Sometimes a taste of home is all you really want. But if you’re traveling or not up for the effort it takes to prepare and clean up after a homestyle meal, dining at a mom and pop restaurant is usually the next best thing. Homemade dishes, good flavors, and a smile are all it takes to make you feel right at home. Check out some of the small, family-owned restaurants that are hidden around Arizona.
Bill’s Grill in Prescott is just the place to visit if you’re craving a juicy burger. They also have quite a few vegetarian options (instead of just a plan veggie burger) for those looking for a meat-free meal.
