Best Tapas Restaurants in Desert Ridge

We always love the dishes we order at The Mick. They’re delicious and unique. Service is always friendly and good. One of the best wine menus in the Valley to pair with the dishes.

Tia Carmen is a must-dine experience whenever you’re visiting the Phoenix area. The service was incredible. The staff is passionate about their restaurant and it shows in the care they provide during your dining experience. The food was amazing; I tried the Pan Frito, Tuna Crudo, Ember Roasted Purple Yam and the 16oz ribeye. The Pan Frito dish had the perfect balance and sweet and spicy combining the serranos and cotija cheese with the honey butter. The Tuna Crudo was tender with a delicious corn coconut broth. The Ember Roasted Purple Yam had a light and fluffy queso sauce atop the smooth, delectable yam. And to complete the perfect meal, the 16oz ribeye. The bone marrow butter atop the ribeye made this perhaps the best steak I’ve ever experienced and I’ll certainly be back for many years to come. Thank you so much for making this an unforgettable experience!

I honestly don't have the vocabulary to properly express how much I love and enjoy Tapas Papa Frita. My wife and I have lived in Arizona for five years now, we've travelled around the state quite a bit, and this is my single favorite place to eat. By a very long margin. Never had a bad plate, never a bad meal, never anything less than a courteous host and server, always the highest marks. Can't wait for our next visit.

Amazing Valentines Day Dinner. Got there early to explore and enjoy the views. Had two rounds of drinks at the wine bar and then got the most amazing table with views for dinner. 4 course menu delicious and the somm helped us get an awesome bottle of Chianti.

What a phenomenal experience from the host checking us into our reservation, to the servers taking the time to explain the menu and offering excellent suggestions. I loved the Crudo, Boqarones, and the Steak
