JING Scottsdale has officially stepped into the daytime dining scene, launching weekday lunch service at 11 a.m. and weekend service at noon, expanding its footprint as one of the most dynamic culinary destinations in the Valley. Conveniently located near Old Town Scottsdale, North Scottsdale, and Paradise Valley, the restaurant is positioning itself as a go-to midday stop for guests seeking a refined, energetic dining experience.
The concept pairs a globally inspired menu with a visually striking $11 million interior, defined by rich green and gold tones that set the stage for a polished, modern atmosphere. At the helm is Corporate Executive Chef Thomas Griese, whose culinary background includes training under Thomas Keller, André Rochat, and Michael Mina. His influence is reflected in dishes that balance technique-driven execution.
The offerings span crisp salads, elevated sliders, and a strong focus on sushi, nigiri, and sashimi, reinforcing the signature blend of global and Japanese-inspired cuisine. Among the highlights are Chicken Katsu Bao Sliders featuring crispy chicken with kale, cabbage, cilantro, scallion, and Japanese BBQ, and Steak & Rocket Greens with a 6-ounce prime NY strip paired with Roquefort, cherries, pine nuts, and aged balsamic.
Guests can also explore lighter and more traditional lunch bowls like the Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl with avocado, cucumber, chili vinaigrette, and sushi rice, or heartier options such as Mongolian Steak & Broccoli served with a sweet soy glaze and jasmine rice. Sushi selections remain a focal point, including the Rainbow California Roll featuring bluefin tuna, salmon, and yellowtail.
The expansion into lunch reflects a growing demand for elevated daytime dining experiences in Scottsdale, where design, atmosphere, and culinary detail are increasingly intertwined. With its bold interiors and globally influenced menu, JING Scottsdale’s new lunch service adds another layer to its identity. Learn more at jingrestaurant.com.
