This unusual and unforgettable restaurant is our top favorite in town! We like to call it “the hobbit house” because of its beautiful and rare “storybook” ambience that you won’t find anywhere else! Run by a religious sect, the yellow deli features farm to table fresh food at great prices and is a guest favorite! I once had a guest return to Yellow Deli during her weeklong stay, three Different times! It’s just that special and we love for all of our guests to get to experience it! Please note: the staff honor the Sabbath and the restaurant is closed from Friday at 3 to Sunday at noon. Otherwise the restaurant is open 24 hours a day!

If you’re looking for great quality food AND entertainment, Coyote features live bands 6 nights a week and the crowd is always energetic, warm and welcoming! We love to go people watch as all ages dance together to the music on the huge outdoor patio with fire pits!
Insider Tip; 🤔 If you’d like to enjoy the music but not the crowds, head to the sushi restaurant that sits above Coyote and ask for a balcony table that seats you above the excitement for a relaxing Birds Eye view! 😍
