Top of the Rock Restaurant

We loved EVERYTHING about this restaurant. We are from Chicago and have very high standards for food & service. We were visiting friends & I found this place while doing research on places to eat as I have a gluten allergy. This. Place. Is. Perfect. The ambiance is beautiful, the staff was very friendly & efficient. I booked our reservations for outdoors as the weather was 83°. And would still be nice into the evening. I wanted to book the time frame so we'd have sunshine, then see the sunset & the lights displayed in the evening all around the restaurant. THE VIEWS ARE STUNNING!!! The staff were attentive and helpful with recommendations. Our food was absolutely delicious! I ordered Seabass with mashed potatoes & asparagus. My hubby had roasted chicken. Our friends ordered lamb chops & the charcuterie board. We throughly enjoyed our evening!! I will return every time I come to AZ. If you visit AZ and it's not too far away you MUST book your resey here.

We had absolutely great food, but suffered from management issues. We are used to great, high quality food in Chicago and we are giving it high marks for food. However, we arrived after the rush at 8:30pm to long delays with table service, bar service and it took so long to give our order that they had run out of 3 of our top entree choices. The waitress seemed stressed and was clearly conflicted between being personable and getting things done - not her fault. In the end we had a nice server and great food, a beautiful interior (it was dark so no view), but nothing else was to the same standards as the food. Chicago prices as well. (Hotel and resort restaurants are never as good as independently owned ones, btw). They were also REALLY fantastic for supporting gluten free dining
