St. Amand Kitchen & Cocktails

You'll find a European-themed menu with Arizona and American touches at St. Amand Kitchen & Cocktails, located in the Ocotillo district in south Chandler. The name is a nod to the patron saint of winemaking, beer brewing, and bartending, which creates a kind of self-imposed pressure on the drink program here. Good thing it holds up. House-crafted cocktails, like the Rhubarb Paloma, Peach Caipirinha, and the Vanilla Rosa, make a strong impression. But the food also rises to the occasion, with options like octopus, bright and spicy sea scallops, street tacos, deviled eggs, New Zealand grass-fed lamb meatballs, and a next-level dish of cauliflower mac and cheese. Soft live music often accompanies the food and drink here — and, depending on where you're seated, so might a mural view of the great St. Amand himself.
