What a great dining experience. My Sea Bass was succulent and my wife’s chicken was so juicy. The wine list was expansive and we chose a Chardonnay to go with our meal which Brian the Sommelier agreed with our decision and it turned out to be the perfect pairing. Service was impeccable provided by Brett and and his assistants. All I can say is Lon’s is an unforgettable dining experience in a surrounding that shouts Arizona. We will be back.

The food was great, but the prices were steep. The bar was nice and the indoor dining area was very quiet, mostly due to the fact that most patrons were dining outside.

Granted, we arrived a little late but the first lady we spoke to said there was 2 mins until the kitchen closed which wasn’t the nicest welcome. Beautiful patio and surroundings and quick efficient service but a few issues with birds dropping in a few little gifts on the table whilst we were eating. We had a bit of a hiccup ordering a gluten free pudding which through miscommunication turned out not to be. Luckily my dining partner only took a couple of bites but is now suffering the consequences. I’d say it was a 50/50 mixup but to prevent it happening again it would be a good idea for the restaurant to ask if there are any allergies (standard practice) and for a manager to take the order (again standard practice) to avoid what could potentially be a much worse situation. Unfortunately it wasn’t the experience I was hoping for but aside from this the food was good.

Enjoyed the restaurant very beautiful surroundings. The only thing is that the main course seemed to need some type of a sauce. I had the tuna but definitely would go back.
