    My wife and I recently celebrated our anniversary at this beautiful restaurant located in the Scottsdale Fairmont. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the gorgeous ambiance and the friendly staff. Valet service is available (which the restaurant validates), and we enjoyed the short walk to La Hacienda. Our server was knowledgeable and provided excellent recommendations for both food and drinks. We started with the pomegranate guacamole, which was delicious and came with a generous portion of chips. I ordered a Roasted Beet Salad, but it didn't have very many beets, and the ones included were chopped into very tiny pieces. For our main course, I ordered the Carnitas Hacienda, a slow-roasted pork dish with a lot of flavor. My wife had the Filet a La Parilla, a perfectly grilled beef tenderloin served on two Oaxaca cheese enchiladas. She loved it; the meat was tender and bursting with flavor. To top it off, our server surprised us with a complimentary Mexican Chocolate Tart for our anniversary. It featured caramel mousse, a dark cocoa crispy layer, and sea salt ganache. It was the perfect ending to a wonderful meal. While some reviews mentioned average food, we found our dishes to be delicious and well-presented. We didn't order any drinks, so I can't speak to the cocktail options. The only minor downside was that the restaurant was a bit chilly inside. Overall, we had a fantastic experience at this restaurant. The combination of delicious food, beautiful ambiance, and attentive service made our anniversary celebration truly special. We highly recommend it and will definitely be returning for another visit soon!

    Felt a little ambushed by a Valentines Day Prix Fix menu priced sky high with limited selections and a comp glass of booze for us non drinkers. Food was great, service was great, credit card was assulted.

    Table side guacamole was perfect. Chips and salsa also wonderful and everything was freshly made as well as the margaritas. Beef fajitas were so delicious made with filet steak and the side sauces were a perfect compliment. Best Mexican food this Texan has had outside of San Antonio.

    All was great as usual. One issue was the server that served water to the table, handled all the glasses by the rims, where a person would drink from. During this time of the Norovirus, this was unsanitary.
