We enjoyed Earl's for breakfast. My wife enjoyed an omelet. I decided to try the Navajo Burger. It was all great. The service was wonderful! Everyone was very welcoming and made us feel at home.

We've never heard of fry bread until I visited NM so wanted to give it a try. We found a spot nearby for lunch so stopped at Earl's. Staff was very family oriented and sweet. We split an order of fry bread to try. The burger bun was fried flat bread (frybread) which was interesting. Portion was huge and was tasty. Note that there are several vendors that will approach you and sell some native items. It's a great way to support the community. Overall a nice experience.

Great food, fast service, and with not many options in open when we came, it was perfect. The three kids we brought with us enjoyed the managers jokes and ice cream he brought them. It was definitely packed here.

As a truck driver I've been to my share of mom and pop restaurants. Ive had food in wouldn't feed a dog. HOWEVER THIS IS NOT ONE OF THOSE PLACES. Service was excellent from the moment we walked in we were seated and sat within a minute. YES the place was busy. After being sat we waited maybe 2 mins. Within 4 minutes we had drinks. We had service from multiple waiters that absolutely the best attitude towards Their jobs and customers. The facility was older in style but clean. If anything this place is a fresh step back in time to when the family restaurants where the only way to go. So if your looking for great quality and quantity of food this is your ticket. Well worth the 5 minute detour off the highway.
