Where to Eat in Bullhead City

Being a Bullhead City real estate broker, it’s not surprising that many of my posts here are closely related to Bullhead City real estate. You’ll find lots of market reports, stats, and detailed info about homes in the Bullhead City area.

Hey, I like a good statistic as much of the next guy (probably more), but numbers you can only entertain us for so long. That’s why I like to mix in other information about the area, including news and events in Bullhead City, Fort Mohave, Mohave Valley, Laughlin, and some state and national stuff as well. The goal, as the tag line says, is Connecting you to Bullhead City. That opens the door to anything that might be important to visitors and home owners in Bullhead City and the surrounding area. So the way I see it, if you live in Bullhead City, part time or full time, you’ve got to know where to get a good meal.

Over the next few weeks, I’ll be highlighting a few places I think are worth checking out in the Bullhead City area. First, you should know about my qualifications to comment on restaurants:

  • I like to eat – Let’s be real. I’m about as close to my high school weight as my high school age. I don’t miss many meals.
  • I like to cook – Call it a hobby. I get a kick out of cooking for people.
  • I’ve worked in restaurants – From delivery boy in high school to waiter to bartender to manager, I’ve spent my time in all parts of the restaurant. Yes, it’s been almost fifteen years, but it seems like the inner restaurant guy never quite goes away.

So the truth is I’m a bit of a snob when it comes to going out for a meal. If I’m going to part with a few bucks instead of cooking myself, it needs to be decent.

OK. Enough background. I’ll mention one place per post, and post maybe once a week on this topic for the next few weeks (in no particular order). Today I’m starting with the newest place to make my cut.

Pit Stop Grill

Pit Stop Grill is one of the few places to eat along the Bullhead Parkway, which makes them a convenient choice for many residents in neighborhoods such as Fox Creek, El Camino Village, Laughlin Ranch, and Desert Foothills, and also for those that use the Bullhead Parkway in their commute to Laughlin. They are open 7 days a week and even serve breakfast. It’s a very casual place offering dine-in, take out, and delivery.

Their menu has a surprisingly large selection and reasonable prices, particularly considering they make all their food to order. Try the Pit Stop Burger (Cheeseburger with bacon and avocado) and home made onion rings. Debra, the owner, tells me they season their ground beef and make their own patties in house. After eating one, I believe her.

They have all kinds of stuff, from salads to sandwiches, omelets to baby back ribs and pizza.

Pit Stop Grill, which has only been open a couple of months now, offers up a great combination of freshness, taste, and price, in a very casual setting. Well worth checking out.

I too am utterly amazed at the quality and price of the great food served at The Pit Stop. I recommend this place as the up and coming restaurant in the BHC area, I just hope it doesn’t get so Great that I cannot get in anymore.

Thanks, Allen. I’ll have to check it out. I haven’t been up there in awhile. I hope the burgers are as good as they were before…getting hungry already.
