Prado

We visited this restaurant for Arizona Restaurant Week and it did not disappoint!! The food was delicious; I had the bacon wrapped dates for my appetizer, the braised pork cheek for my main dish and I can't remember exactly what I had for dessert, something with pomegranate.Our waiter, Cade, was very friendly, efficient and professional.The setting was very nice with beautiful views. I highly recommend this restaurant.

The view from the patio, looking out to Camelback Mountain, is spectacular. Unfortunately, the dinner did not remotely live up to expectations and could only be described as a huge disappointment.In Spain, croquetas are vibrant, deep fried little balls of flavor, always fresh out of the oil. At Prado, the mushroom croquettes were dry, cold, and were quite obviously pre-made and sitting around waiting for a diner to order them. My wife ordered the Lomo, prime beef tenderloin and I had the Tajín Cordero, braised lamb shank. Both were tasteless, the tenderloin overdone, accompanied by similarly underwhelming vegetables. The cheesecake was fair, with lemony accents, although the various cheesecakes at Grimaldi's Pizza are far superior. They only offered two Rioja by the bottle off their pricey and limited wine list. They were out of the $62 one, which left an $80 bottle, if Rioja was your desire. Roughly 3x retail. In conclusion, for us, this was a one and done, expecting far more for a $300 splurge. One and a half stars for the view and a half star for the food.And if you've been to Spain, there's nothing Spanish about the experience.

Recommend: Yes!Food: Delicious! So good!Service: Very kindAmbiance: beautiful inside, they have arches, and a live musician playing his guitar. Great place for date night, celebration, birthdays. Price: reasonable for great food. My boyfriend and I came here for my birthday because I've been wanting to try this place out. What drawn me here was their paella. When we walked in, we had to walked down about half way through the restaurant to get greet the host. We ordered two tapas which was the octopus and an order of the lamb/beef tapa. The octopus was so good. I wish I had more of it. The beef/lamb tapa was something we just random picked to try. It wasn't my favorite. The lamb had a strong gamey flavor, but the beef was good. And of course the Valencia paella. I love seafood paella and this paella delivered. It had lots of seafood, great flavor, and great portion. I shared everything with my boyfriend. We also got a complimentary dessert because it was my birthday. I didn't expect that I could pick anything from the dessert menu. That was really nice that they did that. Some restaurants don't compliment the dessert and just give you their ice cream or something off menu. So I thought it was nice I had options. This place was romantic and it's definitely one of my top favorite spot. And I don't think the pricing wasn't too bad especially the food was amazing. I can't wait to come back here again.

Very cute place and not super busy. Came for brunch in a Sunday with girlfriends. They don't do Sunday revelations of brunch. Our server was really kind and well mannered. I love that this resort feels like you're in Italy with the music and decor. The Magdalena loaf was good, a little dry but the buttered jam was a great touch. The carnitas Benedict was delicious. If you sit on the patio, there are a lot of flies and at one point it was overwhelming. Thats the only reason I'm giving this review a 4. The food was great, server was excellent, we were able to walk right in but the flies were around the second the bread was placed. I will definitely come back and try dinner

Incredible dining experience - from service to food and ambience. Highlights included: Valencia and de verdura paellas, sea bass, gambas al ajillo (prawns), and Brussels sprouts.Special shout-out to the pastry chef who delivered a beyond expectations Taylor swift inspired birthday cake for a member of our party.

The food here exceeded my expectations. I was surprised at how tasty it all was. Everything we ordered was great. The service was great the servers were friendly and quick. The ambiance was perfect for a date night. They had live music and the noise level was perfect. You can converse at a good level without feeling like you need to raise your voice. Overall would I come back? I definitely plan on coming back sometime in the future. It is pricy but the ambiance and taste of the food make it worth the price.

I've dined at Prado a few times as well as their bar, "M Bar." The food was remarkable & the service was spectacular.The food presentation was stunning, but more than just "looking" creative, the flavor combinations, pairing of ingredients & balance of textures was brilliant. I kept thinking, "This is Michelin-level food." I later find out that the Executive Chef did come from France where he was a chef in Michelin star restaurants.The ambiance of Prado is elegant but comfortable with soft Spanish instrumental music and a staff that is gracious & upbeat. The server, Chris, recommended the perfect tapas, starters, and main dishes.If Spanish food isn't you top choice, there are so many choices on their menu that you would label All American or Italian. (*See photos.)"Albondigas" -meatballs on creamy polenta, tomato sauce with Jamón (like proscutto)"Vegan Seafood Pasta." -Pappardelle pasta & Spanish sofrito sauce (like Marinara sauce).I'd definitely have their Caesar salad with that.* "Hanger steak" - (Tender & more flavorful than Filet Mignon) with an orange Demi-glacé & "spring onion pistou" (Pesto). purple Pototo Mousselini (Purée) ceamy in texture & literal flavor* "Burrata & Heirloom Tomato Salad" - It's like an Italian Caprese Salad but so elevated!Their Filet Mignon is topped with a sauce called "Haron Whiskey au poive." (a cream sauce with a 12 yr old whiskey!)*PRADO burger. This is no ordinary bacon cheeseburger.Go for the Flatbread, if you're in the mood for "pizza." You can also sit right up by the fire-oven & dine. Caesar salad would be perfect with that also.The tapa "PATATAS BRAVAS" has 6 potato cubes (about 1.5" cubes) that are pan-fried (just like French Fondant potatoes, without the herbs, or Steakhouse fries) each with a slice of Chiorzo & topped with a dot of garlic aioli. Take the bite of each with some of the "Salmorra sauce" that's under them (which tastes like a slightly smokey, garlic tomato sauce) similar to Marinara sauce.Desserts: once again, elevated & not ordinary: Lemon Cheesecake with Bourbon Blueberries. "Crema Catalana" ... Crème Brūlée !

We stayed at the Omni over the weekend, and our room rate featured $30 per guest at Prado for breakfast. I wasn't sure about the reservation situation, so I made a reservation on Open Table for one of the last remaining morning reservations. When we arrived, there weren't very many occupied tables, so we were able to sit wherever we wanted. The server assured they would check us in on Open Table, but I got an email asking why I no-showed my reservation. I had to go through the process of getting that fixed later that day. The menu is fairly short and has a good variety of dishes for breakfast - we were there just a few mins before the brunch menu started. We opted to share the huevos rancheros, French toast, and fresh fruit plate. The huevos rancheros were amazing!!! Extremely flavorful without being overly spicy. The French toast was lovely - the blueberry compote and orange cream were nice touches - I didn't even need to use the syrup. The fresh fruit plate was the perfect accompaniment to our meal. There were a variety of fruits and we felt it was worth the price tag. We definitely enjoyed our meals and would return. Service was sub-par. We waited about 10 minutes to be given menus or to be approached by a server, and then waited about 15 after our meals were finished to get the check. Our server never checked in on us at all. We were also a little frustrated getting different answers on how to use our room credit for the meal - it never showed up on our folio before checkout, so we're still waiting to see what comes through on the credit card. Be aware of that for sure!

Absolutely delicious! Each item we ordered tasted so good. The chicken was tender and couscous was flavorful. The lomo was cooked to perfection. Pulpo was smoky. It was not spongy. So good. We ordered the bread with orange marmalade and black salted whipped butter. Prado served one of the best dinners my husband and I have ever had. Highly recommend Prado!

We made a reservation through open table to celebrate a friend's birthday, as she loves this restaurant. The atmosphere is calming and has a luxurious feel to it. The views of camelback mountain are wonderful! The Service staff are very well trained, kind and polite. The restaurant will mark your tickets so that you don't have to pay for parking while you're . During dinner, they were attentive and quick to respond to our needs. The restaurant is definitely a "hotel" restaurant; meaning emphasis is put on service decor and comfort. For my meal, I had an appetizer -the calamari frittata(?). Basically fried calamari some shrimp and mussels with a dipping sauce on the side. It was served on a bit of greens. It was flavorless, the seafood was chewy and it was greasy at $20 for the appetizer. We also had their bread for seven dollars that came with Creamy butter with poppyseeds and a delicious marmalade to put on top. The bread was delicious. Though for me, It was overpriced and I believe bread should be free with dinner, especially for the price that you're paying for their food selection. For my salad choice I had the burrata with tomatoes and that was $22 and the amount of burrata was About a tablespoon and a half and the tomatoes were mushy and old. They did provide a nice helping of greens. For the most part, the entire dish was very disappointing for the price, quantity and the quality of the tomatoes. Carrabba's burrata appetizer beats this hands-down, with a fistful of burrata and freshly seasoned grape tomatoes with balsamic and basil, in addition to delicious warm bread that they provide for free! $16. For my main dish, I had their seafood paella. Extremely disappointing. The seafood was not fresh. It was frozen and tasted as if all the seafood was soaked in salt. My dish had three mussels, three clams a couple of shrimp, a nice helping of bay scallops, a piece of fish and one cherry pepper. The seasoning of the rice was good. However, most of the bottom portion of my rice was stuck to my dish that they cooked it in so a portion of it was a bit-I don't know how to describe it -not mushy, but not hard just not well prepared for a $48 price tag. I am told that their meat paella is much better. (Fyi paella is very much like a Byriani from Indian food.) Lastly, for dessert, we had the bread pudding and the almond torte. The almond torte was absolutely fantastic and the bread pudding-It was good, but if you didn't have the ice cream and the toppings to go with it, it was quite dry. Their coffee and expresso was very good and fresh. Furthermore, I'd like to give a positive shout out to service and the restaurant manager. A very nice, handsome and friendly manager that graciously welcomed us and comp'd our bread at the table and a birthday dessert. It was a nice evening and setting is wonderful, but don't go here for quality delicious food that's worth its price, because what you're paying for is location , service and decor.
