LON's at the Hermosa

In a beautiful old adobe hacienda built by cowboy artist Lon Megargee and surrounded by colorful gardens, this restaurant is one of the most classically Arizonan places in the Phoenix area, and the patio, with its view of Camelback Mountain, is blissfully tranquil. Lunch on the patio is the meal to have here, although the menu at dinner is far more Southwestern than at lunch. Keep an eye out for salads made with prickly-pear vinaigrette and any dish with Arizona-farmed shrimp. The bar here has a cozy and romantic Wild West feel. Dishes often include herbs grown in the restaurant's own garden, and other ingredients are, as much as possible, from ecologically sound sources.
