    We enjoyed our dinner on the patio tonight. Great food, service, and ambiance. We were especially impressed with the birthday platter to celebrate my mother in law’s 100th. Memorable evening!

    Always great eating on the patio at Rita’s Cantina, and the food never disappoints. One new twist is that you can reserve a guaranteed table on the patio for $20 per party (not applied to the bill)…we were a little surprised, but the number of tables with “reserved” placards on them when we arrived indicated that people are accepting this new approach.

    Fantastic service for our party of 14. Great food as well. Can’t beat the location with the outside area and music. Great experience for my wife’s birthday! A little over overpriced but I can see why.

    Rita’s is a beautiful restaurant with a fantastic outdoor setting! This is a must go to for Sunday brunch as well as lunch during the week. We loved all the beautiful flowers surrounding the area.

    Highly recommend Sunday brunch. It is terrific. Lots of food choices, including vegan choices. Prime rib - a wonderful, spicy end piece! Seafood, meats, pastas, regular breakfast items, salads, tacos, great deserts. Desert standout was a pistachio mouse topped with chocolate bits and marinated berries. Spectacular! The brunch is a regular event - strongly recommend.

    What a gem of a place! The lobby was love at first sight, but I now know why everyone wants to sit outside. The courtyard is gorgeous and spacious with live music, flowers and water features; dining under the stars cannot get much better than this! The Adobo Shrimp Enchiladas were superb and my chocolate mousse was a work of art. Looking forward to a return visit to dine at Lincoln’s Steakhouse & Bar! Check out the sweet chapel on your way to your car. A piece of Phoenix history well-preserved. Kudos to Marriott!
