Likes: + Decent food hits the spot. + Free Wi-Fi in the vicinity, considering most of us didn't have service. + Nice, helpful staff. + Pleasant interior ambience. . Service speed was decent. Non-likes: - Not a lot of healthy options. - Somewhat expensive. Granted, it's in the middle of nowhere and travelers can't be much choosers. - Unfortunately it's the only restaurant option in this lot. Not a variety of culinary style options. - My first time ever seeing a to-go charge. I had: $24 Buffalo Bison Burger + $3.25 Lemonade + $11 Seasonal Berry Tart + $2 to-go charge + tax = $43.37 Note: your digital receipt may identify the restaurant name as "SQ Destination Death Valley".

Pretty solid place for breakfast at death valley national park. They have a breakfast buffet for around 14 bucks. They have a large feature of breakfast items such as bacon, turkey sausage, sausages, corned beef hash, hash browns biscuits and gravy and many other's that make it worth it. The coffee and juices are unlimited. The staff is very attentive, informative and very helpful. They were super polite and friendly and we had a good experience with their service.

If you've ever been to Death Valley, dining options are limited. With that said, I enjoyed my meals here. We stayed a couple nights here and had breakfast and a couple of dinners. For breakfast, it's a buffet with corned beef hash, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage both turkey and pork, french toast, pancakes, biscuits and gravy, oatmeal, cereal, yogurt, juices and fresh fruit. I thought it was good. For dinner, I had their burger and fish and chips. I was pleasantly surprised as I expected a frozen patty basic burger but the patty was handformed, thick and juicy. The fish and chips was also surprisingly good. Given the limited options, I think this place was pretty decent.

I have seen some negative reviews of this place but I feel when you leave reviews you have to take into consideration where you are and be realistic about the amenities and experience. No this isn't a five star restaurant nor somewhere one would go out of the way to eat at. This is the only restaurant on these grounds and with that the food is good and staff are extremely hospitable and friendly. Prices are very reasonable especially when one considers this is only eating option so they could gouge and get away with it. There are enough different food options to satisfy most people including a vegan meatball sandwich and breakfast buffet which was only. $13.99. Great value for food and service was very prompt. Again people, you can't review every place with the same eyes. Trust me I love a nice 3 star Michelin restaurant from time to time and am definitely a foodie who likes great food. You just have to grade things with a sliding scale when you're in the desert and options are limited. Great country style experience and pleasant visit.

This review is inflated by the fact that dining options are very limited in Death Valley. On a hot day, it is wonderful to walk into an establishment and be served ice cold water. The service is friendly though understandably short of staff; I'm assuming we came at a time when they didn't expect so many simultaneous visitors. Upon entering, either sit in the restaurant or the saloon. We had fast service in the saloon. Although the prices are a little more than what I would've liked for the quality of food, once again this is Death Valley, and I definitely enjoyed this meal enough. I would say the "handheld" items are most worth it for price/amount/taste.

Food (4/5): The food was decent, especially after a long drive. I had the Chicken Wrap, which comes with fries. Nothing in particular was special. The food was a bit pricey, but to be expected. The fries portion was huge. I would come again if driving and exploring thro h Death Valley as it is the first restaurant coming in. Service (4/5): The staff were friendly, and my party of 4 could be seated immediately sitting at the Saloon. You serve water yourself. There is also free Wi-fi within the restaurant. Ambiance (4/5): This place has very Southern vibe to it, with Southern music playing in the background. The place had a good amount of business on a Saturday afternoon. Bathrooms were quite clean as well.
