Great brisket sandwich and wings! Definitely worth a detour on your way to Grand Canyon West to eat here, and make sure to ask the owner about his coin collection, you're in for a treat.

Hello,In May of this year, I visited your restaurant with my friend and had an excellent meal.For months I can't get the song out of my head, which was performed live at karaoke by a man who kindly gave us a ride home. We walked from our hotel to your restaurant and you advised us not to walk because of snakes and scorpions.The nice man/singer took us to our accommodation. We had a wonderful evening. However, I don't remember the title or the artist of the song. This makes me very sad and I would be happy to find out. The song seemed country. In the original it was also by a man and and I think the word remember appeared in the title. But I'm not entirely sure.greetings from GermanyIsabel
