The Hudson
The most reliable sunset patio near Uptown, in the Hillside complex just south of the Y on SR 179. Panoramic red rock from a large outdoor terrace, New American food, and a cocktail programme that's a cut above the town average.
Expect a wait at peak times. It's popular, the patio is the whole point, and everyone wants it at the same hour.
The strategy: go earlier than you think, or accept an indoor table and come out for a drink on the terrace afterwards.

The Hillside complex it sits in has galleries and other shops, so a wait here is more pleasant than most — you can browse rather than stand.
It's also well positioned for the SR 179 corridor: if you're staying in the Village of Oak Creek or heading to or from Bell Rock, it's on your way in a manner that Uptown proper isn't.
Hours and prices change — check the restaurant's own site.
