Raw sausage
Honest B.

New ownership! With a certain political lean. Besides that I got raw sausage, warm Gatorade all fed on a dirty table at a snail pace. The burrito is the size of a fist and has gone down hill with new management. Won't get a dime of my money again.

Best burger & frys in Imperial County!!! 5 star service & food quality! Thanks for being here!!

Nice spot to ride to for breakfast or lunch. Small market inside with random food and stuff to buy. Great service plenty of parking in the front. Gets busy. Opens at 8am.

New gas pumps!!!

The carne asada breakfast burritos are the best around, Jason and his family are the most wholesome and helpful people you will ever meet. Always good vibes love the off-roading community. Oh and guess what? They have gas stations now with premium and diesel fuels.

Posting a new 5 review. The new owners have completely changed this place around for the better! The food was amazing, the service was awesome, and we received our food incredibly quickly. The steak and eggs is phenomenal. I didn't have high hopes for a steak from a breakfast place, but it was cooked PERFECTLY. Very impressed. It was a very nice breakfast while out camping. We will absolutely be back again this season!

Best Burgers and Chicken Strips in Anza!! Don't forget to ask for the Ranch Dressing !!

Lunch / Dinner Menu

Now under new ownership! I've boycotted going for years due to how gnarly the past owners were, their bite like a California Green, and now have returned to find new ownership and a new menu- both of which an improvement from the past. They offer a selection of drinks, both carbonated and canned alcoholic, along with simple roadside snacks.

The place is absolutely beautiful it was just redone for this riding season, and the new owner is so kind It is definitely a place to check out if you are in the ocotillo wells area while riding.

Family friendly riding

I'm here for the first time with my family and I am looking forward to a delicious country…read morebreakfast. What a beautiful setting with the mountains in the background and the Sultan sea in the front. I ordered: eggs sausages, hash browns, Rye bread, a short stack of pancakes, and biscuits and gravy. It was hearty and delicious. For a restaurant that is in the middle of nowhere, they know how to make a good breakfast! Friendly: 5 Stars***** Service: 4 Stars**** Pancakes: 3 Stars*** Eggs: 3 Stars*** Biscuits and gravy: 4 Stars**** Sausages: 4 Stars**** Hash Browns: 3 Stars*** Pricing: 3 Stars*** Remember, as far as buying food or drinks you are in the middle of nowhere, so the cost is not cheap. I was told they go shopping every Wednesday for supplies, so understand that when purchasing something! But the people are super nice and friendly and that makes up for pricing in my book.

A sweet little diner at Fountain of Youth hot springs. Home cookin'. Breakfast , lunch, dinner…read more Homemade pies. Friendly lady with a southern accent runs it. Cheap. Daily specials. Thursday is pizza night. NOT open all year; just mid -October through March, 8 am to 7 pm , daily. You can get a free pass to enter the property if you're just going to eat here. Or purchase a spa pass to soak in springs, or stay the night (RV, tent, rental home). I had a bean veggie burger for dinner, and eggs/hash browns/ biscuit for breakfast. I am quite literally a happy camper!

Yucca Valley Outpost is a haven for the wild and free, attracting all sorts of adventurous souls…read moreseeking an escape from the mundanity of everyday life. The landscape around it is a hypnotizing blend of desert, mountains, high plains...with towering cacti and rocky terrain that seem to go on forever. It's the perfect setting for those seeking thrills and a taste of the unconventional. As I wandered around the restaurant, inside and outside, I couldn't help but notice the eclectic mix of people who gather here. There were the hardcore adrenaline junkies, decked out in full gear and ready to conquer the next climbing expedition in Joshua Tree. Then you have the nature lovers, clad in earthy tones who seem at peace with themselves and the world (OMMmmmmmmmmmmm.....) and then you have the free spirits (ME ME ME ! hahahaaa) with the interesting hair and carefree attitudes. Overall, Yucca Valley Outpost is a fantastic Food and People Watching destination for anyone looking to break free from the constraints of modern society and experience the world on the "other side"... and before I forget... the food is delicious !

STOP OMG such a cute spot with great service and food!!! while waiting in line someone recommended…read morei have the 50/50 wrap. and the dirty coco rosie sounded good so i ordered both (added avo to the wrap) and they're AMAZING. it's my first time in joshua tree and this is the best start to my trip i couldve asked for. it's always such a pleasant surprise finding good vegan eats during travel. also there's a view of "kickapoo tr" nearby lol

The woman at the counter, whose name I didn't get but who had pink and white striped hair, refused to serve my boyfriend even though the website said the cafe was open, the door sign said the cafe was open, and people were in the cafe itself eating and drinking coffee at a few of the tables. She said the cafe was closed because she was too busy, even though there were only a few people around. When I asked if it was possible to get coffee, she said alright but we should order the drip coffee because she wasn't very good at making anything else. While we sat and drank our coffees, a group of about six women came up and she let them order food and coffee for the group. A man was next in line and she told him the same thing she told my boyfriend: that she was busy and the cafe was closed. This pattern continued. She served women in groups of any size, but men who asked were told that the cafe was closed. This is unacceptable and I will not be returning, however nice the setting.
