Restaurants near Lake Montezuma

“Such a charming little gem! Rimrock Coffee Company is a must-visit if you're passing through on your way to the Grand Canyon, Sedona, or any nearby destination. It’s a cozy, welcoming spot that truly supports the local community. The owner, Solana, is incredibly warm and friendly—often seen with her kids and family, all adding to the heartwarming vibe of the place. She’s clearly a woman with a plan, always championing local artists and creators, and her passion shines through in every corner of the shop. I had the Avocado Open Toast, and it was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly done. The menu is thoughtfully curated, offering everything from espresso and teas to bagels, pastries, and breakfast plates, plenty of comforting options whether you're in a rush or want to sit and soak in the atmosphere. Stop by and experience it for yourself. Whether you're a local or just passing through, Rimrock Coffee Company is the kind of place that makes you want to come back.”

“One of the best restaurants I’ve been to in many years. Fun atmosphere, great food and really friendly staff. 100%recommend!!!”

“🥰Great Food... always fresh, tasty, and healthy servings. Great Service and Awsome Margaritas.”

“This restaurant is by far my favorite breakfast place I have ever tried. I am so glad we found this place! The food was phenomenal and the restaurant was so cute! Their apple cider is the best I have ever had. I ordered the lemon ricotta waffles and they were so good! The service was great and they were so friendly. 10/10 and would highly recommend!!!”

“We've stopped here several times on our way to Sedona. Great food, quick service and friendly staff.”

“Was very surprised at how delicious the food was, very different menu which was great, so nice to find a pleasant atmosphere, and they have an outside patio that I can bring my dog with me next time, would highly recommend!!”

“A wonderful place for a Sunday afternoon.”

“The fry bread was made to order, and was hot and delicious. Weekday options include cinnamon sugar, powdered sugar, honey, and salt. On the weekends they also offer beans and cheese, and Indian tacos. Each fry bread fills the paper plate on which it is served. Each is large enough to share, but you won’t want to.”

“The BEST Bakery! Love cinnamon rolls, garlic sourdough bread, quiche, pastries, muffins, chocolate chip cookies, salads, Colette breakfast sandwich, Basil Chicken Focaccia sandwich, and Saturday biscuits & gravy! DELICIOUS ❤️”

“We stopped first day because of location to our hotel. We went back for breakfast second day because of food and service. The food was fresh and delicious. The restaurant was clean and the staff were excellent. If in the area I highly recommend going for breakfast”

“Excellent burgers and friendly service. As the sign states basically that each order is made fresh to order, so this isn't your typical fast food joint. This is a fabulous place. If you are in Cornville, Verde Valley area check this place out, it's super good!”

“Great food, wonderful people working there, excellent margaritas! One of the best Mexican food restaurants I've been to!”

“Such a beautiful quaint atmosphere. We had the privilege of meeting this mother/daughter duo who put customer service and quality first. My husband and I were driving through, saw the sign and decided to stop. A decision I will never regret. Thank you for making us feel welcome in your small town! The local red wine flight was such a delight and they made us Togo charcuterie boards that we could enjoy back at our resort while we spend the evening in the hot tub! Don’t pass up the opportunity to check this place out!”

“Found this brewery by mistake on our way to Sedona. Highly recommend it. The beer was great all of them that we tried. The belgian strong was our favorite. The beertender was nice and welcoming. This was our 290th brewery we have visited.”

“Excellent Homemade food. Staff was happy friendly and very helpful”

“Absolutely the best pizza in a 20 mile radius. Local, independent, family owned,. Mark and his son Blake are very serious about making authentic, delicious food. Five star quality for three star prices..”

“The view was good, service was good, food and drinks were fairly expensive.

And they ask you which kind of toast you’d like with your omelette, as if it’s part of the meal, to only later let you know it’s an up charge.”

“Years ago we discovered Moscato’s Restaurant. Being Italian, but never had the privilege of going to that beautiful country, I can only tell you how my Italian family cooked and this I know for sure: Moscato’s Chef creates dishes that are authentically rich with fresh herbs, olive oils and delicious tomato sauces. Just like my my family’s creations from their home towns. Not to mention other creations presented with a flare of beauty! Sorry for those that gave derogatory reviews. That’s what prompted me to write. Yes, it is a special occasion when we go, at lunchtime, and savor the artistic dishes. It is a taste of Italian cuisine, , maybe even better, my Italian friend , who travels to Italy, confided to me. See for yourself.”

“The staff were nice but didn't really interact much with our group. We walked in, had our wine, and left. The number of wines that you could taste was very limited. However, you were able to choose five to try and the pour amount was good. The place was small, but they did what they could. This wouldn't be a stop on my next trip to Arizona. There wasn't much to do outside. I wish that we got to interact with the staff and learn more about the area and the wine.”

“Underlying Divine is one of the best places to stop in the Verde Valley for food and a friendly smile. The portions are generous and made with fresh ingredients. While many small independent restaurants closed their doors permanently during and after covid, this establishment persevered and is worthy if your support!”

“Best Mexican food in Camp Verde, hands down! I highly recommend it to anyone! The staff is friendly and the food is fantastic! I love the Green Chile enchilada & the pork tamale! Stop reading and go…”

“One of yhe best pizzas we have ever eaten! Great crust, exceptional cheese, delicious toppings and friendly service.”

“Not only is the ice cream superb, but the service is even better. While visiting one evening my husband dropped my drivers license. We messaged them the next day and they responded within 6 minutes of opening. We highly recommend them! Thanks again!”

“Been here many times for Lunch/Dinner! Mario and his team are state of the art service! Very recommended 👌”

“What a find!! We were driving from Grand Canyon down to Phoenix and googled places to eat. We were near Rimrock and Thai Garden popped up. We love Thai food, so we took a chance. I’m so glad we did!! The food was delicious and had a true Thai home-made quality and taste. I highly recommend this sweet gem of a restaurant!”

“We have been coming to Lisa Dahl's restaurants for 19 years. We came to celebrate our 19 year anniversary. We sat at the bar and were served by Matt, Tristan and Ed - all excellent and attentive. The salad was awesome, the artichoke fritters were excellent and the lasagna and EGGPLANT PARM were phenomenal! Then to top it all off, as we were leaving we got to meet Lisa Dahl, shake her hand and tell her how much we have enjoyed her restaurants all these years. We also have her cookbook. A wonderful experience.”

“Outstanding tacos and fry bread. It was so good, and an east stop off the road. I only wish we had an extra stomach for more food. It’s great food served up with good humor—check em out!”

“Seriously the cleanest bar I've ever been in. When you go into a bar that's clean and they have stuff on the wall there's some dust. Absolutely none and bathrooms are spotless. The bartender Laura was amazing and super friendly. We would come back just for her.”

“Friendly staff, delicious food, great atmosphere - and all at a fair cost. Great experience with the servers/bartenders and the food feels practically homemade and delicious. 10/10 if you’re in the area, it’s a must-stop!”
