History & Heritage, Revised

We love serving you, our neighbors and our Arizona community. Your health and safety, along with the wellbeing of our team, are of paramount importance to us. And so, in compliance with Arizona Governor Doug Ducey's official ordinance, issued March 19, we will be shutting our doors temporarily beginning March 21. This certainly isn't goodbye, it's farewell for now. We'll be back as soon as we can, and look forward to welcoming each of you in the near future. Stay safe!
 
The hotel itself remains open for guests and our community, with extra precautions put in place for the wellbeing of all.
Barbecued sea bass. Slow-braised pork carnitas with sweet corn and habanero. Enjoy signature guacamole crafted tableside and an unmatched selection of tequilas and agave cocktails at what has been voted time and time again as Arizona's best Mexican restaurant. Encounter authentic recipes from across Mexico infused with innovation, from unexpected pairings to indigenous ingredients. In collaboration with world-renowned Chef Richard Sandoval, Executive Chef Forest Hamrick has transformed Mexican food in Scottsdale, bringing the sights, sounds and smells of a traditional upscale Mexican kitchen directly to your table.
 
With beehive fireplaces and a wood-beamed ceiling, the newly renovated casita feels warm and welcoming. Modern touches enhance the Spanish architecture, just as creative ideas inspire the restaurant's classic Mexican cuisine. Perhaps the most exciting addition is the brilliant new patio, perfect for starlit dining.
