Spending a day on the water definitely works up an appetite, and there isn't always a restaurant within walking distance of where you set sail. Luckily, Dillon's Bayou at Pleasant Harbor is located on Lake Pleasant, so you can tame that voracious hunger right away with some mouthwatering barbecue.

Located on the pristine Lake Pleasant, Dillon's Bayou is a floating restaurant that serves up some of the most finger-lickin' good BBQ in Arizona. It's the perfect place to grab a bite to eat after spending the day fishing, water skiing, or boating on the water.

Start your meal with one of many mouthwatering appetizers, including fried pickles, Bavarian pretzels, and both crispy and traditional chicken wings. Choose between mild, Cajun, sweet-heat, mango habanero, or hot sauce for dipping if you decide on the wings.
