O K Cafe Tombstone — Restaurant in Tombstone

The name says it all. It’s OK.

Not many options on the menu but that’s par for Tombstone. Not many options for anything. Other than overpaying for mediocre things. Super disappointing city and an average cafe.

Google says “vegan options”. That’s not a lie. Those options are bread and fruit. Unfortunately that’s used all too often for Vegan. My lady had toast due to this. Wheat Sara Lee (at best) with the normal restaurant jelly packs was what she got. She also asked for avocado to make avocado toast. I think it was avocado but it was the consistency of mayonnaise. No need to use a blender for avocado chef. ;)

I got a Denver omelette. Well, ordered one. I essentially got an egg crepe with half cooked onions, tomatoes and some lunch meat folded into it. The potatoes were amazing so that was nice.

The table wasn’t cleaned before we were seated but it was pretty busy. Much like Tombstone overall. Unless it’s noon to 4pm you don’t really have options. Most places in the town don’t have to care as they are there just to overcharge tourists. Either such limited options they really don’t have to care much. Lost people won’t be back and they know you get what you get in this town.

It’s a small room so you’ll have to accept children whose parents don’t know how to care about other people or raise a respect child. You also have to deal with grandmas that bathe in perfume so You can taste their Avon smell water.

The best part of the entire place and time there was the waitress. I didn’t get her name but remember her for being a young rocker chick. I loved her Death Metal tshirt (really as that’s my genre) and her service. She checked on us often and showed that personally she cared about us. She was quick and did a great job. Speaking of death medal, don’t sit in the back by the bathrooms. The kitchen team loves their music loud and doesn’t care if the diners have to talk over it. It is a great spot to sit and watch the locals come in and out of the bathroom and realize that washing their hands is not something taught in Tombstone. Makes sense for a town stuck in the 1800s. Want a side of disease with that?

Sorry Tombstone. Overall you’re disappointing and not worth the effort.

All that considered, the OK cafe provides food and since you have no other options really it will give you the ability to get further down the road without starving. Thank you waitresses (whom ever you are) for allowing me to...

Well I stopped by to grab a meal to go when I was with my small 10-pound Chihuahua one of the employees came and open the door for me with a gushing smile and welcomed me in like I was his long-lost best friend within seconds their pit bull Shannon showed up blocked my entrance and and ask for my service dog papers I told her I was just getting something to go she said you need to go outside I said I just need to order she put her arms up like a football player and ushered me towards the door like I was an animal by that point I was no longer hungry for OK Café and certainly didn't want to order any food from such a place. I called the manager to complain she didn't really seem to care too much other than the fact that they've got really good Google reviews so here's a not-so-good Google review I never did get to try the food so I can't tell you if it's good but if you do go there and there's a lady with long gray hair watch out she's a pitbull ...

The food was pretty good. The waitress was nice, but either her or I apparently woke up on an alien planet the day we ate there. She had no clue what V8 juice was (it's on the menu), and worse, she had no clue what salsa is (menu goes out of it's way to point out that they have their own homemade salsa). I ordered a breakfast burrito. When it arrived, I asked for salsa; the waitress brought me Pico. So I asked for salsa again, and she brought me 5 different bottles of hot sauce (Tabasco, etc). I finally gave up. Apparently my universal translator wasn't working properly so I couldn't convey the word "S-A-L-S-A" or something. Good news is, I've had no sudden desires to take over the world, so I'm guessing I wasn't the one on the alien planet....

Despite all that, the food was good. It would have been better with S-A-L-S-A tho!...
