"The Hermosa Inn is a hidden gem tucked away in Paradise Valley. The boutique hotel’s feeling of luxury and seclusion seeps into the al fresco dining situation for its restaurant Lon’s. This is a place to enjoy outdoors when the weather is good, given its abundance of flowers, plants, and soft lighting. No matter where you sit, food is the focal point here. Highlights of the substantial menu include the parsnip ravioli with elk shank ragu and butter-basted prawn and scallop with sticky rice and red curry broth. Make sure to peek into the Wine Cellar if it’s open, to take in its historic brick decor." - Asonta Benetti
