    Nice try.... This had all the making to be a lovely Father's Day brunch but... Not only was it super warm in there they said the air/ electricity had went out. It was 112 degrees today and they had some staff serving stations outside that's just cruel. We were making plates and sweating. Much of the food was sitting and needed to be replaced and also refilled. The omelet station with pancakes was cook to order so that was great. Our seats were good as requested. Some meat options were overcooked such as the ribs. The mimosas were a good touch but honestly we couldn't stay long it was too warm. The thing I did not like was the 20% gratuity added on their own. I am a great tipper but I DO NOT like them choosing for me. I felt this was unnecessary. We should be able to choose how we tip it is based on service... AT LEAST GIVE MY TIP TO THOSE IN THE SUN WORKING FOOD STATIONS…We love fine dining but cost and product should make sense, this didn’t.

    They have the best shrimp enchiladas I have ever had. I love how they are baked in the dish. The sauce isn't spicy, which is perfect for me. We went for lunch so it wasn't crowded at all.

    The entire experience was delightful. We had a lovely Sunday lunch outside on the patio with Dora as our server. She was outstanding. She has been serving at the Camelback Inn for 15 years. My pear salad w/goat cheese was off the charts. The music was an added treat.

    We have been coming to Rita’s for years and had another excellent experience tonight. Our server, Jenn, was exceptional—she was efficient, attentive, and, most importantly, she was very helpful with our group’s allergy concern. The food was delicious as usual. Looking forward to coming back!
