Originally a stagecoach stop on the way to Fort McDowell and Prescott, it maintains portions of the old 1880s stage road. The 14-ounce New York steak hits the spot just fine, although ravenous urban cowboys might opt for Reata Pass' signature two-pound T-bone.įor Wild West buffs, Reata Pass' history is almost as delicious as its grub.

In true saddle-tramp style, there's nothing fancy to speak of here, just an honest, mesquite-grilled slab of juicy, marbled-for-flavor beef. This funky cowpoke cantina has been slinging steaks since the 1950s, dished up chuck-wagon style with all the fixin's - tossed salad, baked potato, beans and squishy rolls.
