Copper & Sage signatures

Copper & Sage is the newest experience by Westside Concepts and Chef Evon Profitt, the director of Culinary and Beverage Operations for Westside Concepts. The first location opened in Phoenix in November 2023 and has quickly become a popular destination for delicious food and beautiful aesthetic.

Profitt created the concept’s menu with Southern-inspired dishes, such as fried green tomatoes, deviled eggs and blistered shishito peppers, all with an elevated twist. Additional starters include the savory Pickles and Pimento, black-eyed pea hummus and flavorful chicken wings. For entrees, the shrimp and grits provide a rich flavor profile topped with mushrooms and bacon in a sage butter served on cheesy grits. Other standout dishes include the Bayou Mussels, Hot Chicken & Beignets, and the house-made Tagliatelle with Italian sausage and kale in a fresh lemon cream sauce.

Social Design Studio brings new location to life

The new Copper & Sage location, designed by Social Design Studio, will feature a welcoming atmosphere, like the Phoenix location, adorned with dark wood accents, beautiful light fixtures, comfy leather seats and an open kitchen. At 4,500 square feet, the spacious restaurant features a main dining room, large bar and patio for both indoor and outdoor seating. It will be open daily for lunch and dinner and brunch on the weekends.

“Vintage and warm are good words to describe Copper & Sage,” says Joey Lucidi, owner of Westside Concepts. “Whether it’s Tuesday night and you want great bar food or it’s your anniversary and it’s a special night out, this is the place. We’re really excited to be opening in Goodyear at GSQ. It’s more of what we need in the West Valley. I believe GSQ could be one of the coolest places in the entire Valley.”
