CORE Kitchen & Wine Bar Restaurant Review

: The Latin-influenced cuisine of executive sous chef Jose Fernandez is offered at this The Ritz-Carlton, Dove Mountain restaurant. The menu draws inspiration from Arizona’s Sonoran desert and the chef’s culinary upbringing, apparent in appetizers like the short ribs with garden herb gnocchi, tomato corn relish broth and arugula. Entrées such as marinated chicken breast with chayote slaw, fresh fig purée and coconut sauce are most pleasing. But the menu is seasonal, so depending on when you time your visit, you may encounter other delights. We like the mesquite waffles, served with warm caramel bananas, dulce de leche sauce, toffee crunch and Nutella ice cream for dessert, and oenophiles will have no problem selecting appropriate pairings from the extensive wine list.
