Quiessence is a fine dining, true farm to table restaurant located at The Farm at South Mountain, a 10 acre oasis by South Mountain. We have a 2 acre organic garden onsite that we utilize as much as possible for our dishes. Our menu changes regularly based on local and seasonal availability. We offer tasting menus with the option of doing 3, 4 or 5 courses. The restaurant itself is housed in the original farmhouse of the property giving the restaurant plenty of rustic charm. Patio dining is also highly sought after when the weather is nice.

    So we simply don’t have enough adjectives in the English language to describe our evening. This was an unexpected find as we stayed nearby. Now we are mad at ourselves because we never knew we were near this type of EXPERIENCE! For the deepest level of foodie, it is simply culinary genius. Dustin’s understanding of textures, flavor profiles and exceptional components of fine ingredients made for one of the best dining experiences we have had in years. He has placed himself in the mix of Patrick O’Connell (@The Inn at Little Washington) and rivals Thomas Keller IMO. We even got a private tour of the beautiful new kitchen and chatted with Dustin-Outstanding young chef. 5 courses proved to be just perfect and Jamel (the mixologist) is just a vibe by himself concocting art behind the bar. Paired the 5 courses with a Willamette Valley Pinot for the win. We are fans. To say the least. Thank you Julia, our amazing waitress, for a lovely and well presented menu and exceptional evening. @Quiessence @DustinChristofolo❤️

    The service left much to be desired. From the moment we were seated, it was evident that our experience would be far from exceptional. After asking for our server so we could order, it took nearly 30 minutes to receive our drinks. Our first two courses came shortly after, no problem. Our main entrees were a whole other story. Nearly 50 minutes elapsed before our main courses were presented to us. We sat down at 6:55 and did not receive our entree until 8:45pm What was particularly disappointing was the timing of the tasting menu. It felt disjointed and poorly coordinated, leaving us wondering if the kitchen and service staff were in sync at all. For an establishment that charges a premium for its offerings, the pacing and precision of a tasting menu should have been impeccable. In summary, our experience at this restaurant was marred by the agonizing waits, the disjointed timing of the tasting menu, and the overall lackluster service. Considering the significant amount of money we paid for the meal, we expected a higher level of service and a commensurate quality of food. Regrettably, our visit left us with a sense of disappointment and the feeling that our dining experience fell far short of our expectations.

    A wonderful experience..friendly,attentive staff from the moment we arrived .. A lovely choice of wines and cocktails, the menu offered the choice of 3,4 or 5 course meals with unique recipes of fresh foods from their farm..everything we ate was delicious…they offer gluten free, too…yes, a little pricey, but the whole experience was worth the splurge on our 50th anniversary…

    It took a very long time between courses. The 'experience' was waiting, which we could have done anywhere and not ended up with a bill over $300. The food was barely average and they were not accommodating to my pregnant wife's dietary restrictions, and even meat that she could not eat in one of her dishes. Service was unremarkable and the waitress seemed to be negotiating a corporate contract in taking our order. The gut rot after dinner was nauseating, so I wonder how cleanly it is. If you want a better experience, just keep it simple and go somewhere else.

    We have been to all of higher end restaurants in the Phoenix area. This was by far our favorite. Not only was the food the best we have ever had, but the staff here went above and beyond what we have experienced anywhere else. We booked through open table, and before our reservation the restaurant reached out to not only confirm but ask if we had any dietary restrictions, give directions for the best parking, and acknowledged that we were celebrating our anniversary and ask that it was okay to bring out a champagne toast. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone for a special occasion or for just a fun night out. We will definitely be back and can’t wait to taste what’s on the menu next time. Thank you for making our anniversary special and memorable.

    Amazing food and service. The staff was friendly and fun for an upscale dining experience. The food was delightful. The potatoes gnocchi was outstanding as was the ribeye steak that was grilled. Indefinitely would go again. Make sure you have enough time and enjoy your company as the courses take some time to prepare each service.

    From the moment we walked up to the Restaurant we were treated with exemplary service. The Staff was fantastic and exceptionally well informed about the complex menu offered by the Chef. Complex meaning unique, creative, tasty, and beautifully displayed during each course. Our Mixologist was fantastic. He made me the first Manhattan that I've ever had--simply DELICIOUS. We had the 4 Course Offering and every bite of each Course was special. We both ordered the Ribeye and it was as good as a Steak can get. This is a one of a kind restaurant here in the Phoenix Valley. You simply will not find fine dining creativity like this elsewhere. We went to Quiescence for our 50th Anniversary and we simply loved the experience. We will be back.

    Walked in to be greeted by a wait staff member that went to get the menu and seat me, but decided to let me stand there and go seat a couple that arrived after me. This is at the farm but barn manners is not polite. The rest of the staff did amazing work to make up for the lack of etiquette. Have the mixologist craft something for you, it’s worth it and the food, that will not disappoint. It has always been my favorite date night place. Quaint, cozy, and cute. What is not grown on the grounds is Sourced locally.

    Farm fresh food! Every plate was well balanced and imaginative. We especially loved the amuse buche and palate cleanser sorbet. The wagyu was everything we could have hoped for and dessert ( the cannoli) exceeded expectations. But it comes with a pretty price tag, so come prepared to spend money

    Would not recommend. Overly priced menu that includes additional charges for their entree options! Dessert not included! I can understand spacing out of the meal courses but it is too slow for my preference. All in all, overly priced restaurant with outdated seating and decor at the back of the restaurant, that charges your extra for every aspect of the meal. Food ingredients is fresh for sure, but meals are average in taste and creations and nothing extraordinary. Definitely will not come back nor recommend. Plenty of other restaurants to enjoy in the area and better food/experiences for the cost. Many open tables on Saturday, which was the first probably the first hint that this place might just be all hype and no substance. The ambience of the farm is nice but the seating and tables toward the back of the restaurant is poorly lit, decorated and old, not rustic. It takes away from the meal and overall ambience. Additionally, we requested indoor seating to be away from bugs/insects. However, being close to the outdoor backyard seating, the restaurant kept the backyard door open which allowed insects to fly in. The corner table they sat us in was not swept or cleaned properly so I had to double check for bugs prior to sitting and throughout the night. Mentioned that we were celebrating a birthday, but unlike other restaurants, did not seat us in a nice area nor offer a complementary dessert for the occasion. Overall, poor experience.

    Definitely worth the experience, must try at least once. My boyfriend and I went for a random date and for our 3 course meal and dessert, we spent almost 400 bucks. The food is directly from the farm and put on our table. The food was decadent, flavorful and the combinations of flavor were phenomenal! The portions are small, so don't be surprised when they bring out your courses but by the end of the experience you will leave satisfied. The service is superb and everyone is extremely friendly and polite.
