My husband have stayed at La Posada on four different occasions, and we always eat our meals at the Turquoise Room. We have dined there a dozen times. We always get a good meal. The ambiance is the dining room is very pleasant and the service is always great. On this visit we came with my husband's sister. For our first dinner we shared a squash blossom appetizer. My husband and I both had bison short ribs. This dish came with mashed potatoes. It was topped with peas, carrots, watermelon radish, cherry tomatoes, baby onions and brown gravy. The bison meat was very tender, and the dish was delicious. I also had the Signature Soup: sweet corn chowder on one side of the bowl, and spicy bean soup on the other; a great combination. My sister-in-law ordered filet mignon. Our meals also came with very good bread (dark and white) but the butter was too sweet. My sister-in-law had a crimson margarita. The next night I had Churro Lamb meatballs, which were lamb and pork meatballs studded with currants and pine nuts. They were panko crusted and deep fried. The meatballs were served on a bed of greens with grape juice and herb vinaigrette, plus a mint, tamarind and green chili aioli dipping sauce. My meal was delicious. On the second night my husband and his sister had potato wrapped halibut with wilted garlic spinach.The fish was served with red onions, grape tomatoes and a truffle chile campana sauce topped with crab meat. They enjoyed it. We shared two tasty dessert: carrot cake and crème brûlée. Both nights we had Forest as our server. He did a great job. We had breakfast at La Posada, different kinds of eggs. read more

Great service nicely decorated dining room. The signature soup is outstanding. The entrees are outstanding with local sourced ingredients. We have never had a dessert here because we have always been to full. We always try to eat here when we are in the area. This place has never disappointed us. read more

The Turquoise Room - Southwest Vegetable Platter - New American Near Me - Winslow, Arizona

Disappointed at how expensive this restaurant has gotten. It's Winslow for goodness sake. The Union Station breakfast was $12 a couple years ago, then $14 last year and now it's $19?! C'mon?! Really?! Eggs aren't that expensive anymore. I suppose one is paying for the ambience. read more

Food is part of the travel experience and The Turquoise Room certainly proves that visiting Winslow AZ at La Posada is an experience you can't miss. Food is delicious (we had two dinners in a row). Service is great and everything is worthwhile the visit! read more

If you really, really want to have the best in Modern Southwestern Cuisine in Arizona, then you really, really have no choice but to take a trip to Winslow, AZ where you will find this gem of a restaurant and the former Chef, a Master of Southwestern Culinary Art, and James Beard Award Nominee Chef John Sharpe who left a legacy of the extraordinaire before leaving not too long ago. It is simply magnificent. Whether you are there for Breakfast, lunch or dinner, you'll be simply amazed at the not just the incredible food, but the subtle, nostalgic and southwestern ambience, design, architecture, spaciousness, railroad station eatery and décor brought to us by Fred Harvey's dreamchild, Mary Elizabeth Jane Colter, its renowned architect, as well as Allan Affeldt its current owner. It's no wonder its rated one of the Top 5 hotel restaurants in North America by Conde Nast. We had the pleasure of enjoying both their breakfast and dinner menus recently while visiting. During our stay at La Posada, where the restaurant is located, we wandered about through its expansive property filled with sitting areas, patios, greens and gardens - to which you can actually take your meal out to. And we were amazed to see where much of what we would be eating was actually from their very own beautifully laid out vegetable garden. On our first morning there, we stopped in for breakfast before hitting the road to see the nearby Homolovi ruins, Petrified Forest and Petroglyphs. The service was wonderful and professional, the atmosphere relaxing, but the breakfast was different - it was magnificent! Although their menu is not extensive, what they offer is fantastic. My wife decided on the 'Union Station' which incorporates a good-sized slice of ham, two eggs scrambled, with an incredible to die for Hatch green-chile potatoes. I went for 'Chef Jesus' Authentic Huevos Rancheros' with super micro-thin sheets of tortillas, their fab ranchero beans, two perfectly fried eggs, a delectable, mildly spicy and smooth ranchera sauce, and oozing jalapeno pepper jack cheese, and then its overlaid with an outstanding corn salsa, crema fresca, perfectly ripe sliced avocado and Hatch green-chile potatoes. I don't mind bragging about the 'Rancheros', but they are the best Huevos Rancheros I've had in Arizona to date! After visiting nearby 200-million-year-old Petrified Forest and its Petroglyphs near Holbrook, we headed back that late afternoon for a relaxing cocktail and dinner, this too was awesome. We started with my wife's very, very good glass of Aqui Di Venus Rose Wine and my Route 66 Margarita - perfect, excellent (I wish I kept track of the ingredients). We began with an appetizer of tender Calamari with a mildly seasoned flour with delish chipotle aioli sauce, scrumptious. For the mains, my wife went for their exceptionally tender and tasty Free Range Bison Short Ribs that appeared to be prepared in its own au jus along with carrots, baby greens and some incredible seasonings. My selection blew me away! It was the Churro Lamb Sampler. You gotta have this! The dish offers a set of four distinctly different items which collectively create a uniquely marvelously delicious taste combination. The sampler brings you a heaping cup of a magnificent, out of this world, local Navajo free-range lamb stew with hominy and corn, a succulent, perfectly rendered lamb shoulder in green chili over tantalizing bacon, with a dash of mint and garlic au jus, and a tamale in a sweet corn sauce so incredible its beyond description and along came a side of home-grown vegies. Wow! We finished by sharing a Five Layer Chocolate cake with a marvelous drizzle of raspberry coming with a side of perfect sorbet. We wrapped up our exquisite dinner by ordering a Graham Six Grapes Port and a Landy Cognac VSOP, taking it outside to relax, sip and enjoy with the backdrop of a water fountain and natural garden in the patio. My understanding is that although Chef Sharpe has gone, his incredible staff remained to continue his incredible legacy. And somehow, something tells me, that the new Chef's name may be Jesus... please correct me if I'm wrong - I'd love to know who cooks up such wonderful cuisine and thank him or her for it. The Turquoise Room is fine dining at its best, yet less $$ than place like Phoenix! We will be back for more. Bon appétit by all means. read more

In the middle of a truly beautiful old hotel, in the forgotten town of Winslow AZ, lies this neat little place. Most hotel restaurants just suck. This one is worth attending as a destination even if you're not staying there. I chose the hotel based on this place because of its good reputation. I was not disappointed. We only had breakfast there, but it was a work of art. Very inventive dishes, ad the setting is just beautiful. The bar is small but looks well stocked. Since I don't usually drink in the morning I passed on that. I had the huevos rancheros and my significant other had the corn maidens delight. Both were excellent dishes, very flavorful and well presented. The service was friendly and fairly prompt. I will make it a point to go back here next time I'm in town. I want to try out their dinner fare as well. read more

In short--very good, but underwhelming given the place's stratospheric reputation. Worth a stop on Route 66 if budget is no issue, but I wouldn't make a special trip from Flagstaff. Highlights--the daily special appetizer fried squash blossom was super fresh: fried cresh and crispy, tender corn inside, and a nice kick to a really vibrant salsa. The lamb tamale was also really nice, with slow-cooked lamb texture and cornmeal that wasn't too mealy. Lowlights--the lamb sampler plate had frozen vegetables. Really? The lamb stew also had an odd aftertaste. Lamb medallion was solidly in the middle: bit salty for my taste but cooked perfectly to order. The lamb and vegetables actually reminded me of the Amtrak steak, of all things, which I suppose fits the building's secondary use as an Amtrak station. read more

One of the best meals and dessert I have had! Service was excellent and beautiful atmosphere. Reservations encouraged.

Inside the La Posada Hotel.. it's beautiful! I love this place. The decor is wonderful, the food is delicious and affordable and the service is awesome! We had Valentina and she was the sweetest. This place is definitely worth the trip up. After our lunch we walked through the gallery of the wonderful Tina Mion, and then to the museum to see the worlds largest Navajo rug. It was amazing! Check this place out, you won't be sorry! read more

Still one of our favorites after staying at La Posada and eating here at least once a year for fifteen years, our dinner tonight did not disappoint. The bar is being remodeled, but drinks were nicely served with an excellent wine list paired with their signature entrees. Samantha, our server, was charming and professional, giving excellent suggestions and service. Their vegetarian platter is a tasty southwest treat with grilled chile, polenta and other nicely prepared vegetables. My husband loves their bison short ribs, and they were as excellent as remembered. Do not miss their signature soup. read more

The Turquoise Room - Veggie platter - New American Near Me - Winslow, Arizona

I lived in the area several years ago and recently visited on a several thousand mile road trip. Laposada was a MUST stop on the visit. I was particularly interested in getting squash blossom appetizers. My schedule allowed a stop there around noon, so I decided to have lunch. I could not find my favorite appetizer on the menu so asked the waiter if they were out of season. He said they were only on dinner menu, but could sometimes be cooked for lunch. I explained that i had driven almost 2000 miles and i would really like to have an order. He asked and the request was denied by the kitchen. Bottom line, dont drive a few days anticipating something like this. It wont hapoen here!​ read more

We started with Stuffed Squash Blossoms, which still are some of the best anywhere. We then had the Lamb Trio Sampler, Lamb Stew, Sweet Corn Lamb Tamala & Lamb Chop. All were fantastic. The Lamb is Churro Lamb only available from the Navajo Nation. Our server Ebony was delightful and very helpful making our evening so special. The ambiance of La Posada really transformed us back to a time where live could be lived slower and more intentionally. We stop here every time we are in the area. Looking forward to going back soon read more

The Turquoise Room - Stuffed Squash Blossoms - New American Near Me - Winslow, Arizona

Service at the bar was excellent. Food was a little bland and overpriced. I had the shrimp pasta and the creme brulee.

This was a real treat! Capturing all the ambiance of an old Fred Harvey Hotel, this place is definitely worth a stop on Route 66. The food and cocktails were excellent, and the service was truly friendly. We shared pork carnitas, and smoked grilled ribs. Both were terrific. The Mexican Firing Squad is a serious drink, and the Turquoise Margarita is a fun one. After your meal, the parking lot is easy walking distance to the famous corner in Winslow Arizona for your photo op. read more

This place is really special. If you're driving across Arizona, make sure to time your trip so you can have a meal here and look around the historic hotel. The sitting rooms are so beautifully restored and peaceful. They have an outstanding gift shop, too. As for the food: the vegan quinoa bowl was bland; not a great choice unless you're actually vegan. Everything else (signature soup, cornbread, quesadilla, prickly pear lemonade) was delicious, and the Fred Harvey pie of the day (apple blackberry) was KILLER. It has a shortbread cookie-esque crust that stays crisp around the fruit. I was chasing every crumb! Service was competent and kind. read more

I will begin with the positive- absolutely beautiful setting, great waiter for our dining experience, and a hostess that was willing to fix a mistake in our reservation and work with us to be accommodating. Unfortunately, we waited well over an hour for our meals after ordering house specials, half of the food was cold, and the drinks were sadly not well made. We really tried to remain positive and gracious and to be understanding and respectful. They did not seem to be inclined to make amends for the poor quality. There was another table that was extremely loud. Again, to end on a positive note, I am grateful to the waiter and the hostess for doing their best and being kind. read more

We were in Winslow for my boyfriend to attend a teaching seminar. His birthday was earlier in the week so I was looking for a nice place to take him for dinner. The Turquoise Room was a no-brainer. The food was great. The atmosphere is beautiful and our server, Diane was friendly and professional. My boyfriend had the AZ Wild Platter, I had the Chicken Mole. I inquired if the mole sauce was really spicy and was offered a sample to try before ordering. Note, it has a touch of heat that comes on slowly, but doesn't linger to where it is really spicy. I thought it was amazing. We both enjoyed our food, but the star is the sweet corn tamale! Portions are generous and we were full after dinner so we got the Mexican chocolate brownie with wild strawberry gelato to go. Our hotel room fridge didn't have a freezer so we had to eat the strawberry gelato soon so it didn't melt. By itself it was amazing, paired with the brownie, undescribable! We will be returning to Winslow in October for another seminar and plan to visit again to try other selections. read more

Really good food, in a beautiful, historic setting. If you can ignore some of the tourist-trap stuff, it's the best restaurant by far, for miles! The hotel itself is legend, an architectural masterpiece and still a great stay by all reports, despite the "gift shop" that you must go through to get to anything else, but this review is only for the restaurant. Dark, cool interior with unique cut-tin chandeliers and local art on the walls. The tables and chairs feel heavy and rustic. The food was full of Southwestern and Native American flavors, masa polenta and piquant chilis, perfectly braised beef, aromatic and delicious. Portions were generous and the food was artistically presented. A delight to eat and to share! Service was polite and thoughtful, if a bit timid. We were well attended. Surprise of surprises: they serve excellent espresso here, in a proper demitasse with a lemon twist as it should be! For this Seattle guy, that really made it feel like a true oasis... Memorable; I would absolutely eat here again. Highly recommended! read more

While on a road trip to Reno, we stopped in Winslow, AZ to stand on the corner and to see La Posada. We were on an adventure of seeing the Harvey Hotels/Mary Jane Colter's designs- Winslow's La Posada, La Fonda in Santa Fe, the Grand Canyon's El Tovar, Hopi House, and Watchtower, and the Painted Desert Inn. The Turquoise Room has been restored from the original Harvey Hotel days, and the lunch menu is limited. We enjoyed soup & salad and a sandwich. The dessert was great- carrot cake and Fred Harvey Berry Pie. The bill was pricey - $83.00, which included 2 teas, entrees and dessert plus tip. The space is gorgeous- and the current owner has an art gallery on the 2nd floor. Tina Mion - such interesting work! It was certainly worth the experience! read more

I made a reservation ten days in advance. We arrived 5 minutes early and were informed that our reservation had been changed by the computer and our table had been given away. While we waited for a table (25 minutes) we ordered cocktails. The drinks were missing ingredients. We were seated and ordered the special. It took 30 minutes to get our soup/salad course to the table. Then 45 minutes later, still no entrees. (1:15 total) The chef gave us attitude when we asked if our toddler could get his Mac and cheese. Then when our food came out it was cold. The manager was as disappointing as the chef. The one shining star was Steven the waiter who really seemed like he was doing his best. Steven was not at fault, he did a good job. read more

You see that second favorite website on my profile? That's what brought me here! OK...AND I wanted to Stand on the Corner in Winslow AZ! After an epic visit to the Petrified Forest National Park, I knew I needed to make my way west. ONWARD!! Well seriously, a snow storm was headed east and I needed to be in Flagstaff before I got stranded. I stopped here and thought it would be a fun historic place to grab a bite to eat. VERY cool spot! I was seated quickly, it was about 2pm, maybe a bit later, and I was the only one there. I missed the lunch crowd or everyone else was already hunkered down. I ordered their hibiscus tea and the burger with a side caesar salad. I was pretty hungry. The tea was DELICIOUS!! No sweetener needed. My salad arrived shortly after. Wow-the best caesar I think I've ever had. The amount of dressing was perfect, it wasn't floating in it. Just the right amount. It also had pepitas! Yummy! My burger arrived and it was perfect. The bun was a soft brioche. It came with cheddar cheese, tomato, lettuce and red onion. So tasty. As I was eating several trains passed by. SO fun to watch. I almost forgot to mention the music! The music playing was perfect. I felt like I had gone back in time. At least for a quick lunch. read more

Dining room tucked inside a beautiful hotel. It's part restaurant, part museum, part art gallery. Fabulous staff. There aren't a lot of restaurant options in the area and the place gets busy with all the hotel guests, so recommend making a reservation. Nice selection of wines by the glass. The signature corn soup was my fave dish of the night. Squash blossoms looked pretty, but weren't for me. Love that they have veg-friendly options. The Killer Vegetable Platter is huge, plenty to share with a variety of bites- tamale, corn flan, roasted and steamed veggies, cheese-filled green chile, mashed potatoes, tofu, and more. My gf ordered the shrimp pasta- HUGE! Next time we'd save room for one of the tasty-sounding dessert options. read more

The Posada Hotel is a restored Harvey House Hotel, a train station built in the 30s. It is an amazing place to stay, full of history and displays of the famous people who stayed there. It is like stepping back in time. Like staying in a museum. Long wide hallways filled with large pieces of art and photos. Smaller hallways have nooks and crannies and photos. So much to see. We were excited to eat dinner in the nostalgic and beautiful Turquoise Room, located in the hotel. The service was excellent and we were seated quickly. We had reservations, which are recommended. Dinner started with a basket of excellent breads. My husband let me try his bowl of the signature soup, which was wonderful. It is a creamy sweet corn soup with smooth and spicy black beans, with a spicy chile cream on top. My appetizer was the hemp vegan tamales. They were delicious, light corn meal masa and tomatillos and nopalitos. The salsa verde and corn salsa on the top was perfect. I chose the Arizona Vegan Salad as my main course. It was fresh and generous,with a nice variety of veggies, but it was a little run of the mill. My husband's Scottish Salmon Filet, on the other hand was superb. The 6 oz Scottish salmon was cooked perfectly. It was served with a Provençal tomato salsa with quinoa, a fresh vegetable medley and fingerling potatoes. We were way too full from our meal to order dessert, perhaps another time! It was a very relaxing dining experience. Very good food, cool atmosphere and lovely service. read more

Prior to dinner, we had wine and cocktails in the adjoining martini room. I ordered a gin cocktail that was very pretty and quite easy to drink. My husband ordered a red blend. For dinner, we shared: Signature Soup Holiday Salad The Wild - Wild Platter Chocolate Soufflé I enjoyed the corn part of the signature soup. The spicy black bean side was ok, and this further reconfirms I just don't like black beans. My husband liked both parts of the soup. The holiday salad was a nice salad. I liked the inclusion of sliced persimmons and roasted beets. The Wild-Wild platter was a course of crispy fried quail and grilled Elk. This was our first time trying Elk. Just delicious. Order medium-rare. It was a well composed plate. My husband and I shared all four courses. The restaurant split the main course into two plates. Last, was the soufflé. It's been a while since I had s soufflé. This was quite decadent and now, as I type this, I want another bite of that soufflé! The hotel recommends reservations for the Turquoise Room. Parking is hotel parking or street parking. Service was fine and they advise that due to staffing shortages done items may take longer than others. It was s nice dinner in a nice restaurant in a beautiful hotel. read more

What an interesting and exciting dinner. We started with cocktails in the bar. Slightly disappointed in how weak the martini's were. Our table of four was seated and order taken. Lovely menu with truly "something for everyone". Soon after the appetizers where served, there was a storm that knocked out the power. But in the true spirit of the restaurant business, "The Show Must Go On". We ate our delicious entrees in semi darkness. I could sort of see the kitchen put a lot of work into the vegetarian plate. It might have looked beautiful. Never realized how much I rely on my eyes to enjoy food. Lovely service by Salvador. A young waiter just leaning his craft. The Posada Hotel is worthy of your business and support. read more

Okay, I'm glad that I didn't totally give up on the Turquoise Room because I was very happy with my last visit. We stopped for lunch, and our server, Jadiana, was welcoming and helpful. She provided attentive, courteous service, and we give her high marks! The Signature Soup is still excellent, and I tried something I hadn't seen on the menu before, the Fish and Chips. Our food was well prepared, and the hospitality was great. I'm happy to add this back to my list of places to stop. read more

The Turquoise Room in Winslow Arizona Located in an old Fred Harvey hotel by the Amtrak station. It's a historical property that exemplifies the Southwestern style. It has easy access off of the interstate It's well worth a stop for lunch or an overnight stay or dinner if you're staying nearby. It has high quality food and has the Western class to it but it's also very friendly. I've been there for dinner in lunch most recently for lunch where I enjoyed the French dip a delicious sandwich Is sliced from local homemade beef. I've also had delicious beef fajitas for lunch with the homemade corn tortillas. I can't Ignore the desserts I had to have one whenever I visit. Most recently I had the house made brownie warm with tiramisu Gelato It's open every day from 700am to 830 PM. Remember restaurants and bars are also about expectations, what type of bar and restaurant are you going to? And everyone is under staffed, so I always appreciate the service staff who are working, i basically have the the habit of overtipping! read more
