Kembara is the latest project from Chef Angelo Sosa that embraces Asian street food cultures, exemplifying the tradition of cherishing time-honored recipes, while also playfully innovating upon familiar flavors and techniques for fresh takes.

The menu is an homage to Chef Sosa’s travels across Asia, with inspiration drawn from countries including Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Cambodia, China, Singapore and Japan.

Each dish is constructed around Chef Sosa’s concept of a “trinity of flavors”—a balance between sweet, sour and salty elements that culminate in a perfect bite of harmony.

Located inside of the JW Marriott Phoenix Desert Ridge Resort & Spa

All of the food was amazing ! Everyone should try the Beef Rendang, it was delicious and the beef was so tender thay melted in your mouth. Another favorite was the Thai Jewel starter...a unique combination of fruits and raw tuna in cold coconut broth...very light and cleansing

Our service team was a bit slow to start, likely because we pushed our reservation back by 30 mins, but once they got rolling, the service was excellent and they even comp'ed our drinks as an apology for the delay. This is what prompted me to write a review. Kudos to the Service team for turning things around really well. Everything is meant to be shared, which I love and big serving spoons come with the meals as well. Absolutely loved the Chicken Dumplings and the Chicken Satay - delicious! I recommend and will be back if I'm in the area!

We were not really impressed with the food. Pictures on website don’t look like what was served. Too expensive for quality of dishes. The dishes just weren’t memorable. Service was good and ambience was comfortable.

The food was disappointing. It seemed off balance like they had removed the heat without considering adjustments. The green papaya salad was too fish sauce tasting without the chili and the sambal crab was too tamarind tasting (needed the spice to balance). Service was slow from start to finish- waited in line at the hostess stand for 10 min with only three parties in front of us…waited ten minutes from being seated to have a server ask us for a drink order and same after completing the meal.
KembaraGereageerd op 22 februari 2025
Dear Nithya, I deeply regret that your experience did not reflect the high standards we set for both our cuisine and service. The delicate balance of heat, acidity, and depth is fundamental to our dishes, and it is truly disappointing to hear that this harmony was not upheld. Your keen observations are invaluable, and I will personally ensure they are given the attention they deserve. Equally, the lapses in service you encountered are far from the seamless hospitality we strive for, and I sincerely apologize for any frustration they caused. Please know that your feedback is taken to heart and will be addressed with our team to ensure that every guest receives the prompt, attentive, and experience they deserve.
