Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Desert Ridge

A place that knows it value, the Mercado at Tia Carmen is a more than solid choice for breakfast. Its buffet style breakfast, has a not to large not to small selection of hot and cold offerings. Nothing is subpar, and many selections (like the beef, rice and yogurt) are exceptional. Only bake goods are uneven in taste. Coffee is top notch. Jams, meats, fruit and great. Omelette station available too. Service is attentive and not bothersome. Expensive but worth it.

We ate in the lounge and our server Crystal was wonderful. She is so nice and engaging, made things very enjoyable. My appetizer was the Involti eggplant and it was so good. My wife had a Greek salad and really liked it. She ordered the Carni pizza, it was delicious. I had the Halibut puttanesca and requested the sweet corn risotto which they fixed for me. It was fabulous and I would definitely get it again The gentleman playing music in the lounge was very good and engaged the crowd, we had some good laughs.

Awesome service! Angelique did a fantastic job. Spotless glasses, silverware and plates. Restrooms extremely clean. Great ambiance. Food selection great and delicious. Our permanent dinner spot before shows at the MIM!

At first our service was great. We had to ask for the Special Lunch Menu - called Power Lunch for $19.00. There were 11 girls, all of us ordered from this menu. Waiter took our order, food was good but never got any Bacon on our entrees. Waiter never came back to ask us how are food was. Waiter never came back to fill up the water glasses. Waiter apologized about the No Bacon - said they didn't have any. He gave each of us a $10 off card to use next time. I would go back again.

 I always have a good experience here. I love the music and dancing. I would recommend recommend for some good night out, especially if you feel like dancing. Thank you.
