We were staying at the Arizona Biltmore and I wanted to celebrate my husband's birthday at a restaurant. I was able to make a reservation at Renata's Hearth. We had a warm greeting from the hostess stand and were seated promptly at our reservation time. The restaurant gives off a warm and cozy vibe with indoor and outdoor seating. The menu is two pages offering some dishes served family style. We decided to share all our dishes. Our waitress was friendly and offered great suggestions. Food came out quick and was delicious. A great spot to celebrate a special occasion. read more

Flautas are one of my favorite things. They have potato flautas with cabbage. 3 of them without any sides for $36. They are unseasoned and the red pepper sauce is lacking in flavor. The entire restaurant seems void of cilantro which I know is a love or hate ingredient, but is a staple in Hispanic dishes. Everything from guacamole to the flautas needed it. Guacamole was delicious, but expensive for what you get ($19). As a vegan, you are VERY limited in what you can order. Guacamole and two salads without cheese and the potato flautas without cheese. Very meh. We only ate here because we were staying at the hotel and assuming beans and vegetables would be plentiful in the dishes. Wrong. We left hungry. Service was very good though. Matthew was our server. We had come here for a birthday and were seated at a small two top in a very busy area. It wasn't relaxing, intimate, or enjoyable. So many other good places to dine in Phoenix. One and done for me. read more

My boyfriend and I seriously loved this dining experience. From the service to the food, absolutely exceptional. We couldn't have asked for a better celebration dinner. We were greeted with a smile from our wonderful server, Drea and from there we were just wowed. Brian was incredible with the wine knowledge and sold us a beautiful Sancerre. The food was amazing, the team service was cohesive, the attention to detail was there. When my boyfriend went to the bathroom Brian folded his napkin and placed it on his plate, the kind of service that makes the food taste better. So grateful for the staff, they curated an experience that will draw us back again soon. (Oh, and the lamb was wonderful too) read more

Love this place. We have been here twice and each time we leave saying " I think this is my favorite restaurant". The vibe inside is really nice, the food and drinks are great.

Located inside the beautiful Arizona Biltmore hotel, Renatas Hearth delivers an unforgettable dining experience. The food and ambiance are absolutely incredible and this was easily a highlight of my trip to Phoenix. Everything was cooked to perfection. I highly recommend the octopus and scallop, both dishes were stunning to look at and even better to eat. Each bite was packed with flavor, and it is clear that every dish is thoughtfully curated and carefully executed. The service was professional yet comforting. The staff clearly knows the menu well and works seamlessly together, which adds to the overall experience. The lighting is dim, but it perfectly sets the mood, feeling elegant while still maintaining a warm, almost rustic charm. They offer live music on select evenings, so I recommend visiting on a Friday or Saturday if that is something you enjoy. There is also beautiful indoor and outdoor seating available, making this a wonderful spot for both a relaxed evening or a special occasion. read more

Food and service was pretty good! BUT, the prices are a bit insane. $18 for house wine? I recognize it's in the Biltmore resort but it wasn't Michelin rated food either! We ordered the wagyu brisket and to be honest it was a bit over salted and dry. The ceviche was super delicious but tiny portion and $33! Not sure we'd be back. read more

The Wagyu beef brisket was AMAZING. The service: excellent, knowing the deep history of the Biltmore and the restaurant. The polenta: excellent. Nice quiet restaurant tucked into the corner of an amazing hotel. The Waygu is worth every penny (and it cost a lot of no-longer-accepted Pennie's). Having tasted wagyu prepared in many places, this place tops them all. OMG. Come try it and then reply to me. I dare you to disagree. Wow. read more

We stayed at the Arizona Biltmore for my birthday trip and came here at one point during the trip (it's within the hotel) for a bit upper scale dining! Beautiful decor, lush and dim lighting, it's a vibe! I ordered the octopus as my appetizer and the chicken option for dinner and both were delicious. I knocked off one star because the cocktails are strong as hell lols if you prefer strong drinks then no problem but for me I like a combo of bitter and sweet and I feel like a good balance between the two couldn't be figured out so I just went with water at one point for the rest of my dinner lols. read more

For our 3 course meal at Renatta I had the: First course Ceviche- I found the juxtaposition of the traditional sourness of ceviche and smokiness that is more akin to a curry spice from pimenton oil to be interesting and paired well together Second course-Octopus: the octopus was cooked well and had a snappiness when you bite into it and the light tomatoe soup was a nice subtle compliment to the dish. Third course: Wagyu Brisket does taste like a Texas brisket style, very tender and pulled apart easily. The waitress alerted me that this was their specialty, and although the quality was good, my friends and I found that it was a bit too salty and dry. Using minimal ingredients to allow a quality meat to shine on its own is great but I think the flavor could be enhanced. The interior reminded me of a dining hall. service and attention from staff was noted; adding to the experience positively. Their Smokey chips appetizer were also delicious Overall, I would recommend Renata's. read more

I expected more for the price. I made reservations a week in advance and yet it somehow glitched and they didn't see my reservation on file, although I had marked anniversary as the reason for the visit, they put us in a corner near the traffic area of inside/outside and register. Service was good, no complaints there. The food was so lackluster. The octopus was so small and didn't have anything special about it. The $70 brisket was 5-6 slices of brisket and while it was good, it was so salty it was difficult to eat. The desserts were pretty good, probably my favorite part of the meal. For a $255 dinner for two, I feel like it left a lot to be desired read more

The vibe here is amazing and the patio seating is worth it! I also appreciate the service, we were in a quiet corner but still were well taken care of. We had the mole enchiladas and sea bass & crab ceviche which was so flavorful and then the panna cotta and cheesecake for dessert. I loved that the panna cotta was topped with meringue and croutons it added such a nice texture difference to the panna cotta. This was a nice place for a special occasion! read more

Renata's is a beautiful restaurant inside the Arizona Biltmore - it's all dimly lit with candle lighting on each table. It's very beautiful. However, our dining experience wasn't the smoothest - it could have been because we had a larger party, but I'm not sure. We went with their Summer Prix-Fix Menu, which was $65 a person for a 3 course meal. Unfortunately our first course and our second courses came out at the exact same time and then it took a long time for the 3rd course to come out and it didn't all come out together. I went with the Tetela, which was spicy and delicious for my first course and my second course was an Aji Amarillo Melon Salad with was both sweet and spicy and was my favorite part of the whole meal. I would have been happier had I just had the salad. For my third course I went with beef and it was just a bit dry which was pretty disappointing read more

Renata's Hearth at the Arizona Biltmore is a stunning space with a warm ambiance and beautifully presented food, but unfortunately, it falls into the category of overpriced rather than just expensive. We visited for dinner but, after reviewing the menu, decided to stick with just a couple of appetizers and dine elsewhere. The prices were shockingly high--even for a high-end resort--and didn't seem justified based on the offerings. That said, the dishes we tried were flavorful and artfully plated, as seen in the photos. The ceviche was bright and refreshing, and the crab dish had a lovely balance of textures, but neither felt like they warranted the price tag. The setting is lovely, with a cozy, upscale feel fitting for the Biltmore. Service was professional and friendly, but for the cost, we expected a more memorable dining experience. While I wouldn't write it off entirely, I'd only recommend it if price isn't a concern, or if you're just stopping in for a drink and a light bite. Otherwise, Phoenix has plenty of incredible dining options at much better value. read more

If you have the cash to eat here, do it. We just had the best meal of our lives last night during restaurant week. The wagyu beef dish with peppers was phenomenal. The meat just melts in your mouth. It's so well cooked. The guacamole and chips, usually an average dish, was also delectible. The salad and tetela was great. There was absolutely nothing I didn't love. The service at Renata's was terrific and attentive. The waiter, the waiter's assistant and busboy were all attentive, respectful and lovely young men. And of course, what can be said about the ambiance of the Arizona Biltmore? It's the best. It was a wonderful evening which we hope to repeat sometime soon. read more

It's alright. Located in the Arizona Biltmore. It looks great and has a nice atmosphere. Service was on point and attentive. We went with our waiter's suggestions as far as food. First off, I got the El Matador drink. Was not my thing. A little too tart and sweet for me. We got the guac app (good), the tetelas (blah), and the ceviche (very good). Ordered the brisket as the main course. Just ok. Seemed like everything aside from the ceviche needed more seasoning. The salsas were bland. Pricing was resort level. read more

This was one of the highlights of a so so staycation. The first time I had the summer prix fixe menu which is a great deal and has great options I did do the ceviche upgrade, then the Caesar Salad and the Wagyu Brisket. The sea bass ceviche was amazing with the passion fruit, and I think was my favorite thing I ate the whole stay. The Caesar is a poblano Caesar and very good it's a nice spin on the traditional Caesar. The Wagyu Brisket was perfection and they give you all the stuff to turn it into tacos. The next time I wanted to try the Charred Strawberry Salad...sooo the first one was set down then taken away because it wasn't right...we were not told what wasn't right. The 2nd one that came out was fine but it really shouldn't be called a Charred Strawberry Salad, habanero from the dressing is the prominent flavor and it's spicy. There are very few strawberries and for some reason they put 4 thin slices of apple across the top. The labneh was a nice touch for cooling the habanero but there were definitely too few strawberries to be called a strawberry salad. One other thing, there's not a large attention to detail just like in the other areas of the hotel, on the first visit when I ordered the brisket, they put a bunch of whole peppers on my plate but only provided a butter knife, they were very difficult to cut. When they boxed the brisket they just threw everything in 1 box, I'm actually surprised they put the salsa's in containers. But the peppers the brisket, the tortillas and then the sauces just pretty much dumped in 1 box from what I could tell. I also said I was taking the food back to my mom but they only provided 1 set of silverware. Overall at this staycation I did not feel like I was at a luxury hotel with luxury service everything was just ok. They get 5 stars because the flavors of a few things I had were exceptional and nothing was actually bad. read more

The ambiance is dark and moody but it works and service was top notch. I'd rate the food as solid but nothing spectacular, especially not for the price. But still good enough to be worth a try. read more

At first, wasn't so sure about this place but then the food came out. Got the guac, which i had high expectations since it was so expensive. It met the expectations. Got the sea bass and side of Arroz Chaufa. The sea is might be the best i have ever had in my life. The flavor and crispy skin. My my, no words and will be dreaming about this forever. The rice was good but very salty. I think it's meant to be eaten with other dishes but not i ate as standalone and felt it was way to salty. the waiter was super awesome and such a pretty place to get dinner. read more

My husband and I stayed at The Arizona Biltmore to celebrate my husband's milestone birthday and dined at Renata's Hearth. I made reservations a few weeks prior and made a note that it was for his birthday. The concierge at The Biltmore confirmed our reservations for us. The hostess wished my husband a happy birthday as soon as we checked in and were seated right away. Our server came to greet us shortly after. The space is lovely and romantic complete with live music. Renata's currently has a summer prix-fixe menu for $60 per person. The options looked great so we decided to order the following from that menu: Charred Spanish Octopus a la Veracruz +$10 Sea Bass and Blue Crab Ceviche +$12 Single Brisket Roasted Chilean Sea Bass +$25 Chocolate Kahlua Cake We also ordered the El Matador (margarita) and Coconut Cheesecake, which were not included in the prix-fixe menu. The El Matador, crafted with Don Julio Reposado, Unión Uno Mezcal, habanero, hibiscus, pomegranate, lime, and black lava salt was a well-balanced. The presentation was also lovely with the smoke. The octopus was cooked perfectly and the ceviche was refreshing. My husband ordered the single brisket for his entree and I the Chilean sea bass. The fish was delicate and oh so delicious. One of the best things I've eaten in awhile! My husband also enjoyed his brisket which was tender and flavorful. Despite an unusually long wait for dessert, our server made up for it by surprising us with a complimentary third dessert, the Dulce de Leche Crème Brûlée. Each dessert was wonderful, with my favorite being the crème brûlée and my husband's favorite being the coconut cheesecake. We were thoroughly impressed with the overall experience at Renata's Hearth, including the ambiance, service, flavors, and generous portions of the food! read more

Located in Arizona Biltmore, this Latin-inspired restaurant is one you'll want to add to your list if you're visiting in Phoenix. We dined on a Sunday evening at 6:45 PM and were seated quickly. Our server, Jeff, was lovely and courteous, but unfortunately could not do much to expedite the very painfully slow dinner service. We ordered just 2 entrees and 1 side and it took over 50 minutes to receive them. *** THE MEAL *** - Roasted Chilean Seabass ($58) -- peruvian rice, mole verde, pickled fresno chile. This was TO DIE FOR. Seriously. Perfectly seared on both ends with a delicious flavor to the fish. The rice was adequately served and the mole verde added extra flavor. I wish I had ordered two of these as it was spectacular. - Tomahawk steak ($150) -- 32 oz dry aged black angus, chimichurri, cooked medium rare. Like most tomahawk steaks, you really can't go wrong with the cut and flavor. The chimichurri was a great addition and this meal also came with corn and flour tortillas with 3 house made salsas. It was different, eating a tomahawk like a taco, but it was great. Additionally, the pineapple salsa was hands down the best salsa I have ever had and I really don't say that lightly. - Esquites ($12) -- sweet corn, green chile butter, epazote, kewpie mayo, queso fresco, and house tajin. While I thought that this was delicious, it was a just a tad too liquidy and the corn was drowning in the concoction. Overall, the ambiance is lovely and the meal was fantastic. I definitely recommend stopping by if you're staying at the resort. Hilton diamond members are also able to use their myway credit to dine here for added savings. (24/50--2024) read more

I absolutely loved my visit to Renata's Hearth. The food was amazing. We ordered ceviche, Branzino, steak and churros which were all delicious. I enjoyed everything but the ABSOLUTE standout were the crab claws. They were perfection. If I ordered nothing else, I would order these. I can't wait to go back for more. I highly recommend visiting. When you do, you MUST order the crab claws! read more

Since we decided to enjoy the resort this trip, we decided to give Renata's a try. At first glance of the menu, I thought this was a "modern Mexican" place. I was pleasantly surprised with the food as well as the portion sizes. The wagyu brisket was exceptional, as were the scallops and the seabass. Great appetizers, great drinks as well. Heather provided great recommendations, notably, the wine recommendation. Service was on point for the very comfortable, inviting and modern atmosphere.

Went to the Biltmore for a wedding. We had a night to dine on our own and went to Renata's for dinner. We didn't have reservations so we had to wait a few minutes for our table, but the bartender Tara was by the host stand and offered drinks for us as we waited, and recommended these incredible tequila drinks for our group and was so friendly and fun. We ordered a bunch of different drinks and all of them more amazing than the next - we almost could have just stayed and hung out with her the rest of the night!! Thank you Tara read more

Hotel and restaurant are beautiful, service was wonderful. Checked in a bit too often which was disruptive at times to our group's conversation but super polite and lovely overall. I appreciated their wanting to be attentive. The menu was unique, but to be honest I found it to be too expensive given flavor profiles and portions. That's the only reason for 4 stars. I ordered the crispy polenta and esquite sides. The polenta was tasty, the esquita a bit too soupy for my taste and not as flavorful as I hoped but still glad I tried it. The yellowtail ceviche a friend ordered looked good though he said he was a bit underwhelmed. Staff that stood out were Alyssa and Fernando at the bar just outside the restaurant. They were so lovely and warm when I was hanging out before dining. Simone and the gentleman helping her at our table were really lovely. read more

Food is unique and excellent. Prices are exorbitant, especially wine and cocktails, but that's consistent with the other hotel dining areas.

I had a ton of places in PHX as I was in town for a conference that lasted a week, and this was by far the best thing I've eaten. The cochinita pibil was cooked perfectly, the fat melted when I bit into it. The guacamole was a very healthy portion size, and the nachos were very crispy. My friends got the branzino and confirmed it was amazing. The drinks were delicious and surprisingly strong compared to every other place in the hotel. Our service was pretty good, they were very nice and attentive. The music they were playing was also great, felt very relaxing. I'd definitely come back if I ever stay at the Biltmore again. read more

We were very excited to eat here especially given the reviews, interiors, cocktail list, and dinner menu. The reception staff was attentive and welcoming and we loved the the warm feel of the restaurant. The manager came by twice and was very charming and asked how our evening was going, which is a very nice touch. Renata's staff were pleasant and certainly seemed to be doing their best to be attentive to our needs. All of the appetizers and entres were cooked extraordinarily well also. So why and how could I be leaving a 2 star review, right? Here's the thing, at a restaurant like this, you need to be hitting on all cylinders if you're going to charge $22 - $30 for a cocktail and $95 for a 12 oz NY Steak without sides. Here is a list of what was just "off": 1a. Asked for a Pappy Van Winkle Manhattan for my wife on her birthday. They thought they had it but didn't and brought her a Bulleit Rye Manhattan without coming back with what options they had. 1b. I had 3 speicalty cocktails, the Barreled Aged Oaxacan Old Fashioned , Against the Grain, and the El Matador. All of the cocktails have amazing ingredients and sound extremely interesting. Unfortunately, each one I tried was nothing exceptional. All of the amazing ingredients simply cancelled eachother out and delivered muted / bland unextradorinary cocktails, especially for the price. For example, I expected to taste a tequila style Old Fashioned in the Oaxacan Old Fashion given the high end tequila used but it tasted like a Jim Beam Old Fashioned, what's the point, right? The Against the Grain was odd, it reminded me of a bad attempt at a Mai Tai. The El Matador was equally as confusing, no drive but a weird underwhelming flavor with a hint of heat. 2. Appetizers - Again, cooked terrifically but none of them other than the Mexican Ceasar salad was worth eating, they were all bland and uninteresting, which is not what I expect from Latin inspired cuisine. I will say that the Ceasar Salad was by far the absolute best I've ever had and the best thing the restaurant serves! 3. My wife ordered the Sea Bass which was perfectly cooked. Unfortunately the fish was not fresh, it had a "fish" like flavor to it which means it had been sitting around or not kept correctly. What a shame to cook a passed fish with such excellence but a complete miss. Any fresh fish should never be "fishy," especially a Seabass. 4. When they delivered the food, the waiter should come over immediately to check in on us. We hadn't seen our waitress in 15 minutes, my drink was dry and was hoping to order that third cocktail mentioned above. I asked for staff to bring over our waiter so I could order a drink and she brought me the drink I had previously had, total miscommunication, which can happen. 5. When our food arrived, none of the staff nor the waitress cared to ensure we had proper utensils to eat our entres. My son could not eat his NY Steak without a steak knife and I didn't have fork to eat mine. Overall, if I spend $500 on three people, I expect the experience to be amazing. I think Phoenix isn't use to what good food really is unfortunately. Renata's Hearth is likely a welcome restaurant in an area mainly served by chains until the last decade but it is far from worthy given the flavors, price point, and lack of attention to detail by staff that need to be much sharper and on top of it. read more

I couldn't let this experience end without trying the El Matador cocktail. It was interesting! This drink is for anyone who loves Mezcal and smokey drinks. I'm glad that I got to try it but it wasn't for me lol! Regardless, I would absolutely love to eat here again! read more
