Medium Cold Brew Coffee

We stayed at the Omni hotel, and the cold brew was phenomenal, as well as the chicken empanadas.

Came here for a quick coffee as we were staying at the hotel. It's so cute in here. We ordered a white chocolate mocha and it was the perfect flavor, not too sweet and not too strong.

So cute inside this coffee shop! Super friendly staff and excellent service & yummy coffee!

I've come into this cute cafe three times now during my stay at this resort and every experience has been wonderful. Jayden and Joel both have been super nice and the coffee every morning has been fabulous. Being a coffee snob sometimes I'm a little picky on my latte's and my three different espresso drinks have all been enjoyable! They also offer this amazing "Custard Cool Down" Special from 2-4pm half price gelato which my friend & I definitely have done twice now! The guava and coconut are my two favorite flavors so far. The empanadas we had in the morning were super delicious too! Spinach & Feta is so flavorful and the salsa they give you on the side to put on top is amazing!

Coffee and convenience at the Omni Montelucia Very limited choice. Coffee was weak. Cookies looked good (lemon or granola) and some wraps. The gelato looked good and the mustard ginger was tempting. A taste will drive you away. Mango wasn't any better, although it was prettier. This is a resort, so the quarter can of Pringles is 7 dollars, but you know what you will get. There were a bunch of scorpion lollipops and gummy souvenirs. Even some prickly pear licorice. And a wine refrigerator. This is one of those places that are good to have around if needed, but otherwise easily forgotten.

The Montelucia Resort is home to Crave Cafe, and the fact that I was blown away by how beautiful the resort is has nothing to do with how impressed I was with Crave. What are you craving at the moment? Perhaps a cup of coffee? a scoop of gelato? an empanada? gourmet pastry? homemade tomato soup? perhaps a panini sandwich filled with turkey, cheese, grilled eggplant, and cranberry compote? red wine? magazine? fresh fruit? Diet Coke? Whatever your 'crave-ing' - Crave has it all! In addition to pretty much anything your heart desires, Crave also has an extremely friendly staff and offers limited seating (in and outside) with gorgeous views of Camelback mountain. After a full tour of the resort, we were hungry for lunch and decided to have a quick bite at Crave... We shared a sandwich, slice of quiche, and tomato soup - all of it was delicious! I am sure I'll be craving a return trip to the Montelucia sometime soon, and when I do, I'm sure I'll pop into Crave for whatever I need at that time.

I read all of the reviews and saw a lot of people mention the "Breakfast Pyramid," so I ordered one for myself during my stay and it was delicious. It's filled with bacon, egg, sausage, and cheese, and it was an amazing and filling breakfast. I also got the caramel Java Chiller. It was sweet, but still had that coffee taste, so it was perfect for me. The people working there were always extremely friendly. My friend and I went for gelato during their happy hour and I was able to have a sample of the gelato before ordering. Fair pricing too! I definitely plan on going back whenever I have the chance to stay here again.

If you need a quick fix this is the place. Love their green juice and kale salad with chick peas. My boyfriend loves their yogurt with berries, unfortunately they don't have it all the time. It's like first come first served.

Very good gelato although it's a tad pricey. I do wish it was open later because I would have loved to get gelato after dinner.

Lots of milk alternatives, well priced for a resort "store", 10 gelato flavours, unique little gifts and reasonably priced wine for a hotel.

It was another hot day in Arizona and the spritzing machines were out. Back to the food. Everything came out fast and had an explosion of flavors that hit your taste buds. I highly recommend the guacamole and anything that has the green chile on it was fire. They do have a full bar and toms of cocktails and mocktails to choose from also. The service is attentive without being intrusive. Our server made recommendations about the menu and everything was perfect. Overall, Chelsea's Kitchen stands out for its emphasis on quality ingredients and a welcoming atmosphere.

The staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely engaged, which made for a great dining experience. FOOD Deviled Eggs - Great flavor with a bold, well-balanced seasoning. A strong start to the meal. Corn Bread - Really enjoyed this. It had a nice balance of sweet and savory and was moist without being too heavy. Fries - Crispy, well seasoned, and easy to keep reaching for. Swordfish Tacos - I would skip these. The fish didn't taste as fresh as I expected and had a noticeable fishy smell that took away from the dish. Overall, the food was good, but with such a large menu I would probably try different items on a return visit. My favorite part was actually the warm cookie they give you when you leave. It was a really nice touch to end the meal.

I really love the aesthetic of this place. First of all it's tucked on the back corner of a strip mall. You wouldn't know it was care without looking, even though there is a small patio that wraps around. The dining room is kind of a great mixture that stuff it's very industrial working with lots of concrete with open duct work, but it also has a lovely tufted Bank at and crystal chandeliers. The perfect balance and I love it. You can see into the kitchen which I also like. Our server was delightful, and I loved the attentiveness, like making sure to move the curtains when the light was hitting in an odd way. I started with a delicious drink that I think was called Mezcal Orange Fizz. It was yummy! For the first course I chose the Salmon Crudo. It had a citrus dressing and crispy rice chip. It was absolutely delicious, but very tiny. I could have licked the plate because the dressing was so yummy. My friend had the gazpacho, which she said was very good With main course I chose the Garlic-Lemon Scallops and Corn. It was four delicious scallops on polenta garnished with popcorn. What a cool surprise! It was really good! My friend had the short ribs which she seemed to like as well. For dessert, we both chose the key lime tart. It was a little bit of heaven on a plate! I really enjoyed it. The portion sizes were appropriate - - what we probably should be eating rather than the huge portions we normally get. I was able to finish everything, and I left full but not stuffed. I did remove a star because I did not like that they charged a gratuity on a check for just one person. I normally tip a minimum of 25%, but they added 18%. I just left it. I understand the need to include the gratuity with a larger party (somehow the server always seems to get the short end on those larger parties). I don't know if that's a normal thing, or a restaurant week thing because, to be honest, hubby always pays the bill. I do recommend this hidden gem of a place. It has a lot going for it and I've always enjoyed my visits here.
