Arizona Makes The 2025 Top 100 Hotel Restaurants in America

by Jon Mark Estes

Arizona’s Shine Continues—Now on America’s Top Hotel Restaurants List

Our state is capturing attention once again—and this time, it's for something a bit tastier. Two standout hotel restaurants in Arizona—Different Pointe of View in Phoenix at The Hilton Tapatio and J&G Steakhouse at The Phoenician in Scottsdale—have been named among the Top 100 Hotel Restaurants in America, according to a brand-new ranking from OpenTable and KAYAK.

This isn’t just a culinary win; it's a nod to Arizona’s growing national prominence. Hotel restaurants have evolved into destination-worthy experiences that attract travelers seeking more than just a place to stay. In fact:

  • 47% of Americans have booked a trip specifically to visit a restaurant

  • Searches using KAYAK’s “hotel restaurant” filter have surged 51% year-over-year

Something has shifted. Now, where to eat can be just as important a consideration as where to stay.


What This Means for Arizona Real Estate

These accolades are about more than flavor—they signal Arizona’s evolving desirability. When our hotels and resorts make national headlines for exceptional dining, they drive interest to the wider community. Tourism grows, market demand rises, and homes in Phoenix, Scottsdale, and beyond become even more attractive investments.

Arizona’s culinary credibility directly enhances its lifestyle appeal. Whether you're looking to buy, sell, or invest, the momentum continues to rise—and I'm here to help you capitalize on that energy.
