Canyon Restaurant & Tavern Bar

It's a decent place to grab a bite after an afternoon of hiking. Service was alright and the food is not bad but we were served cold fries. It's just nice to get away from the Las Vegas heat and enjoy the nature and not have to cook . The portions are big so you'll likely have leftovers.

For years, we've longed to visit the mountains, but my old vehicle made the trip challenging. Now, with time on my side, I finally headed back to Mount Charleston. I used to love sipping hot cocoa at the lodge, but since it burned down, this restaurant was the best nearby option. Before going, I checked reviews, and something seemed off about the mixed feedback. Still, I convinced my wife to join me for a Father's Day dinner to see for ourselves, and I'm glad we did. Upon arrival, we found plenty of seating and a cozy, relaxing atmosphere. The hostess seated us by a window with a stunning view after swapping with another couple. Our server, Nick, was exceptional. His attentive service stood out, not just at our table but with other guests too. Despite some reviews mentioning slow or inattentive service from staff, our experience was flawless. I even observed other waiters and didn't see any issues. Nick recommended a unique starter, the Crispy Artichoke, which was absolutely delicious. We ordered two alcoholic drinks and our meals, and everything arrived perfectly timed. The food was flavorful, with generous portions we took home. My wife's dish was packed neatly, and Nick even included extra ranch dressing for my salad. This visit exceeded expectations. After yearning to escape Las Vegas's 113°F heat, this charming spot was the perfect retreat. We'll definitely return soon for another quick, delicious getaway. Thank you!

Waited 20+ minutes before asking again if we could be seated. They must have forgotten about us. They ended up seating us. We got the nachos and the charcuterie. The nachos tasted like they came from a gas station. Can cheese sauce, low quality ingredients. And I’ve never had a charcuterie I didn’t like until tonight. Skip this place. Trust me. Eat a sandwich. Our waitress was super sweet and attentive once we finally got seated.
