Pine Country Restaurant, Arizona Highways

Comfort food reigns supreme at this homey Williams restaurant, best known for its piled-high pies and classic breakfasts.

Horn of Plenty, Arizona Highways

Angus burgers, herb-crusted rack of lamb, pan-seared trout... the menu at the Horn Saloon shatters stereotypes about "bar food."

Los Corrales, Arizona Highways

Fresh octopus isn't a common menu item in the White Mountains, but at Los Corrales its one of many surprises.

Grand Canyon Coffee & Cafe, Arizona Highways

Although the menu is all over the map, with American, Mexican and Chinese dishes, locals and tourists alike line up to eat at this mainstay along Historic Route 66.

Join the Club, Arizona Highways

Blueberry and walnut pancakes dusted with powdered sugar, coffee-charred breast of chicken salad, mountainous creme pies, locally roasted coffee... the ever-popular Bisbee Breakfast Club may look like a diner, but its menu goes way beyond bacon and eggs.

Mean Eggs & Ham, Arizona Highways

The Ranch House isn't fancy, as evidenced by the worn linoleum lunch counter and the vinyl swivel stools, but nobody cares. Customers show up for the food, which is house-made, abundant and delicious.



Bear Necessity, Arizona Highways

In Alpine, there's one place that can cater to nearly any craving, be it for burgers or tacos or chicken-fried steak. And though the menu at Bear Wallow Cafe is diverse, it does contain something that you simply shouldn't overlook. Pie. Delicious, homemade pie.

Mexican Evolution, Arizona Highways

Jeff Smedstad gained acclaim for his take on Mexican cuisine at Los Sombreros in Scottsdale. Now he's doing the same thing at Elote Cafe in Sedona.



Going Deutsch, Arizona Highways

Located on historic ranch property in Tubac, Stables Ranch Grille specialized in German, not Spanish, cuisine. It's a little surprising for a menu in a border-town restaurant, but the chefs in the kitchen are wholehearted about their sausages, sauerkraut and pan-fried potatoes.
