From quick grab-and-go's to exquisite luxury dining overlooking the Grand Canyon, here's a little something for every traveler looking to fuel up during their visit.
Grand Canyon Lodge Dining Room
Diners can enjoy their meals while taking in breathtaking panoramic views of the canyon. Be sure to try the Ponderosa Smoked Brisket Platter, smoked for 16 hours. Dinner times between 5-7 pm can fill up weeks, or even months in advance, so be sure to plan ahead.

This unique and memorable culinary experience is located at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. Meals are served family-style at long tables, giving hikers and visitors a chance to share stories and meet fellow adventurers. Steak, chili, cornbread—it's the American way!

The dining hall offers a wide range of meal options throughout the day. For breakfast, guests can indulge in hearty choices like the Yavapai Traveler’s Breakfast, featuring cage-free scrambles, French toast with prickly pear syrup, and house-seasoned breakfast potatoes.
For dinner, enjoy unique dishes like venison meatloaf, spiced cornmeal-crusted catfish, and fajitas, paired with creative sides such as Southwest creamed corn and chipotle-rubbed cauliflower.

Located near the Grand Canyon's South Rim, you'll likely feel the price pinch due to its prime location. BBQ pizza by the slice is a solid choice for a quick fill-me-up.
See MoreEl Tovar Hotel
The "go-to" spot for a great dinner, El Tovar, established in 1905, is a notch above the rest. If you're craving a delicious steak, pork chop, chicken, or their famous French Onion Soup, this place has you covered.
See MoreBrewed Awakenings Coffee Co.
A great spot to stop for those traveling to and from the Grand Canyon along Interstate 40. It might be the best coffee pitstop you’ll find in Arizona.

The signature Navajo taco is a must-try, featuring fry bread topped with ground beef, beans, green chile, lettuce, tomato, and cheddar cheese. Give it a try for an easy grab-and-go snack.
See MoreHarvey House Cafe
Two recommendations: Sonoran Stuffed Jalapeños—deep-fried jalapeño peppers stuffed with cream cheese, served with cucumber ranch dressing—and Guacamole Monterey, a classic dish from the El Tovar Dining Room menu, served with tortilla chips.
See MoreFoodie Club
I prefer the lunch here, especially their club sandwiches, chicken bacon ranch wraps, steak sandwiches, and vibrant salads.
See MoreSky View Restaurant
The West Rim, operated by the Hualapai Tribe, is home to the Skywalk, a glass bridge offering breathtaking canyon views. The restaurant here has floor-to-ceiling windows that showcase dramatic vistas, making it a perfect spot to enjoy both great food and stunning scenery.
