Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Desert Ridge

We had a very pleasant experience on Christmas Eve. The food was very well prepared and tasty. The food were beautifully presented, making them even better! We loved our visit!

Excellent dining experience..Food, drinks, service were 5star. We will definitely be back

First time eating at Marinos and we’ll definitely be back. Everything we ordered was delicious and portions were generous. Our group shared two salads the Cesar and wedge. The entrées were chicken Alfredo, vodka chicken Parmesan, short ribs served on polenta (which were outstanding), and meat pizza. The crust was more like a hand tossed. The place has a cool vibe and great outdoor eating area. The bar is cool.

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.

We dined here during the 12 Days of Christmas menu. It was spectacular and the restaurant accommodated our dietary preferences (no red meat for me and a nut allergy for my husband). Terrific service too. The location is a bit unfortunate, the “patio” location is in a parking lot next to a quick serve restaurant with bright overhead lights so despite the environment crated, the in the patio, the bright and lights were quite hard to not notice. Highly recommend the food and can’t wait to try brunch.
