| Outside
Off the main highway, there is a gravel road that leads to an open area in scrub grass with the side closest to the desert lined with some amount of fencing to keep the occasional drunk driver from plowing straight into the building. There is an area used for parking - just a wide sandy area and it is generally sparsely populated. There is always the occasional semi and a few motorcycles parked out here. Poles are set up to look like old-fashioned street lamps.
There is a large BBQ pit off to the side, enclosed, complete with a locking hatch to keep people out when it isn't in use. There are a few picnic tables and a little canopy shelter for those who wish to eat outside. The main building is fairly new, though the desert sun has faded the exterior to a pale blue. A new sign over the wide deck declares the place to be called Sun and Moon.
Main Restaurant
The wooden floor creaks beneath your feet as you walk into this rustic, homestyle restaurant. Wide, sturdy chairs circle round wooden tables, covered with inexpensive table cloths and set with knife fork and paper napkin. This isn't a fancy place, for sure.
Behind the bar is a selection of bottles as is a chalk-board displaying the drink and food specials of the day. There's a mirror behind all this to reflect the rest of the little restaurant. Scattered here and there are Navajo rugs, authentic and sturdily made that can be purchased.
There is a pass through to the kitchen, from which comes the smell of delicious, earthy, homestyle Navajo food. The food is simple, handmade, and reasonably inexpensive
