    The huge rack of ribs
    Neil S.

    This is our first Winter staying at the Blackrock RV Park. We've found a gem of a Cafe run by Raymona and Shawn. Raymona is real people and speaks her mind freely. She and Shawn are also very great Cooks. The food they put out of that kitchen is: Hot Tastey In Quantity Reasonably priced. Servers are wonderful. Brianna, Abi, Stephanie, Lisa B Sandra, and Kay. Impressed with their attitudes and warmth. A keynote night is Saturday when they cook up Prime Rib and Ribs. Oh my the Prime Rib fills the plate with little room left over for Potato, Green Beans, Salad or Soup, and a roll! Same with Ribs!!! Some seriously good cooking! I shared a receipt for Bacon Wrapped Pork Loin with Raymona, she fixed 20+ of them, and they sold out that night!!! I expect we will see this dish on future specials. Whoda thunk such a gem would be found in Brenda???? Five Stars!! Neil and Bettie

    Mushroom Swiss cheese burger with fries.

    Been eating Ramona's food here since day one of her restaurant. The food is incredible.....all the daily specials are to die for. Taco Tuesday, Thursday spaghetti and Friday 5 piece FISH..and don't forget Saturday for prime rib dinner or baby back ribs. (My favorite). and if you want a great burger get her mushrooms, swiss cheese with crinkle frys. Sounds like I eat here a lot, I DO. Stop and dine tell them jp sent me. Enjoy the food.

    Fish and chips $13.99

    We have eaten here in past years, we were told today the special was fish and chips. The frys were very undercooked, and the coleslaw was flavorless. The fish was good. However, the tartar sauce was watery. We'll go back next time ,through for lunch, but not the fish and chips.

    Awesome find. Great cafe off the highway. The owners are really nice. Cafe is clean and decorated with patriotic signs and crosses. I love their decor. Well done. Food is delicious. It's fresh and really filling. If you're passing through, this is the place to stop at.

    During our stay here, we've eaten at the Black rock Café three times. Tonight together with 194 other people we had their prime rib dinner. They started with the 8 20 pound roasts rubbed them roasted them in sequence, so there would be fresh prime rib for all the customers as they came in. The serving staff did an excellent job. They were courteous and efficient. Of a special importance to me is that the meal was served hot and the prime rib was cooked. Exactly to my specifications of 135° internal temperature. We would definitely recommend Black rock Café on Saturday nights. Making reservations a week ahead of time is probably a smart thing to do.

    Massive soup, salad and side bar

    My wife's parents, aunt and uncle all snowbird at one of the RV Resorts near this restaurant each year, and we always go to Black Rock Cafe for the Prime Rib dinner on Saturday nights when we're visiting with them. There are two rooms in the place. The main room is where all the action is, however the back room is where we have been sat every single time I have dined there. It is literally a featureless, single color room with plastic folding tables and bright fluorescent lights, not unlike what I envision as a hospital rec room. The salad and side bar is extensive and kept fresh, the prime rib cuts are juicy and the service, at least on our most recent visit, is friendly and attentive. I do think the the price of the Prime Rib is high for such a fatty cut of meat. The King is a 16 oz cut, and I would say that each time I have had it, roughly 5 oz of that is fat and gets sliced right off before I dig in. On this last visit, my wife and I each had a King cut, I had one light beer, she had one glass of chardonnay, and we split a slice of apple pie à la mode. In contrast to the meat, the beverages and dessert were very reasonably priced. We also tried the caramel bread pudding and it was delicious. All in all, the place is just OK.

    This is the whole prime rib dinner except for the container on the left!

    I drove a hundred mile round trip this afternoon to go here to get a prime rib dinner and it was probably the best prime rib dinner I have ever had in my life! I've come out here many times to get there fish fry on Friday night but I missed it last night so I thought I'd come for the prime rib tonight and boy did I make out like a bandit!! I love Ramona and Sean that run this place so it's worth the drive to me just to get to say hello! They are open for dining in or take out! If you haven't, you need to try it!!

There was only one server, Josh, running the entire front of the house by himself. Apparently this is customary on Wednesdays. Before he could seat us, he had to clear off a table. Several tables were just in disarray and when people came in, this poor man had to scramble to clean something off. I went to the bathroom and one stall had absolutely no toilet paper or covers. And one dispenser had no soap. The bathroom was just yucky. When I came back, we still didn't have menus or drinks. When our food came, we asked for condiments that took too long that we ended up taking them from another table. I ordered the biscuits and gravy. The cook gave me a stale biscuit that just ruined my meal. I couldn't eat it or ask for it to be remade because Josh was too busy to check in on us or refill our drinks. I told him when he came to pick up the plates. He apologized, but he didn't remove it from the check. I paid $10 for a meal I couldn't eat. We got a piece of pie and the taste was kind of weird...like it had been freezer burned and then defrosted. The whole experience was disappointing.

The restrooms were clean and plentiful, which we really appreciated after being on the road. Since it's Quartzsite, there were also lots of rocks and gems for sale along with snacks and drinks, which gave it a fun local feel. The AC was blowing hard inside, which was especially nice considering how hot it was outside. Overall, this was a really good stop and a convenient place to recharge, both for us and the car.
