This is my first dining experience at Azul and the food was very decent for a resort restaurant. The menu were all decently priced.

Granted it was Christmas when we ate, but pretty disappointed. Not that it was bad, just really meh, and certainly not worth the price.

Arrived here Friday night to dine with a friend, and what a treat! Excellent atmosphere. Excellent service. Excellent food. I haven’t enjoyed a meal like this since an anniversary dinner at Jano’s. Albeit, the company was outstanding, but everything about the Westin makes enjoying time with friends, that much richer. Thanks to the Westin, for an amazing evening, and to my friend Helen.

Great service from Dani! She was so nice, and took the time to get to know us! My girlfriend took me here for my birthday dinner last night. I had the pappardelli pasta with chicken and lots of delicious veggies on it! A nice glass of white wine, the rolls were ok, and I got a free triple chocolate desert! Denise had the salmon which looked so thick and juicy! The view was beautiful, and it was quiet and relaxing. The best! There were quite a few things on the menu that sounded great, and it was difficult for me to choose. Very nice experience!

As part of my review for the Westin La Paloma, as a whole, I had to credit Ramon at Azul for sharing his pictures from the recent fire in the mountains. Freaking amazing! As Angeleno tourists that knew nothing about this fire, he really made the night and had us staring at the mountains in awe. Cool guy. On to the food: The free range chicken was divine. Fellow Unilocaler JL always teases me about ordering chicken at a restaurant, but I always say that making a truly remarkable chicken is a sign of a great chef. It can go so wrong and oh so right. Glad to say, Azul made it right. Perfectly seared skin and juicy. The calamari was also fantastic. So nice, we ordered it twice in two days. The fig and mission burrata were also good. Almost too good, that we practically were full before the meal came. The cilantro lime shrimp salad was nice, but not as nice as the chicken. Overall, great time, romantic setting, juicy chicken. What a brilliant time!

We’ve had breakfast at Azul several times and always enjoyed it. Last night was our first dinner experience at Azul. The environment is very nice and the presentation good. What was lacking was flavor. My scallops had a strange off putting chemical flavor and my wife’s pasta dish was bland and flavorless.

I’ve eaten here once before during a previous Westin stay and was not impressed. All I remember was the ceviche definitely left something to be desired. However, I believe Azul makes the food for room service at the Westin, and my most recent meal was delish. If my assumptions on the room service are correct, the breakfast was perfectly made. I requested 2 poached eggs, wheat toast, and sausage. The sausage was a tad greasy, but it had a nice snap and good flavor. For dinner I ordered a glass of Washington chardonnay, the market salad, and the shrimp ravioli(quattro formaggio). The market salad had beets, carrots, pistachios, and some fancy greens over a horseradish cream. The cream was INTENSE and delicious. I loved the salad! The ravioli was supposed to come with 3 giant shrimp, but instead came with 7LARGE shrimp — yay! There was a perfect amount of broccolini/roasted grape tomatoes/mushrooms, and the sage butter is to die for. Do note that you should NOT eat the sage… I don’t think I’ve ever cooked with sage nor remember specifically having sage… but it’s INTENSE by itself. Don’t eat the sage lol. I did respect that they weren’t just button mushrooms, but also some fancy ones thrown in. I would order dinner again!

First of all, the food was fantastic. The service was awful. We had a glass of wine and an appetizer each… it took an hour and a half to get in and out. The restaurant wasn’t busy. The wait staff was emotionless and unenthusiastic. We were there for 20 minutes before we were poured water… he mumbled something incoherent; another 20 before our waiter came by. After an hour the bread came and two minutes later the food. When we were finished the busboy simply took our plates without saying anything.

My filet mignon was great my salad was terrible. Service was super slow for us. But we sat near a larger party that came after we did and left before we did. For a $ 100 meal for two adults and a 2 year old. I was not impressed.

I was impressed with the resort and its amenities, however the food was not the best. The pork chop was dry as the ground outside. For the price you would expect more out of the food. The server didn’t ask how our food was nor did he check on us enough. When I return next year I would not get food there.

The restaurant is in the Westin La Paloma hotel There is a lounge near the entrance and the restaurant is downstairs. Both have a wonderful view of the Catalina Mountains. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor patio seating. The menu is not large-two kinds of steak, chicken, pork chop, lasagne and scallops. They offer a tasting menu where you have a choice of two entrees and either a 2 or 3 course meal. The«cottonwood» is $ 55.00 for 3 courses including your choice of filet mignon or NY steak so is a pretty good deal. The organic chicken was a good meal-chicken was tender and sauce was tasty-came with 2 pieces of chicken. Service was very good.

Weary travelers we were. The bartender was on point and she set us straight after a looong drive from Scottsdale. They have this incredible outside patio with heated water fountain thing!. Ensure you arrive well before sunset to watch the light against the hills. We returned later for a cocktail and our server Kimberlee was the most delightful person we have met on this trip. It’s so nice to have a friendly face who takes the time.

Had dinner here last Monday with family and friends. Overall the experience was good. The guacamole appetizer was generous but needed some salt. Service was also good but for a Monday night, it was probably on the slow side. It was cold outside so we didn’t enjoy the scenery that others have mentioned. I had the grilled pork chop and it was done nicely. Good portion and cooked nicely… It went well with the carrot purée. Based on what others were saying about their meals, it was good but not great. Would probably come back on a warmer night to sit outside and enjoy the scenery.

Very attentive and wine knowledgable server. She recommended the filet and it didn’t disappoint. Rubbed with spices and topped with jalapeño, jicama slaw. She was happy to sub the mash for some veggies. Pared with a nice cab. Not too shabby for a hotel restaurant.

On Friday evening I attended a charity event at the La Paloma. It was in the ballroom so close to Azuls bar. My boyfriend and I figured we would wander down there to grab a couple of drinks since the ambiance was quite appealing. The bar was busy but not to the point service should have been poor. Especially with two bartenders. The only reason I give two stars rather than one is because the male bartender seemed to be working quite hard and had a positive demeanor. On the other hand, the woman was absolutely awful. She was an older lady and beyond rude. The woman couldn’t handling making more than a couple simple drinks at a time. I realized this since I heard a man order a double whiskey rocks, a vodka tonic, and a corona. I was standing next to him so I asked for a xx lager and corona, thinking it would save her time grabbing three beers at once rather than making multiple trips. Her response was«Shhh! Shhh!!» As she put her hand out at me motioning to stop. Needless to say I turned around and left the bar. I haven’t been treated so poorly at a nice resort let alone any restaurant bar. I think it goes unsaid that I will not be returning to this establishment again.

A much better-than-average hotel restaurant. Always a little hesitant to try them, but the food(the little I had) and service were both great. Had the three sisters salad and it was VERYTASTY! Not sure how healthy it was(the main reason for ordering a salad for me) but it had great/interesting flavors, a light dressing, good crunch, and lots of freshness. Nice wine list and good selection of drinks. Had the Washington Chte Michelle Cabernet Sauvignon and it was outstanding(at 11 a glass– not too bad). Complimentary bread was brought to the table which was warm, fresh and sinfully delectable. Overall a great choice.

On my last visit to the Westin La Paloma, I made my way to the AZuL bar for a late night snack. The cool, electric blue lights pull you in, and beckon you to «come hither.» I was well satisfied with a tasty Farmer’s Market Salad featuring fresh arugula, carrots, and avocado. I opted for the calamari appetizer, as well(as I often do, if I see it on a menu). It was fair, but not the best I’ve ever encountered. Even if I didn’t enjoy the food, I would stop by just for the cocktails and the view. They have several clever & creative martini choices here. The ‘Royal Blue’(crafted with acai blueberry vodka, Chambord, Cointreau, and cranberry), sent me off to bed with sweet dreams. The next day, my crew and I sat in the spacious lounge area, soaking up the gorgeous Tucson views. I have yet to try the full restaurant. We just wanted to nibble on a few apps, so I selected the fries with black and white truffle aioli, and the antipasti plate with burrata, prosciutto, nectarines, & aged balsamic. I also decided to take a chance on the calamari again. The fries and antipasti were quite good, but the calamari seemed even more lackluster this time. It is described as pecan crusted(although it appeared most of pecans were on the plate vs. on the calamari) with an avocado poblano crema and chile de arbol salsa. It is a stellar concept, just not executed very well on these 2 occasions. My delightful ‘Pear with a Punch’ martini(pear vodka, Pama, sweet & sour) soothed any minor quibbles I had with the calamari, though. I’m sure I will make my way back to AZuL bar & lounge again soon. I think it’s a fab«date» or «girls/guys night out» spot.

5 Star View and Setting for Breakfast, but 3 Star Food and Service… the view was stunning on the patio overlooking the pool and the mountains. The breakfast buffet was good, but nothing extraordinary. Service was slow, but very friendly!

Oh my, this was a delight. Especially after reading some of the reviews. We were seated immediately, had service immediately and were continually being pampered and served immediately. Krista was our server, she was very attentive and took care of our every dining need. We ordered champagne as we were celebrating our 17th anniversary. She asked if we were celebrating a special event or was it just a champagne type night. We shared with her it was our anniversary. She immediately said it would be their pleasure to comp us dessert. We shared a Caesar salad, it was an average salad, I’m glad we shared it because it was alot of salad. Then we both ordered provençale dijon crusted rack of lamb. Our sides were fresh grilled asparagus and baked cauliflower gratin. Every item was delectable! I couldn’t find anything to fault them. They made our anniversary so very special and a wonderful experience. Not only was the meal delicious, but the dessert they served was served on a plate that said Happy Anniversary! To top this all off we had a coupon for $ 25 off, which even made our evening sweeter than sweet! I totally recommend this restaurant to anyone celebrating a special event or just to have a delectable dining experience.

Disappointment! =/ My boyfriend and I stayed at the Westin resort so we wanted to try this restaurant that was there. We also had a gift certificate that we wanted to use so we ended up eating here for our anniversary dinner. I can’t believe how disappointing it was. We ordered the calamari to start which I thought was a bit salty and I’ve never had calamari that was topped with greens before. lol. For the entrée I ordered the Salmon while my boyfriend ordered the Pork Chop. My Salmon was tiny and was not anything great at all. I’ve definitely had better. I think the most disappointing part was that the food was just ok, but it was about $ 25 a plate with NO sides. Each additional side would be $ 7. The only good thing I would say was the the customer service was excellent. My glass was always filled and everyone was extremely friendly. Other than that, I wouldn’t come back for $ 25 a plate for just«ok» food.
