We had three meals at Junction Restaurant. The breakfast was fine nothing spectacular but tasty. Lunch was great. Large Chef Salad and the star was the Lamb Sandwich on a Navajo tortilla. Big slices of grilled lamb served with tomato, onion, and a huge grilled poblano pepper. I had onion rings instead of fries and they were great. Dinner was delicious lamb stew with fry bread and a Navajo Taco which had lots of lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, olives, beans and onions. Served with spicy salsa. The service was top notch at all three meals. Large place with plenty of seating and they also feature a Pizza Hut menu if you are up for that but I highly recommend the traditional Navajo specialities

We were staying in Chinle two nights to visit Canyon de Chelly and ate at the Junction both nights. The food was delicious. I had a green chile hamburger and the green chile just added so much flavor. My husband had the Navajo taco and he loved that too. You'll notice that this restaurant is popular among visitors as well as people who live in town. There is something for everyone. It's not fancy, but the food is delicious and authentic.

We enjoyed a generously portioned meal for a great price. The staff was very attentive and polite. The atmosphere was cozy and clean, and it is obviously a hot spot for the locals. Decor was pleasant. Highly recommend if you are in the area.

We had a nice dinner here. The taco salad was huge & fresh. The hamburger was very good with lots of toppings. This place gets busy ,but the service is good. It's closes at 8pm so get here early. The menu has a good variety of meals to choose from. Family friendly place.

Good service and recommended by the tour guide for some traditional food. My favorite meal was the lamb stew. Mmmm! Also enjoyed the Navajo taco. Topped with so much. My daughter ordered Mexican food and our favorite was the cheese enchilada.

Chinle, AZ isn't exactly a foodie hotspot so dining options are quite limited in town. This is one of the few dine-in restaurants around. I came here for both dinner and breakfast. I found the service to be great and the food to be pretty good with large portions. The menu is a mix of Navajo and American dishes. We ordered the lamb sandwich, caesar salad, and beef stew for dinner which was tasty and very filling. Their fry bread was excellent! Only caveat is that their hours on the weekends are a bit odd so check their website or call in to make sure they are open if you plan on having a late dinner.

We went here for lunch after spending the morning in Canyon de Chelly on a jeep tour. The Junction Restaurant was recommended to us by a couple of locals as the best place for eating out. We arrived at 12:15 and were surprised to see how quickly we could get a seat because the parking lot looked full. I was trying to decide between a bowl of posole or the green chile cheeseburger. My decision was made easier when the waitress said that the posole is no longer available. The green chile cheeseburger is a 1/3 pound beef patty with cheese and a roasted green chile that has been roasted, split, and cleaned paced on top of the cheese. On the side, they provide lettuce, onion, and tomato for you to add if you like them. I got seasoned fries with my burger, which were ok. They are steak-cut fries, seasoned then deep fried. The flavor was not bad, but they still needed salt and ketchup. For dessert we got a Navajo Fry Bread to split. This was tasty and was served with a little cup of brown sugar, but they had somehow ran out of honey. That would have been helpful to know when we ordered it. I probably would not have chosen this item if I knew that they were out of honey. Based on what I have seen in Chinle I think that this is probably the best place to eat. There are lots of other options on the menu and they had plenty of staff, so the service was quick and we got out food in a very reasonable amount of time.
