Hands down the best burger spot in East County! My husband and I come here at least once a week,…read moreand it just keeps getting better since they first opened. The burgers are always fresh (they grind their meat on-site) and flavorful, the fries and tots are crispy and delicious, and the milkshakes are a good sweet treat. Their breakfast sandwiches are also seriously underrated! One of the best parts is how friendly and welcoming the owners are! You can tell this is a true family-run business because the whole family works there and treats customers so well. The restaurant is always super clean and has a great atmosphere. Just a heads up, there are no bathrooms, but honestly the food and service more than make up for it. We're so happy to have this place in East County!

It's a walk-up, order and pay first kind of place, then you grab a seat, which was super easy and casual. The person taking my order was incredibly nice and patient while I figured everything out. Honestly, all the food I saw coming out looked amazing, which made it even harder to choose. They have plenty of seating both inside and outside, including a really nice covered patio, which I loved. The service really stood out to me. Even though you order up front, the servers were very attentive and came by multiple times to check on us and offer drink refills, which you don't always get in this type of setup. I ordered the steak plate with mushrooms and mashed potatoes, and everything was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The mushrooms were especially good. The only small thing was I wish the food had been a little hotter when it came out, but the taste definitely made up for it. My only other note is I wish they had unflavored iced tea. All the options were flavored, and since I'm not a soda drinker, that would've been nice to have. Overall, such a great first visit. Great food, great service, and a really comfortable atmosphere. I'll definitely be back.

We ordered delivery and got the Best of Buck Platter, kids corn dogs, cornbread, and apple cobbler…read more The food itself was yummy and clearly has a lot of potential -- flavorful, well-prepared, and the kind of BBQ that would probably shine even more fresh and hot. Unfortunately, the DoorDash experience was rough. We were contacted about a substitution (peach cobbler wasn't available), but the call came through as spam on our phone. After that, there was no immediate notification when the food was dropped off, so it sat outside longer than it should have and arrived cold. This feels like a case of great food undermined by third-party delivery issues. Because the food was genuinely good, we plan to retry Buckboard's in person, where it can be enjoyed the way it's meant to be. I'd recommend dining in or picking up directly rather than delivery.

There were several quirky cute diners in the area so it was tough to choose. Ultimately, Izzy's menu excited me more than the others. I love the barbecue brunch thing going on, too. Very unique and we totally would've tried some ribs had we not gone to Phil's for the first time the night before and had a ton of leftovers. We split a Country Benny and the Jalapeño scramble, which had their homemade pulled pork in it. Julie was an outstanding server. Super patient, attentive, and helpful. You can choose muffins or coffee cake (only $1 extra!) instead of toast, which I love by the way, but I really appreciated that she asked if I had tried the coffee cake because it's not what I thought it was. She explained it as more of a vanilla cupcake with nuts and white icing? Which is kinda random that they call it coffee cake, but it made us opt for the zucchini muffin which was definitely the right choice. Moist, warm, and delicious to nibble on while we waited for the rest of our meal. She also asked if we needed anything else, like salsa, when our entrees came. Which, I usually alwayyys have to request but she was 2 steps ahead of us. The Bloody Mary was tasty and just strong enough to start our afternoon. I'm a huge sucka for biscuits & gravy and theirs really hit the spot. The sausage patty was so good and definitely homemade. Perfectly poached eggs harmoniously smothered in yummy gravy and fluffy biscuits. Crispy hashbrowns, great country potatoes. The scramble was good, too. Pulled pork had a nice smoky flavor and I've never seen nor had it with eggs before which is awesome. The portions were just right. Not huge, but we got full and everything tasted great so what more can you ask for? The deep fried pie! Duh. Super bummed we didn't take a peach one home...

One of the things we appreciate most is that they remember our regular order, which gives the place such a personal and neighborhood feel. The food quality is consistently good and the portions are generous. From the outside, it may not look like much, but don't judge a book by its cover... the food and service keep us coming back. They also have plenty of indoor seating along with some outdoor seating options, which is nice depending on the weather. They also have a private parking lot. Overall, a great local spot with welcoming service and solid food. Definitely worth checking out.

My husband and I have driven past many times and always felt curious. So finally we made a stop on our way home. Let me just say, it did not disappoint! The workers were very friendly and patient with us while we decided on what to order. Once we finished ordering, they actually let you play a game of chance to see if your meal is free! Roll the dice and if you get double fives it's on them. I did not win but I thought that was fun! I cannot stress this enough, the food was amazing! It's definitely a MUST try! Just be warned; cause like I said before this is a food cart in the parking lot of a liquor store. Nothing wrong with it but there isn't a lot of sit down options or anything like that. So if you're looking for a place to stay a while and sit to enjoy your meal. This place might have to wait for another day!

Devyn made sure everything was perfect, kept checking in at the right times, and had such a great attitude the whole experience felt personal instead of rushed.

It's rare to come across someone who actually makes you want to come back because of how well they treat people. Devyn absolutely deserves recognition for going above and beyond. Texas Roadhouse needs more people like that. Definitely one of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time.

Everything is INSANE. I've even interviewed the "meat guys" who hang out with the giant smokers in the back lot and basically babysit the meat 24/7. They take their job very seriously, and it shows in the quality of the meat! The bartender made me a mezcal margarita once, and I had three that night and now think of them often. It's what gets me back in the door here. The mezcal marg and the meat. The live music is always awesome. We came recently and saw the Blind Miles Blues Band play - their vibe fit with the ambiance of the restaurant so well. It was awesome that our kids were able to run around and play while we ate dinner and talked. I am SO thankful for a restaurant that has food this good that also freely welcomes families with kids! Our waiter that night, Bryce, was awesome. He was SO attentive and so patient and kind when we had a bunch of requests for extra everything. We'll probably request him next time, he was that cool. Can't say enough good things about this place. I already can't wait to come back again!

The menu is long and varied. There is definitely something for everyone here. We ordered a decaf cappuccino to start. Warning, unless you specify a regular size they will bring you the large, 16 ounce by default. I would prefer if they asked what size we wanted first. We ordered the shakshuka, the veggie georgian cheese pie and the soufflé pancake. The pancake takes 20-30 minutes and cones with a bit of whip cream some fruit and syrup. Overall the shakshuka and the pie were very good. The soufflé pancake was a bit of a let down. Let's just say I've had better Japanese soufflé pancakes elsewhere. I would likely go back and try some of their other dishes.
