    Chicken fried steak and eggs with hashbrowns and toast. Sorry forgot to take the pic until halfway done with my steak.
    Bill H.

    I had breakfast - chicken fried steak and eggs with toast. It was very good and extremely fast. Service was super friendly and attentive. The quality of the food is not going to win any Michelin awards, but it beats IHOP and Village Inn by a mile. Overall, well worth it and I will be going back to explore other things on the menu. Ambiance is set to resemble the original Elmers which I only went to once or twice so I don't have the nostalgic attachment that some have. To me, it is a simple atmosphere, but clean and that is important.

    Outside front entrance,  looking towards Montana. Not sure they are using the patio yet.

    So we went to The NEW ELMER'S DINNER, not Diner. It in an old "Good coffee" place on Montana. Looks pretty much the same outside, very sparse inside. But wait help was friendly. Place wasn't too full at 2pm this day. I ordered the open-faced roast beef sandwich, something is I've been craving but no one seems to make anymore, and surely not in El Paso, and of COURSE, I got some fried chicken, the breast and Leg order. The sandwich was one big slice of deli-style roast beef, lying across 4 pieces of triangle cut white bread and some thin, to brownish but clear gravy, also mashed potatoes. It tasted Alright but they needed a lots more meat on on that for the price, and it needed to be piled up, and mashed taters should have been on the plate to make it a true open-faced gravy slathered yummy meal. Green beans would be great with this. Now the chicken, OMG, it's with the trip alone. It's still the homemade handmade recipe you remember. Served straight out the fryer, about a 15 minute wait while it cooks. I love it with white rice and cream gravy. Some hot homemade yeast rolls would be perfect with this. Help was super friendly. Place was clean. And quiet. Very quiet. It could have used some piped in low volume music or a radio station on to UP the comfort feel of the place. Don't sleep on Elmer's. Let's keep them low and busy this time! .

    Great service but food left me puzzled. Open faces roast beef sandwich was one slice of warmed over deli roast beef with a little jar gravy. Inedible. Expected more for $10.50. Avoid sandwiches and go for the fried chicken. Customers I spoke too said it was very good.

    If you're looking for a brunch spot in El Paso that brings together great food, genuine…read morehospitality, and live music--The Junction Brunch House is a standout. I kept it classic with waffles, bacon, and eggs--and it absolutely hit the mark. The waffles were light, fluffy, and perfectly golden, the bacon was cooked just right, and everything came out fresh and satisfying. Simple comfort food done right. But what really elevated the experience was the atmosphere. They had live musical entertainment by Louie, who was incredible. He played a mix of hits from yesterday and today, moving effortlessly between country & western, contemporary favorites, and traditional Spanish songs. His versatility created a warm, lively environment that both staff and customers clearly enjoyed--it added something special you don't find everywhere. Service was just as impressive. Our server, XAY, had a bright, welcoming smile and provided outstanding service from start to finish. They offered great suggestions on local favorites and specials, which made the experience feel personal rather than routine. The vibe overall is relaxed, inviting, and very "El Paso"--a place where you can sit, enjoy your meal, and stay a while. Overall: Delicious, well-executed brunch classics Live music that enhances the experience (not overwhelms it) Exceptional, friendly service Comfortable, welcoming atmosphere Would I go back? Without a doubt. This is more than just brunch--it's an experience.

I arrived just after 8:30 am, but there was plenty of room. I got seated at the bar, and got to see everything. I asked for coffee, and it came quick and hot. Then i took a look at the menu, but the nice thing about the bar is that you can see everything that was ordered get prepped. I ordered a pozole rojo. It was a good choice, according to me... it was a lot of food. It came with a slice of toasted and buttered bolillo bread. It was loaded with more pork, than hominy - a lot. The server came by to ask if I needed a box. The Junction is a diner, with a railroad ambiance. Plenty of train station themes, I think there were a lot of clocks on the wall - but I don't think that they were working... or that they were on time. I noticed a couple of plates that I would want to try... the chicken fried steak, the biscuits and gravy with fried eggs on top, peach cobber side, the fresh biscuit with chipotle butter. It all looked good. The breakfast tacos seemed basic, but a lot of folks ordered them - they must know. There is seating inside, table and bar, and outside under the shade. I saw enough that I would return with Liz (...and the kids). I recommend, but I do recommend getting there early. It's a popular locale.

I also loved the vibes and the decor. My only complaint is that it was pretty crowded inside, which made it a little difficult to bring my baby in his infant car seat. Just a little FYI for the moms who are thinking about bringing their little ones! Other than that, I really enjoyed it and would definitely come back.

    For starters I would say this spot was simply okay. I would bring some friends here for drinks and…read morevibes but I wouldn't come back on my own accord. For starters the atmosphere was so cute. Absolutely loved the bar and hanging pots everywhere. Such a clean restaurant and cute vibe. Our waitress was very nice and friendly to us. So no issues there! For drinks I got their berry lemonade which tasted just like lemon juice. I had to request for sugar to be added since it was so sour so beware. My food had came out and to be honest I'm just a little bit disappointed. The rigatoni was cooked but the sauce for it was really not tasty? Like there was almost not a flavor I can taste. Of course there was something but it was very plain and barely even there. It also was not spicy whatsoever. I added grilled chicken too and oh boy was that dry dry DRY. The burrata personally I'm not a fan in general so of course I wouldn't be a fan this time either but they gave a nice little plate full of it. They added some oiled toasted bread and it was way too crispy in my opinion. My partner got the chicken Parmesan and his dish tasted great! Very juicy chicken and cooked all the way. The sauce was perfect too nice and flavorful and great pairing with the chicken. His butter noodles were just like regular butter noodles so not bad. Finally the crème brûlée. Probably the most disappointing dish we ordered. It took repeated stabs to break the sugar glaze on top. Me and my partner were honestly thinking that they added the cream on top to hide how burnt it was actually. Unfortunately because the glaze was so thick and burnt it made the rest of the cream taste have the burnt flavor. It was sad because my partner was looking forward to this desert. Also took wayyy longer to arrive than our entrées. I will say that the waitress was very helpful and she actually covered the crème Brulé. I didn't even ask she just offered, I think she could tell that we didn't enjoy it and I had nicely told her it wasn't what we were expecting so thank you sincerely. Overall I think this is a perfect spot to maybe try drinks and hang with friends. Food was okay, wouldn't try it again in that regard but overall a decent spot here in El Paso if you're looking for something new. Maybe best to ask what's their best dish to serve. Overall thank you.

We had a hummus appetizer to start off with, beautiful presentation; we practically licked the plate. Then we ordered three entrées. We had the chicken pasta dish, the chicken pesto sandwich, and the mushroom ravioli. Each of the dishes was beautifully plated/presented, and the flavors and complexity of each dish was absolutely perfect. I had a glass of wine, then a whiskey strawberry cocktail, which was super refreshing and beautiful. The bill came out to about $97 for two alcoholic beverages, a tea, an appetizer and three entrées, which is really good in my opinion. I am so looking forward to trying their brunch and their high tea very soon. And I learned that they have great specials Wednesday through Friday. Half of tapas and wine on Wednesdays! I'm so there!!!!

I enjoyed mine red, with eggs over easy. The pancakes were good, but I was really impressed with the whipped cream's flavor...it was dense, not overly sweet, and no after taste. Noah's chicken and waffles was good enough that he didn't leave any for anybody to taste. It was a lot easier to get into than the place next door. I recommend.

On August 13, my wife and I visited this place for an early lunch. You order at the counter and your order is delivered to your table. My wife ordered the Grilled Chicken Sandwich. I order the Border Burger: Vegan patty with vegan chorizo, vegan cheese avocado and mixed veggies with a side of fries. My wife liked that it was a piece of chicken and not the processed cubbed meat and overcooked. However, she said that it lacked of seasoning. My vegan burger was from Impossible Burgers. It was disappointing. I had expected a home made patty.The fries were a mixed of cold and hot potatoes. I was too hungry to get up to complain at the counter that was busy. I noticed that they serve Picacho Roasters coffee from Las Cruces that I love. We had already have had coffee at home so we settled for plain water. On the side of the counter they have a water dispenser for you to take. The water in the container wasn't cold so I asked for a cup with ice. I read about the delicious donuts so I had one, it was amazing. It is lovely hip place north of downtown with street parking available.
