"Lon’s at the Hermosa Inn offers a special view of nearby Camelback Mountain in a private, serene space surrounded by colorful flowers and a vintage fountain. It’s a setting reminiscent of an old hacienda. Chef Alejandro Martinez adds global touches to Southwestern dishes, many of them wood-grilled and made with local ingredients. His seasonal menus might include charred octopus with anasazi beans, artichokes and chistorra, Patagonian lamb rack with caponata and fava beans, or local chicken with onion-ash potato puree, honey-roasted carrots and Meyer lemon parsley vinaigrette. Seasonal desserts are always outstanding." - Mcconnell Quinn, Nikki Buchanan, jamiekillin, Rudri Patel
