Where to eat near Mexican Hat, UT

Named after a very unique rock formation nestled in its borders, Mexican Hat is known for its exceptional scenery and rich Navajo tradition. The small settlement located just outside of Monument Valley is home to fewer than 100 residents and is filled with sandstone cliffs, deep layered canyons, and gorgeous red rock buttes. The beautiful scenic sandstone valley of the gods and the flowing San Juan River are 2 of the area’s biggest attractions but the area in itself is an amazing wide-open landscape anyone can appreciate.
