On our Inland Expedition Tour, our guide, Stephen, recommended the Killer Cookie at the Airport restaurant. OMG...it is sooo good and truly a meal in itself. I bought the Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Walnut. For 2.50, it's HUGE and so homemade yummy delicious. It was a very nice indulgence for the day!

We stopped here on our tour of Catalina. One of our family members, who lives on the island, recommended that we go there for lunch. This is not a 5 star gourmet restaurant. They have sandwiches, buffalo burgers and even tacos. It's a simple menu and is tasty.The cookies are great. You can eat your lunch on the back patio... More

I wasn't sure what I'd get when I took a tour that stopped here for lunch. I was pleasantly surprised by the restaurant and gift shop. My husband got the bison tacos (he figured he'd never see that on another menu!) and I got the grilled cheese on sourdough. The food is cooked to order and you get to choose... More

We flew in for a “$100 Hamburger” (See my review titled “New favorite "$100 Hamburger" destination!”) We had the buffalo burger with bacon and their awesome “killer cookies.” The cookie must have weighed a pound—which will probably turn into 2 pounds on me. You can sit inside or out; nice patio seating. Service was expedient and friendly. To get to... More

If you fly into Airport in the Sky as we did or take the bus up there to eat and see the interior, get yourself a snack and a drink at the DC-3. We were the only people there while we waited for the bus....and a Piper Seneca doesn't carry too many. The folks there (and up in the control... More
