About the restaurant

We believe a dinner over amazing food should be an experience that brings people together. The desire to produce lifelong memories over a meal comprised of locally sourced (when possible) seasonal ingredients coupled with an internationally recognized wine program rarely seen in the US - excites us. These delectable dishes that are meant to be shared with family and friends is the conduit for building fond memories. We long for our guests to feel welcomed and relaxed with a casual-elegance that shines long after the last forkful and interesting sips.

Amazing service! We were a bit late due playing at the tables too long but they were very accommodating and understanding. The service was beyond excellent, the food is probably the best you're going to get in northern Arizona, and they have a great selection of wines. Wish we could have tried the dessert or more sides but it's a lot of food and definitely great value.
