Kuza opens in north Scottsdale Sept. 16 with a robata grill

Kuza opens Sept. 16, 2026 in north Scottsdale, built around an open robata grill and a raw bar. It is the third Valley concept from Clive Collective, alongside The Americano and Tell Your Friends, with Executive Chef Erik Davila leading the kitchen. The menu leans on charcoal-grilled meats and seafood, sushi and raw preparations, including a Chicken Negima glazed and rotated repeatedly over charcoal, and the restaurant says its fish arrives twice weekly from Tokyo's Toyosu Market. Hours are Wednesday through Sunday, 5 to 11 p.m.
