Yavapai Lodge Restaurant

Grand Canyon National Park South Rim


Breakfast buffet ($15) or à la carte; lunch and dinner are barbecue, hot and cold sandwiches and pizza, as well as beer and wine. Place your order on a touchscreen, pick up your drinks, and your number will be called when the food is ready. Efficient and convenient, but not much better than what you'd expect at a school cafeteria.
