For the folks of Patagonia, please know this establishment does not respect combat disabled veterans, their families, or their service animals. On Tuesday, 7 April 2026, this establishment committed a Class 2 Misdemeanor by refusing service to a veteran, his family, and his service animal. The reason, they apparently didn't think the "dog was a registered Service Dog". Folks, there is no "registry" of service animals, nor can an establishment ask this question. Under the ADA and Arizona Statute A.R.S 11-1024, denial of access is a Class 2 misdemeanor. And, this establishment, and another in Patagonia, committed that crime. There are EXACTLY two questions that can be asked of a service animal handler. One, "is this animal required for a disability". The answer in this case was "yes". Two, "what specific task or tasks is the animal trained for". This question was answered. It's not funny, it's discrimination. Against a disabled veteran and his family. And it's illegal. If I were a Patagonian, I'd probably avoid this establishment. I mean, if they can't follow simple ADA and Arizona statutes, what else are they violating? Food safety rules? How would we know? When next in Sonoita I was going to visit Patagonia. Now I have no motivation to. In my personal opinion, protected by the First Amendment, this is not an establishment worth patronizing. Shame on the owner, who claims the dog wasn't "registered". Either you, your staff, or both broke the law. Wonder how that's going to work out? read more

I sat down to order looking forward to a tasty if not healthful lunch. $16.50 and a 25-minute wait later, I was handed an overcooked cheeseburger (I asked for medium rare, they gave me medium well to well done) and limp fries. The one bright spot was that my server admitted fault for the delay and gave me a small discount; I appreciated her honesty. But I do not recommend Wild Horse and will not be returning. read more

We came here for dinner based on the menu that was in our weekend rental. I was looking at the daily Friday special but they just ran out of soup which was one of the sides. We ended up getting a burger and a chicken sandwich that had green chilis. We got the seasoned and crinkles fries with our meals so we could try both. The burger was cooked to a nice medium rare and it was super juicy which was great. The seasoned fries were bomb as well. I'd recommend these for sure. My chicken sandwich with green chilies was just ok. I don't think it would come on toasted sandwich type bread. It was lacking in flavor and if it had some type of sauce, it would be much better. The crinkle fries were thicker than other fries which was great. They were nice and potatoey although some were slightly undercooked, but still pretty darn good overall. read more

Love this restaurant. I have been here twice and both times were good. Service has always been quick. I got tacos the first time which were good but I got a steak the 2nd time that was so tasty I can't wait to go back. I do like all the bright colors and the feel of earlier times when you walk through the doors upon entering restaurant. read more

Very clean! tastes delicious. Great for a nice filling breakfast. Would recommend to friends and family, also music is nice not to loud you can still enjoy. the service is great very nice and kind if you need anything they will help. And the coffee is the best I have tasted! Maria was great made us feel welcome and had great conversation! read more

I thought this restaurant was good. I had the chicken fajita wrap with coleslaw, both had really good flavor. The coleslaw was the best I have ever had. I tried the pattymelt too. It was well seasoned and I really liked the fries. The restaurant had a good atmosphere and was in a good location in downtown Patagonia. read more

This restaurant has more seating than perhaps all of the other restaurants in town, combined. Our server was efficient and took good care of us. The food was ok, kind of standard Sysco fare, but was well prepared and tasted fine. read more

The service from their manager was unpleasant, disrespectful, condescending, and rude. The managerial staff needs training on how to properly address guests upon entering the establishment. Further training on how to handle an increase in guest traffic, customer service, and guest retention is recommended. My letter to their owner: I hope you had a great Patagonia Festival weekend. I am reaching out in concern over a very disappointing and disturbing encounter I had with Wild Horse Manager, Maria. She was extremely rude and condescending upon my arrival at the restaurant today. My children were seated at the restaurant waiting for me and my husband to arrive around 12:45-1:00 PM today. We were excited about our annual family meal we enjoy yearly at the festival after our late checkout from the Stage Stop Inn Hotel. However, when I entered a young man abruptly stopped me and asked me what I was doing. Before I got a chance to process and answer, Maria intervened rudely in a sarcastic and unnecessary tone. I let them both know my children were already seated. Then I proceeded to try and take a seat with them. Maria followed me to my table and made a scene about me not sitting with them because it was a two person table. Her tone was completely unnecessary. Lastly, upon asking the young man Marteen, who stopped me, for his name and hers, she came back into my space with an attitude, gave me her manager card and said more condescending remarks about herself and her managerial status. This is my annual birthday trip. I am totally disappointed by its ending. Her behavior was completely unnecessary and uncalled for this afternoon. I had very pleasant interactions with both bar tenders the night before and the waitresses there. I do hope this does not go unnoticed as I heard others complaining about the service today when I entered. I did not understand why until I did. Thank you for your time and understanding. I definitely want a call back from the owner so I know he has received this message. Have a blessed day and even more successful fall festival in the future. read more

I ate dinner here twice while in Patagonia. The food was OK. It's very convenient if you're staying at the hotel; however there are some other options in Patagonia that I think are better. If you're staying at the hotel, it's worth a visit. read more

I have been in the area for a couple weeks. And stopping here for their nightly specials. I'll tell you something. Need make it for Fish Fridays! Omg is is good. Always leave maxed out.

Food was amazing and the waitstaff was even better. . Prices were affordable and the restaurant is clean and cute. We definitely will come back when we drive through read more

The place is clean and nicely decorated. The burgers were good and the onion rings were crispy. The service was good but not great. The reason I won't be back is because of the flies! Don't sit by a window!! read more

I had read previous reviews about the service being slow and poor. I wasn't in a hurry and was hoping to be pleasantly surprised. Alas, my hopes were dashed this day. The food was fine. I ordered breakfast for dinner, because why not. I had to ask twice for my side order of cole slaw. Everything took forever to arrive. The wait person didn't really check back in with me to make sure I had everything I wanted. Oh yeah, and they delivered a beer which wasn't the one I asked for. More attention to detail and training is needed. read more

The first time we were here we really enjoyed the food and the outside dining. The owners were on site that day. The second time, no service, no attention. Sad to know that there is no consistency. read more

My wife and I dropped in for lunch on a nice midwinter January day. We were happy with service, good food and overall experience. Shredded pork sandwich and seasoned fries were good and enough for two of us. Very congenial server. What more could we ask? read more

Meh.. service was terrible while the place was empty. Seems like no urgency. Chicken sandwich and burger. Cole slaw was good. read more

Great little stop! Warm and friendly staff! Delicious guacamole !! We were so thrilled to have baked potato on the menu before 4pm(we had lunch) Good coleslaw and cheese quesadilla!!! Clean!!! read more

Like other reviewers service was very slow however it was understandable as there was a party of 13 ahead of us. In retrospect we should have noticed that and gone elsewhere. Hubby had a burger and he said it was huge and good. I had the club and disappointed that the turkey was the cold cut kind. Like Oscar Meyers or similar. Fries and sandwich were cold. The nice thing I appreciated was the huge glass of ice tea they serve there. No need for refills. Our friends ordered the quesadillas and said they were fine but they loved the guacamole! Probably won't be back. read more

Taco Tuesday Special so the two of us gals chose that. I should have just ordered the two tacos. "Spanish Rice" very dry, beans were delicious, obviously home made up just too much for me to eat. Bit disappointed the corn tortillas were soft, not the hard ones I was expecting so hard to eat, as they were FULL. Beef was bit shredded, it was actual bits of well-seared, hence flavor steak. DH ordered his go-to sandwich, the Rueben. Enjoyed it, again so much flavorful meat which had been cooked a bit in a frying pan or on the grill - added lots of flavor. Just too large of a sandwich, he just ate the meat not the bread, as well as few of the abundant fries. Service just at the right level. read more

Friendly attentive staff. Eating outside with my dog that they thoughtfully provided a bowl of ice water. Enjoyed an Arizona Burger with Green Chili, Bacon , Cheese and BBQ sauce accompanied by a very nice Cabernet from Elgin, Arizona. read more

We ate here today after visiting the hummingbird center. I had the chicken enchiladas and my husband had the spaghetti and meatballs. Both were delicious and delivered to our table quickly. Nice place to eat in a beautiful small town. read more

Ordered pizza-it was worse than frozen. Ordered mozzarella sticks and the cheese wasn't even hot inside.

We both ordered the Arizona Burger. It was good, but not great. I think it had too many competing ingredients on it. The fries were also good. All the menu items were fairly expensive. Note: there was a menu posted outside and the prices on that menu were less than the menu we were given inside. Service was not great. We had to stop a waitress walking by us for the second time to get menus. This was after she had brought menus and drinks to the couple that arrived about 5 minutes after we arrived. After that service was fine. There were only three or four other tables of diners. read more

Had the sourdough burger. Delicious! Fries were too. My son had biscuits and gravy that were out of this world. Service slow. read more

Food was prepared quickly and was very flavorful. The young waiter was nice and attentive always filling coffee and water. read more

Easy five stars. Everything I ate for lunch was the best. Best chips and salsa to start, as good as any I've ever had. Excellent too was the Cole slaw. Perfect. Now, I love a good Grilled Reuben on Rye so I thought I would give theirs a try; Jackpot! Again, the best Reuben that I've had in a long long time. Juicy and not over-done. And the service was friendly and attentive, I felt right at home. Paulette my waitress was special. I surely would eat here regularly if I only lived closer. read more

I am always driving around looking for different places to visit and see. I've gone to Patagonia a couple times and canr believe I never noticed this place. The hotel is nice and stands out but I never noticed the restaurant and saloon. When I saw this place open I immediately went in and loved the decor and the place is really well kept and the restaurant area looks very upscale and can't wait to try their food. I went to the saloon of course and the service was great and I loved that they had a few beers and even wine on draft and also to our luck they had free appetizers out. Our bartender was nice as was the rest of the staff. Very nice place and I recommend a stop if you are ever driving through Patagonia. read more

Solid lunch spot, very welcome. BBQ ribs were great. Could easily make this a habit in the area

Very kind and friendly service and an eminently decent cheeseburger. We gave the burger a 4/5 because we asked for medium rare and they gave us a medium. But it's hard to hit the right doneness with ground beef, and therefore the overall rating shouldn't be affected. The IPA on draught was excellent. If you are in Patagonia looking for a friendly, decent meal, this is your best choice. read more

The food is good enough, but way, way overpriced for what you get. I would not eat there again unless it was the last resort. The menu is pretty limited and I was really surprised at the prices. read more

Friends have recommended Wild Horse so we went for lunch today. We liked the old fashioned building, inside is decorated nicely. We were the only people in the restaurant and the server seemed to be totally put out for having to serve us. Absolutely couldn't be bothered with us. Finally got our food, it was amazing. The kitchen is first rate. Our burgers were delicious. I'm wondering what the burger I actually ordered would have tasted, but the one she brought was very good. Server never once came to check on us. Never brought our bill after we were finished. We are usually excellent at tipping, this is the first time we have not left anything for a tip. But she absolutely did not deserve one. read more

As Patagonia is small, choices for places to get an evening meal are limited. But this is a pretty good deal. A wide selection of choices, fast, helpful service, and good food. We had the green chile burger and the BLT. Garlic fries! Crisp green salad. You could eat out on the enclosed patio or inside if still too hot outside. Good selection of beers and drinks. Give it a try! read more

Do not order the nachos. 50 cents of chips, 1/4 chicken breast and "cheese" sauce. COLD! 16 bucks. Not coming here ever again. Bleah!

Hubs and I stopped for lunch on our way through. We ordered the nachos and a hamburger with onion rings. We waited almost an hour after ordering to get our food. Nachos were okay but not great. Burger was so so and the onion rings were horrible. They were cold and so greasy that when I picked one up the grease dripped out of it. We were not offered refills of our drinks and then had to wait for someone to take our payment. We won't be going back. read more

The best salsa ever - I always say I won't eat so much of it but so good and they bring more . Always clean, colorful and cool in the summer and have had good service read more

We enjoyed our time at Wild Horse. Friendly service clean and inviting. Had the meat loaf special. Huge portions and delicious. We will be back. read more

Bad service, server seemed annoyed to take our order. Three of the five orders were wrong.

Went here for lunch today and the food is absolutely horrible. Ordered a burger and the meat tasted like it was almost spoiled. The coleslaw had no flavor whatsoever. There was 4 of us for lunch and only one said it was ok. It was a 71.00 bill for crap and the service sucked as well. Will never go back. They need to shut this place down. Absolutely the worse food I have ever eaten. Go to McDonald's before this place! read more

Stopped in since we had our pet with us. A pet friendly restaurant with really good food. Big burgers and onion rings. Great service and our server was exceptional. Brought us a water dish for the dog and was always there and smiling as she took care of us. read more
