Driving from Prescott to Moab tends to limit the number of choices for lunch. Happily, when we were ready, the Amigo was there. The elote dip was fantastic. Not usually a fan of pork rinds, but these were tasty. I had never had a Navajo taco, so I went for it. No disappointment, it was really good. I especially enjoyed the mango habanero lemonade. Two things: 1. it's small so you might have to wait a bit (it's worth it) 2. No alcohol, so if you're looking for a cold brew, you won't find it here. read more

Great experience, fresh & innovative food. So glad we checked it out I had the 3 sisters burrito, which was quite sweet, so I'd order something different next time. Highly recommend Amigo Cafe read more

Amigo Cafe - 3 sisters burrito and chicken enchiladas. Also, they're green salsa, which comes complementary with chips, is divine - Mexican Near Me - Kayenta, Arizona

Besides fast food places to eat are very limited in this area. We were staying at the Goulding Lodge and honestly I'm was not I. The mood for any of their food. So on our way there we decided to have dinner here and I'm glad we did. With time in hand. I searched Yelp and the reviews got me. We arrived and there was no one waiting outside, but the place was full. You need to wait outside or you can write down your number and they'll give you a call. We waited about 30 minutes to be called inside. It was so nice and cozy inside. The little fire place was running. It was perfect. I had the three sisters burrito. It's basically a veggie burrito smothered in their mole salsa. It was delish. My daughter had the pork taquitos and my husband combination plate. We started with the chips and salsa. The salsa was pretty spicy. I thought the chip serving was rather small compared to our local neighbors. Everything wet had was delish. We were all pleased with our meal after being on the road so long. We ended with the apple pie nachos. Super good. I strongly recommend. It was so good we came back for breakfast. I started off with the Red Chuli Chai latte. So good and spicy. I had the huevos rancheros. They were pretty good and they were served with a giant flour tortilla. My husband the the omelette. He was so satisfied. My daughter had the blue corn waffle. She was happy camper too. Next time you are on your way to Monument Valley or just passing through Kayenta you must stop here. The food is really good. read more

We stopped here for a late lunch on our way to Monument Valley. We tried the Navaho Taco and the three enchiladas entrees and found them tasty and different from anything we'd eaten in Wisconsin! The taco was made with native flatbread and is definitely worth trying. I had the chicken enchiladas with red sauce and wasn't disappointed. It had the right amount of heat without being bland. The service was good but they serve many customers in a small area. The cafe can be a little noisy when filled, so know that going in. We ended up going there on our way back south too! read more

Wow, this place is great! Located in a very small town, we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and service. We ordered their chimichanga with shredded beef and Navajo taco, both delicious. The Navajo flat bread is not made with lard, instead vegetable shortening, making it easier for us to eat. The bread was pillowy and tasty on its own, even better with the taco toppings. Also complimentary are their chips and salsa, which both tasted great. At the end we ordered their orange spice latte, which was tasty as well. Ambiance was simple and clean, and service was kind and helpful. For our NYE dinner, this place hit the spot! read more

Coffee closes at 5PM which is a bummer. The blue chip with salsa was flavorful. The navajo burger was a nice twist, too big of a portion for one person. Shrimp with Navajo bread was tantalizing, elote rib was pretty good. Not expecting this quality here! read more

Waited outside for a whole hour with 5 year old and husband. Food has always been great there but today, I was in the hot sun with my child put my name on the list, still 4 other families were seated before I was. She did acknowledge I was next but still took a bigger family. That family showed up 10 mins and got seated. I went inside to let the hostess I was still waiting and just decided to order to go. The hostess didnt try to be nice she just told me to wait outside once again until she can order my food. I dont think I will be taking my family there again. read more

I recently visited Monument Valley & the Arizona portion of the Navajo Nation to celebrate a personal milestone. I stopped by Amigo Cafe in Kayenta for dinner while I was in the area, and I was completely blown away by the entire experience. Amigo Cafe is a Navajo-owned restaurant that also has a coffeeshop on site. Their menu is a mash up of Navajo and Southwestern cuisine, and the space is thoughtfully decorated with plants, art, and a mixture of woods that evokes warmth and comfort. It was just what I needed after my hike at Monument Valley to round out the celebratory experience. Service at the restaurant was satisfactory during my visit and the dining room quickly filled up with what appeared to be a mix of tourists and local families from the area. The restaurant was actually on a wait when I left around 6 pm Arizona Time. For my meal, I ordered the Navajo Chalupa that came with blue corn fry bread, grilled shrimp, arugula, radish, cilantro, mango pico de gallo, scallion avocado aioli, and cilantro vinaigrette. The zesty ingredients from the chalupa packed a mighty punch that worked in perfect harmony with the crunchy and creamy elements in the chalupa. The hot and cold ingredients also perfectly complemented one another. I'm sure it's hard to tell from this review (/s), but this ended up being one of my favorite (Top 10) meals of 2024. In addition to the Navajo Chalupa, I also ordered a Buzzy Bee coffee drink. That was another home run! Final rating: 10/10 read more

This family owned cafe is a hidden gem! Waited in the patio area to get seated for about 5-10 minutes. The waiters were attentive and when we told them we were on a bit of a time crunch, they sped up the service for us. We got the el combination plate which came with green chile enchilada sauce, pork tamale, beef taco, cheese enchilada, bean tostada, rice, beans, chips & amigo salsa! Very yummy and I enjoyed the pork tamale the most! Also tried their caramelized sandstorm coffee and it was delicious too. read more

Dropped by during our road trip because it was the only restaurant in town really that was still open. We got there around 7:30 PM and managed to get our names on the waitlist which they took away around 7:45 PM. We had to wait around 20 minutes for a party of two. The restaurant is definitely on the smaller size so keep that in mind when coming to dine - you may have to wait a bit especially with a larger party. I got the fry bread chalupa and my boyfriend got the three sisters burrito. Both were DELICIOUS! And very unique - I never had anything like that before but the taste was so good. The mole was creamy and packed with flavor. The amigo fries were good too but I will say they were on the small end. Overall, would recommend! read more

A day of fun, adventure, almost being shived by a 5 year old , good food and ending a bit smitten. What does one do when you cannot get to the parts you need till Monday? Well your friend whose house you are working on piles you and his family into the Rez ride and whisks everyone off on and adventure! After a fun filled day at the Valley, all were heating the rumblings of their tummies. A smackeral of food was to be the next quest. But behold ! The cafe at the Valley was closed. Now we all had grumpy grumbling bellies. With a quick search, a brisk drive to the next town we ended up here . With small towns and definitely small touristy towns one is often disappointed or left walking away slightly satisfied. Today would not be one of those days! From the get go the staff was just fabulous. Walking in one felt like it was very inviting and quaint. Then after ordering , the chips and salsa hit the table which cheered up the hungry mob. Then the moment came where the food started to arrive. As my fry bread chalupa was set down, my friend's daughter locked eyes with me as she reached to snatch a shrimp off the top. She had the look in her eyes like she had a knife under the table at the ready just in case I tried to stop her in her tracks. Out of fear for my life I graciously accepted the loss of the shrimp. After shaking off the ordeal and her plate arriving I could safely start to enjoy my for. AND enjoy I did ! Each and every bite. Thankfully my friend stole some of his girlfriend's food for me which was also delectable ! I did notice how my friend dint share any of his so with that gesture I will assume his was also very good. This place definitely earns the 4 and the head chef deserves much applause. It maybe be small and you may have to wait, but by all means wait. If you happen to get the attractive auntie that took care of us. You may also walk away a bit smitten like I did ! Swwoooonnnn read more

If you're traveling through Navajo nation (Kayenta) and looking for quality food look no further. This spot is off the beaten path, pay close attention to not miss it! The Navajo taco is a classic for this spot. I enjoyed the beef taco salad. We also got a chicken burrito. The food is fresh, full of spices and delicious! Expect a wait. Typically you're looking at 20 plus. It's a small cozy location. It's super cute inside with a hipster Navajo vibe. Our server Miko was a delight! read more

I love this cafe! I wish I had more excuses to drive out this way. I got a fantastic vegetarian fry bread taco here that really set the bar high for other tacos! It was so good and filling I had to take one half to go for later. I also got the elote dip which was great!! I also got a latte to go which was great. I checked and I don't see the vegetarian taco on the menu on the website anymore. I hope that wasn't just a seasonal item. There is plenty of parking, service is fast and prices are good. The staff was nice and the ambience is cool. I enjoyed eating here! read more

The food was delicious and the service was great. Fresh ingredients with light sauces, not heavy rubbery cheeses. The chicken nachos appetizer had savory tender chicken pieces with different sauces in it. There was a but of light queso sauce too. The shrimp fried bread with arugula entree was also very good. The bread was light and airy. The mango & tomato salsa on top was very flavorful. Finished it with a great strong cup of cappuccino. Would have had the affogato if they had chic ice cream. Too bad no wine or beer allowed. read more

Amigos Cafe is a hidden gem in Kayenta! I'll admit, Kayenta wasn't on my radar as a food stop--but after seeing the glowing reviews, we decided to give Amigos a try, and I'm so glad we did. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was just as impressive. I had the Navajo Taco (highly recommend), and my husband had the enchiladas--both were packed with flavor. It was so good, I couldn't resist ordering a Golden Hour latte and the fry bread a la mode to go. No regrets there--they were just as tasty. If I find myself passing through again, I'll definitely make a point to stop here. read more

Crazy good! We stopped in on our way through from Arizona to Colorado and what a nice surprise. The interior was modern, clean and very nicely decorated. The server was a sweetheart. And the food was ridiculously good! I got the Navajo Burger(because I love fry bread). The burger was HUGE, juicy and perfectly seasoned and cooked. My husband had the combo plate that came with so much food. Each one of our meals was $15! I have no idea how that's even possible to provide so much good food at such a low price, but it was true! If you are visiting any of the nearby attractions, definitely stop in here! read more

The fusion I didn't know I was missing: Native and Mexican, with some inspired American dishes also. Super unique flavor profiles, great customer service and restaurant ambiance, clean bathrooms, and multiple vegetarian options - including a Three Sisters burrito (squash, beans, and corn) that had to die for pumpkin mole. Awesome fry bread. Salsa is the perfect amount of spicy but flavorful. From out of state, but am bookmarking this place and am honestly already eager to return! read more

A warm, soft, puffy blue corn fry bread topped with fat shrimp, fresh veggies, mango & a light vinaigrette. It was all the textures you want together, in every bite! Loved this!!
