Come for the view, stay for the planes
Mesa Grill sits beside the Sedona Airport Scenic Lookout, so you can watch small planes come and go against the red rocks. Google reviewers mention the views more than 600 times, plus sunsets and plane watching.
RV tip: Airport Road climbs steeply up the mesa. Drive the tow vehicle, and plan a sunset stop at the scenic lookout before or after your meal.

For RVers
Getting to Mesa Grill in the tow vehicle
The practical stuff we wished someone had told us before we pulled in.
Leave the rig below
Airport Road is a long, narrow climb up the mesa, and the trailhead pull-out halfway up doesn’t allow RVs. Drive the tow vehicle.
Scenic lookout parking
The Airport Mesa Scenic Lookout next door has a paid lot with no overnight parking. Pay at the kiosk or attendant.
Bring the dog
Dogs are welcome on the enclosed patio, and there’s a doggie menu.
Book for sunset
Weekend waits can be long. Reserve on OpenTable or call (928) 282-2400.
