    Pancakes.

    Look as far as Casino Coffee Shops go this on is really good. Always a line. Place is big and open and clean. Irma is a really great server. Coffee is so hot! Food prices and portions are great! We were so hungry I failed to snap a photo of our breakfast before we devoured it

    Tried Cafe Aquarius and what can you say you get what you pay for. 1st thing service was good our waitress was nice and got the order right and checked in on us as well. The food is what you pay for your not going to some high end place its literally cheap eats they have specials going for breakfast and lunch and you can get meals for under 10 dollars with a drink. You can't even get McDonald's for under 10. We got the breakfast and its was ok for what we paid for it cant complain. If your looking to eat something inexpensive with a view of the river this the place.

    Chicken strip sandwich 1/2 cold, reheated and dry

    Great service, 20 minute wait during the holidays. I had the chicken strip sandwich-cheese wasn't melted and the chicken was dry and 1/2 cold. The thick potato fries had a nice breading but were also cold. The cafe is large enough for a crowd and the prices are reasonable.

    CAFE IN PROGRESS... Okay, so the food is not inherently bad here, my parents had some great meals (steak, salads, etc.) but mine was just meh. I ordered the chicken enchiladas as I'm sensitive to a couple of food items on their menu. The enchiladas felt more like nachos, again they didn't taste bad but it was weird. Now, the beans could definitely be improved, they tasted like Rosarita refried beans that you'd get from a can. When you're paying for a sit-down restaurant the level of food should match the location. Service was also lackluster as the waitress, although nice, was not very attentive. Additionally, the host at the front of the restaurant where you get checked-in was very rude and was scowling at us and other guests. He seemed borderline racist tbh, did not like him at all! I feel like they've revamped this restaurant recently and they're trying to work out the kinks. However, I don't see a team here, I see an "every man for himself" work environment and it shows in the food and customer service.

    Turkey Specials

    Service was fantastic was greeted first thing. The manager allowed us to sit up stairs due to my elderly mom. Thanks for being helpful it's always appreciated. I ordered the turkey special. The turkey was moist and flavorful. The meal came with mash potatoes and gravy along with some veggies. They also throw in a drink for $6.99. It was well worth the price. The TVs were on you could watch golf or sports. Great area thanks for taking care of us!

    This is for the daily and monthly specials!! Dang!!!!!! We got the prime rib plate for $8.99!!! Better than those fancy prime rib places. So tender and melts in your mouth!! Even comes with a baked potato! Rita, our server, was great! So nice! They accommodated everything! Can't wait for next time I come back!

    Four cheese omelette

    The food here really hit the spot -- classic, old-fashioned American comfort food done right. I had the biscuits and gravy (only $4.99 on special) and they were excellent. Big portions, tasty, and satisfying. Service was great -- friendly, efficient, and on top of things. The line was long, but it moved quickly, so the wait wasn't bad at all. It was very spacious inside. I think this used to be the buffet place. You can see the water from inside, which is always a bonus. Overall, simple, affordable, and delicious. Exactly what you want when you're craving comfort food.

    The French toast Roll back breakfast! $2.99!

    Not sure why this establishment doesn't have a higher star rating , but our experience here was great! This review was for their breakfast. We waited in line to get seated, but not too long. Sure , it's not a high-end, bougie place...it sure beats your regular Denny's and has better prices! Nicely situated by the Riverwalk, you can get a table looking onto the Colorado River and Riverwalk. The place is clean and while being large; is still quite cozy. Our waitress, Chelsea was FABULOUS! Checking in on us and making sure we are good. The food was great! I had one of their specials going on at the time: French Toast with 3 eggs bacon or sausage for $2.99. My eggs and bacon were cooked perfectly. My French toast was great! Crisp edges..soft middle. Not a fancy French toast, just a classic one. My husband had the corned beef hash breakfast. The corned beef hash had a nice crisp and the sour dough toast was large. My daughter had the chicken fried steak. That thing was HUGE! The gravy was nice and creamy and the chicken friend steak was cooked well. Nice and flavorful and NOT chewy. Would come back again.

    Great food!

    The rollback retro menu was excellent and prices were great too. We ordered 8oz steak & eggs, double cheeseburger and 10oz prime rib dinner all were amazing. The best I've ever tasted in a long time.

    Our bill of 2 burger deals, cheese extra (lame) and some tots.

Walking in on a Friday afternoon during Lent, the place was buzzing. Orders flying, families dining, energy high. Yet somehow, it never felt chaotic. It felt alive. As a first-timer, I signed up for their rewards program on the spot, and that's when Casey stepped in. Friendly, patient, and genuinely attentive, he helped us redeem our introductory discount and guided us through the menu without a hint of impatience. That kind of service stays with you. And the food? Exactly what road-weary travelers dream of. Hot, fresh, comforting, and satisfying in a way that feels earned after miles on the highway. Every bite hit the spot. What stood out most was the balance. A busy location that still delivers warm, personal service and quality food without missing a beat. That's not easy to pull off. This wasn't just a quick stop. It was a reset. A reminder that great service still exists. I'll be thinking about this stop the next time I hit the road.

We ordered a waffle plate, a crepe plate and one shrimp taco, (had to try it) OMG, the shrimp taco was beyond legit! The crepe and waffle were also delicious, fresh as could be and came out hot and perfect. The service was stellar from start to finish, the place is absolutely adorable and super tidy.
