Just had the best chicken quesadilla ever here. Josh was the chef who created this masterpiece. What an amazing creation. It is a must try, whether as an appetizer or entree. He grilled the tortilla to a golden crispy brown and filled it with seared chicken that was so flavorful, and lots of cheese - yum! Served with sour cream and delicious salsa. I can’t wait to go back!

3rd time eating and 3rd time meals were wrong and way overcooked. For the money you think they could at least make the right food. Never again

Dirtwater Springs has been around ever since I can remember, over thirty five years at least. I rarely go there these days because it's a gamble as to what kind of experience I will have. The food and service is the best part of Dirtwater Springs. Unless you get it to go. I don't think they pay that much attention to their to go orders. Luckily I don't usually order to go food here. This last time I was really disappointed. I ordered their jalapeño popper burger, which I believe they call 'dismantled jalapeño poppers in a burger' (the cream cheese, jalapeños, crunchy onions, beef patty. Great concept, the order taker even asked how I wanted it cooked. But that's where the order actually dismantled. I answered that I wanted it medium and it came well done, actually overcooked. Wompwomp... And the bun wasn't toasted or even heated. Straight from the fridge actually. The patty was smaller than I expected and hanging off to the side. The best part of my order was their amazing pineapple cole slaw. Something I recently discovered and I actually came back for this time.
About the atmosphere, they have an old Western Saloon look and it stands out. It's actually pretty cool. The problem I find almost everytime I go there is that bad musty smell when you first walk in there. Like they mop the floors with the original mop from the grand opening. It's not so bad once you pass through the bar area to the restaurant seating area. The old wooden floors are slatted and you can see right through them which sounds cool but isn't actually.. You can tell they're probably original to the building. The look is Old Western but the smell shouldn't be...
As for the staff, I've never had any problems with them, they are always friendly and professional. This is a holiday weekend (Independence Day) and they looked short handed so I'm not deterred. I'll always come back to this place because it's an Apache Junction monument, but I think if they paid attention to the atmosphere, from the customer's point of view and maybe updated the floors which is the biggest issue I believe they would be the main hot spot in AJ like they used to be.

I've eaten at dirtwater springs for years, But I was in about 3 weeks ago I was very disappointed in my experience there this time. The food that I ordered was splattered onto my plate like a bug on a windshield, I ordered a cup of fruit, When I tried to eat it I noticed something moving there were bugs on the fruit in the fruit was borderline rotten. Needless to say I don't think I'll ever be back to this establishment.

We had a great meal here. I had a Bloody Mary and the olive burger. The burger was cooked perfectly! We will definitely be back! Thank you Chloe for the great service!

I hadn’t been to this restaurant in a couple years. It was unappealing and smelt weird. I was meeting my date for the first time. This is where we chose, but we ended up leaving never ordered any food.
