Food Scene
Southern mexico meet the bold, farm-fresh flavors of the American Southwest. Elote has fantastic food and cocktails. and is one of my favorite restaurants. Be prepared to drop a pretty penny if you go to Elote but it is well worth it. The only con of this restaurant is they do not take reservations and unless you get there pretty early it can be a long wait.

This place is known for being the best Gluten Free Restaurant! Though I can eat gluten - I like their gluten/vegan pizza crust more than their traditional option. Absolutely the best place for a good salad too. The chopped wedge is my favorite. They also make their own super garlicy caesar dressing which is amazing. My favorite entree to order other than the pizza is the Gluten Free Truffle Mac and Cheese.

Great food and cocktails and if you sit on the back patio there is a view of oak creek. They are known for their breakfast and Brunch. My favorite dish to get there for breakfast is either the Sonoran Breakfast Burrito or the Eggs Benedict. Dinner is excellent as well. If you are trying to be budget conscious- They have the best Happy Hour Menu and Cocktails from 3:30 to 6.pm

This is the only restaurant that delivers in Sedona besides a few pizza places. The food is consitantly tasty, the delivery is fast and the portions are generous and I don't believe they use MSG. They also have a sushi menu. The sushi is very good - though I would say it is not traditional sushi- more americanized. The restaurant is also enjoyable to eat at if you choose too. It is always bustling and busy and the service is fast as well. Price is middle of the road - However their lunch specials are very budget friendly.

They are known for excellent steaks that have been aged. However, I enjoy their starters just as much. I did notice a couple times that their food seemed a bit on the salty side - so that is something to keep in mind if you are sensitive to that. What I enjoy most about this restaurant is the sheik decor and beatiful views from their terrace. It is a great place to go as a couple and get a booth - or with groups. They have a 4 sided bar that is happening during happy hour from 3pm to 6pm. My favorite

Down to earth Italian food with a flair. Middle of the road pricing- Excellent Calamari and they make their own mozzarella. Big portions and thoughtful presentation. Nice wine and cocktails, friendly staff and their patio is beautiful. They can get pretty busy later in the week and it is a good idea to make a reservation.

Very large yummy sandwiches at a reasonable price. They bake their own bread daily which is in part what makes the sandwiches so good! They are open 10:30am to 2pm Monday thru Friday. Sometimes they run out of some of the bread and sandwich options by 12:30 or 1pm as they are very popular and busy. My favorite is the chicken salad with cashews on herb bread. They bake fresh homemade cookies daily as well.

Relics has the best Prime Rib in Town - The decor and low ceilings make the front part of the restaurant a little claustrophobic. This is a historic building with a lot of history and it is haunted. The best time to go is when they open the back room for music. Concert Guitarist Anthony Mazzella plays there on either Fridays or Saturdays and it is always a treat. - Anthony's show starts at 7 pm with a romantic set of Spanish Guitar. At 8 pm, Anthony will then play a set of his original acoustic finger-style music which will feature music from his CD’s Heavenly Guitar, Unity and Ritual.

Upscale Music Venue/Restaurant - Extensive Wine list and the food and cocktails are good though quite overpriced in my opinion. This place caters to tourists and isn't concerned with attracting local clientele. Be prepared to drop some serious cash unless you stick to the appetizers. It is a beautiful large restaurant with grand views from the patios and does have great music.

This spiritual citadel on a hill is one e of Sedona's earliest landmarks is also one of its most endearing — the Chapel of the Holy Cross, where people of all denominations come to offer their prayers, supplications, and praises--and to marvel at the building's distinctive architecture and the panoramic vistas from its site.

Jerome is coined “America’s Most Vertical City” and “Largest Ghost Town in America”. One of my favorite places to go shopping for the day and to hear music at night. Jerome is up in the mountains overlooking the Verde Valley. It is a little over 30 minutes away depending on traffic and is definitely worth visiting if you have time while you are here. A Historic Copper mining town, that became a ghost town and now has great shops, galleries, restaurants, haunted tours, wineries, art walks, music and more! Jerome has so much history that I suggest you go to the website : http://www.azjerome.com/jerome/

Parks & Nature
Beautiful park and the perfect place to enjoy the red rocks and Oak Creek! Warning: Wading in Oak Creek is probably safe enough. However, I would NOT recommend swimming. I spent every summer as a child like a fish in Oak Creek and I so wish it was as clean now as it was then. Sadly, though it looks pristine, the water is not safe to drink or get in your mouth. Something like 300,000 people a year visit Oak Creek and especially after it rains - It may have parasites, E-Coli or Giardia. If you do ingest some - Take a shot of Apple Cider Vinegar ASAP.=)

A must-visit place for spiritual seekers the world over, and since 2004, visitors of all faiths have been flocking to Sedona’s Amitabha Stupa. Sitting majestically among the pinion and juniper pines, and surrounded by a landscape of stunning crimson spires, it is a jewel to behold. A short trek up winding trails brings you to the 36 foot Amitabha Stupa and the smaller Tara Stupa for prayer, meditation, healing, and the experience of peace in a sacred place. The Amitabha Stupa is open every day from dawn until dusk. The park is free to visit though donations to support the stupa are gratefully accepted.

This place is really beautiful and special and totally worth visiting. I would say though - as fun as it looks - I would NOT go swimming. I wish the Oak Creek was as clean as when I was a child but something like 300,000 people a year visit Oak Creek and unfortunately there are periods especially after it rains where the creek gets polluted and may have parasites, E-Coli or Giardia.
