This Secluded Creekside Restaurant In Arizona Is One Of The Most Magical Places You’ll Ever Eat

Arizona might be a landlocked state, but we have quite a few incredible waterfront restaurants. Cress on Oak Creek is one of them, offering seasonally-inspired fare directly on the banks of the beautiful Oak Creek in Sedona.

Part of L'Auberge de Sedona, Cress on Oak Creek is a fine-dining restaurant with the most breathtaking waterfront views you've ever seen.

You'll find the eatery on Little Lane, nestled directly into the wooded banks of the meandering Oak Creek.

Ample seating is available both indoors and out, although the latter is preferred by the overwhelming majority of guests.

Either way, you'll be immersed in the natural beauty of Sedona like never before.

The food is different each day, as it's a fixed, seven-course tasting menu crafted by Executive Chef John Gapasin.

While an exact menu isn't available, the flavors always follow a similar theme of infusing dishes from the southern regions of Spain, Italy, and France with local ingredients.

A la carte items are seasonally inspired, sometimes even using produce and herbs foraged from the property itself.

You never know exactly what will be offered at Cress, but you can rest assured it's always delicious.

Breakfast is the one meal of the day you can plan ahead for, as the menu is relatively the same year-round.

You'll see things like steel-cut oats, omelets, waffles, avocado toast, and plenty of fresh-squeezed juice to fuel you up for the day ahead.

Don't forget to pair your meal with a refreshing, handcrafted cocktail.

There are plenty to choose from, so no matter what you like to sip on, it's probably available.

Address: 301 Little Lane, Sedona, AZ 86336.

Breakfast is served from 7 a.m. until 11 p.m. daily, and items can be ordered a la carte from 11 a.m. until 9 p.m. Dinner is from 5 p.m. until 8 p.m. daily.
