    Food and service was pretty good! BUT, the prices are a bit insane. $18 for house wine? I recognize it's in the Biltmore resort but it wasn't Michelin rated food either! We ordered the wagyu brisket and to be honest it was a bit over salted and dry. The ceviche was super delicious but tiny portion and $33! Not sure we'd be back.

    I expected more for the price. I made reservations a week in advance and yet it somehow glitched and they didn't see my reservation on file, although I had marked anniversary as the reason for the visit, they put us in a corner near the traffic area of inside/outside and register. Service was good, no complaints there. The food was so lackluster. The octopus was so small and didn't have anything special about it. The $70 brisket was 5-6 slices of brisket and while it was good, it was so salty it was difficult to eat. The desserts were pretty good, probably my favorite part of the meal. For a $255 dinner for two, I feel like it left a lot to be desired

    The Wagyu beef brisket was AMAZING. The service: excellent, knowing the deep history of the Biltmore and the restaurant. The polenta: excellent. Nice quiet restaurant tucked into the corner of an amazing hotel. The Waygu is worth every penny (and it cost a lot of no-longer-accepted Pennie's). Having tasted wagyu prepared in many places, this place tops them all. OMG. Come try it and then reply to me. I dare you to disagree. Wow.

    We stayed at the Arizona Biltmore for my birthday trip and came here at one point during the trip (it's within the hotel) for a bit upper scale dining! Beautiful decor, lush and dim lighting, it's a vibe! I ordered the octopus as my appetizer and the chicken option for dinner and both were delicious. I knocked off one star because the cocktails are strong as hell lols if you prefer strong drinks then no problem but for me I like a combo of bitter and sweet and I feel like a good balance between the two couldn't be figured out so I just went with water at one point for the rest of my dinner lols.

    For our 3 course meal at Renatta I had the: First course Ceviche- I found the juxtaposition of the traditional sourness of ceviche and smokiness that is more akin to a curry spice from pimenton oil to be interesting and paired well together Second course-Octopus: the octopus was cooked well and had a snappiness when you bite into it and the light tomatoe soup was a nice subtle compliment to the dish. Third course: Wagyu Brisket does taste like a Texas brisket style, very tender and pulled apart easily. The waitress alerted me that this was their specialty, and although the quality was good, my friends and I found that it was a bit too salty and dry. Using minimal ingredients to allow a quality meat to shine on its own is great but I think the flavor could be enhanced. The interior reminded me of a dining hall. service and attention from staff was noted; adding to the experience positively. Their Smokey chips appetizer were also delicious Overall, I would recommend Renata's.

    The vibe here is amazing and the patio seating is worth it! I also appreciate the service, we were in a quiet corner but still were well taken care of. We had the mole enchiladas and sea bass & crab ceviche which was so flavorful and then the panna cotta and cheesecake for dessert. I loved that the panna cotta was topped with meringue and croutons it added such a nice texture difference to the panna cotta. This was a nice place for a special occasion!

    Renata's food lives on in my memories. The brisket was incredibly tender served with homemade corn and flour tortillas and three crafted salsas. The fried rice was so delicious that I ordered it twice during my 3 night stay. It's garlicky and packed with fresh ginger.

    Great food and great staff! Our server was amazing and accommodated my allergy! I loved mezcal margarita and made my boyfriend and I's 4 year anniversary amazing! I will return!! The tomahawk is to die for and everything was delicious!

    Renata's Hearth at the Arizona Biltmore is a stunning space with a warm ambiance and beautifully presented food, but unfortunately, it falls into the category of overpriced rather than just expensive. We visited for dinner but, after reviewing the menu, decided to stick with just a couple of appetizers and dine elsewhere. The prices were shockingly high--even for a high-end resort--and didn't seem justified based on the offerings. That said, the dishes we tried were flavorful and artfully plated, as seen in the photos. The ceviche was bright and refreshing, and the crab dish had a lovely balance of textures, but neither felt like they warranted the price tag. The setting is lovely, with a cozy, upscale feel fitting for the Biltmore. Service was professional and friendly, but for the cost, we expected a more memorable dining experience. While I wouldn't write it off entirely, I'd only recommend it if price isn't a concern, or if you're just stopping in for a drink and a light bite. Otherwise, Phoenix has plenty of incredible dining options at much better value.

    It's alright. Located in the Arizona Biltmore. It looks great and has a nice atmosphere. Service was on point and attentive. We went with our waiter's suggestions as far as food. First off, I got the El Matador drink. Was not my thing. A little too tart and sweet for me. We got the guac app (good), the tetelas (blah), and the ceviche (very good). Ordered the brisket as the main course. Just ok. Seemed like everything aside from the ceviche needed more seasoning. The salsas were bland. Pricing was resort level.

    Our first visit, but not our last. Great service, nice atmosphere, delicious and inventive drinks, and the food was lovely (great flavors).

The weather was perfect and we were seated in the beautiful patio where we can hear the music and see the live flamenco dancers. Then..... it all went downhill from there! We were ignored by multiple servers for more than 20 minutes to the point where I had to walk up to the host desk to ask for a service. Once we were assigned a server, the service was rushed and hurried. Very transactional and not welcoming at all. The food was mediocre. The octopus was tough and rubbery. The peace and quiet of our patio table was quickly destroyed by a large bachelorette party that was seated right next to us. We had Amazing experiences (yes, multiple) at this place in the past and I wanted to be fair to the restaurant so I sent them a message via Open Table to let them know how disappointed we were. They never responded! Unfortunately, this restaurant has become another Scottsdale tourist trap. All hype and no substance.

Complimentary valet service greeted us warmly upon arrival as gentlemen opened doors and welcomed us with genuine smiles. Chivalry is alive and well here! The host remembered it was our anniversary and moments later, a complimentary champagne toast arrived! Followed by the most incredible chawanmushi, personally presented by one of the chefs. The porterhouse was out of this world, perfectly sized for two and the Troon Margarita was a revelation. Unlike spots where the views outshine service or food, Talavera delivers on every front.

By the time we finished dinner, we were sipping drinks and dessert in that perfect desert dusk moment -- honestly one of the best parts of the experience. The atmosphere felt like a blend of date-night elegance and relaxed family dinners. Some couples were clearly celebrating anniversaries or special occasions while other tables were more casual, which made the space feel welcoming rather than overly formal. Service was attentive and thoughtful throughout the evening. The staff were especially great about checking on allergies, and my hot water pot was constantly refilled before I even had to ask. Food-wise, we tried a mix of tapas and mains. Everything we had was well prepared and flavorful. That said, the price-to-value ratio for some of the entrées didn't fully land for me. The upside? The portions were generous for a fine-dining restaurant. If you're someone who appreciates larger portions at upscale spots, this will definitely work in your favor!!! Hot water rating: 8/10. While refills were constant (amazing), the pot had a few lingering tea leaves in it -- I'm guessing from earlier afternoon tea service. Would I return? Absolutely. Next time I'll likely lean into the tapas and drinks while soaking in the sunset views. And yes... I'll happily give the hot water another try.

Flavors…read morewere all on point and as expected from the components on the menu, which doesn't happen often in Phoenix. The Papas Verde had an addicting tang from the tomatillo salsa but were brilliantly balanced out by the chorizo and asadero cheese. The shaved brussel salad could have used a little more date and chile to balance out the vinegar but I was pleased either way. The elote was probably the only thing that fell short execution-wise as I didn't get much of the chorizo flavor, but the cook on the corn itself was perfect. The Gambas al Ajillo are absolutely a must-get. Juicy, sweet shrimp with an unexpected kick from the butter sauce and unsurprisingly great bread from Noble. The Tlayuda was a little heavy on the lettuce, but the smoked pork and bean puree combo were so flavorful that it helped balance out the richness with texture and freshness. I also loved the crispy contrast from the fried tortilla. We ended with the Concha and Mango Sticky Rice ice cream which sounded pretty simple but was quite impressive in its own right. The ice cream was a touch too frozen, but it ended up working out well with the crunchy cornflake coating and lightly warmed, pillowy concha to make a really satisfying ending to our meal. Service was excellent and the patio was well-lit and had heaters ready for colder weather. Vecina is on the pricier side for sure, but you will not be disappointed.
