The Senae Thai Bistro Story

••• The Restaurant •••

“Beautifully transformed, the site, now known as the “John Wesley Miller Building”, was built in 1946 as the home of the McLellan five-and-dime store. Senae features a state-of-the-art kitchen and a dining area that is decorated with natural wood, a “living wall”, and an upstairs mezzanine that seats up to 16 guests in a more “private” setting. Not to be missed is the stunningly lit bar with a magnificent quartz bar top and decorated stainless fascia.

••• Environmental Sustainability •••

Influenced by her husband Jim who is a Professor of Environment at The University of Arizona, Chef Dee is dedicated to locally sourcing her restaurant to the extent possible. She has forged a partnership with the University of Arizona Community and School Garden Program to grow many of the herbs and vegetables you will find in her cuisine. She has also incorporated numerous energy and water conservation, and waste-reduction measures in her design and operations.
