Yippie-Ei-O Steakhouse
Just outside of the Grand Canyon, there is a small town of Tusayan. We were starving, so we went to a restaurant called the Yippie-Ei-O Steakhouse. Overall rating is that this restaurant is not great.
One highlight of the meal was the appetizer of fried zuchini and mushrooms. That was actually quite tasty. But then again, they are deep fried.
The steak I ordered was quite dry and overcooked. However, my girlfriend's filet was pretty good. All the wait staff was foreign, so they couldn't even understand me when I asked them questions about the menu. Best of all, was that they only had ranch dressing for the salad, which was made up of old iceberg lettuce and a couple cherry tomatoes. I will say that they do serve hearty portions of food. Even for American standards. Included with my dinner was the aforementioned salad, the steak, fried shrimp, a baked potato, corn on the cob, a biscuit and baked beans.
My girlfriend did say that the biscuits that they served were delicious. I, however, do not like biscuits, since they are cakey and not bready. (That we will save for another discussion.)
If I were you, skip Tusayan and go somewhere in Williams or Flagstaff.

Loved the biscuits...steak was good too! Didn't like the mushrooms because they had been washed and were wet. Didn't like the watery sensation you got when you bit into the mushrooms. The amount of ranch in that place was unbelievable!
Note to self:
Ranch dressing is what you put on shitty food to make is taste better.
You are your stupid ass "cakey vs. bready" argument.
We ate at this restaurant tonight. The worst experience of my life. I sent my steak back 3 times to be cooked correctly. Each time it came back bleeding. I told them nevermind, my companions were already done eating. I was then charged for each part of my meal, 2.50 each for salad, corn, potatoe, beans, and even 2.50 for 1 stale cold biscuit. So the meal came out the same. They then charged us 2.00 per drink and 2.00 for each refill!. They must really need the money. A local at the hotel said they never recommend this restaurant to anyone and the locals will not eat there.
