The Janos Philosophy

The soul of our menu is French-inspired southwestern cuisine using produce grown by a network of gardeners throughout Southern Arizona as the basis for a constantly changing menu. Much of the fresh seafood and shrimp come from the Sea of Cortez with other items flown in from around the globe. Veal, pork, lamb, beef and game are treated with innovative preparations that emphasize the nuance and subtlety of French technique and the dynamic flavors of chilies, corn and herbs from the region. While the southwest is our home and the point of departure for much of our cooking we are also inspired by diverse influences from around the world. You will find an eclectic selection of menu items from Asia, the Mediterranean and elsewhere all prepared with our unique personality which emphasizes substance and great flavor over style to create wonderfully original dishes that are as visually compelling as they are delicious.

Since opening in 1983 we have created literally thousands of dishes for our evolving menus. The menu items that are featured here are a sampling of the food we serve. Be assured that if the dishes you see here are not offered the night you come in for dinner it is because we have made something else we think you'll like just as much or better.
