Up first javelina cantina.

Sunday is 50% off the entire menu. :)

We happened in there on Sunday coming back from Parker.

Best Refried Beans I've had yet in Havasu.. Had the Fajitas and they had a kind of sweet glaze on them. Unusual but very tasty. This isn't what I'd call "authentic" mexican food, but the food is one of the better places we have eaten at. Priced a little higher then most other places in town, but the location at the London bridge and quality of food make it a decent value in my mind, the 1/2 off Sundays make it a slam dunk.

Comments on Service (not judging the restaraunt on it just sayin).. On half off sunday the waiters are obviously football fans, because they spend more time rooting for their teams then checking on your table. LOL

2 sundays before I took a person there for their birthday, told the waiter it was her birthday.. reminded him it was her birthday.. No birthday song, no birthday ice cream. Again though was very interested in the game.

Ofcourse you think that shithole is good your White.... that place is a step above taco bell

dont forget the breakfast burrito from the pirate.

but really, dont forget to check Makai for breakfast

makai is good :thumbsup

La Vita Dolce. Little joint across from Arby's, where 2 Guys Pizza used to be. Great food, prices and service. That has been our regular spot for over a year now.

we liked 2 guys when it was there ... la vita dolce is good as well

It was way better with a moat out front, egg crates for insulation and business cards for wall paper!

Really? That was a sorry excuse for BBQ... and I gave them a second shot after a disapointing first.

Breakfast - Humbertos for breakfast burritos, or a meat lovers omelette at Black Bear

Lunch - wife barbecue on toon

Dinner - Chabones is best but you will drop some coin, the lamb chops are the shit, Dolce is very good and much more affordable, get the lasagne, and Angelinas is very good for all things italian but always packed

Whenever we drive to havasu, cha bones is a must. Maybe since we can't get a good steak in bullhead.

When Rusty's opened up her biz dropped quite a bit. Rusty's is wayyyy better breakfast plus you don't have to stand outside for 45 minutes to get one of 12 tables Peggys has.

You ever try Saltgrass in the Golden Nugget? I've had better, but the best for the area IMO.

Saltgrass is pretty good, The Range at Harrahs is good as well as the Gourmet Room in the Riverside. I used to like the Hickory Pit at the Edgewater but haven't eaten there in years

I went to Rustys before and it was just OK. I personally like Peggys better.

Yup, saltgrass is good. Just wish BH had the choices of food havasu does. Pretty limited IMHO.

Chicos tacos, juicys river cafe, Casa de Fernandez are all good!!!

Juicy's in Needles use to be good until I figured out why they call it Juicy's, instant "BUTT SOUP"!!

Saltgrass is pretty good, The Range at Harrahs is good as well as the Gourmet Room in the Riverside. I used to like the Hickory Pit at the Edgewater but haven't eaten there in years

Saltgrass is just fine for Laughlin, a step above Outback IMO, I like their salad dressings and their dirty rice(I think that's what they call it). The Gourmet Room, LMAO, I asked the waiter if their meat was Prime considering the prices, his response, "Choice is better than Prime" Walked out chuckling.
