    I love Americana and this place has it all- the only bar in the town of Dinosaur, a one motel town on the way to Dinosaur National Monument, with a pool table, a juke box, and a great grill. Do not miss their hand cut french fries or BLT. Lots of beer, some wine, and even free wifi. Okay, so pretty much everything on the menu is fried except the salads, but hey, that's what America is all about. And the locals, oh yeah-they are pure Americana, with friendly service even to non-locals.

    Everything burger...bacon, onions, mushrooms, green chiles, jalapeños, cheese, tomatoes, and lettuce ! A feast!

    Good food! This as a wide spot in the road in Dinosaur. Good basic cheeseburger at a reasonable price.

    My husband, son, and I each got the 1/2 pound burger and fries. They were delicious, and we were completely stuffed. Highly recommend!!

    Service was friendly and great. Tables in the back to sit down and eat. Burgers are tasty. Came on taco Thursday and enjoyed the tacos also.

    The proprietor/bartender/cook makes an excellent burger and does a great job of making tourists feel welcome!

    TL;DR - service and ribs made up for underwhelming aspects of an overall satisfying visit…read more This is a nice place - probably a 3 star, but it had enough redeeming qualities that it earned a four star. Upon entry, it was confusing: half the place is a bar, and half is family-friendly; however, there's no signage to indicate whether you seat yourself or wait to be seated. We got there around the same time as a large family got there, so we were just waiting around on the door mat, waiting dumbly. We had to wait for quite a while and there were plenty of empty tables that we could see. Once seated, however, it was nice. Our server was the paramount of cheery welcome. The beer samples are very affordable (like 0.50), so I got one of each beer on tap - all from Vernal Brewing Company (which was closed because Sunday). That said, there were only 3 sampling glasses - I think our server decided not to charge us for the 8 samples. Then, we got grilled cheese and Mac and cheese meals for the kids, 1/4 rack of ribs with side salad and fries. The grilled cheese came on Texas toast (read: thick), the Mac and cheese looked a lot like Kraft white cheddar. The fries were tough (either overcooked or stale before cooked), but they tasted really good, so they ended up being a highlight. The side salad was a bowl full of lettuce with an assortment of toppings sectioned on top (sliced tomatoes, whole olives, cheese, onions, cucumber, pepperoncini) overall, not bad, but without the space to mix the greens and/or mix it with the dressing, it was unwieldy. We ended up deconstructing and taking bites of lettuce dipped in blue cheese. The ribs were phenomenal - well cooked (juicy and tender but falling off the bone). The price we paid, however was less than optimal for a somewhat underwhelming salad and overdone fries (also, kids meals got more fries than the quarter rack of ribs). Overall, we had a big hiking day before evening rain, so it hit the spot. Would try again, though there may be other, more value-for-the-dollar places to check out if you're in Vernal on a Sunday.

    Not the best burger, not the worst Burger. Hit the spot after a long day on the via ferrata And the…read moreprices are reasonable.

Everyone was friendly, thumbs up for the service. The menu was on the pricey side, but not outrageous. The music was at the perfect level, low enough to allow you to carry on a conversation without yelling. It was still noisy, though. The surprising number of kids there at lunch didn't help. TVs hung from the walls, with the volume off. I ordered baked wings, naked with Cajun dry rub. They were slightly overcooked, otherwise the flavor was ok. Average. They weren't spicy to me at all though they claim the Cajun is supposed to be. Most disappointing is how tiny the wings were. I spent most of my time searching for any meat. Seven teeny tiny wings for 12 bucks. Very disappointing. I'd love a beer. It looks like a good selection, especially for Utah. Gout though. Ugh. My score: 4.5 stars for service, one for value, one for wing size, and three stars for taste, what little meat I could find to taste. Total? Two stars.
