Italian specialties for this restaurant with a large wooden terrace very pleasant. This establishment is specialized in pizzas with a long list in the calzone style or in the pure New York tradition. The house also distinguishes itself by its pasta dishes with notably spaghetti and meatballs. For a little extra, you can add a salad or soup. The dishes are copious and you will certainly not be disappointed. Be careful, because this restaurant does not take reservations and it is often crowded.

Formerly the Arizona Room, Arizona Steakhouse is the Bright Angel Lodge's steakhouse. Steaks, BBQ, grilled chicken, but also salads and sandwiches (at noon only).

Arizona Steakhouse also offers a selection of beers and wines from local brewers and vintners. The food is very good. Reservations are highly recommended.

Very nice frame, with books with walls and large leather benches, which only ask you to welcome you to recover from your endless journeys. So, if it's not the giant screen that passes some sporting exploits of all kinds, and the music is a little commercial…

The restaurant offers classic classics, pizzas, sandwiches and salads at the finest prices.

This former 1930s gas station has been converted into a restaurant with a beautiful outdoor patio. Sit among the old gas pumps and other relics of the '66 and enjoy the smells of the food served here. Steaks, ribs, burgers, salads, grilled chicken and of course an assortment of desserts. The bar offers a nice selection of local beers. There are screens on the walls showing sports channels, and in the summer, it's not uncommon for bands to provide musical entertainment outside.

A canteen for hikers and mule trekkers from the North and South Rims. There's no need to arrive for a meal without first making a reservation on the website.

A vegetarian version is also available. An ideal place for those who love the chalet atmosphere.

Typical Mexican dishes at more than reasonable prices, judging by the astronomical amount of the contents of the plate!

As its name indicates, exclusively Asian specialities. Good kitchens in a framework, admittedly formal but pretty. Very reasonable prices.

This Italian-influenced American restaurant serves mouth-watering food in a simple, kitschy setting that is quite pleasant. The menu is small, with a few starters and salads, but mostly pasta. Marinara, alfredo, carbonara, tomato and basil cream, with clams... The sauces are quite classic. A few specialties stand out, such as fettuccine with blackened salmon and lobster ravioli. Also on the menu: nice pieces of meat, from veal to steak and chicken. Special mention to the friendly staff.

Grand Canyon Lodge offers several types of dining options (Dining Room, Deli in the Pines and Roughrider Saloon). The first one offers simple and good food (breakfast, lunch and dinner) in a pleasant setting (magnificent view on the North Rim), the second one offers a fast food without more which will be convenient to eat on the run. Finally, we will stop at the last one for a coffee, a breakfast or to quench our thirst with a cold beer in a saloon atmosphere after a hike, a slice of pizza in hand. Small terrace to enjoy the sun.

You must not miss this mythical place of Head under any pretext. Huge steakhouse installed in one of the oldest houses of Head. The speciality is of course meat, but the menu offers varied dishes. Their bread, novel bread, prepared according to the same recipe for over thirty years, is excellent.

This restaurant's therapy: comfort food galore. In an atmosphere closer to the beaches of California than the desert of Arizona, you immediately feel relaxed and put at ease by the staff's cool attitude. Created by a group of friends for their friends, the menu is a long list of burgers, each more appetizing and gourmet than the last. Once you see the size of the plate and the volume of the sandwich, you wonder how you're going to manage. A word of advice: come hungry and take your time.

CIBO is located in a small house dating back to 1913 and completely renovated. From appetizers to pizzas to saltimboccas, the ingredients are carefully chosen, such as prosciutto and parmigiano reggiano directly imported from Italy. Tagliatelle à la bolognese, linguine cacio e pepe, gnocchetti with cheese... Also homemade, the pasta is only served after 5 pm. An excellent address, with unbeatable value for money. We love the terrace lit up at night and the authentic charm of this little place.

More than just a local fixture, Cafe Roka is probably one of the best restaurants in Arizona. Arriving in Bisbee in 1990 for a visit, chef Rod Kass immediately felt at home here; two years later, he opened this restaurant. Here, he serves refined cuisine with a modern twist, including Italian, Californian and Mediterranean touches. Although the menu contains only eight dishes, all are inspired and tasty, as are the nine "small plates " that lend themselves to sharing. Reservations highly recommended.

This healthy chain with about twenty locations spread between Arizona and Texas is very popular for its bowls, especially in the morning and at lunchtime.

A long list of fresh fruit juices and protein shakes with original recipes will delight customers who are still asleep. Finally, although a little noisy, the outdoor terrace is pleasant.

This small, unpretentious Mexican restaurant serves typical, perfectly seasoned cuisine. If you order the surprise plate, the chef will choose three menu items for you, depending on his mood. On the menu: plenty of eggs, chicken ranchero, beef barbecue or green chile ribeye. Vegetarians will find several equally appetizing alternatives. Although the interior is particularly noisy due to the volume of the music, the terrace offers a little more peace and quiet. An address that puts a smile on your face!

The Bright Angel Restaurant offers a classic, correct restaurant.

In this former gas station transformed into a restaurant by a Texan, you can enjoy sandwiches, nachos and, above all, barbecued ribs served in cardboard plates full of beans and coleslaw. A delight! Some evenings, cowboys come with their guitars and sing in front of the guests seated on long tables covered with checkered tablecloths. An address where authenticity and good atmosphere reign.

Dining at Vivace Restaurant is the promise of a wonderful evening. This superb Italian restaurant with its attentive staff is probably one of the best restaurants in Tucson, despite its affordable prices for the quality of its dishes. Special mention goes to the four-cheese manicotti, a homemade pasta stuffed with ricotta, fontine, pecorino, parmesan, tomato and mushrooms. Ask to be seated outside, absolutely charming, between its fountain, trees and cactus decorated with string lights. An excellent address!

Established in 2015, this excellent restaurant is known for the quality of its products, the refinement of its cuisine and the atmosphere of its lounge bar, as well as for the breathtaking view from its terrace. We find good meats, from chicken escalope to filet mignon, as well as a nice plate of salmon, swordfish or pasta. Special mention to the desserts, the peanut butter and chocolate pie in the lead. Whether it's for a drink or a meal, a stop in Sedona should always include a stop at the Hudson.

We don't come here for the charm of the establishment or its refined cuisine, but for its good value, its authenticity and above all its location: Hustle Bustle Cafe is the ideal place to have lunch if you're spending the day west of Tucson. It's a 5-minute drive from Old Tucson Studios, 10 minutes from the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum and 15 minutes from Saguaro National Park. The menu features classic American dishes, such as burgers and chicken tenders.

If you're looking for ambiance, come to Chingada Cocina Mexicana on Wednesdays, Thursdays or Sundays, between 6pm and 9pm. Choose from romantic serenades, acoustic guitar and mariachi. All this while savoring tasty, hearty cuisine, from traditional tamales to Mexican-style salmon and shrimp and garlic pasta. If you're on a budget, opt for the delicious tacos, whose tortilla is particularly good.

I fell in love with this wine bar located just off lively North^4th Avenue. Charming welcome, beautiful room adorned with a superb mural, candlelight, soft music - especially instrumental - intimate atmosphere... You'll be seduced as soon as you cross the threshold. Above all, we love the concept of composing your own board from a fine selection: burrata, fourme d'Ambert, truffle pecorino, aged manchego, bresaola, 24-month prosciutto and mortadella. To accompany it all, fine wines by the glass or bottle.

In the Hotel Congress, between Downtown and North^4th Street, this restaurant serves delicious breakfasts. A special mention goes to the Brioche French Toast, a French toast revisited with an orange and vanilla-scented brioche, accompanied by maple syrup and mascarpone. In the U.S., you'll also find a fine selection of eggs on the menu, from omelettes to "two eggs and toast any style " to eggs Benedict with smoked salmon and huevos rancheros - a Mexican dish. All served in a pretty, bright room.

Right from the front door, this saloon takes visitors back over a century, to the days of cowboys and the gold rush. Once you've managed to ignore the presence of the many other customers and the "Disneyland" feel they convey, you're fully immersed in the friendly atmosphere. If you don't come here for the finesse of the cuisine, the service is charming and the premises unique, the building being originally that of the Grand Hotel, built in 1881. Be sure to read the story written on the menu.

This simple yet sophisticated establishment seems to belong to the Old World. Rough Rider's concept is to house a ^21st-century restaurant as well as a late ^19th-century cocktail bar. On the menu: several punch recipes, more classic drinks with homemade compote or "curiosities". The food on offer is very good, from roast chicken with rosemary butter served with celeriac purée to pappardelle with pork ragout, sautéed ricotta and fried sage. An excellent address!

Nestled in the Arcadia district between Phoenix and Scottsdale, this address is worth a visit for its 100% American gastronomy specialty: the burger. The plates and portions may be unrefined, but the freshly ground meat makes all the difference. The principle is simple: a single recipe, The Standard, is available in four different forms, each enhanced by other ingredients. Don't miss the salted dulce de leche milkshake. Excellent value for money.

Le Belly is a journey to Asia in itself. It draws its inspiration from Vietnamese, Thai and Japanese cultures, both in its sharing plates and dishes and in its tasty cocktails. Enjoy delicious Pho, pork with mustard and fried rice, or fish and chips with tofu. For dessert: sticky rice, the traditional glutinous rice served with seasonal fruit. Also try Naga thai tai, a cocktail combining Thai tea rum, lemon, bubble tea-style fruit pearls and cynar, an Italian bitter.

Synonymous with a successful breakfast or brunch, Ollie Vaughn's is one of our favorite Phoenix addresses. From pancakes and bagels to quiches and sandwiches, the preparations are fresh and tasty. It's hard to choose between the cakes on display, but we recommend the cheesecake and the Nutella mousse tart. You can enjoy all this to the accompaniment of discreet music either indoors or in the lovely shady garden, with its plants and superb mural.

Little Miss BBQ is one of Phoenix's must-try restaurants for grilled meat or meat in sauce, Texas-style. Located in an industrial district, the restaurant has built a solid reputation that has been maintained over the years. On the menu: sausage, turkey, ribs, pulled pork and beef brisket from every angle. Smaller budgets will prefer sandwiches. Note that another address has opened in the Sunnyslope district, to the north of the city.

Founded in 2013, this small chain also located in the Arcadia neighborhood and Scottsdale is a good alternative to the Mexican and Italian cuisine in vogue nearby. Above all, it's an opportunity to access healthy, vegetarian and tasty options, like the Heirloom Brown Rice Bowl. It's made with sorrel pesto, kale, sweet potatoes, feta, pickled mushrooms, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, a soft-boiled egg, brown rice and dill. Delicious! Also note that Ingo serves breakfast around the clock.
