I always love going to Lon’s when I’m in the Scottsdale area. Due to the unseasonable cold weather we sat inside and it was so nice.

I took a friend to Lon’s to celebrate her birthday. We both enjoyed delicious salads. She ordered the Sonoran Salad and she enjoyed every bite! I ordered the Caesar Salad and added chicken. It too was delicious and the portion was so big that I took half home for dinner! The ambiance at Lon’s is beautiful inside and out and the service is exceptional.

Charming, vintage Arizona restaurant at the Hermosa Inn. The patio is very attractive, but we dined indoors due to cool weather. We had a quiet table in a small room that was comfortable and attractive. Classic upscale but casual Southwest ambiance. The service and food were excellent! We will return soon.

Very mediocre food at a high price. Beautiful setting. Our server was attentive but at the wrong moments to where it felt disruptive of conversations but wasn’t there to ask if everything was ok or if we were ready to pay.

Another great outdoor dining experience. Service was amazing and everyone was very attentive. Our server was Angela and the manager was Matthew. The only suggestion I would make is bring back the healthier grilled shrimp tacos versus the new fried version. The smoked salmon on pretzel bun is an excellent starter but a crispy bun would make a whole new experience!

Overall the food was good. The monkey bread was cold and hardly any caramel sauce - a kind of dry.

We celebrated our anniversary with Sunday brunch outside under the heaters. It was lovely and the food was so good. The menu is diverse, and well proportioned. This is one of my favorite restaurants.
