My husband and son are very picky about their hamburgers. Me not so much, but they think Backroads Grill has the best burgers in the valley. They always get the huge burger.

They offer salads, barbecue and sandwiches. It is a nice friendly place. The food was good. We enjoyed having one of the owners sit and visit with us.

The restaurant is pleasant and their burgers and mexican food are pretty good. Their green chili is wonderful. They used to brew their own beer but no longer do so. They do have a couple of beers on tap.

The guacamole looked and tasted like they bought it at Walmart. Other than that it was good and so were the fires. My wife started with the... More

we tried to check out this place, but never got served. After several minutes, we never even got a menu. We left, but I'm not sure anyone noticed!

This is a locals hangout. We were the only customers that the waitress did not know. Service was quick and friendly and the hamburger was juicy. They have a wider menu and brew their own beer.

below average food, TERRIBLE "micro brews". The one employee working the dining room was unfriendly (only 2 other, small parties). The restaurant feels empty inside, fake plants, odd light fixtures. So much is off about this place.
