotic flavors like lychee tart and pomegranate-raspberry or flavors to satisfy your sweet tooth like birthday cake or cookies and cream. Especially with the weigh-pay-and-go method, you truly have the power of choice in deciding how many topping and much yogurt. Either self-serve or the old-fashioned way, it’s equally delicious and we guarantee that once you start yogurt-ing, you won’t want to stop.

Complete with bakery cases showcasing seven-layer cakes, bright pink lemonade and wicker baskets full of pretty parchment-wrapped sandwiches.

As Valley temperatures creep into the 100’s, these iced coffee drinks step outside the pot and provide delicious respite from summer heat.
