    Inside front room.

    We stopped by after a day at Caprock Canyon and got the the breakfast burger and the avocado peppered bacon burger with tater tots. It was delicious! The burgers are really tasty and ambiance is charming. In the women's bathroom they have sugar scrubs and lotion for your hands. The staff was very helpful and friendly.

    This is the Heap of onion burger.

    The food was delicious, and extremely appetizing. The server,Orion, was helpful and sweet. Had a pretty atmosphere and was calm and lovely.

    Banana Pudding... homemade.... Delectable!

    I brought my parents here for Sunday lunch, and it was wonderful. The food is amazing (I had a salad with grilled chicken, strawberries, feta cheese and raspberry vinaigrette. The salad was huge! The finale: free dessert! Banana pudding, strawberry shortcake and chocolate chip cookies, doughnuts. I need a nap. :)

    Dining room super clean, we hit it just right at opening, people started pouring in

    Wow!! Completely unsuspecting, hidden gem, tucked away on the corner of town. We only pulled over because of previous reviews. Glad we did! This place exceeded every expectation. Fresh food from scratch -- menu and daily specials very creative and tempting, hard to choose! Everything we ordered was impressive and very tasty. Service was incredibly warm and sincere. Restrooms and dining area super clean. We got take out soft drinks for the long drive back and the sodas were huge! I would drive miles out of the way for this place -- well worth it! Prices low, portions generous. Open 11-3, 6-8pm -- fortunately we hit it at just the right time. They were open New Year's Day!

    Heap of onion Burger!! It was amazing!

    A wonderful little place close to Cap Rock Canyons. It's a must if visiting! I had the Avocado bacon cheeseburger which was excellent! The loaded chili fries were amazing as well!

    We spent half our day at Caprock Canyon State Park and decided to stop here on our way out and glad we did! Very pleased with the service, food, drinks, gift shop, and even the tidiness and charm in the bathrooms! The restaurant has detailed decor and beautiful canvas and oil paintings on the walls. Each table sitting had its own placemat and coaster with individualized messages. There are so many choices on the menu too!! The waitresses were very attentive and nice. Thank you!!

    I just think this place is a disaster. This has nothing to do with the niceness of the staff…read more(bartender). He is attentive. But I sat down. (It's late June). And flies are buzzing around everywhere. I order and while ordering I say, "Hey what can be done about these flies to keep them away from me and off my food when it arrives". The answer, "that's because it's summer and we leave our door open, we have a salt gun but we can't use it when customers are here." "So... what is done to keep flies under control and away from my food?" I look around and see no deterrents hanging or placed, nothing. I just received a phone emoji worthy white man shrugging face. This place doesn't even have a fly swatter or flip flop from an angry Mom. The Sweet and Spicy burger arrives. It was good enough. Just so that you know FIFA WC soccer was on. Ivory Coast was up on Curaçao 2-0 and Germany was tied up with Ecuador 1-1 in a close and better elimination game. The audio for the bar was for the CIV v CUW. I was interested in the Germany v Ecuador game so I asked, "can we get the audio to the GvE game?" "No, those two ladies (only two other patrons in the bar) are watching the game being played/heard.". "No problem", I say. Meanwhile the women are talking super fast and weren't even taking breathes enough to hear the broadcast nor looking at the TVs. In my head I thought, man I don't write reviews often but this would be an epic one star. But decided chill out, and not. I finish my burger and beer and about with :15 mins left in the match the bartender changes the audio (to GvE) which is met with applause by the women, and an inner smile by me. Ecuador scores almost instantly as they pound on the table and stand on their stools, as if they were on Bourbon Street and things could get very interesting. Hmmm, I think to myself. These damn women are Ecuadorian. So what's with thinking they were Curaçaoian? Or am I to believe they didn't give two about looking at the Curaçao game and suddenly became super fans when the Ecuador game was turned on audio. Honestly. Did he miss the mark that much? Sure did. Anywho, the check arrives at the burger menu priced at $13 comes up as $13.83 and the pints are also like $9.odd amount like $9.81 or something. The total is $33.blah blah. I hand over my card but ask, "what's with the strange pricing? The menu says $8 for each item." "Oh let me check...oh yeah it because the menu lists cash prices and so if you pay cash, you get that price, if not you pay this price." WTH!!! Maybe that's listed on the menu. But a 10% service charge on beer to cover a what 3-4% Visa fee. Man, please be overcharging to buy some fly swatters or hanging stank away bags. So yeah, 1-star. Just skip this place and go sit on a Port-a-potty instead.

    I was craving a burger and decided to try Wrecked based on other reviews. It really did not…read moredisappoint. I went in for a late lunch on a Wednesday and there were only a handfull of people so I cant comment much on the vibe but its spacious and looks like it could be a fun place to hang out. I decided in the Guinness burger paired with a Guinness. It was deliciuos. Perfectly cooked, juicy and flavorful. The fries had a nice seasoning and I loved the Sriracha ketchup. I hope to come back soon to try another delicious burger.

    Great food and great service. Nice cold beer out of the…read morebathtub. Chill burger was awesome.

    If you are looking for white tablecloths, subtle lighting, or a quiet place to whisper sweet…read morenothings, keep driving past Coyote Bluff Cafe (often locally called the "Coyote Bluu" or simply "The Bluff") in Amarillo, Texas. But if your idea of culinary heaven involves a grease-stained paper liner, an old-school Texas roadhouse vibe, and a burger that requires structural support, you have arrived at the right place. Nestled just a few blocks off Interstate 40 in a historic, diminutive former dance hall moved wholesale from neighboring Claude, Texas, Coyote Bluff is tiny. With only about 12 tables packed into its 1,000 square feet, the atmosphere is alive with a loud, friendly hum, a dirt parking lot, and a vintage bathtub floating full of ice and cold beer bottles. The place is amazing!!!! The unique steaming process is really amazing. You have to try the chili cheese fries to go with it. The menu keeps its focus tight, centering around half-pound patties of lean Texas ground beef cooked to order. While traditional options like the Hickory Burger and the Green Chili Cheese Burger are stellar, the undisputed heavyweight titleholder here is the legendary Burger from Hell. I had to try it, my wife opted for the Chicken Fried Steak. Many approach the "Hell Burger" with great trepidation, expecting it to be more of a gimmick built strictly on painful, mouth-numbing heat. Instead, it offers a beautifully layered flavor profile. The beef patty with Tabasco and their proprietary "Coyote Hell Sauce," then smothers it in gooey melted cheese, grilled onions, and fresh, vibrant sautéed jalapeños. It arrived on a toasted onion bun, it lands a solid 7 out of 10 on the heat scale. But rather than scorching your palate, it wraps it in a vinegary, spicy, deeply savory warmth. This place also serves up classic, heavy-hitting Texas roadhouse appetizers: Each of these are amazing sides and are worth of mentioning, First the Cheese Fries with Green Chiles, which I had with my burger and my wife had with her Chicken fried steak, it is served on a massive aluminum platter, these fresh-cut fries are heavily blanketed in melted cheese and mild green chiles. They are a mandatory companion to the burgers.  Other appetizers worth of note, are the Texas Red Chili & Green Chili Stew: The thick, hearty green chili stew is packed with meat and mild green peppers, offering a wonderful warming comfort, especially during cool Panhandle days.  and any of the Fried options ranging from baskets of battered fried pickles, garlic mushrooms, and stuffed jalapeños. Because everything is cooked to order and the dining room is incredibly compact, expect a wait during lunch rushes or weekends. However, that time spent waiting in the dirt lot among locals and passing road-trippers is part of the charm. Coyote Bluff Cafe doesn't try to be anything other than a spectacular, small-town Texas burger joint, and it executes that identity flawlessly. This is a MUST Stop in Texas
