Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Sedona

Priced too high for the quality of the food and menu options. Attempting to be a quaint romantic spot but missing the target. Appetizer special that was offered was baked Brie with brucetta and sides like a charcuterie board but what was received was an entire block of Brie with 4 little slices of bread then pieces of Jared artichoke, pickles and okra with pickled onion and balls of beets. Really missed the target as it was way too much cheese for the items that you would use Brie on and the sides did play well with the dish. Main dish special was steak and lobster which the flavor and presentation was good. We shared the meal but really designed for one so no qualm there but for $99 I would have expected a better dish like a large lobster tail vs a full lobster that I have to fight through to get the meat. Overall seemed like a poorly creative chef designed a sloppy menu.

First time dining at the Cress and won’t be the last time. From our arrival to our departure the experience was amazing. Everyone we came into contact with were 5 stars. Kudos to the staff. Rodin our server was fantastic!!! We could right a book about her. The food was fantastic as well. We will be in Sedona for two more days and we are going to make another reservation at Cress.

The Table at Junipine resort is at least a 10–15 minute drive north of Sedona, and the food was great, but the service was mediocre. To make that drive to this out-of-the-way restaurant, the service needs to be improved. Our party of four received very slow service throughout the evening, and the dessert was even more delayed because the server said the dessert ticket was lost. The service was by Layla and she did not help this restaurant’s cause. The food was excellent quality as the hamburger was described as delicious. Two of us enjoyed the mushroom risotto as it was superb. The scallops were delicious, but the cost was $50, so that was $10 per scallop, which seems excessive. As I said, the food quality was excellent, but it is not worth this drive to have such poor service. I could not recommend this restaurant in good conscience based upon this one meal.
