Epazote Kitchen & CocktailsSouthwest Comfort FoodWe were lucky to visit on a night when the outside temps were perfect and there was a lovely breeze rustling the palm trees...it felt like being in Hawaii. But the food was definitely southwestern...yet not over the top. Familiar dishes were on the menu: short ribs, steak, pork, chicken and shrimp, but the seasonings and sides expressed a regional flair by way of chilies of various types. We enjoyed the relatively economical pinot noir on the menu and appreciated seeing some Arizona wines that were available (we'd like to see more AZ wines). The four of us shared two desserts: one chocolate, the other peach cobbler; to celebrate birthdays. All in all, it was a pleasant, relaxing and easy-going evening. We'll return.5/13/2013 12:00:00 AMGraduationWe stayed here for our daughter's graduation and used it as kind of a "base camp" to dine and relax with our extended family. We had a blast. The margaritas are the best we have ever had and drank quite a few! Thank you for making our special time even better.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMGood Food with Beautiful viewFood and service were very good! We really enjoyed sitting out with the beautiful mountain views!4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMSat outdoors on their beautifulSat outdoors on their beautiful patio and had a truly wonderful meal. there were 4 of us and all got different entrees. Each was excellent. Drink prices were unusually higher than the meal prices. Service was outstanding.4/7/2013 12:00:00 AMService was excellent andService was excellent and the server was great in assisting with selections. the food was a little disappointing, trout was overcooked, peach cobbler soupy. The wedge salad could have been dressed a bit more. The fry bread was tough, crunchy right off however we had asked for it to be plain with the hummus on the side. When we first had it the night before it was delicious with all the toppings.
If staying at the resort I would return as there is an element of creativity.4/7/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had a great experienceWe had a great experience while staying at the Hilton El Conquistador resort. One night we had an appetizer and desert in the bar. The green chilli nachos were fantastic! The 2nd night we dined outdoors on the patio. Fantastic view, great food. We will be coming back3/30/2013 12:00:00 AMThe food was very good duringThe food was very good during our recent visit; I particularly liked the taste of the chili verde stew appetizer, although it was more of a soup in consistency, rather than a stew. The wait staff flawlessly executed some modifications to my main course. The classic margarita cocktail is one of the better basic margaritas in Tucson, IMHO.2/22/2013 12:00:00 AMOne of the best meals we'veOne of the best meals we've had in a long time. Everything was perfection from appetizers through dinner. Although tempting, we didn't try desserts. Tortilla soup was superb. Not a complaint from us. Would recommend and will visit again soon.12/31/2012 12:00:00 AM
