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

Try the Mohave Steakhouse. It is near the high school on 95. Great steaks and ribs.

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.
Ummmm let's see

Inspected
Select
Choice
Prime

Nope Prime is the the topper.

Picture of Pastrami sandwhich "panini" style. (yummy)
Which brings us to the next little restaurant.. Conveniently located a block or two from Casa RD is an old gas station converted to Hot Dog / Sandwich shop inappropriately named "Yogurt Time." They do have Frozen yogurt along the wall, but I'd wager they are selling 10 times the amount of hot dogs and sandwiches.

Their Hotdogs are the cats ass.. These things are so good one could even suggest them for breakfast. Their sandwiches are quality and I haven't had one I didn't like yet.

The downside, they are really new and invariably your order is gonna get fucked up. Order a chili dog and get a chicago, order an Italian and get a pastrami kinda shit.. LOL To be honest though I think it adds a little charm and "adventure" to the experience, and usually the substitute sandwich / hotdog looks more appealing then what I ordered anyways. :D

Last time I was there the owner gave me a free sandwhich card because my wifes sandwhich was a few minutes after mine. Really nice people, and I would definitely recommend giving the place a shot.

RD <--- going down to cash in his free sandwich right now actually.

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

Well i eat for free in there...lol. Honestly i usually order something besides a steak in there anyhow. The lobster bisque is very good. Never had a bad meal in the Gourmet Room and my prices are perfect ;)

Dave, I think you're gonna have to start over and lock the thread since this one went from being "Dave's Opinions" to everyone else's opinions:D:D:D

Todays lunch was at Casa Fernandez by everyone's recommendation. Took Aaron from Absolute to lunch and had a Taco and 2 cheese enchiladas.

I'll give it a one thumbs up. The taco was excellent, almost reminiscent of san diego quality. The enchiladas were good, but not the best I've ever had.

The waitress was friendly and on time.. :) Overall food was good and I paid what I would expect to pay in San Diego. 27 bucks plus a 7 dollar tip for 34.00.

Good food, but a little pricey for what it is I thought.
The taco was eaten by the time the pic was taken.. It arrived on a separate plate.

At cads Serrano right now.. Happy hour with .95 cent drafts! No bll on tap which I've already expressed my concerns over.. 1/2 off appetizers. I ordered the carbs nachos.

They brought out two salsas and some retried beans. Beans are good but spicy as shit! Beer is cold cold.. Update with nachos in a few

That's my least favorite Mexican restaurant in Havasu, but you can't argue that it's a good deal.

The carne nachos were pretty good.. The 4 drafts might have helped that.. But ate and drank and am merry for under ten bucks? Two thumbs up.. Lol

Plus the bartender Brian is pretty cool.

Went there one time and ordered. Huge portions I was happy and we all ate well. Then we saw bugs on the floor and the kitchen wall...
When we pointed this out what we called cockroaches they explained as local beetles that are EVERY WHERE? Never seen them before except there...

Three hours later my wife, son and I are fighting over the two bathrooms in our house. Thank god were weren't on the boat!

My neighbor works for the sewer department and has not had a meal there in 10 years. Regular sewer backups in the place.


Maybe it is better now....

Red Robin sucks anyway. I only eat there when they send me a "free burger for your birthday" and then I go home and spend 20min on the shitter :moon:
