I did not have high hopes for El Tovar - it has a piece of prime real estate overlooking the South Rim so I didn't expect it to focus on good food. But suprisingly, the food was very good and it was not that expensive for what it is - fine dining in the Park The portions were very large... More

We had wine and snacks at the El Tovar Lounge during our visit to the Grand Canyon. The wine list was good, we had the crab cakes and the mozzarela snacks. Both were good. Tracy was our server and she was outstanding. It was great way to unwind and people watch during the evening.

Our family stopped to enjoy a sunset drink on the outside terrace of El Tovar. We were fortunate enough to have a charming waiter who was very helpful and considerate.
