5 Best American Restaurants in Death Valley

“Came here for a brunch/lunch. I got the chilli and it was delicious and a large portion! I would definitely get it again. We sat outside and it was very peaceful and beautiful I loved it. We even saw a coyote! Service was great, and really the price wasn’t bad for the location and other factors.“

“Really solid meal at Badwater Saloon. The food took a bit longer than expected, but the staff kept drinks filled and made sure we were comfortable while we waited.

Everything we ordered was delicious. The pizza was well cooked with great flavor, the elk chili was rich and hearty, and the vegetarian pasta (we added chicken) was perfectly done and very satisfying. You can tell care goes into the food here.

Worth the wait for quality dishes, and we’d happily stop in again.“

“I have visited the Inn on multiple occasions to capture wedding photos! The major upside of staying here, regardless of the downsides, is just how close it is to the popular spots in the park. Other hotels are just not as close since everything outside of the park is far away. It's also a beautiful location with some good amenities. Just keep in mind that the park is still remote and this location can sometimes lose electricity. It's all a part of the fun!“

“What a great find in the desert! Huge fresh salad, cup of bison chili was great, fries are excellent. Hubby’s Burger and fries also very good. Soup was good too! Lots of ice water to help ourselves to- perfect when is over 100 degrees ! Would definitely recommend

Vegetarian options: Yes some available- the fresh salad was great!“

“Really good dinner. Everything tasted fresh and comforting without being heavy. The pasta was flavorful and satisfying, and the fish was cooked perfectly. On top of that, the atmosphere really made the night — warm, rustic, and full of character, with a lively buzz that made it feel welcoming and fun. Simple, well done, and a great place to enjoy a relaxed meal.“
