Gourmet Pan-Asian

Pan-Asian with both à la carte and teppanyaki seating. The teppanyaki tables are the main draw — reserve at the concierge desk, ideally on arrival day. Standard menu covers sushi, ramen, spring rolls, and seabass with miso sauce and black garlic. The show cooking at the teppanyaki station makes this the most interactive dinner option on property.

El Patio

Included

Authentic Mexican

Authentic Mexican cuisine in an old-world hacienda setting. The kitchen focuses on regional preparations rather than Tex-Mex standbys — standout dish is the beef filet with black recado sauce and chorizo. Solid choice for guests who want to eat locally-influenced food rather than international standards.
