Stopped in again for a quick dinner. No hot tea , no hot coffee. WHAT?? That's weird. Had to try the cheese curd hot honey burger. So big I had to take the second patty off to eat it. Only ate half of it. But the cheese curds were tasty! read more

Iron Skillet - Hot Honey Cheese Curd Smash Burger - New American Near Me - Spokane, Washington

Met an old work friend for lunch. We grabbed a booth way in back so her large dog could join us. They weren't busy at all. According to their website, and yelp, there should be a salad bar. Nope. I had a chef salad that was all white iceberg lettuce, a few onion rings, and some cuke slices. And a pile of yellow cheese I didn't want. Never-the-less, it was all fresh and crisp. My friend had a crispy chicken sandwich which wasn't bad at all. The food was unimportant really as we just wanted a quiet place to converse. For that purpose it was great. The gal that waited on us was very nice and did a good job. read more

They used to be so much better. But after shut downs a few years ago they couldn't find anyone to work here, except for the convenience store and Starbucks. And the Subway is long gone. It seems they have at least figured out how to keep the kitchen open with regular hours, but the food is only okay now. Nothing really stood out to praise, other than the host guy who seemed to be doing everything but cooking did a great job. Our wait was long, but our daughters and my guy never have a problem chatting until the food arrives. read more

PSA: I have no idea what is going on with this place? The scamdemic was hard on their ops, and it's been a rough go, I guess. They state they are Iron Skillet, but the TA-Petro website indicates no Iron Skillet at this location? There's a diner-like thing going on here, but no one is sure what the hours are? That's not fair to truckers who are looking for more than a Subway sammie on their mandatory 36-hr rest stops. Lunch was fine today, but when don't I love truck stop fare, right? One staff member told me they close at 2PM, and another said 8PM. They need to figure it out. I am interested to see how they look to the future, now that a mega truck stop is planned in the Geiger area, one I-90 exit away... read more

Not very good the service was poor and I think the place is closed now. The salad bar was hit and miss.

We had a great experience here. Our server, Robert, was personable and kind--made sure everything was tasty and also anticipated refills. The salad and club sandwich that I had were good and filling. Would definitely stop by again. read more

I travel for work, and always looking for a good place to eat on lunch. This has been by far the best find I've had on the road. Every single item on the menu is delicious and well presented on the plate. Love the environment and service. These people work very hard and provide great read more

Long wait for the waitress to talk to us first thing. Then another one to get our water since no decaf. Now no English muffin because they're frozen. She was the only person working so had to cut her some slack. Won't make it point to come back. read more

Iron Skillet is open from 6am to 10pm the whole week, including weekends. Full menu American diner.

Food was average the few times we've gone. Not enough choices on the menu to choose from. You order from the counter. Not customer service oriented from that stand point in our opinion. There is no real Ambiance. read more

Great place if you enjoy bad service, items on the menu constantly not available, and cold overpriced food. It's not this location in specific, the whole chain seems to have this problem. I've given the place 4 chances in different states and the result has always been the same read more

self order... prepay, than u wait 30 min + for a cold breakfast... stay away, they dont care of customers. worst iron skilet in US read more

Just walked in this establishment on a Monday at 4:30 and they said they are closed ... While the other 3 tables of people finish their food Would of loved to try it very disappointed read more

I have been to this location several times and the waitress There is just so outstanding she goes above and beyond the amount of work she does all by herself is incredible and she's so impressive and nice at the same. Unreal the work she can handle by herself and I also see her doing dishes a lot. Sad that there isn't any help for the young lady. I can't remember her name but she is a tall blonde with tattoos. I have been to several of the locations and never seen anyone like her. She works the night - swing shift to her great service thank you read more

I grew up in truck stops riding with my dad in his semi truck, so they always have a special place in my heart. Lots of unhealthy food, the waitress calling you "Hon", etc. I also happen to be a big proponent of buffets. This establishment offers the best of both worlds, sort of. You can either partake of the buffet or just order specific things off the menu. Sadly, the effort put into the food is just average. It isn't horrible, but I could have easily made anything I ate better myself. Also looks like this location hasn't had a really good deep cleaning in some time, which is a little unsettling. The staff here does an adequate job, but they seem to kind of stumble through the day as if they were all really tired. This place isn't horrible, but it just feels like they could do a lot better with a little more effort. read more

Loved the buffet!! Our server was attentive and friendly even though he didn't have to be; it was a buffet after all. The salad bar was fresh, and well tended to; the ranch dressing was perfect. Try their fried chicken and mashed potatoes! Mmmmmm mmmmm good. The "brisket" was flavorless and tough. Clean, fast (because we ate at the buffet) They even refill your drinks in to go cups at no cost. read more

This is no longer the iron skillet. Which is fine bc the food was only mediocre. It's not a sit down restaurant like you would think either. Waitress was very nice. read more

I will always go out of my way for a Petro Iron Skillet !!! They are one of the few chains left that actually bread and cook your chicken fried steak on site. Most everyone else uses a pre cooked frozen puck. Never had a bad meal if I order off of the menu. The buffet looks pretty standard. The best part of any truck stop meal anywhere in the United States??? It's a guarantee that there is a fat old loudmouth sitting at the counter talking WAY too loud to anyone nearby about how much weight he's pulling... or how bad his dispatch is. Wear earplugs and get the CFS and eggs read more

Solid lil breakfast joint. Fast and friendly service. Good sized portions for a fair price. Always leave happy and full.

As usual great food and people. They do close after lunch most days since they can't find a night cook. You know with all the free government stuff people done need a job. It's sad, because this is a great food place. The double bacon cheeseburger I didn't photo well. Two huge real burger patties I am so full. Usually more than you can eat read more

Good Food! Friendly staff. Tastes great. I had the Smash burger with fries and everything was as pictures

Not only was the food low in quality but it was also low in quantity. We spent $18 here. There are plenty of other places i would have excitedly and eagerly spent that money - time and location were the deciding factors tonight. The following items were ordered: one fried fish plate, one order of french toast and a side of french fries. Portions were much much smaller than their asking price. read more

Passing by on I-90 close to the airport we needed a sit down restaurant for dinner. Unfortunately I picked the Iron Skillet. Their menu was limited to mainly burgers and sandwiches and the very friendly staff recommended the buffet. We picked the buffet and found the majority of selections to be cold and not seasoned with anything recognizable. Maybe it was timing or just a bad night but I would recommend passing on by. Spokane is only a few more minutes and has a plethora of choices. read more

When I eat here it's usually because I'm running short on time and need to grab a quick bite. I eat their buffet every time. The food is ok, nothing to call mom about. The staff is super friendly. read more

Im a food snob and dinner was amazing the clam cheddar salad steak Iron Skillet is the best truck stop restaurant. Mind you people who give low stars to good places their palat changes with their emotional state. Feed them the same food blind different places and days they'll rate it differently read more

5 star rating for a truck stop diner. Friendly staff, listened to special requests, pretty good food (better than expected based on previous ratings). We will come back here anytime we are passing through. Great find read more

I am a huge fan of all you can eat salad bars, especially ones that serve chopped hard boiled eggs. With the demise of the Sizzler chain, my cravings for a good salad bar have been mostly unfulfilled, until I discovered this place. Dining here has been a welcome break from my studies at Eastern Washington University, and now that I am set to graduate in 2 weeks, it saddens me to realize that I will not be able to scratch my salad itch without driving for a while. The only thing that would make it perfect is if they brought back diced ham as one of the offerings they put out. They used to put it out, years ago, but replaced it with something else about 2 years ago. Amazing to find such a gem in a humble place like a truck stop, especially for some place so close to college. read more

Truck stop with home cooking. I had the prime rib special with the fabulous sides, potatoes, mushrooms, and veggies. Great value for the money. read more

Iron Skillet - Truck stop diner. - New American Near Me - Spokane, Washington

You drive around, sometimes you get hungry. It was nearing the end of a day of driving and I could not stand the thought of fast food. I headed in to the Iron Skillet and was promptly greeted after grabbing a seat at the counter. The menu is standard American fare leaning toward belt extensions. I chose not to go with the grilled cheese with a quarter pound of cheddar since I don't feel the need to meet any cardiologists this week. I did go with the "sensible selections" pot roast which was a half portion of the pot roast along with a trip to the soup and salad bar. As with most salad bars it can be very healthy or very deadly depending on what you select. The ingredients were nice and fresh but the dressing options were fairly limited to creamy dressings, no oil and vinegar options in sight. There were also some fried shrimp, chicken and ribs. The shrimp were ok but the drumstick was almost too dry to eat comfortably. The half portion of roast came with gravy, fried onions and potato. I went with baked and the potato was very large. The portion of meat was way more than I could eat so I was glad I went with the smaller serving. At $8.99 it was a good value for the money. The roast was tender and tasty and was a very nice change from the fast food choices on the road. Iron Skillet would not necessarily be my first choice but I would stop in again. Service was friendly and the waitress made sure she got my order right which I appreciated. read more

I'm not too keen on roadside restaurants but this one surprised me. What really pulled me in was how clean the restrooms were. Dyanna, our sever was the picture of customer service. The food was good. I'll go back! read more

Had the breakfast buffet. Nice choice of foods :biscuits and gravy hash browns two kinds off scrabbled eggs ,ham, sausage, bacon and corned beef hash, also some sort of sausage with green pepper , fruit , breakfast cereals, french toast oh yes and grits! I may have left some things out. A hot pot off coffee was set at our table. The price was 8.99 Typical truck stop with most of the customers being single men who were there getting breakfast before hitting the road. Nice and clean and have TVs so you can catch up on the latest news while eating. read more

Service is ok, lunch buffet was bad , dry rice , not many options to choose from , u can't make bad food taste good just because u asked ur customer how they are doin especially if u didn't care in the first place . Not worth the money , do I recommend it ? No it's over priced for the quality of food ur gonna get . read more

A laid back place that serves basic simple food. A small soup and salad bar that's actually included with your dinner meals. We've come here several times and have never had a bad experience. read more

Great buffet spread friendly staff amazing prices good ambience and a Starbucks next-door just can't be that awesome place to stop by

All I have to let you is I looked up to see the cook digging her gloved finger into her ear for over a min. Eyes closed. Arm swaying back and forth. Head tilted. Then returned to working in the kitchen with food, without changing gloves, or washing her hands.We left shortly in nearly throwing up and in disgust. That's all you need to know. So gross. read more
