Hungry for some awesome restaurant deals? The Arizona Restaurant Association announced yesterday that they'll be following in the footsteps of Long Island's Restaurant Week sponsors, who recently added a spring event to their annual culinary lineup.

The first-ever Spring Arizona Restaurant Week will take place May 13-22, 2011 at major eateries across town. The roster of participating restaurants is still in the works, but the AZRA offered up The Capital Grille's entrées as a teaser: Choose from 14 oz. Kona-crusted dry-aged sirloin, 8 oz. filet mignon or citrus-glazed salmon. Sounds delish!

It looks like Brazilian steakhouse Fogo de Chao will also be participating, with 10+ skewered meats and a side offered at Restaurant Week prices. Cost for the three-course prix fixe Restaurant Week meals will be $30 or $40, plus tax and gratuity. Some restaurants will also offer wine pairings to complement the meal.
