Brought a date here and was excited to showcase the gorgeous garden and old school Scottsdale design, but was pretty disappointed. Our server Dominique was lovely and very accommodating. She removed an item from the bill that was clearly overcooked. Might try it again in the cooler months.

We ordered from the "all day brunch" menu and started with the Baja Stone Crab Cakes, which were delicious. Our entree came out quickly, so not much time to enjoy the appetizer took home leftovers. My friend enjoyed the shrimp tacos and I loved the short rib/potato bake with eggs. Dessert was key lime pie with a white chocolate feather garnish. A wonderful dining experience.

Beautiful and relaxing location. There also was a very talented saxophonist playing. Service and food was spot on as well. Lons is our favorite restaurant for special occasions. We never have to worry that it won’t be a great experience

He let us casually dine, enjoy our cock5ails, appetizers, and meal at a very relaxed and wonderful pace. Casey, the sommelier, helped us find a perfect wine pairing at a reasonable price-point that was balanced, deep, and delicious. We love dining at Lon’s😍
