The fact that this is only the 93rd review for Deseo makes me want to break out my pimp hand and slap everyone that is not reviewing this restaurant. Deseo is easily one of the very best restaurants in all of Arizona.
Being located in the amazing Westin Kierland Resort only makes it more of a treat. Walking around before and after add an ambience that driving up to a smaller restaurant in a strip mall will never have.
I'm not one to go into great detail about the food so I will just say that everything I tried was simply incredible and I would go back a million times (and will to finish trying the whole menu...because I am a serious future fattie.)
Here is what happened:
Mojitos: The Nectar Grande and the Grand Grande were killer! Best Mojito I have ever had!
Apps: Millionaire Tacos and Shrimp Chicharron!!!
Entrees: Yuca wrapped dorado al ajillo (Mahi Mahi-Shrimp-Amarath-Shaved Calamari-roasted Garlic)
Kobe Vaca Encebollada (Grilled Kobe Skirt Steak-Huancaina Potato-Oven dried tomato)
Sides: Maduros Cubanos (Ripped Plantains)
Alcachofa y Romesco (Roasted Artichoke-Roasted Tomato and Pepita Romesco)
Dessert: Chocolate Cigar (Chocolate espuma-cappuccino gelato)
They had to roll me out in a wheel barrel....and I applauded the chef heartily as they did so.
Definitely Stop In!!! (and ask for server Samantha, she was fantastic.)
