    Drink menu 9/5/2025
    Rob M.

    Family decided to try this restaurant based on good things we heard from friends. Very clean restaurant with excellent service. Son got the California Breakfast burrito, wife got a wet asada Burrito with green sauce (Burrito Ahogado), and I got a pound of three different types of carnita meats (Carnitas por Libra). All the dishes were well liked and VERY filling. My carnitas order came with six handmade tortillas. The carnitas I had were very moist and had a great taste. Overall, I'd rate this as another above average Mexican restaurant in town! They have special cocktail offerings, wine, and bottled beer. Small dining area, so there is only one waitress.

    Yelp didn't steer me wrong, the reviews are legit. The place is adorable, decor is cute. Lovely vibe. Waitress was the nicest and helpful. Food did take a bit of time but came fresh and hot, did not disappoint. We had menudo, flautas, carne asada fries and shrimp tacos. The chicharrones themselves need a review, chefs kiss! If I lived in this area I'd be a regular!

    This review is long overdue, but this is truly our favorite place to eat! Food is delicious and we always love trying something new. What makes it really special are the staff and owner. They are always kind and welcoming when they see us. It feels like we are eating at home with family.

    I heard about this spot and finally decided to check it out. They did not disappoint. The food, drinks and service was amazing.

    Absolutely delicious--Carnitas Purepecha is the best I've had so far! I haven't been to the store in person yet, but I've ordered through DoorDash multiple times and it's always spot on. I usually get the family meals and they're loaded with everything you need: soft, tender carnitas, fresh handmade tortillas, flavorful salsas, rice, and beans. The portions are generous and perfect for sharing (or having leftovers). Whether you're treating yourself or feeding the whole crew, this place is a must. Definitely my go-to for carnitas now!

    I always get the carne en su juego and my hubby the carnitas. Today we decided to switch it up and I had the menudo and he had the quessabirrillas. They were both delicious. The have new items on their menu will definitely be back to try the est of the food.

    Carnitas salad bowl to-go.

    Service was friendly and attentive. Ambiance is simple but nice and clean. I loved the cumbia music that was playing. I got the carnitas salad bowl to go and it was delicious! Well balanced, flavorful, and a significant portion that left me happy and full. I had a michelada with Pacifico while I waited. The michelada was simple but good. Came in a large glass with a shrimp, and slice of Orange and chamoy over the top. I was also offered free chips and salsa which I gladly accepted. Great for a quick lunch meal and the carnitas are delicious.

The outdoor patio is quite large and for a warm day, it's shaded and comfortable. They have a fun drink menu, and do mimosa flights with unique flavors. I tried their red sangria and enjoyed it, it's not too sweet and more tart. My friend had the lemon drop, and at first it wasn't the proper color of one it was more orange than yellow. We had an accident with the baby and he knocked over the drink and water and they were kind enough to remake her the cocktail and the next time around it was the correct color and tasted better. The food menu also had unique items, I was intrigued to try a few things! We started with the ceviche, I really liked it! Typically I always go for chilaquiles so I was torn but I decided to be different and since it is a crepe place I went with the mushroom and bacon crepe. The sauce they use on the crepe is decently spicy, so if you're spice sensitive I recommend getting it on the side. My friend's daughter had the breakfast crepe and it also had the same sauce and she had to eat around it, but she trooped through! My girlfriend ordered the steak bowl and she enjoyed it, it came with a lot of steak!

We were visiting from out of town and decided to stop by because of the excellent reviews this place had received. When we first walked in, one of the employees asked what I wanted. I explained that I was waiting for my husband before ordering. She responded by saying, "Oh well, they're waiting," referring to the customers behind me. I immediately replied, "That's fine, go ahead!" so the other customers could order first, but her reaction afterward felt dismissive and somewhat annoyed. We later placed and paid for our order. Shortly after, my husband decided he wanted a Biscoff latte instead, so we politely asked if the drink could be changed. Another employee kindly stepped in and said she could do it, which we appreciated. I specifically asked for the drink to be changed to an iced Biscoff latte. Unfortunately, when the drinks came out, mine was still hot instead of iced. I went back up respectfully and let them know there had been a mix-up. Both employees looked at each other and chuckled in what came across as annoyance. I even apologized for the inconvenience, but the first employee responded by saying, "We are just too busy." I completely understand that working in customer service can be overwhelming, and I always try to be patient and understanding. However, at the time there were only a couple of seated customers and just the two of us waiting for our drinks, so the comment felt unnecessary. By that point, the interaction from the moment we walked in had already made the experience feel uncomfortable. We ended up grabbing our drinks and leaving disappointed. I usually enjoy leaving positive reviews, especially for small businesses, so it was unfortunate because we came in excited after reading such wonderful things about this place.

    We've eaten at the Hot Rod Diner in Ceres and were very impressed with this place. So after church…read moretoday we decided to try the one in Turlock, thinking we'd experience the same quality food and service. We were sadly mistaken. Entering the restaurant, the first thing that caught our attention was the dirty floor, littered with food and paper products throughout the restaurant. Coffee and water came out quickly but never had a refill on the coffee until I had finished my meal. Not because I didn't want any, but our server was busy with other tables and didn't get to us until we were almost done. My wife's meal was mostly ok, but the English Muffin was hard enough to use as hockey pucks. My chicken fried steak had a weird flavor and not sure if it was on the gravy or the seasoning used on the meat. But it was just so-so, nothing to write home about. Best thing was the eggs, done perfectly and hashbrowns were pretty decent. Biggest complaint was the slow service, probably due to it being grad weekend and they were pretty busy with families (according to the cashier), and the extremely dirty place. The bathroom was also dirty, obviously nobody had cleaned it for quite a while. I blame management for not planning ahead and having at least 1 or 2 extra servers/busboys on hand to handle the larger crowd. We decided to return to the Ceres location and call that our home for Hod Rod Diner food. As another recommendation, I suggest taking the carpet out and just having a plain floor; much easier to keep clean than a carpet.

Nice portions of food were you can take home. Since I was hungry and my boyfriend had already eaten, we decided to share the 1/2 sandwich and their soup of the day-a bowl of chicken n rice, DELICIOUS. Wonderful friendly helpful waitresses, who are attentive, great customer service, inside and outside seating-weather permitting. Right of Fwy 99 and Main St., in Turlock. Opens at 6:00 am and closes at 3 pm everyday- its a diner, and casual atmosphere! I would highly recommend my family, friends, and new comers. The waitresses are so friendly in Turlock and the cook is so cool. They are all off of Fwy 99 in Hilmar, Ceres and Turlock off of Main St nearby the freeway and and you will see McDonald's on your right side and Hot Rod on your left side facing the freeway. ENJOY! UPDATE: Went again a week ago, and yes the soup was delicious! We learned today that they have a variety of soups of the day. Even the lentil soup was delicious that we decided to take a bowl home to share or not.
