Limited menu and expensive. When we ordered at 7:15 they were already out if the only 2 fish entrees which is what our guests planned to order. The ambiance was also poor with table close together, loud and bright.

I did not expect to find such an upscale dining option in Flagstaff. The menu is creative. The food delicious and our server, Jesse, was fabulous. We enjoyed everything. Our only hiccup is the bartender got a little backed up when we reordered another round of drinks. Their roasted beet appetizer was the best I have had anywhere and the pappardelli pasta dish was amazing. We had an after dinner cocktail called "By Popular Demand". It is like an espresso martini in flavor but no espresso. We will be back and we are looking forward to it. The prices are high but so is the quality, the creativity and the altitude. :)

Our second time at Atria and it was excellent again. We sat at the chef's counter and were able to interact with the entire kitchen staff. Not only is the food and service wonderful but the presentation is amazing. We had appetizers and had ordered our entrees and then they presented us with another entree that they wanted us to try, at no cost. Atria has become the nicest restaurant in Flagstaff.

Met some old friends for dinner at Atria. We ordered the duck breast and a green salad. Salad was incredibly fresh. Duck beautifully prepared and a large portion size… Service was unhurried, attentive and professional. Lovely atmosphere..We will be back.

LOVED our dinner here! Great experience from start to finish. We were visiting on our babymoon and the bartender created two amazing mocktails! Our waiter was AMAZING and the food was incredibly fresh. We will absolutely be back again when we're in town!

We did the chef’s tasting menu and every course was excellent. We also did the wine pairing and thoroughly enjoyed that as well. From beginning to end this is one of the best meals that we’ve had. Chef Rochelle and her team are putting out amazing food. The entire staff was so welcoming and made us feel like we were old friends. We live on the East Coast and will definitely return to Atria when we are in Arizona. In fact, it was so good that Atria might be the reason we travel back to Arizona. If you are in the area this is a restaurant that you don’t want to miss out on.

We had very high expectations when we arrived, the ambience felt really good. Sad to say they messed up our appetizer order three times. Yes they comp’d the starters, but they also failed to tell me the man in course ‘special’ - branzino - was for more than one person and when it arrived it was huge. The upside was the food was great. More attention to service and informing guests on the menu is needed.

We visited Atria for a belated Mother's Day dinner. We eat at Flagstaff's restaurants fairly often, and are always interested in a new place. Briefly, the food was good, but the setting left much to be desired. My wife and I both had the Faroe Island salmon, ordered well-done. It was delicious and prepared exactly to our liking. However, we both thought some sort of greens would have made the dinner complete. Before the main course arrived, and accompanying our cocktails, we shared a half-dozen oysters on the half-shell. I was excited to see them on the menu. My wife, who is not an oyster lover, thought they were tasty. Unfortunately, that was the rub. The delicious lemon, ginger and lingonberry dressing overpowered that "Taste of the Sea" and dampened the treat for this long time oyster lover. The serious shortcoming was, by far, the setting. There are a few booths for larger parties, but in the main dining area, couples' tables are crammed together like those in a school cafeteria. There was no chance for an intimate dinner that night, and we had to share the dining experience with neighbors to the left and right. To top that, the ventilation system propelled a periodic breeze so cold and uncomfortable that my wife and I had to change seats. I was already wearing a sport jacket, and I noticed a guest nearby donned her puffy jacket to stay warm. To end on a positive note, the staff was friendly, table service was very good, and our courses were staged well. We will look forward to a second visit in hopes that management solves the physical problem.

Trying not to overwhelm the Tripadvisor system with just my opinion, as my family came for my daughter's and mother-in-law's birthday dinner in April and I was back again this last weekend with a group of friends having a happy hour after Kentucky Derby. Both were excellent. For the birthday meal, we generally paired off in teams and ordered the larger plates that are in fact meant for more than one person. I saw someone complaining about the branzino for $88 as a surprise. My son and I had it and shared it - it truly is a whole roasted fish that had great flavor and presentation. My parents shared the duck breast and I got to steal a bit or two - it was tender and cooked just right with great flavor. My wife and mother in law shared the rack of lamb as a special and it was also cooked perfectly. My daughter had the cacio e pepe with crab on it and loved it. My youngest daughter went to town on a bowl of steamed mussels, which she loves and has loved since about the age of 5. Great staff and great cocktails. For the happy hour, I had the duck ravioli to share with a friend - again the ravioli itself is excellent and the sauce of kale and pancetta with it puts it over the top. We had the main menu steak tartare - my only nitpick. The bar version I had recently came on a plank of toasted sourdough bread and was excellent. The version that comes with fries is more expensive and less rewarding. I would go with the sourdough every time. Again, great cocktails and great servers. Yes, this place is fine dining and is priced accordingly. If you remember that most of the big plates are intended for 2 people or more, the prices are even more reasonable.

Our experience was delightful; well-crafted cocktails, food prepared with care and a well-paced, attentive service combined to make a memorable meal. We took dessert to go and it was excellent the next day. Medium rare New Zealand venison was exceptional and the Faroe Island salmon was melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Sides and appetizers were imaginative and portions were plentiful. This is a well-run establishment that has a comfortable vibe without being elitist. A must in Flagstaff.

Truly a lovely dining experience. It’s quite obvious this restaurant is meticulous about the quality and uniqueness of their menus items. They celebrate food in a wonderful presentation and tasteful flavours. Enjoyed top notch service and a great selection of wine and champagne.
