American-style mexican food in a festive atmosphere. Ask for the (free) bean dip alongside salsa. The carnitas and fajita platters are really good. Relatively inexpensive margaritas.

Self-serve frogurt but you pay by the cup, not the weight. So for $3, you end up trying to fit as much yogurt and toppings in your cup as humanely possible. Fun game!

So, this is a little out of town, but if you're passing through Cottonwood, it's been around since the 1940s and has great "frosty" food & ice cream. Ridiculous amount of milkshake flavors.
