The food was amazing!! Every dish that we got was well worth it. Their French 75 was so good with the prickly pear. Staff was very friendly, waitress, busser, host. Wonderful experience!

Dinner food was good. Breakfast not great. Not sure why their prices are so high. Price gauging at its best.

I would have only given this a 1 1/2 star if this were an option. The views and service are the only reason that our dinner was somewhat enjoyable because the food was barely mediocre.The food was really disappointing and everything was seasoned with a ton of pepper and tasted similar. Overall I was unimpressed at the menu offering and the food was extremely overpriced for the quality of food that was served. I would highly recommend venturing offsite if you are staying at the Ritz or be prepared to be disappointed!

My husband and I ate here for the 5 course New Years Eve dinner. 4 of the courses were flat out awful. The only thing we enjoyed was the main course, we chose the Wagyu filet. Our server was nice but the professionalism was mediocre. No explanation as each course was delivered. $600 bill for something that should have cost $200. The food quality is equal to an all inclusive resort.

Ambience 5 stars definitely! Our views are amazing sitting looking at the mountains. Place is clean. Service was okay. Our server was slow and it Busy morning for brunch so it's acceptable. Came here for breakfast and initially was turned away at gate but we told the gate keeper we called in and they said it's open for public. So they let us in.I wasn't really impressed with the food. We had the chef's special at the buffet which was some nachos type and eggs benedict with salami not ham. The biscuits were dry and both were cold. The bacon was thick, but dry and chewy. The pastries were dry and not really great kind of like too commercial or those boxed kind you buy at the grocery store. The presentation was beautiful though. Breakfast was $40 plus tip. The only thing I liked was my omelette and fresh orange juice.

I had to review Core, a restaurant at the Ritz Carlton Dove Mountain because the food was really beautifully designed and super innovative! We had a three course meal and my partner and I shared a few items so I got to try many dishes off this menu! Here's what I got:1. Spring Harvest Salad- the cucumber cacao soil was so delicious and the teeny tiny vegetables in the dirt? Just above and beyond with the creativity!2. Mexican Street Corn Bisque- just wow, such a beautiful corn soup, never had anything like it!3. House Beet Chitarra- pretty good, unique beet colored noodles4. Caramel Peanut Cheesecake- tasty and I loved the salted caramel5. Razz-Chocolate Mousse- show-stopper! This one left me speechless! We really enjoyed this restaurant experience and highly recommend checking out Core if you're in Tucson, AZ!

This review is for breakfast only on Thursday, 12/22/22. We stayed at the Ritz, so we ate breakfast here out of convenience. I certainly wouldn't go out of my way to dine here. It's expensive (not surprisingly though - it is the Ritz, after all) and the food was okay. The service was stellar. Samarra was our waitress and she took great care of us! It was 50 degrees out and we ate outside. They have heaters. Highly recommend eating outside! The views of the mountains are just gorgeous.I got the Build Your Own Omelet ($30). You can put in any and all fillings listed, for no extra cost. The omelet was huge and tasted fine, but honestly, I've had better on cruises. The hash browns were like a latke and tasted good! The dressing on the greens was a little weird and the greens themselves were bitter. The toast was good.My husband got Egg Any Way ($29). The only difference between that and the BYO Omelet was that it came with 2 eggs and choice of protein. The price was outrageous.For breakfast, I would go out of convenience, but maybe I'd do the buffet next time ($38 normally, but they raise the price for Christmas and New Year's).

We have been to Core for our anniversary forthree years in a row. The food has remained delicious. Tonight's bill was the highest it's ever been for the same dishes we have gotten before. They no longer serve the steak with veggies they are now a la carte in spite of a more than $20 per steak increase from last year. Vegetables are now $16 per side. Our server dropped a large serving spoon on me when they brought our entrees. We each had a drink, we both had the corn chowder to start, we both got rib eyes and one side veggie each, brussel sprouts and asparagus. Dessert was an anniversary freebie. Our bill was around $360.00. The atmosphere was also different than the last two years - I do realize it's a restaurant in a resort but prior years people were at least dressed for dinner and didn't bring tons of screaming young children. Tonight was not a great experience but no fault of Core. Large families, plenty of shorts and t shirts. Definitely not a 28 year anniversary atmosphere. More like a Chilis or Olive Garden on a Friday. When we left we also had to pay for parking - it was never a charge before. It's new fee this past August 2023. So another additional $10 before our valet tip. Next year probably back to Flemings for us.

Breakfast here is fantastic and you can order off the menu or they have a buffet option. Freshly squeezed oJ is so good. We had a fabulous server, Trinity, both mornings who was absolutely a breath of fresh air. We only did one dinner here. The breaking of the bread presentation was so yummy and creative. Loved the Street corn soup-definitely recommend! Husbands tenderloin was over cooked but flavorful still. Their smoked Yukon mashed potato purée was stellar! Also the Lemon Cube for dessert was creative served with lime sorbet. Did not care for the jelly candies they brought with our bill but it was the thought.

Superb service, excellent food, and great view. One of our favorites in the Tucson area. We love the use of southwest/desert seasoning and quality food. Wine choices are excellent
