The Legal Tender Saloon & Eating House is a quirky and historic destination that offers a delightful dining experience. Beyond its charming atmosphere, it provides a nostalgic sense of authenticity, reminiscent of the old western days. The place is well-kept, featuring a limited but enjoyable menu with dishes like trout, chicken liver pate, and French toast special. Visitors often comment on the incredible atmosphere, with some enjoying the view across the railroad tracks and station (Depot) nearby. The service is friendly and efficient, with attentive staff who are accommodating and knowledgeable. Chef Murphy O’Brien’s dedication is evident in dishes like the mushroom soup, which is considered one of the greatest eaten. While some reviews mention mixed feelings about specific food items, diners appreciate the quality and taste of many options, including the green chili burger and kid burgers. Despite its remote location, the staff work hard to provide a memorable experience. The restaurant's unique charm is enhanced by the lack of cell service, making it a great place to disconnect while enjoying fantastic drinks and a welcoming atmosphere. Overall, The Legal Tender is a place worth traveling for.
