This is the new hot spot in Sedona. Waits for a table could be up to two hours! They do not accept reservations. I ended up eating at the bar which is fine for me. They have an outdoor seating area and a separate walk up bar so you can order a drink and sit out on the deck while waiting for your table.  Once at the bar, I wanted some guacamole but I thought the portion would be too big with dinner so the bartender offered to make a half order.  It was the perfect size. As with most Mexican restaurants, chips and salsa are offered for free. No exception here but the salsa is made in house and is incredibly good.

For the main course I had the Pollo en Mole Poblano which is house smoked chicken in a puebla style mole.  The portion looks small but it was the perfect amount with the guacamole earlier and now room for dessert.  For dessert I had Mexican Chocolate Pie – Rich Chocolate pie with Mexican and Dark chocolates, candied almonds and fresh whipped cream. I opt not to have the whip cream.  An excellent experience and would repeat. Just plan ahead and make reservations.

Update June 2016: I stopped in again during my most recent visit to Sedona. Still great food and staff. I had to eat at the bar again because of the long wait. Elote will be a usual stop on all my trips to Sedona.
