    Everything was great. I didn't realize there was an 18% service charge because it was Christmas; I didn't recall seeing anything in Open Table when I booked the reservation. The folks at the table next to me weren't aware of the 18% service charge either. That didn't include gratuity (tip for the server)! Add that to over 20% tip and it's 40% added to the price of the dinner, which adds a lot. Makes for a surprise amount when you weren't aware!!

    It has been 15 years since I last dined and Lon’s. I used to eat there five to seven times per year and had such fond memories. I made these reservations whilst in Family Vacation and went with high expectation’s. It showed that my memory was accurate. The food was outstanding, the service was attentive without being distracting and the ambiance, outside in the patio, was sublime. It was my guests’ first experience and I set it up as a great time. They told me afterward that they had a hard time believing that it was as excellent as I touted. They actually remarked that it was even better than my description

    Fabulous dinner with a long time friend. I love the rustic feel of the Tonto bar and grill. The views are amazing our server was very friendly and attentive. We had the corn chowder which was rich and delicious. The pork was flavorful with the right amount of spice. Thank you Tonto for a lovely evening

    They changed the menu and we didn’t like it as much as we used to. Also, the waiter made us wait so long to get a drink and was really just lackluster and flatlined. Not super friendly or attentive but he did take a dish off the bill that we didn’t care for that was quite bland.
