Fry Bread House, located in Phoenix, was started in 1992 by Cecelia Miller of the Tohono O'odham Nation. Her son, Michael Perry, manages the restaurant known for its delectable chewy and flaky fry bread topped with a variety of flavorful ingredients such as chorizo, chilies, and, in its dessert version, butter and chocolate.
In addition to El Chorro Lodge in Paradise Valley, Fry Bread House is only the second Valley restaurant to receive the award since it became a category in 1998.
