ARCADIA. In a neighborhood increasingly known for the quality of its restaurant offerings, La Grande Orange is helping bump up the options. Small and friendly, it limits its menu in order to focus on superb ingredients, and the deliberate formula has elicited great response. Essentially, you can order only a pizza, salad, hamburger, or dessert, but gourmet food combinations and perfect preparation more than compensate for the brevity. Salads feature golden beets, grilled figs, and asparagus while pizzas with thin, crisp, sourdough crusts are loaded with rock shrimp, exotic mushrooms, goat cheese, and herbs. Burgers are sumptuous too. A communal table amid individual ones promotes camaraderie in the small space.

DOWNTOWN PHOENIX. If you show up on a weekend, be prepared to wait for a table at this extremely popular place. The restaurant has a reputation for serving intensely flavorful offerings, and the Santa Fe-style Mexican cuisine is like nothing you've ever had before. If you don't favor spicy dishes, this is not the place for you ­ they don't even offer a mild salsa. Tangy guacamole, huge margaritas, chile-spiked ribs, and hefty portions also prove eminently satisfying.
