Judi’s Restaurant

Judi’s has been the neighborhood supper club in West Sedona for nearly four decades, in a quaint set of dining rooms off Soldiers Pass Road. Founder Judi Keiser gave it her name; since 2013 Gary and Alice Simmons have run it, and Alice still makes the desserts from scratch. Everything else is scratch too: the bread, buns and dinner rolls, the soups, the salad dressings and the ice cream. It is where locals bring visiting parents.

What to Order

• Char-broiled steaks: the 8-ounce top sirloin ($28 at lunch, $30 at dinner) and the New York strip ($36 for 8 ounces, $42 for 10).
• Burgers: the cheeseburger $18, the Sedona burger $22 to $23, bleu and Bocchi burgers $21 to $22, and a patty melt $20.

• Dessert is the reason regulars save room: Judi’s famous pecan pie, bread pudding with rum raisin sauce, butter brickle chocolate chip cream cheese pie, key lime and double chocolate cheesecakes, and the triple-decker orange-frosted carrot cake.
