Overview

About This Establishment

The Milt's Double Cheeseburger hits with hand-formed patties that sear into a crisp char, lettuce crisp and onions grilled to sweetness. Buffalo Burger offers a lean contrast with a punch of gamey flavor. Thick, hand-spun shakes from local milk drain into a satisfyingly heavy finish, while fries stay crunchy and bold. Outdoor picnic tables under cottonwood shade keep the scene laid-back as red cliffs loom in the background.
