This little diner is a gem in the middle of the small town of Morenci, AZ. Their sign "The Miner's Diner" is made up of pennies, different, unique & appropriate for serving miners at the largest mine in the United States right in their back yard.
Dishes had a beautiful presentation like any fine restaurant in the city. Food was delicious & made with fresh ingredients. We tried chef salad & toasted club sandwich with fries. NOTE: No skinny fries here, they're thick & filling. Do you like dipping fries in ranch dressing? Not here! Try one of the special sauces the owners make for some of their other dishes. Yum Yum!
Service was outstanding. Tracy & Jessica, owners, make you feel like family, taking time to welcome guests despite being crazy busy while people dined inside & a constant stream of customers came through wearing florescent striped vests, grabbing take out lunches on breaks at the mine.
This spot is good for families as the ambience is friendly, open & the diner is well run. (Don't be surprised if someone asks what you ordered, or where you're from) Anyone who visits the mine should stop here for a bite before or...
Read moreMy hubby and I come here a lot. Most every Sunday and a few times during the week. We always tell everyone how amazing the burger is. Today’s experience has made me change my mind though, sadly. We ordered a chicken chimichanga that was really gummy and overly fried. It was hard to pull apart even with a fork.

It’s supposed to be that way.” We explained further and she spoke to her manager and came back and said, “we will remake the chimichanga only and bring them back.” Okay. Rude. We brought the chimi’s back and the manager opened the containers in front of my husband like to confirm the story and then handed us new chimi’s. There was no apology, they really need to learn customer service. Super...
Read moreFood is really good, in general, although the rice portion is very small with main courses even when you order double rice… i enjoy the Baja Chicken Chimi. I had breakfast there a few weeks ago and ordered the Texas French toast- it was regular thin bread instead…so be sure to find out if the texas toast is in stock and what the cook will use if you want what’s described in menu. The bacon is always really delicious as is the coffee. It would be helpful if there was an official website for this establishment so you could look at most recent menus instead of 5 year old pictures from guests. Other than all that it’s a very good place to eat in Morenci. Good job, folks...
