In Short
The L-shaped dining room features low lighting, wrought-iron fixtures and a distinct lack of Southwestern kitsch. The bar, home to a large selection of aged tequilas, takes up a wall near the entrance. Start with the smoked salmon tostada, which blends smoked salmon in a habanero reduction. The habanero, one of nature's hottest peppers, only packs a small punch in the subtle sauce. Entrees include a surprising amount of seafood for a landlocked cuisine.

This place has world class Margaritas, try the Prickly Pear. Very fun spot with a hip young crowd. The food is just as good as the place. Try the Fillet Mignon with the Gorgonzola cheese with the Thyme potatoes it is like heaven. Pricey but really worth it.

This is a tiny restaurant, and probably why there is such excellent quality control. The menu isn't big, but they do everything great. The best prickly pear margaritas on the planet and hands down my most favorite dessert: white chocolate bread pudding. I've eaten dinner elsewhere and gone to Canyon for dessert. The wait staff are career waiters, not young sofla trendies acting like they're doing the customer a favor. This place gets packed and the wait can be mighty long, but keep those prickly pears coming and you won't notice.

Canyon has good food, but not really worth the gourmet prices they ask and it was too loud for conversation at my table.

What to Drink:
The prickly pear margarita, made with the juice of a prickly pear that has been soaked for 24 hours in 100 percent blue agave is slightly sweeter than a regular margarita, pink and absolutely delicious.
Know Before You Go:
Don't go here for quiet conversation--the noise level can get pretty high, especially after a round of margaritas.
