Love is in the air at Ritz-Carlton Dove Mountain

The stunning Ritz-Carlton Dove Mountain is a treasure at the foot of the Tortolita Mountains, located between Phoenix and Tucson in Marana, Arizona. It is an ideal escape for Valentine’s Day, whether you enjoy a day at the spa or an evening of romantic dining – or both.

Dining

The resort’s CORE Kitchen and Wine Bar serves outstanding dishes every day, but the romance menu offered on February 14, 2012 is extra special, creating an unforgettable meal for you and your sweetheart. The romance menu will be available from 5:30 to 9 p.m. and will include a decadent chocolate buffet.

Main courses offered include Grilled Beef Tenderloin with Green Asparagus and Dungeness Crab Béarnaise, Goat Cheese Soufflé Colorado Lamb with Truffle Gnocchi and Pan-Seared John Dory with Crushed Fingerling Potatoes.

The meal is $95 per person plus tax and gratuity, and does not include beverages. To make reservations for Valentine’s Day dining, call 520-572-3000. (Note: CORE Kitchen and Wine Bar and Ignite Lobby & Patio are already fully booked for the weekend before Valentine’s Day, Friday, February 10 and Saturday, February 11, 2012.)
