Uptown Sedona Arizona Restaurants

Canyon Breeze Restaurant Sedona
For one of the Sedona Arizona restaurants that’s perfect for a quick and inexpensive meal with a great view, Canyon Breeze is a breeze of a choice. Its simple, cafeteria-style dining room has jaw-dropping views of the towering red rocks over Oak Creek Canyon through its 120-foot glass walls. We think the view’s even better from the patio. The food is American grill and Mexican favorites including roasted turkey sandwich, grilled paninis, fish tacos, gourmet pizza, salads and pancakes. There’s also a full bar, a coffee bar or you can get ice cream, sorbet or fruit smoothies. We think it can't be beat for a really quick meal or snack.

The Gallery on Oak Creek

This art-inspired Sedona fine dining restaurant is part of the Amara Creekside Resort, which is nestled right along the banks of tree-lined Oak Creek. We enjoyed the Gallery's eclectic, Italian-inspired cuisine of dishes such as slow-roasted lemon-rosemary chicken with garlic-mascarpone whipped potatoes and herb-roasted salmon roulade. The work of local artists adorns the walls and tables. Ask for the Art Menu if you're interested in purchasing your a piece of Sedona art. The patio with a firepit and red rock views is a great spot for a romantic dinner.

Southern Sedona Arizona Restaurants

Elote Café
Scottsdale chef Jeff Smedstad, known for his exceptional Mexican cooking when he was chef at Los Sombreros, has set up shop in Sedona. Elote Café continues Smedstad's delicious exploration of regional Mexican cuisine. Only now his restaurant has stunning red rock views to match the food. We found the food and the service to be exceptional. Smedstad’s restaurant may be casual but he’s serious about his food. Dishes like green corn tamal, chicken tacos de mole, lamb adobo and pepita-crusted snapper are a revelation for those used to the typical Mexican fare of enchiladas and burritos. Everything is superbly fresh and beautifully presented. Don't miss the side dish of elote - from which the restaurant gets its name. This bowl of roasted corn enhanced with lime, Cotija cheese and a spicy mayonnaise – is an authentic Mexican treat. Elote Cafe has become one of the most popular Sedona Arizona restaurants, so make reservations.
