Very well designed outdoor space for brunch with excellent shade (umbrellas) along with the right amount of sunlight to enjoy the Arizona outdoors even on warm sunny afternoons.
Stellar service staff, attentive with drink orders and water refills. Surprised by the quantity and quality of the “sticky buns” (offered gratis!) – irresistible!
Eggs Benedict all around, even though other menu choices looked really good). Just the perfect amount of very well made Hollandaise Sauce, slightly runny yolk, and crunchy-crisp potatoes: perfection! (The benefits were served with some greens as well, which is unusual for most places which might at best add an ounce of fruit, so that was an extra delight!)

Server regaled us with a brief history of the place, just the right amount!

Absolutely on the repeat list to try other menu items. Be aware that open for brunch only on Sundays!!

Not the first visit but really enjoyed December on the patio for brunch with perfect weather and extremely attentive staff from the hostess to server and manager who helped with umbrella and fire heaters. Food was prompt and excellent in presentation and taste. Eggs Benedict perfect. Waldorf salad nice. Will be back

Came for Christmas dinner. Price fix menu. Lobster Bisque, Filet Mignon, Rack of Lamb and desserts were all exceptional. Our server (Joe) was professional and knowledgeable; at the same time friendly and helpful. Outstanding. Possibly the most beautiful restaurant and grounds in Arizona.

Rarely do I say that nothing could be done better.

The service was great. Our server introduced the menu to us very thoroughly and was extremely knowledgeable.

The food was impeccable. Do yourself a favor and get the tomahawk steak.

The dessert choices left nothing to be desired.

The atmosphere was fantastic! We sat outside and it was absolutely perfect.

Always the cutest spot for breakfast imo. The monkey bread wasn’t as magical as I once remembered but likely because I didn’t order a full pan so the only piece was one that comes in the basket. However the hash (last photo) and the green chile stew (1st photo) was also really good.

We had fun visiting my late grandma’s favorite place (one of them). The experience delivered – the avocado bruschetta could be a meal, & it’s so delish. We shared this and the Black Sea bass special…wow!

The outdoor dining experience is supreme with the elegant ambiance.

Don’t expect Mexican fusion here, instead look for classic American fare. Cocktails are excellent and wine selection is broad. Waiter and servers are very attentive. Outside dining when the sun sets is pleasant. As for my meal, juicy pork chop but could have used more polenta vs squash. Sticky buns vs bread is a nice touch. Deviled eggs were good but not memorable. Wedge salad was excellent, very tangy homemade blue cheese dressing. Though pricey, portions are well sized.

CertAn absolutely amazing dining experience! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff was incredibly friendly and well-organized. The food quality was outstanding—everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The desserts were a delightful treat, and the drinks complemented the meal perfectly. Every bite was a testament to the attention to detail and passion that goes into their menu. It’s rare to find a place that excels in both service and quality, but this restaurant truly delivers. One of the best experiences I’ve ever had, and I can’t wait to return!
