Dinner
The menu at KAI (meaning “seed” in the O'odham or Pima language) features items from the Native Seed/SEARCH Foundation, a program dedicated to preserving ancient lines of indigenous seeds that would otherwise be extinct. Through this partnership, KAI allows guests to experience components from the Sonoran Desert that have been utilized for thousands of years. In addition, KAI partners with local farmers and purveyors to craft a dining experience that leads our guests through a cultural and gastronomical experience.
