“ I have been here more than a dozen times since 2016 for all occasions and family reunion. Love the serive, food, atmosphere and ambiance. Food is expensive but you get what you pay for. Worth the experience. RSVP is highly recommended. I even bought Lisa's 2 cookbooks. ”
“ Mariposa is incredible!!! As we parked we were able to hook up the Tesla for free charging, on the most incredible parking lot that allows you to see all the Sedona mountains surrounding the restaurant. The entrance is marvelous, the main door is made out of crystals it’s super cool! The service was amazing the lady said she recently moved to Sedona a couple weeks ago she was incredibly personal lady with a unique name. The food was A HUGE hit! I’m glad I was able to celebrate my birthday here since it’s hard to find restaurants that celebrate your birthday! My partner is gluten free and vegetarian and she had plenty of protein in her meal which we love to see. The view as we ate was also stunning. We will definitely come back here even for when we aren’t celebrating anything since the food and atmosphere is completely worth the experience. Thank you Mariposa! ”
“ Amazing food and fantastic views! We had octopus and tuna as an appetizer, and both were very good. Tuna is light, and octopus is more substantial. Fillet Mignon was superb most definitely recommend! Potato au gratin was a highlight for us! Tried cheesecake and chocolate cake as deserts, cheesecake is light and was my favorite. ”
“ Back in Sedona and this time visited this wonderful restaurant. From the moment before you enter the restaurant you are in total awe of the beauty of the place. Its backdrop is the gorgeous red mountains and it’s totally breathtaking the view. The restaurant inside is gorgeous, beautiful wall art. We opted for the patio seating and being there sort of seems surreal with the red Mountains View. Just gorgeous Our lunch was super yummy- loved their yucca fries. The ceviche had a bit too much ketchup for my taste but it was still good. The corn empanadas were delicious. Most especially the coconut flan was awesome. Hopefully when we go back to Sedona I get to visit for dinner!! This place is a must go while in Sedona! You won’t regret it ”
“ This place is a must experience in Sedona. We went to other high end restaurants and this one felt the most worth it's value. High quality food, incredible atmosphere, and they made us feel special celebrating our honeymoon. Put your reservation in advance. You can't really just walk in. We saw about 5 couples try to walk in and were turned away because they had reservations filled the rest of the evening. Dress business casual. We saw a couple get turned away because the woman was wearing short jean shorts. You don't need to go to all out (unless you want to) but don't be overly casual. ”
“ We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner. They were a little behind seating guests but they were very busy and handled it professionally. We started with the Octopus. I had the beef empanadas with chimichurri. Absolutely delicious. My husband had the skirt steak. Cooked to perfection and so very tender. Also very delicious. I loved his potatoes. They were soooo good. The waiter was very good but I really loved his support person. She was fantastic! ”
“ I absolutely love this place! If you’re more of a view person then I recommend you go more during brunch time and ask to be seated outside so you can enjoy the Mountain View. The steak I got was just alright. 6/10 Empanada appetizer 10/10 Shrimp appetizer 10/10 Coffee/alcoholic drink 10/10 This is a little bit more on the pricey side but for the view, location, service and food I’d say it’s worth it. Make sure you take pictures outside before you walk in! You won’t regret it! ”
“ This restaurant was lovely! The food was phenomenal. Lance was our waiter and he was great!! The atmosphere was classy. I would definitely eat here again. Only downfall was that I booked my reservation 3 months in advance and didn’t even get sat by a window with the beautiful view. Everything else was great! ”
