Tonto Bar & Grill

BFF and I celebrated her birthday at Tonto Bar & Grill mid afternoon/mid week outside patio... Beautiful view, calm receptive service, and environment with Rose, named aptly, providing superior service. Recommending dishes on the menu, (which have remained patron favs for over 30 years) proved to be stellar selections. Recommending the nonalcoholic drinks paired with fish, yummy, wallaby, and more! Added to the fish plates, a light sauce, and sautéed vegies. Surprise, Birthday mini cake! Yes, we will visit again! Thank you, Rose .

A group of four of us really enjoyed our evening out at Tonto Bar & Grill. The Three Sisters Salsa & Guac was a hit with us and seemed to be on many tables around us. We all enjoyed fish for our main entrees. The Sanddabs was my choice and I sautéd fillets were nicely seasoned and cooked. Sides of snap peas, roasted carrots and mashed potatoes made the plate very satisfying. Others enjoyed the Walleye, Salmon and the special, Sea Bass. Cocktails were very good. The service was friendly and helpful.

Absolute gem. I was a bit disappointed when my group chose to eat here instead of venturing into Cave Creek but the Spanish southwestern ambiance and delicious and elevated dishes were lovely to look at and lovelier to eat. The calamari was some of the best ive ever had due to the picked sweet pea tomatoes sprinkled on top and my perfect accompaniment; spicy aoli. The summer salad with goat cheese and strawberries was fresh, bright, and delicious. The schnitzel (apparently a 10 year favorite and menu staple) and red cabbage with neon butter caper sauce was delivious and elevated and executed very well. If there was any downside, its that their price reflects their quality.

Would like to see a few more taps including some darker beers. Johnny, our barkeep, was excellent and interesting. We ate and drank in the bar so no info on the restaurant.

Great food options and vegan / vegetarian options as well. The only complaint is they have a 4% fee added to cover taxes and employee salaries. This is just stupid. Just raise your prices to justify operating costs.

I really enjoy the outdoor patio and the view of the golf course. The food and service are excellent…and the gluten-free crab cakes are my favorite! They’ll accommodate your food allergies. The local roadrunner came by looking for crumbs (see pics)!

The food was great, and the view was incredible! The service wasn't amazing at first but after a few tables cleared the waitress became much friendlier! Overall a great night!

Homey feel inside and a nice outdoors seating in back. Food is good with their own take of upscale tastes of a western flare. Sometime too much spice. I had scallops that were served with a sweet potato mash with a Chipotle drizzle. Brussel Sprouts and fingerling potatoes all in the spicy potatoes mash. Too much heat.
