    We had a large luncheon for 16. They were very accommodating , allowed separate checks. The food as always was great and the wait staff was terrific especially since our group was so large.

    We were visiting AZ & Tonto was recommended to us. So glad we went, everything was perfect! From our seat outside by the fire, service was excellent, and the food was so delicious! We will return on our next trip there.

    We've been going to Tonto Grill for years and always enjoy it. We appreciate that the noise level is low enough so that we can talk with our friends. Many restaurants these days are uncomfortably loud.
