"The Hermosa Inn is a hidden gem tucked away in Paradise Valley. The boutique hotel’s feeling of luxurious seclusion seeps into the al fresco dining 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. Eating indoors is just as pleasant, if for no other reason because the food is the real focal point. Highlights include the ahi tuna seared tableside, and hearty short ribs with a tart yet sweet cipollini agrodolce sauce. Make sure to peek into the Wine Cellar (if it’s open), with its historic brick decor." - Asonta Benetti
