Nestled in a picturesque boutique hotel, Lon's offers a delightful dining experience with exceptional service and scrumptious brunch, perfect for special occasions.
"Ethan Lim wasn’t always about a fancy family dinner at Hermosa, his comfy little restaurant in the neighborhood of the same name. It’s worth a weekday visit to get the Cambodian fried chicken sandwich alone, but Lim always has something fun with a rotating menu and some of the best french fries in town." - Ashok Selvam, Eater Staff
"A Phoenix resort classic, LON’s blends rustic Southwestern charm with modern sophistication. The expansive patio, complete with fireplaces for winter and shaded nooks for summer, offers a tranquil setting day or night. Dishes like Himalayan salt-seared ahi tuna and coffee-crusted prime steak showcase a menu that highlights locally sourced ingredients, from Arizona-grown produce to regional seafood. For brunch, the croissant Benedict and breakfast fried rice are standout choices. Live music on select evenings adds to the romantic vibe." - Mcconnell Quinn
"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
"Lon’s at the Hermosa Inn in Paradise Valley is perhaps the most elegant brunch option in town. Panoramic views from the patio that overlook six acres of lush landscaping add charm to weekend brunch, which starts at 7 a.m. on Saturdays and Sundays. Meanwhile huevos rancheros, freshly baked monkey bread, and bananas Foster French toast deliver in taste and presentation." - Mcconnell Quinn, Jamie Killin
"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
