Tusayan, AZ is small. There's the park entrance, a few hotels, some gas stations — and then there's The Foodie Club. If you're asking where to eat in Tusayan before or after the Grand Canyon, the answer is straightforward: we're the most-reviewed restaurant in the area with 4.3 stars and over 2,100 reviews on Google.
That's not an accident. It's what happens when you serve real food, at honest prices, to thousands of tourists who come back and tell the internet what they think.
Why Tusayan Tourists Choose The Foodie Club
All-Day Breakfast — Including After 11 AM
One of the most common complaints about restaurants in Tusayan is that breakfast ends at 11. Ours doesn't. We serve breakfast all day — so whether you got up early for sunrise at Mather Point or slept in after a long hike, the Avocado Toast, Big Breakfast Platter, and All American Breakfast are still available.
We've been called "the best breakfast of our 7-day Arizona trip" more than once. That's the Google review, not us. We'll take it.
A Full Bar — Rare in Tusayan
Most restaurants in Tusayan are either cafeteria-style park food or national chain fast food. We're neither. We have a full bar with craft cocktails: the famous Carajillo, House Margarita (mango, strawberry or banana), Grand Canyon Mule, Tequila Sunrise, Piña Colada, and more. Plus Grand Canyon Amber Ale on draft.
Happy Hour runs daily 3–6 PM and 9–10:30 PM. Draft beer $8.99, cocktails from $9.99. Details at our Happy Hour page.
The Actual Food Is Good
This sounds obvious, but it matters in a tourist town. Our Carne Asada Fries are the most photographed item on the table — french fries topped with carne asada, Colby Jack cheese, avocado sauce, sour cream, and pico de gallo. The Blazing Beef Burger gets ordered at every table that has one. The Southwest Salad with grilled chicken disappears fast.
Everything comes out in 10–15 minutes. Counter service keeps things moving. You don't wait 45 minutes for a burger at a tourist restaurant on a Saturday in April.
A Space Worth Sitting In
We have a comfortable interior and an outdoor sunny deck — which, for Tusayan, is unusual. The canyon views aren't from the deck (you need to drive to the rim for that), but the atmosphere is good. Games for the kids, space for groups, natural light. Not the sterile booth-and-fluorescent-light experience you'd expect.
