a note from the hotel

Each dish begins with the finest ingredients, carefully selected to highlight bold flavors and elevate traditional techniques.

We incorporate imported chiles into all of our smoked meats, layering depth and heat with expert precision.

Whether it's our unique hot and cold smoked cuts or the Sonoran Mexican section of our menu, where gourmet-level Mexican cuisine is combined with precisely dosed capsaicin infusions, each dish is a testament to our dedication to smoke, spice and sophistication.

Complement your meal with our wide selection of international wines, expertly paired to balance the richness of our smoky flavors.

At THErestaurant, every bite is an experience, rooted in tradition, made with passion and finished with just the right amount of fire.
