Taking Sedona Restaurants To Another Level - Don't Watch on MT Stomach

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty NRDS # 146013739

Mariposa Restaurant - Latin Inspired Grill - Sedona

Lisa Dahl Restaurants

WARNING: Don't Watch any of Lisa Dahl's videos on an empty stomach (MT)!  Lisa Dahl is very comfortable in front of the camera and her cullinary skills rise to another level as well. The food is as tasty as it appears in all her videos.

I can remember when there was only one of her restaurants in town. I just recently spent a wonderful evening at the original "Dahl and Di Luca Ristorante Italiano" with a client.  A few years ago I spent a romantic Valentine's Day dinner enjoying a six course menu especially created by Lisa for that evening. 

Cucina Rustica was the second restaurant of the four. It is located on SR 179 in The Collective Sedona as you enter the Village of Oak Creek from I-17. If you are coming from West Sedona or Uptown, it is about 25 minutes to the east. There is wonderful romantic patio dining that can be enjoyed most of the year. I have spent a couple of anniversary dinners. Cucina Rustica is another restaurant I enjoy taking clients.

The property that Mariposa Latin Inspired Grill is built on, was once the home of a real estate office. My home is five minutes away in Soldiers Pass which is the view you see from the restaurant. I pass by it every day on the way to office at Coldwell Banker.

This land with those iconic views sat with an empty decaying building on it for many, many years, and I often wondered about the possibilies this land could hold for our wonderful community. Like some people dream about the lottery, I had a fantasy dream of building a home capturing these views from that property. It was a dream come true to be able to enjoy wonderful food creations and Mother Nature's creation at the same time. 

Please enjoy this little snippet of video and Lisa Dahl's creations. At the 1 minute mark  (below), there is a quick aerial view of Soldiers Pass and Mariposa. You can find more videos here.

Hi Ron and Alexandra Seigel - we went there for lunch over the summer and Mariposa was closed while they were filming.

Sheri, just like it is a good idea not to go grocery shopping on an MT stomach ... the same goes for watching cooking shows.

So true Kathleen Daniels - Yesterday we had lunch and went to Costco and passed on all the goodies they were serving.

I even like her creative names for her restaurants. We need a good Italian restaurant in Clarksville. We only have Olive Garden and Fazolli's. Ugh!

HI Debbie Reynolds - We have about 9 Italian restauants in Sedona and they are all good. No Olive Graden or Fazolli's!

Hi Patricia Feager - Culinary delights with unique presentation is her specialty. Fortunately 3 of her 4 restaurants are withing a 5 minute drive. The fourth is about 25 minutes away. She can easily spend time at all of them.

Hi Sheri,
Lisa definitely has a passion for food, and that's the kind of restaurant I love to patronize.  I envy people who grew up cooking and learning about food.  I grew up with an Aunt who loved to sew, so that's what we did.  Next time I visit Sedona, I'd love to experience one of Sedona's fine restaurants with you and your husband.

Absolutely Carol Williams - Enchantment Resort or Mariposa are my go to favorites for out of town guests. Top notch views and cusine are a dynamic and powerful combination.

Wow, Sheri, what a visual feast! And what fun to hear her talk about her life as a chef and her passion!

We've been to Dahl and DiLuca, and also Cucina Rustica, when visiting my Aunt who lives in Oak Creek.
