Food Scene

My personal picks for some of the best food in the Verde Valley!
A local favorite, American and southwest food. Super casual. Different specials daily, and friendly service. Try one of their local craft beers on tap! They also have a coffee bar in the morning with full breakfast and bar open 7am-11am.

It's a long wait to get in, but it is well worth it. You must try the Elote, a delicious corn dip with homemade tortillas, and some of the best specialty margaritas I have ever tasted. Its best to get there around 4, since doors open at 430 and there is always a line!

Best breakfast in town, hands down. Try their huevos rancheros, or order a cinnamon roll the size of your head. Family owned and operated, their focus on fast and friendly service. Usually a wait to get in on weekends but it’s worth it. Once you have a table the food comes out quickly.
