The staff was friendly. The live music made for great atmosphere. The food was great!1/3 pound burgers made fresh were great. Our food came pretty quick and we were able to see the gun fight.I enjoyed the onion rings and fries with great burgers.The dollars all over the room was a cool sight. Hope to come back the next time I’m here.By the way, the name says hotel only for recognition, they don’t book rooms.

Wonderfully charming place to eat with home cooked food and huge portions. You won't go hungry or thirsty here. With over $300,000 dollars worth of dollar bills stuck to the walls and ceiling, this eatery does not lack any conversation. On occasion you will also get to see Big Mike come in from his wrangling and robbing in the streets (all for show). They make their own potato chips which are amazing when they cover them in cheese and garlic!! We've eaten here many times and everything has always been great. Still the pulled pork is simply the best when you pair it with the homemade chips and a bottle of Route 66 Root Beer. The Root Beer isn't on the menu, so you have to ask for it. Christa will help you out, she is a wonderful advocate of Oatman and is charming and gave us great advice on future stays. She didn't steer us wrong on our food either. Over all this place has so much character it's worth it to come in and have a drink or a samwhich to just take a look around and here some stories about how the dollar bills were left for the miners. You will probably see the burros out front as well because the smell of the food drew us in as well!!

There are no rooms to book here. This is a historic old hotel, now restaurant. This is a tourist town. It was fun here and saw the wild burros that visit the town.Walkability: Tourist town... Small downtown.

Not very far from Las Vegas, in the town called Oatman is the 'Oatman Hotel Restaurant & Bar' which has US Dollars stuck all over it. The site is very unusual since this is not merely a decoration theme but real currency notes, also called a 'Bill' in the US. I found this to be a cool place to check out while doing the Route 66 road trip in June 2023. These dollar bills were originally left there for the miners to buy food since they would go into the mines and come out after several weeks. These bills left for them by passersby would ensure they were not starved. The tradition continues to date, except people also write their names on the dollar bill. There is also a gift shop and museum attached to the restaurant, but they were closed when I visited.Noteworthy details: Dollar bills are all over the place.

It is a bar and a restaurant. It is not possible to stay overnight here. The ambience is funny, with hundreds of dollar bills replacing the paper on the walls. It was also suitably decorated for Halloween. The food was average but honest. The service was okay. We had sadwiches and soda. The place itself puts on a western show at noon-1pm. The restaurant was part of the holdup. That was funny.

Buffalo burger was delicious! It was my first choice. The prices are fair, and the service was great, especially considering the crowd they were accommodating. We met some friendly people there, too!Walkability: We chose to enjoy lunch there, but you must stroll about to enjoy this historic place!Food & drinks: Very tasty and good service.

This place was awesome! The town was created in 1915 as an old mining town and you can see that in how the town looked. There's a lot of tourist stuff there too unfortunately we didn't get to see everything and plan to come back again, also not only that but they had a western show in the middle of the day for everyone to see as well. There's donkeys as you walk around and in the middle of the street as you're driving there so please be careful besides that the whole thing was just a great experience.

The whole decor of the restaurant is very unique and I dig the vibe. Service was excellent and all the staff were extremely friendly and talkative.

This was a cool place to check out while doing the Route 66 road trip.I didn't eat there so I can't comment on the food or service.We were allowed to walk around and take pictures. It was AWESOME!There are over 400,000 $1.00 bills that are literally hanging everywhere a space could/can be found. And the Burros roaming freely about town and along the sidewalks of the shops are funny too.My sister & I had one that came from behind us and just walked right between us as we were walking down the sidewalk window shopping.

I went to the restaurant. Food was good. Drinks were good although watch the bottle beer. The one we got was skunky. But that could be because everyone else got the drafts. It's worth going to and giving it a try.Food & drinks: Very good

Our server was the best.I can not remember her name though unfortunately. As a first time mom who’s still uncomfortable with feeding my child in public she gave me words of encouragement and even offered me to go sit in a booth even though that side of restaurant was closed. She then brought me my drink and some of the appetizer while I was feeding. She was super friendly probably the best server I’ve ever had an encounter with.

Some of the most unusual wallpaper I’ve ever seen. Oatman Hotel Restaurant and Saloon is nestle in a quiet old gold and silver mining town. Right out of the old western movies that my Ma and Pa used to watch. A menu with many items to choose from including good old biscuits and gravy which I had ordered. Some of the best gravy I’ve ever tasted. Glancing over at other tables, where people were eating, the other items look delicious also. The locals which not only include those who live there, there are several boroughs wondering around the streets. Friendly and very hungry. If you like stepping back into history and love delicious tasting food, then give the town of Oatman, Arizona a visit and don’t pass up the Oatman Hotel Restaurant & Saloon.

If you're interested in checking out an early 1900s mining town? This is the place to go. It has interesting shopping and good food. On weekends, there are staged gun fights.Food & drinks: We ate lunch here, the food was reasonably priced and good.

The truth is that the Restaurant employees were extremely courteous. The concern is more about the clientele behavior. It's clear that some of your customers still instill poor interaction behavior with a variety of different cultures. As a owner of my own restaurant i have found that this can usually cause customers to stop returning.Again the service by all the employees was great. I believe that promoting better respect among all customers should be a big focus. By providing more server's helps to meditate the time frame of customers to customers interaction.
