To savor unforgettable continental cuisine in the most exquisite restaurant in the desert, Wally’s Desert Turtle is a must. The most highly awarded restaurant in the desert is the proud recipient of the prestigious Mobil Travel Four Star Award, AAA Four Diamond Award, and the DiRoNA Award, to name a few.
