We could not believe how smooth the creme brulee was. The torched sugar on top provided the shell you're looking for but was so thin and brittle! The best I've ever had. Now on to that kiss of air called pavlova. 1st of all the berries were definitely fresh. Each had the most perfect flavor, like you just picked them yourself. The merengue was so light.... You spoon it in your mouth and it just evaporates. How can it be so light, yet still resist your spoon in a way that deceives you into thinking it will be too sweet, and heavy? No, it's flavored air. Now onto the service. Very welcoming as soon as we entered. Our server couldn't have been better. Delightful to talk to, knowledgeable of the food and it's sources. Such a pleasure. We dine out frequently and this experience was much better than the last Michelin recommendation we visited. Excellent work Element! You are a gem!

Our waiter was on point, knowledgeable and funny. He really added to the experience. The food was excellent. I was surprised with how much I enjoyed the empanadas. I ordered a salad for myself but it was anything but basic. The tuna was divine and the pasta was delicious. Portion sizes are huge so I feel like that justifies the price point. Also, they do a table side pasta service/show where they toss the pasta in the cheese wheel for the cacio e pepe I believe. I got a video of it but can't find it on my phone!

The ribeye was perfectly cooked, but very under-seasoned or not at all. I've never had to add salt to my steak at a restaurant. Asparagus garnish was crunchy and plain. Fries were fresh and crispy. Also tried the chicken tenders (crunchy, juicy, and delicious!) and Scottsdale chicken (juicy, tender, flavorful). Ribs were overcooked.

We were a party of four ladies. We waited in the outer area as the hostess area was full. Once my friend was buzzed on her phone we were quickly seated on the far side of the restaurant in a booth. The decor is looking tired and some of the wall was peeling away. Handrails need painting. Our server was very friendly and chatty. She took our drink/ water request. This seemed to take a while? Then she took our Entree orders but again very chatty and we were all hungry but were polite and waited for her to finish her story! she finally left to put our order in. After a while we got our food. Two Sedona Salads, Tenderloin Steak with sweet potato fries and a Salmon with sweet potato fries. They do give you generous portions of fries. Salmon was good but small. Tenderloin looked good ( don't know how much it was as it said market price on the menu) My friend and I had the Sedona salad but changed the dressing to blue cheese and asked for extra on the side. The chicken didn't looked like a grilled piece of chicken but thick sliced deli meat that was cold.! Now this is the strange part to me. We had only taken a few bites of our meal when the server came back with our checks?? Whats the rush???!! She hoped we had enjoyed our meal and heres your checks..... would you like dessert??? Im still eating my Entree......We all felt extremely rushed as she came back for our payments while we were still eating. It was not a relaxing evening and I wont be returning.

We were here for a birthday dinner, and we could not have asked for better service or food. I've never felt so well taken care of by wait staff. There were 10 of us and there were at least 4 servers who were constantly bringing food, refilling drinks, and even wiping crumbs off the tablecloth. They were gracious to a fault, and by the end of the meal the owner, Rick Erwin himself, stopped by to say hello and ask if we enjoyed the meal. The food was delicious. I had surf and turf and it was the best filet mignon I've ever eaten. Of course they suggested the truffle butter on top, and even though it was an additional $9 I got it. Divine! The bread basket was filled with a variety of amazing rolls. And the crème brûlée was excellent. If you have a special occasion to celebrate I strongly recommend this restaurant. Just be ready to spend at least $75 per person f you're getting cocktails and dessert.

They started us off with a prosecco shot on the house, which was a nice welcome. For starters, the whipped ricotta and goat cheese was a standout. It even won over my daughter, who said, "I've had goat cheese before but this is the first time I've liked it." For my main I had the Garlic Chicken. Creamy, rich, and perfectly done. It hit every note I wanted. The rest of the table worked through the Honey Garlic Shrimp, the Milanese, and the Lemon Basil Pesto, and everyone was happy. For dessert, the Dessert du Jour was a limoncello cake that my daughter absolutely loved, and my other daughter was stuffed but somehow still found room for the Cannoli from the Cannoli hole. Our server Taryn made the whole evening. Attentive, friendly, and on top of everything without ever rushing us. We will absolutely be back. Especially for Lasagna Sunday. 5 stars.

We have our regular order, dozen oysters and the shrimp po boy, so when our server Alex came over, we just asked for those items without looking at the menu. A few moments later, Alex came over apologized and said they just switched to the spring menu and the Po Boy has been swapped out. We were disappointed but didn't think too much of and replaced the Po Boy with more oysters. The GM came over and said the Kitchen Manager heard our situation, had the ingredients to make the sammich and wanted to make it for us. We thanked her but declined their offer. It really wasn't a big deal to us. When Alex brought our oysters, she again asked if we wanted the Po Boy and this time we relented and got the sammich. It was a good decision. It was awesome. The service went above and beyond and that's why we'll keep going back.

And while customers told us happy anniversary, not once did any of the 3 staff serving us say happy anniversary. That about sums it up. They were acting friendly, but not top notch. Definitely, not to the level needed for a place like this. Food and drinks: We had coffee drinks and both were lukewarm to cool. I couldn't even finish my cappuccino because it was not at all hot. For food, I had shrimp and grits and it was pretty good. My wife, chicken cacciatore and the chicken tasted leftover and one piece had a bone. The pasta was lukewarm and tasted reheated. When we told them, they said they would take off that dish, but no apologies. Instead they asked if we wanted dessert because of the entree issue. Assuming they were being nice, we said yes only to find out they charged us for the dessert. You can't make this stuff up. Attention to detail: While the setting is nice, there is a clear lack of attention to detail everywhere you look. Not telling us happy anniversary, not noticing I barely touched my cappuccino, no hand towels in the women's restroom to dry hands, no one at the hotel front desk or the restaurant front desk, doors to the beautiful patio locked so we had to walk around the building outside to get to this space (which is not a welcoming approach), and the manager brought out our dessert and never apologized. And as mentioned previously, the staff is adequate for an average chain, but not for a boutique hotel and restaurant. Overall, very disappointing, and no surprise it was empty. Much better ways to spend this kind of money with the expectation of excellence and receiving mediocre. We will never stay at the hotel now or recommend the restaurant, and it's a shame because it's a beautiful place.
