    Cameron Trading Post - Navajo Vegetarian Taco

    Great experience at Cameron Trading Post Restaurant during our last night in Arizona! We originally…read morestopped because there's a Shell gas station right next door and we needed gas, but once we looked over and saw the restaurant, we checked Yelp, saw the great reviews and photos, and decided to give it a try. So glad we did! After several days of driving, hiking, and kayaking, it was really nice to finally sit down and enjoy a relaxing dinner. There's also a Native shop attached to the restaurant, which was fun to browse through before eating. The restaurant itself is toward the back, and the restrooms are conveniently located nearby, so I was able to freshen up and change before dinner after being outdoors all day. I ordered the deluxe cheeseburger combo, which totally hit the spot, while my friend got the beef stew with Native fry bread. I'll admit, I was a little jealous when I saw her dish because it looked so warm and comforting after the chilly weather and all the kayaking and hiking we had done earlier that day! Thankfully she let me try the fry bread, and it was delicious. The atmosphere was welcoming, the food was great, and it ended up being the perfect way to wrap up our Arizona trip. Definitely recommend stopping here to fill up on gas and grab a good sit-down meal while passing through!

Interesting things stand the test of time here. I've been told boys born around 1920 used a Spanish armor breastplate to slide on village dunes. In Old Oraibi, beans and bean stems in a pot placed in an underground storage area and forgotten, carbon dated at Northern Arizona University to about 800 CE/AD. Cameron Trading Post and the first bridge across the Little Colorado are in that swirl of time. Stone architecture from 1916 or earlier, stands solidly in place. Most indoor areas are modernized. Some dining room decorations date to the early years. The pressed tin ceilings were common in my grandparent's world - and rusted away long ago in most of the USA. The main trading post has everything from old, valuable, regional items, to gleaming eye-grabbers from China luring toddlers and youngsters into tantrums. There are also food and other useful items for everyday life, like hanks of wool yarn, etc. The restaurant has excellent, regionally based dishes for your dining appreciation, wspecially the giant, hefty, Navajo Taco. There's a hotel here. A woman I knew, losing her hundred years alive to COVID in 2021, worked in the hotel as a teenager. Gas Station, apparently an RV Park, another great shop full of antique Southwest treasures are on the grounds. This is an exceptional stop on the Colorado Plateau.

    I came to this location while visiting Navajo Nation on December 20th, 2023. I ordered a few items…read moreto get a sample of what the location has to offer and to support the Navajo! What I got: Navajo Tacos Navajo tacos are deliciously crispy on the outside and are made with fry bread and topped with a meaty mixture of taco seasoned ground beef and beans, then all the traditional accouterments like sour cream, shredded lettuce, cheddar cheese, and tomatoes. The Navajo Taco fry bread is similar to a funnel cake. The side of salsa served with this taco provided a kick to the back of the throat (in a good way)! When on a tour of the Navajo Nation, I learned the Navajo saying dah díníilghaazh, or bááh dah díníilghaazh, refers to frybread. Bááh can be a blanket term for baked goods, or for breads. Dah díníilghaazh describes the process of creating frybread, specifically. Further, the first Navajo taco was created by Lou Shepard, who worked for the tribe in the 1960s as manager of the Navajo Lodge. If given the opportunity to try these tacos, don't pass it up! Mutton Stew What I learned about this dish on my tour of the Navajo Nation: Mutton stew consists of mutton simmered in a simple broth and is often accompanied by fry bread, a form of unleavened bread that became a staple of the Navajo diet during their forced Long Walk and internment at Bosque Redondo during the 1860s. Sheep were introduced into the Americas by the Spanish in the sixteenth century, along with horses and cattle. During this time, the Navajo traded and raided for sheep from the Spanish. This stew I ordered was filling and hearty. This stew was made with mutton, onions, garlic, thyme, tomato purée, celery, carrots, potatoes, hispi cabbage, sweetcorn and black pepper. All of the full flavors could be tasted throughout the stew. This dish was accompanied by frybread and honey. I placed these meals to go while I shopped inside of the Cameron Trading Post. The dishes took approximately 20 minutes to be prepared. The service received from the cashier was courteous and warm. The Navajo dishes were made fresh and were filling. In total, I ordered Mutton Stew, two Navajo Tacos, and a chicken wrap with fries, which came to about $50 (I believe). #ThankyouNavajoNation #supportlocal

Great decor and nice ambiance. Large TVs screens to watch the game. It's a great little hang out spot. We were greeted and seated promptly. Chips and salsa aren't complimentary. My youngest opted for the supreme nachos. My oldest and I decided on the taco combo plate. The menu makes it seem like you're limited to certain types of tacos, but our server informed us that's not the case. I went with the Al pastor which was incredible and the carne asada, which was also good. Rice and beans were on point and I loved the salsa they brought out with the food--a verde an a roja, both were excellent. Everything was so good! It was the perfect send off for us as we made our journey home.

Our server basically tossed the menus on the table and walked off, and it took about 20 minutes just to get water. The staff seemed overwhelmed and not particularly friendly--people were literally raising their hands just to get someone's attention. Then we waited another 30 minutes for the food, which was just okay, nothing special. Overall, definitely not worth the hype. This place just isn't it.

I'm not expert but I approach everything with unbiased expectations as much as possible. A quick Google search can provide high level insight even though it isn't necessarily consistent across all interactions or people. Initially I thought it was called Hogan because of a family last name but research suggested it is more about the Hogan traditional dwelling. Ambiance and decoration suggests that as well. Beautiful wood and earthy decor. Not overly bearing but rather great balance. People were kind but not overly attentive like I'm used to at American restaurants but again it is more aligned with communication styles and culture. Your experience could be different based on your server just like any other restaurant. Our server was kind, respectful and provided great service. He also would remember guests from different countries who shared sayings in their native languages which he repeated to us as greeting and also goodbyes. It was impressive and well thought which I appreciated. Now onto the food. I enjoyed my mutton stew with fry bread. I am used to more flavorful stews but this stew was cooked very well and delicious. I added a bit of salt and pepper but honestly it was good without it. Mutton was soft and not gamey. Vegetables were well cooked and soft. Fry bread was tasty and freshly fried. It was not overly greasy and excellent to rip and dip into the stew. I actually feel really good after my meal. Overall enjoyed it, again, because I was open and understanding of differences. No complaints about my experience. If you are stopping by for the first time, I hope you also have the same experience.

We grabbed a couple different kinds, split them up, dressed them with whatever little garnishes they had, and just sat there taking it all in. I made a point to wander the village, soak it up, and burn it into memory--because it feels like the kind of place you might only see once. It was hot brutally hot the kind that wears you down. But somehow that made it better. Exhaustion, hot fry bread, a cold beer in hand, and that canyon all around you... it just clicked. Nothing fancy, nothing overdone just simple, good food in a place that makes it feel perfect.

It was totally opposite to the name it has and lived up to people's reviews. We tried to have the bread next to the cafe in the village. The lady running the hut was friendly and reminded me of my mother. That's how sweet she was. My order: Sweet bread - with Nutella, powdered sugar and bananas. Indian taco - with Tomatoes, lettuce, beans, & cheddar garnish It tasted heavenly since you starve for days camping and when you get a hot food it is the best. The ingredients were fresh and the bread was not too soggy nor crispy to the core. It was perfect. I was able to look into the kitchen. The process was straigh-forward. Make a circular bread dough from the dough on the table and put the bread dough into boiling oil and take it out when it was crisp and filter out the oil and add the ingredients and toppings.This is not just about the food, it is an experience.

Most of the local places didn't have great reviews, but this one had better than most. Bonus was we were staying at the Red Feather Lodge right next door, which offers meal discounts with proof of room key. We didn't have to wait for a table. Service was great. They were prompt with our drink refills and chips and salsa. The salsa was great! The place looks a bit dated, but was still a nice place to sit down for a meal. The menu is large and extensive, guaranteeing something for everyone. My youngest got the birria plate, my oldest got the camarones Vallarta and I decided to go with the chile Colorado.

Go for the chips and salsa, the same great taste as the location on Carefree Highway in Phoenix The bad, I ordered the Mexican stirfry as I do in Phx location always excellent. At this location the veggies were dried out, very little chicken and the little bit of cheese was also dried out, I never return a meal but this time I did, got the Carnitas, it was just ok and extremely over salted My hubby ordered the Pollo Asada Burrito, the kicker there was more broccoli and green beans than chicken . Never heard of this. Extremely disappointing. Will stick to the Phoenix location that is excellent.
