Combine good food with ideal weather and remarkable views and you’ve got the makings of a memorable meal. And Arizona has all these things. Here are some of the best outdoor restaurants in Arizona.

Cottonwood: Pizzeria Bocce Patio Bar

This restaurant in Old Town Cottonwood helped define the city’s rising culinary(烹饪的) scene. Chef Michelle Jurisin traveled to Italy to become certified by Verace Pizza Napoletana. Pizzas are made the traditional way. They’re topped with fresh ingredients and cooked in a wood-burning oven. The most popular is the Cire’s with house-made Italian sausage, pepperoni, ricotta, mushrooms, basil and fresh mozzarella.

Lake Havasu City: Burgers By the Bridge

Located at the base of London Bridge, this open-air restaurant serves as Lake Havasu City’s unofficial recreation room. Sitting right at the water’s edge, diners enjoy beautiful views of the boats, the bridge and palm trees from their shaded tables. Everything in the kitchen is made fresh. The juicy Black Angus burgers are tasty, and the chips may be the best in town.

Sedona: Mariposa Latin-Inspired Grill

This restaurant is a perfect combination of art and architecture. Natural stacked stone, rusted metal panels and walls of windows are part of the decoration that’s unlike anyplace else in Sedona. Sitting at the top of a cliff, Mariposa provides a full view of red rocks. Here you will find excellent South American-inspired food. And most dishes are prepared on a wood-fired grill(烤架) or in a wood-burning oven.

Show Low: The House

Dining at The House feels like you’re hanging out at a friend’s backyard barbecue. The wood-paneled building is simple inside. Out back, there’s a big grassy lawn that’s dotted with picnic tables and a yard bar. The menu is a mix of salads, sandwiches, chili and some impressive burgers. Try the House Burger. It’s a nice combination of textures and flavors, and is served with handmade chips.

Details: 1191 E. Hall, Show Low. 928-537-9273.
