10. Arturo's Mexican Restaurant

Arturo's always seems to have an over-filled parking lot at lunchtime, so we thought we'd give it a try.The quality of food at Arturo's is average - nothing different than you'll find at hundreds of other restaurants across the country. The variety is slightly below average - there are a limited number of dishes, and none of them are standouts.The lunch specials (six?) were the most reasonably priced, but there aren't many of them, and we didn't find them appealing. The entrees run from $10 to around $16, and in our opinion were overpriced for the quality. Quantity was fine. Service was OK. Restaurant was clean. There's a full bar,The one thing that was truly outstanding with our meal was the corn tortilla served on the side. Wow - if only all the other parts of our meal had been as fresh and flavorful!Nothing here (even the tortilla) made us want to come back.

Casa Alvarez is in the rear of a building it shares with Dinner Bell Cafe. Decor can be considered either Prescott Quaint or Seedy, depending on your view. What's important are the food and service--both very good. Preparation is authentic, portions generous, and a big side salad featuring quality lettuce precedes the meal. Service is friendly, prices reasonable. We probably will make Casa Alvarez our go-to Mexican.

We went to brunch with friends. Surprisingly, people were lined up prior to the 10am opening. Perhaps it was the draw of the free champagne with certain brunch items.The menu was extensive with various exotic breakfast choices. The service was attentive even though the restaurant was well full.Once the food arrived, we were all appreciative of how the meals were presented; beautiful and appetizing. The actual taste was fair, but not good enough to attract us to come again. So, if you enjoy complementary champagne with your Sunday brunch, this is a fine choice. If not, you might do well to explore other morning options.

After our hike we went here to have lunch. I was the only one in the group who has been here many times. I ordered the garlic fries and the catfish bites. Oh my everyone loved them. We each had a bloody mary to drink and it was very good. Our waitress was super sweet and we got there early enough so that we didn't have to worry about the lunch hour rush.The best thing we had was the chocolate bread pudding with kahlua butter sauce. It was to die for.

Built in an old train station, this place was a fun find after a fun day in downtown Prescott. Cool menu, with amazing specials. We got the blackened catfish with shrimp. Also the blacked chicken over rice. Tons of good choices and a friendly ambiance. Make it your stop!

A clean, rustic, western restaurant with friendly service. However, my wife's eggs were undercooked and her potatoes were cold. My omelet was very good but my potatoes were barely warm. Had to ask the waitress for seconds on coffee. Prices were reasonable. I gujess we just expected more based on TripAdvisor rating.

Great location next to creek When you make a reservation you should not have to wait 30 minutes Best then to not take reservations and make it first come first serve You can call for wait time We ordered Sangria which was very disappointing Not a good blend We've had better many places The fried avocado was good and the crab cakes were delicious The escargot was disappointing presented on bread soaked in gravy Normally it would be presented in garlic butter as we have enjoyed many times We also tried the Tabouli which was excellent served with pita bread The menu is very extensive which will bring us back to try more items Hopefully managment is receptive to constructive suggestions Thank you for dining with us and for taking the time to write a review. - We read 'em all and learn from them too!Not sure when you dined with us, but occasionally other guests get lost in the evening and stay longer than we anticipate. It doesn't happen often, but we generally leave ample times between turns to allow guests the appropriate time to enjoy themselves, while not infringing on other reservations. Music nights can be especially challenging - but your comments were definitely noted.Yeah, the escargot is not a traditional presentation, but we have been serving for over 20 years. We use Sherry and Fresh Herbs instead of White Wine & Garlic. I would say most people really enjoy it, but some may prefer the traditional prep.Sounds like you had an overall enjoyable experience, and we look forward to having you back soon.Thanks again,Barry

We serve tasty food with a twist. Gluten Free, Vegetarian and Vegan options available.
Reviewed By Brittany R
What a gem! Fun and inviting, this is The Breakfast Club of Arizona! Food was fantastic, locally sourced, organic, and minimally processed. There was also a lot of it! Gluten free options abound as most things on the menu can be altered and are prepared separately if you let them know you've got celiac. Baked goods that literally make your mouth water and a friendly staff round out a really nice morning! All they're missing is a secret speakeasy in the basement, a loony password, and an old refrigerator entrance!Hi Brittany, thank you for your feedback and so pleased to hear you enjoyed your meal on your recent visit. Since you did such an amazing job describing our restaurant, I would like to add that We have an eclectic menu and serve non GMO foods and 50% + is organic. Everything is made from scratch, including our English Muffins and biscuits, etc., using the finest ingredients. We do not use fryers, microwaves; everything is made fresh to order. As much as we can, we will source local suppliers supporting our local businesses and agriculture. Next time you come in, remind me to give you our secret password!!
