Sedona is known for its red rocks, but its restaurants are a big part of why guests fall in love with Red Rock Country. Whether you are planning a sunset date night, a birthday dinner, pizza night with the kids or a casual refuel after a long hike, this Sedona dining guide matches the best nearby restaurants to the kind of trip you are taking. Every pick is just minutes from Arabella Hotel Sedona on Highway 179.

Start at Arabella: Dining on Property

Every morning begins with our fresh hot breakfast buffet, included with every stay and served with gluten-free options. In the evening, Molé Mexican Kitchen serves scratch-made molé, homemade tortillas and handcrafted cocktails on a patio with Red Rock views. A few nights a week, our Sound Stage Sessions bring live music and local talent to the courtyard, with local beer and wine. Celebrating something? Add roses, cake or a bottle of bubbly from our in-room amenity packages.
