What is everyone saying?
I will start this off by saying that the food was decent. If the service wasn't so bad, I would've given it three stars. It came out quickly and efficiently and tasted like it should. The seasoning was a bit lacking, but I found that most of the food in Sedona was like that so I might just be more used to the flavor in Texas. What I do want to comment on is the service specifically. When we came in and out our names on the list, we were told there would be a twenty minute wait. We thought that was fine and saw people were waiting in the front so we did that too. Not two minutes later, a waiter comes up to us and tells us to wait in our car. Other restaurants in Sedona had us wait in our car too, probably to keep the area in the front not as crowded, so i got that. what I realized when I got out that my friend pointed out to me was that she just picked us out. I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt and thought maybe future new people would be told to wait in their cars too, but when we came in after we got our text that they were ready to have us, there were new people waiting in the lobby. I have never been so obviously picked on, and no one really corrected the behavior of the waitress, and it was kind of disconcerting. I'm not gonna go there and point out the obvious of why this waitress might have picked on us, but the food is very mid to waste your time at a discriminatory spot. Go to the coffee pot restaurant honestly. Breakfast options are plenty there and they're nice and respectful over there.
Also, eating here has made me appreciate the houston dining scene even more. Nice service or if the service sucks, it sucks for everyone so you know you're not being targeted. I'm ok with bad service if it isn't targeted.

Gavin waited on us, great service. We were traveling through the city and this location had great reviews. It did not disappoint. Everyone was kind and the food was amazing. Kuddos to the chef.

Will most definitely be back, the food was excellent the service (Becky) was superb! My husband had biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs, and potatoe medley with Irish coffee, I had the Tex-mex salad with a mimosa. The restaurant was very clean and well maintained, bathrooms were small but very clean. Located in a strip mall so no street parking!

This good-sized cafe is open for breakfast and lunch, aka brunch. Our experiences have been good after entering this typically full house. No worries in that you get moved in and seated respectfully, not rushed. Your food is served by a courteous staff delivered as you'd expect it. Our omelets and pancakes (personal breakfast favs) were simple, creative, yet traditionally prepared for the courses. Make a local favorite yours, too.

Much to my dismay, our hotel resort in Sedona stops serving breakfast at 11:00 am! I'm sorry, but when I'm on vacation I want to sleep in and enjoy a nice brunch with champagne roughly between the hours of 11:30 am and 12:30 pm. I was able to quickly come up with a Plan B that served breakfast until 2:00 pm and was most highly rated. Red Rock Cafe is an outstanding restaurant that exceeded our expectations. When we arrived the wait for a table was nearly an hour but we stuck it out. I'm sure everything in town was busy during this holiday week. What I appreciated was their use of the wait website or whatever it's called. You can track your time and place in line in real time as you go. I had fun with that.
Service from everyone we encountered could not have been nicer and more genuine. Especially our server Becky who was a dear. I ordered the corned beef hash which was house-made. It was nicely caramelized and super tasty. I bet they have a special hash pan in the kitchen. One of my sunny side egg yolks did pop before it got to the table which presented some unfortunate weepage. It all tasted great nonetheless. Especially the hash browns which were crispy, not overly greasy and such an abundant portion. It was almost hanging over the plate in fact. The "big" sourdough toast on the side was excellent.
My son had a southwest style country fried steak with an essence of chipotle and other things. It was such a combustion of flavor. His English muffin looked perfectly toasted. My wife had a nice order of Eggs Benedict that looked great. Again with a bright southwest flair. She also ordered a Bailey's Coffee drink that was expertly balanced. It had a generous amount of Bailey's that helped warm from the inside out. As a side note, Red Rock Cafe features their signature cinnamon roll, roughly the size of a small baby. I saw one at a neighboring table and it was eye-watering! Overall a happy accident that led us here and I'm so glad it did. I would highly recommend this establishment to anyone visiting Sedona or just passing through.

There's a lot to like about this establishment. The food is excellent, prices are fine, it's clean and orderly, and there's a girl named Becky who completes the whole experience- you've got to come try it!

We had lunch here the other day and I had the cowboy Benedict was excellent. The southwest chicken sandwich was okay not much flavor as compared to other items on the menu. As usual the service and atmosphere of the restaurant is top notch thank you!

I don't understand the hype. It's got great reviews and it's very busy. They estimated that we would wait 35 minutes for breakfast and it was closer to 50 minutes. They do have a handy waitlist app so that you can watch and track when it's getting close to your number.
The wait staff were friendly enough and the place is so busy that you know the food is fresh. I got the huevos rancheros and my husband got the chicken fried steak. I was underwhelmed with the portions. We also did order their enormous cinnamon roll. It's huge and ooey gooey sweet. I had a couple of bites but the frosting was overdone - meaning that there was just too much of it.
For the price, there are other options very nearby and I will go to one of those instead.

Best Breakfast in Area. - Best place for breakfast in Sedona, no other Place. Beto R was an excellant server. Breakfast specials on board, look at them at entrance. Breakfast Tacos and French toast, best.

Atmosphere is well lit and clean, a very professional and well managed restaurant! Easy parking. Get there early, fills up fast. They bring you a whole pot of coffee for fill up. Very attentive and fast. Little pricey , but typical for area. In plaza with grocery store to left, in case you forget something on a hike, etc. They are closed Tuesdays! Love the decorations and look of the inside. We will be back, each time in area. Good job, great staff. Food was hot and very tasty, 3 breakfast tacos, a little too much for me, but delicious. by the time we left , place was crowded.

Tasty - We were hungry, hot and thirsty after a long hike in the area. Thought we would call in for lunch as only staying across the road. We both enjoyed our... read more sandwiches and I thought the salad which came with it very good. Our lunch certainly filled the spot.

Great Brunch! - Arrived at 930am on a Monday, and had a 20 min wait. The restaurant wasn't full, guessing the were short on help. The menu is extensive - something for everybody,... read more and we all enjoyed our meals. The Skillet was A LOT of food, as were the sandwiches. All came our quickly and perfectly done.
