    My fiancé and I went there for dinner to celebrate her birthday and shared a steak dinner. The steak was the smallest one I have ever been served in my life. It was approximately 2" in diameter and way too small for one person let alone two. Probably will not be back because of the expensive cost for such a small steak. Thank You

    Fabulous dinner with a long time friend. I love the rustic feel of the Tonto bar and grill. The views are amazing our server was very friendly and attentive. We had the corn chowder which was rich and delicious. The pork was flavorful with the right amount of spice. Thank you Tonto for a lovely evening

    A place that knows it value, the Mercado at Tia Carmen is a more than solid choice for breakfast. Its buffet style breakfast, has a not to large not to small selection of hot and cold offerings. Nothing is subpar, and many selections (like the beef, rice and yogurt) are exceptional. Only bake goods are uneven in taste. Coffee is top notch. Jams, meats, fruit and great. Omelette station available too. Service is attentive and not bothersome. Expensive but worth it.
