Food Scene
This is just a sampling of the hundreds of restaurants here in the valley. Due to Covid, we haven’t visited many of them for over a year. We do know many are short staffed, so we will ask for patience on their behalf. If you find a place that you love, let us know! If one of our recommendations don’t live up to your expectations, please let us know that as well. We also highly recommend reservations, especially for lunch and dinner.
