One glance at the menu and guests know they're not in Arizona anymore. For soups, there's a hearty tomato lentil or the more exotic cumin cinnamon carrot. Shrimp cakes with roasted eggplant and mushroom are excellent appetizers for sharing or a lighter meal choice; entrees include rosemary pomegranate chicken and apricot salmon. But less adventurous diners shouldn't fret. The menu also features Angus beef burgers, salads and kisra, the Middle Eastern version of pizza. The merging of exotic flavor with American style also extends to the decor. Fez is heavy with earth tones, complimented by a vibrant splash of Moroccan orange on the tables. Everything is sleek and modern, with a backlit bar and contemporary lighting fixtures. Drink specials include a daily happy hour, half-off all bottles of wine on Sundays and 2-for-1 wine cocktails on Monday nights.
