    Baby back ribs with potato salad.

    Ordered baby back ribs with a side. It was $16 for both. The ribs had great seasoning, The gentlemen provided great service, he mentioned the meat would fall off . Tried to get the meat off slightly and it fell off right away. Will defiantly come back. I am not sure if the establishment has indoor sitting. I picked up the food and paid at a window outside.

    This was the #1 stop I was most looking forward to on our recent trip to Williams. The two star…read morereview tells you this did not meet expectations. It wasn't a total waste but it definitely seems like things have changed since the rave barbecue reviews... We came in the early afternoon after a day of driving through monsoons with a toddler. The location is right as you drive into town, super welcoming, and very kid friendly - tons of contained outdoor play space, with lawn games, a mining area, a sasquatch statue for photos, and tons of covered seating. They even have wifi for me to get some work done. All plusses! Things took a steep turn when we went to order. After waiting in line, there is a tiny sign at the register that they are out of several products - no pulled chicken, pulled pork, texas twinkies, or wings. The last two were going to be in my order, so we did a quick pivot for a Partner Platter for $45, with ribs, brisket, sausage, mac and cheese, and beans. It should have been a red flag that they didn't ask if I wanted lean or fatty cut brisket. What arrived was a mess. My husband asked what proteins I got because it wasn't visually evident. The ribs had a bark on them that was 2/3rds of the way to jerky. The brisket was so shredded and dry, even their three house sauces couldn't save it. The sausage was served split and cut side town, because it too was dry AF. I hate letting protein go to waste but these were awful. Sides were fine, my toddler inhaled half the macaroni and the beans were okay. Cornbread has a bit of jalapeno in it, which I prefer over sweeter versions that are more common. But damn, this was a $50+ meal that basically fed a two year old. Service throughout was super friendly. It's not the food runner's fault that the kitchen is serving up dried out proteins and I am understanding about the fact that their walk in supposedly crapped out (the explanation we were given for so many items being unavailable). None of the other customers seemed visibly upset by their food quality, but I gradually noticed most people were ordering burgers, so maybe we ordered wrong. But if this is the norm for the barbecue they serve, they need to take it off the menu altogether. Great spot for kids to play and to stretch your legs after a long drive, or to enjoy the nice weather - but maybe just grab drinks or apps.

Cute nostalgia inside and family games outside. The service was super, the ribs were phenomenal, and the brisket sandwich hit the spot! Of note, only two unisex restrooms otherwise a hidden gem!

    We ate at Canyonlands Restaurant during our visit to Bearizona and, unfortunately, it was pretty…read moreunderwhelming. The setup is counter-service, and one thing that caught me off guard was being asked to choose whether we wanted to sit upstairs or downstairs before we'd even seen either area. I picked upstairs, but after getting up there, I probably would have preferred downstairs. The upstairs bar was closed, which made the space feel a little empty. Food-wise, everything was just... mid. I ordered the Smokehouse Burger with fries. The burger itself was fine, but there wasn't much flavor. The pulled pork on top was absolutely drenched in BBQ sauce that tasted like it came straight from a grocery store bottle, and it completely overpowered everything else. The fries arrived room temperature and bland. I ended up covering them in salt and dipping them in ketchup, which I rarely do. My boyfriend ordered the Buffalo Chicken Mac & Cheese. The mac and cheese didn't taste fresh, wasn't very hot, and was lacking flavor. The chicken was decent, and the bread on the side was okay, but nothing stood out. The one thing I really did enjoy was the theming. The restaurant fits the Bearizona atmosphere well, and I appreciated the rustic lodge feel. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the setting. The ingredients felt low quality, and there wasn't any exceptional service to make up for it. If we visit Bearizona again, we'll probably eat in town before heading to the park. I'm glad we tried it once, but once was enough.

"This place is one of them" PLEASE save yourself the run for the boarder and stay far away from this restaurant!! Seriously they are way,WAY overpriced and give you French fries that are cold and taste like cardboard, the taco meat is without a doubt scooped out of a can that tastes like it was opened a month ago and looks like... well you can use your own imagination, the food has so much salt that it taste like a salt lick! The food is straight up garbage and whom ever owns and operates the place knows it! and oughta be ashamed of themselves for serving people this crap!!With the amount of money we have to pay for it!! Shame on you!! People do yourselves a huge favor,bring your own snacks or wait to eat after you leave, don't subject yourself to this crap!! They are taking advantage of people because they are the only restaurant at the park!! SHAME ON CANYONLANDS!! SHAME, SHAME, SHAME ON YOU!!

Fortunately, we were able to find parking downtown. We love Italian food, so we decided to stop in here. The place was clean, and everybody was friendly and helpful. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. It's a quick service type set up You order at the counter, and then they bring your food to you. We asked what the turnaround time was, and the gentleman said about a half an hour. As I mentioned, the entire town was busy, so we decided to stay for lunch. Everything on the menu sounded good, but We decided to split the hog pizza, With. Tomato sauce, mozzarella, pepperoni, italian sausage and salami. They use a woodfired oven, which makes for a much higher quality pie.... Our food came at almost exactly a half an hour. It was a very decent sized pizza. The crust was perfect, and it was also a good quality, tomato sauce, with just a little bit of a "tang" to it. They were generous with the cheese and the meats, and you could tell that they were using a very good quality meat. It was an excellent pizza. They had a couple of "Arizona gunslinger" hot sauces is on the table. I didn't care for the red sauce, but I loved the green sauce. It's a jalapeño based sauce, but the jalapeño didn't take over the rest of the sauce. It had a complex slightly sweet flavor, and not too much of a "kick". It said "smokin ' hot" on the bottle, but it wasn't all heat. The complex flavor played very well with the heat I liked it so much, I asked if they sold it in their gift shop, and they said no, but there was a shop a couple of doors down that carries it. I wish I would remember the name of the shop. It was your standard gift shop, but they had a huge selection of hot sauces available I got my bottle, and I'm glad I brought it home. I love this stuff. I hear that you can also buy it in grocery stores around Arizona. The price for the pizza was extremely reasonable, for all we got, and as I mentioned, this place has a gift shop, as well as a full bar. This is a great place to stop for lunch or dinner. Thanks.

He greeted us as we walked in and told us we could grab a menu and come up to order with him when ready. We ordered one salad, a drink, and a salad. We placed our order with him at the front counter and he checked us out right away. The salad was brought out fast. The server was nice and asked if we needed anything else as he also brought out the pizza a few minutes later. The salad was good and we made sure to finish it all. It was cold, crisp, and had the right amount of toppings and dressing. The pizza was served hot and had the perfect amount of toppings. The food was all enough to spilt between us three.
