We usually eat at least one night at Shugrues. Brian (454 Rocket) got us hooked when Tito was there. Tito was probably the best waiter we have ever had. You can't beat their Banana Fosters.

Angelina's is my favorite Italian place.....we do go to Dolce Vita as well, but only when Angelina's is packed and we can't get in quickly.

Cha-Bones definitely has the best steaks in town......and you will pay dearly for them, even by So Cal standards.

I like Makai for breakfast due to the location, Red onion if good too but sitting outside in the channel trumps the food for me.

For me the best food in town comes off my grill in the back yard and there's never a problem getting a reservation :D

I think Shugrus is overrated. Cha bones is pretty good. Red Onion has good food, but poor service (always a long wait for your food). The layout is awkward too. Black Bear and Juicy's are good for breakfast. I like going to Heat and having Javalina Cantina deliver food to the bar. I've never waited longer than 15 mins for them to deliver. I'd rather bring some good steaks from home and BBQ. I go to the river to get away from city life. I'm not huge on hitting all the bars and restaurants every weekend. I want to be away from people.

Cha Bones is pretty good there's not a lot of privacy though and I felt cramped when i was there. I have never eaten at Javalina Cantina, I have heared it is good though. We stay at our timeshare @ the FCC/Nautical when we are in Havasu so no BBQ for us. Someone got hurt stepping on hot coals so they outlawed the BBQ's sometime ago.

I agree Cha Bones feels more like a bar than a restaurant.

I can't recall the name, but there's a steak house on the south side of town I've been to twice. The food was good. Not the nicest place in town, but the service and food were good.

I make a better steak at home so like it's home we go.......plus I can promise you I have a better wine cellar than ANY restaurant in town including Shugrues which has the best!! Most restaurants in Havasu think Kendell-Jackson, Vintners Reserve is "Top of the line" :D

I think Irvine did and also not sure if it is still there but down the 15 just North of the 76 had it. We all stopped and had beers there on our way to a concert at Pala some years back.

That's funny but it makes sense, they should all serve beer. I had to eat lunch at the one in Chino yesterday to see for myself but no beer.
