Marcus’ service was the best - very welcoming, wonderful food recommendations, perfect pace, great smile! He even encouraged us to return so we could try other menu items. Also a shout out to Alex at the Ignite bar. He was also very welcoming and introduced us to a new drink that we loved. Overall exceptional experience - led by two amazing servers. Cheers!

Food was not as good as expected. Steak was ordered medium rare and brought out well done. Didn't even ask if it was done to my liking

Really enjoyed the theme- very creative, whimsical and beautiful. More themed events are encouraged! Dessert table was beautiful. Consider including non-alcoholic beverages and mimosas in the price.

This meal was the only disappointment of our trip. We were seated at 6 and had ordered drinks and our meal by 6:15. We did not receive our food until 7:15. The food itself was the biggest disappointment. The lobster was bland and on the cool side and my husband didn’t eat more than three bites of his filet. He said it was the worst he’s ever had. We’ve only had wonderful food the rest of the stay so this was a huge let down for $400+. Not up to the Ritz standards.

A truly enjoyable dinner. The Sonoran candy was a creative cocktail, well balanced with sweet and spicy flavors. The avocado cactus looked as good as it tasted the tuna was tender and complimented by the ancho tempura. The Ora king salmon was one of the most buttery, tender pieces of salmon that I have ever had the pleasure of enjoying. The wine list is extensive and the sommelier was knowledgeable and quite helpful. Topped off with a trio of sorbet including lime, prickly pear, and mango that melted in your mouth.
