    Chicken with side of street corn and coleslaw
    Jennifer D.

    This was the Merkin restaurant before the new location and name was changed to the Four Eight Chicken. Came here in July 4th and place was pretty quiet. Seated and ordered quickly, server was nice. My friend and I broke ordered the chicken with 2 sides. The chicken has a little bit of a bite to it. They also give you a free sample of mead upon request which was good.

    This place was recommended by a coworker who's made several Cottonwood visits. We said we were taking a day trip so obviously couldn't drink too much, and this was the perfect suggestion. My husband and I shared the full flight and ordered the tot waffle and the goat cheese and tomato jam bruschetta. It was a lovely light lunch and a great selection of wines. Surprisingly, our favorite was the sparkling mead made with Arizona wildflower honey. Despite cans being a little pricey, we *had* to take some home. My other favorites were the red blend of multiple grape varietals (the Legion) and the sparkling white. The staff was knowledgeable about their options, and the place itself was cute. I liked how I never felt rushed through the experience. There's so much to try in this area, but I'd come back here again easily.

    Be sure to check out the ceiling and art detail on the walls. When an owner thinks about every detail then you're certain to have a great experience. Try Lindy's Twaffle (your taste buds will thank you). The popcorn with truffle salt (OMG) -great experience. Yes, the wine is wonderful too. This is a must "stop" location in Old Town Cottonwood!

    Charcuterie Board and Twaffles!

    Had a great time at Four Eight with my dad and his girlfriend. Pleasantly surprised that their wine pours are 2 ounces each, where is the standard is 1oz. Interesting Wines, some sparkling. Bought some of that very unique honey mead, along with a couple of others. That Twaffle thing was pretty freaking great. What a new idea! And both chutneys that were on top were stellar. Charcuterie board was also pretty tasty, and next time I will definitely ask for some of that onion chutney and tomato jam from the Twaffles to be on the board.

    Fun!

    What a treat in what used to be Cottonwood city offices and prior to that a jail, a bank, you name it. Just an FYI that the signage isn't great yet so park near Colt and you'll be in good shape. That, however, is the only thing that isn't great. The staff was very knowledgeable, and clearly loves his product and his work. I'm sorry I didn't catch his name. Good solid, basic winebar decor, and the most outstanding ceiling ever...it does Arizona proud.

    Another great addition to the growing number of wine bars on Main Street in Cottonwood. Serving up local wines from Puscifer and Four Eight, utilizing Arizona grapes, stop in here to imbibe on Arizona's best. This newly opened tasting room, right in the heart of Old Town, has a fun, upbeat vibe, replete with cool artwork and good tunes to make for a fun afternoon or evening of wine tasting. The food menu consists of some imaginative charcuterie boards, bruschetta, twaffles (YES! TWAFFLES!), and gourmet popcorn. Do yourself a favor and stop in when you're in Cottonwood....and check out the ceiling...pretty damn cool.

    Of the Cottonwood wine tasting rooms, this had some of my favorite wines (maybe of all the Sedona weekend tastings) and the staff were super friendly and accommodating. We split the largest flight between the two of us and it was perfect. Fun vibes, great food. Loved the Twaffles!

    We came on a rainy Saturday night with no reservation. It was surprisingly busy inside, we asked…read morefor the wait and the hostess said about 45 min. We decided not to stay so we left. We ended coming back about 10 min later because there wasn't too many food options around the area. The same hostess asked if a table was ok and we said yes so we ended up getting seated immediately. We were a little confused We ordered a few things, Garden salad - the portion was big but the vinaigrette dressing didn't taste like anything. I wish we got a different salad since it just tasted like plain wet salad (4/10) Pesto Pizza - very good pesto flavor and I really enjoyed their pizza dough. I wish we added some type of meat ontop because it felt like it was missing something. I'd probably get it again and ask to do that (6.5/10) or a (8/10) when I added the chicken Chicken piccata - this dish was good, chicken was a little dry. It came with polenta that was very flavorful. I was using this chicken to eat with the pizza and salad. (7/10)

    Merkin Vineyards and Tasting Room is hands down one of the best wine and dining experiences I've…read moreexperienced in Arizona! From the moment you arrive, everything feels thoughtfully curated. Starting with the charming tram/trolley that takes you up to the restaurant, offering a fun and scenic alternative to climbing stairs. We started with a wine flight, and I have to say--the white wine options were outstanding! Crisp, refreshing, and beautifully balanced. Each one had its own character, and the staff, super knowledgeable and happy to walk us through the flavors and pairings. If you're a white wine lover, this spot is a must. The food was equally memorable. Hubs ordered the muffuletta sandwich which included layers of flavor with high-quality ingredients on a lofty rosemary focaccia bread- delish! I ordered the house salad & added organic chicken. This salad was fresh, hearty, and full of vibrant farm-to-table goodness. You can absolutely taste the difference. We enjoyed sitting outside with beautiful Arizona weather on the patio. This spot is perfect for sipping wine and soaking in the views. Merkin also offers canned wines to-go and a fun selection of merch, which makes it easy to take a little piece of Merkin home with you. Whether you're a wine connoisseur or just looking for a relaxing day with great food and drink, Merkin Vineyards is a gem. Personally, I can't wait to return!

    My friend and I dined here. She has been coming for years…read more I was so pleased with everything. The pleasure of sitting at the table with views of the water & trees, the excellent service, and most of all the food. She ordered the hamburger that was anything but a plain hamburger. It had so many components and the meat was so good. My duck was impressive. It was cooked to perfection, and the classic cherry topping took it over the top. The presentation was wonderful and served over the duck crisp. I am bringing my husband next time as he will not be able to resist the elk offering.

    Well again I'll preface I rarely give five stars, because there is always room for improvement, but…read moretoday was a 5! I've been in Cornville for 4-1/2 years and came here for the first time about a year ago. My review was based off the entire party. This time it's just me. I came for the olive medley app which is an amazing concoction of imported olives, sundried tomato, artichoke hearts, fresh herbs and lovely mild goat cheese. It's served warm with buttered and toasted baguettes and the entire app is absolutely sublime. Learned today it develops from a recipe in California! Tastes like it! I also had the rigatoni with spicy Italian sausage. Large portion (half is dinner later) with toasted bread and fresh Parmesan. The marinara is hit with fennel and tomato bits, so much flavor and the sausage has just the right spice. The sur andes Malbec was the perfect wine. They have a very impressive and extensive wine list, great price points. The restaurant is set above Oak Creek, hence Up the Creek. Ample windows provide bird watchers beautiful views of Cornville natural wildlife. Prices are better than Sedona and this place, while off the beaten path, is every bit Sedona-worthy! Another little hidden gem I'm grateful to live close to.

    It was an interesting venue, quite unexpected…read more There were a lot of people there, lots of clowns. The staff was nice and accommodating too.

    We were staying in Cottonwood and decided to try Queen B Vinyl Cafe for lunch before heading home…read more I've really been wanting to try them for a while now since I knew they have ramen on their menu, and I LOVE ramen! I ordered their Shoyu ramen, which, per their menu, is a... rich soy chicken broth that comes with pork belly chashu, local mushrooms, bok choy, bamboo shoots, spring onion, and a soft-boiled egg. I chose not to have the pork belly chashu and asked them to add an extra egg. As soon as it came out, it looked really good, but unfortunately, it had zero flavor! I even added some spicy chili oil, and it didn't help the flavor at all. IMO - Ramen stock should be so rich and so full of flavor that it becomes the star of the dish, but unfortunately, this ramen really fell short. Our server was great when I let her know and offered to bring me something else, which I appreciated, but honestly, I really didn't want to try anything else at that point. However, my husband's dish was pretty tasty. He ordered the Four Eight spicy chicken sandwich, which is served on a fresh biscuit, with a spicy honey drizzle and a side of fries! The sandwich was good, and the fries were seasoned well. We both liked it. The whole concept of the restaurant is great; one side is a café, and one side is the vinyl shop. They even have a barber on site. Overall, it was a nice visit, just disappointing. Not sure if we will be back.

We ordered 3 pasta dishes and a veal dish. They were all yummy. It was an older crowd, and be prepared for the ridiculous high back chairs. Desserts were very good!

    Unfortunately, our experience at Bella Vita was disappointing from start to finish…read more When we were seated, two of the seats were damp. One of the staff members was very pleasant and apologetic, which we appreciated, but the service issues continued throughout the meal. My cousin ordered coffee, and our waitress responded, "I guess I can make a pot of coffee." I ordered a latte, but she later returned and said the machine was broken. Our dinners came with bread and herb olive oil. This was delicious and fresh baked focaccia. When the basket arrived, each of us received ONE 1-inch by 1-inch piece of bread with tons of herb olive oil. After we finished the bread, the waitress immediately removed the basket and remaining olive oil without asking if we would like more. It felt very strange and left us wondering whether the restaurant actually tosses out that much olive oil or if it would simply be served to another table. I would hope it's tossed but it's very wasteful. Dinner was average - not over the top delicious. The one bright spot was the friendly staff member who apologized for some of these issues. Unfortunately, the overall experience felt awkward and inhospitable, and the service did not meet our expectations.
