“Where Food and History Meet”

Relics is located at the historic Rainbows End in the Red Rocks of Sedona and is the town’s oldest operating restaurant.  Rainbows End, originally the Gibson Homestead and now our restaurant (pictured above), was built in the early 1900’s and once served as a general store.  In the 1940’s Ray Lawson purchased the property, built the barroom in the front of the building, started the restaurant and named it “Rainbows End” (inspired by “a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow”).  The Dancehall in the back of the building was added shortly thereafter.

The Dancehall, which now serves as the Nightclub, was formerly a community gathering spot and social club, a roller skating rink for a short period of time in the 1950’s and continues to this day to be the dwelling place for many ghosts that have been seen, heard, and photographed through the years.  The Barroom has entertained its share of western movie stars when filming in Sedona including John Wayne.  In 1965 a portion of “The Rounders” starring Glen Ford and Henry Fonda was filmed here at Relics.  The Pool Room adjacent to the Barroom was formally a breezeway connecting the front and back of the building.

In 2003-2006 the current owners meticulously restored the entire facility one room at a time exposing all of the original stone & wood work and utilizing the original materials and fixtures wherever possible.  The interior has been tastefully redecorated reminiscent of the luxurious aspects of the old west using period antique furniture, fixtures and decorations.

Throughout the years Rainbows End has been transformed from Sedona’s first town gathering spot to a western style steak house and now finally a full service fine dining restaurant and nightclub hosting the general public and a wide variety of private and special events as well as entertainment and dancing on Northern Arizona’s largest wooden dance floor.  Executive Chef and co-owner, Karen DeSalvo, proudly serves the highest quality char-broiled USDA Choice steaks and the best Slow Roasted Prime Rib in Arizona.  In addition, her menu includes a wide variety of exciting appetizers and salads, as well as signature fish and seafood dishes.  We hope you enjoy our classic-style cuisine in this historic setting as you combine your dining experience with a trip back in time.
