Elote Cafe Restaurant Review:
About the restaurant: Elote Café has moved to a larger space in Sedona just over a mile from its original location. Outdoor dining is available.
Food & Drinks: Chef Jeff Smedstad serves cuisine inspired by more than two decades of travels through Mexico. Favorites like guacamole are found alongside more unique offerings such as smoked pork cheeks served with cascabel chile sauce, corn cake and buttermilk cumin drizzle. Other courses might include lamb adobo, duck carnitas, grilled halibut with roasted tomato chipotle sauce, and buffalo short ribs braised in traditional mole poblano. The restaurant also serves its signature elote, a fire-roasted corn served with spicy mayonnaise, lime and cotija cheese. After dinner, indulge in desserts like Mexican chocolate pie or agave ice cream. As for beverages, Elote features tasting flights of Mexican tequilas, plus Mexican beers, wines and several variations on the margarita.
