“All residents of the Morongo Basin know that our home doesn't have much of a bar scene, which is fine for the granola munching rock climbers, ganja purists, and christian conservatives that prolly make up 90% of the population, but for those of us who love downing beer and belting along with the jukebox, making new best friends whose names you won't remember, or need a place to kill time before returning home up or down the hill, then the Monument Bar might be your home-away-from-groan! I'm always surprised that none of my acquaintances have heard of it, but then again, it IS the kind of place you'd miss even if you were looking for it. if you're headed there from Yucca, when you get to Cactus Mart, keep looking left and DON'T BLINK. When I lived in Morongo Valley I would try to go in at least once a week, because if I've learned one thing in 47 years of gypsy wandering it's that there's nothing like a good locals bar. It's a melting pot to be sure, the place could be full of scary bikers one day, and full of pronoun-defying LGBT's the next, but this, of course, is exactly what makes the place so great, and if you've been going there long enough, you can always take refuge with the regulars.
I could write the next Great American Novel describing the place if I hunch over my keyboard long enough, but I'll try to wrap this up with some "things done right" bullet points:
- daily drink specials
- taco Tuesday, and usually some kind of special on Hallmark Holidays
- outdoor patios (equipped w/ fire pit in the winter)
- a bewildering number of menu items for such a small place, if you're the indecisive type, just get the signature monument burger...and the food is also bewilderingly good for pub fare, and if judged in that context, bump my 3-star rating up to 4.5
- Chad is a great bartender. Treat him well, and he'll return the compliment.
That should do it. I should've made a review years ago, and a recent visit reminded me how remiss I've been, even under new ownership, it was exactly liked i'd hoped it would be...as if a month had gone by and not a year. I <3 this bar!

“We were in the area, found this restaurant and decided to give it a try! It looks like a Dive Bar from the outside and when you go inside it still looks like a Dive Bar!
BUT:
The service was great, the food was great and the price was great!“

“The mole enchiladas were TO DIE FOR! I cook mole and this recipe has me stumped, the presentation is also 10/10 The staff was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The chips and salsa were excellent as well and I had the Jamaica agua fresca and it’s was just sweet enough any sweeter or diluted would be too much!!! Definitely coming back!!!“

“Excellent food. Lamb was tasty but cooked well, spicy and flavorful. Chicken the same with mild and very savory sauce. Naan bread was crunchy but not dry and still able to scoop sauce. Loved it!“

“Gosh! This place is Ah-Mazing!! 🥩🍗🔥 Our Party of five loved every bite! The drinks are amazing. Atmosphere wonderful. Our server Jesse was fantastic and super helpful. Very friendly too! Beside a super cute little ghost town!
We had the bison burgers made medium rare. They were fantastic. Our server recommended medium rare for them not to be dry. We had the ribs and they were to die for. Also the pork sandwich was fantastic an very flavourful. We plan to go back on this trip!
HIGHLY recommend this for wonderful real American grill!!!!“

“Kid-friendliness: The staff was wonderful and the chef is incredibly gifted with his perfectly balanced dishes in flavor, size and pairing. I cannot wait to come back- I’ve already eaten here twice in a row with my boyfriend on our anniversary trip.
Amazing hard shell tacos reasonably priced at $2
Do not miss out on these or the Palomas;)“

“This is the best pizza I have had! My delivery was fast and by accident it wasn't completely accurate when we received it, humans make mistakes. When I called to see if it could be fixed they were so apologetic and instantly and very kindly corrected it. Honestly, best pizza in the west! Thank you so much! Everyone, go get you a slice.“

“The ham egg and cheese breakfast burrito is literally the Mexican breakfast hot pocket you never knew you wanted 1000/10. The ham cube chunks are plentiful in the burrito. Construction worker approved, I can never finish it it's so big, definitely shareable ?“

“DHS does not have many culinary standouts! But I have to say wow, this place is one of the best I have had in multiple states including DCs China town!
This place is somewhat hiding, dark and not lit well, but well worth the trip! One dish that is absolutely amazing and I have never had before was the coconut shrimp! It’s not your typical dry tempura type, not at all! You must try,
The Beef Lo Mein, fried rice, all excellent dishes. I sampled several other dishes all excellent! Cheese or “crab Rangoon” is good not great. I have been 4 times and they have been consistently great each time.
They have several specials $18 for fried rice choice of beef lomein, and other dishes an egg roll, 2 cheese Rangoon, I don’t have all the details but be sure to check out the specials they are pretty cheap.
My meal of fried rice, beef Lo Mein, egg roll, crab Rangoon, coconut shrimp was $41 total amazing!!!“
