She walked away from the register right after we walked up, so a second girl took our order, which I was glad for her to do. The first girl, after walking away, proceeded to drop multiple f-bombs as if she had no idea how to behave in public. When she brought our pizza to the table I told her we also ordered a salad, which she apparently ignored, and after waiting at least another 20 minutes, my husband also told her we ordered a salad and got nothing. We finished our pizza, asked for a box, then we got the salad just as we were about to walk out. Note to the owner: this young lady should be let go. Her behavior is bad for business and left a terrible first impression of the town.

But, I'm not writing a review of a DMV, I'm writing a review of my lunch at Smash. Those DMV ladies wanted to know where we ate and they agreed, these are the best burgers for a 1000 miles around. I had the mushroom swiss, my son had the regular smash. Deceptively HUGE sandwiches on buttered buns, cooked just right, and seasoned! Fries were tasty. We got there a bit earlier than lunch and didn't question it being empty on a Wednesday, but then we watched the place fill up. People were talking until food arrived and then it was just quiet. That tells you a lot. Can't talk while you're eating. Then I had them pack up all three dessert choices in the display because we could not decide. Chocolate cake, Nutella cheesecake and lemon cheesecake. We drove the two hours home and then sampled...I got one bite of the Nutella and then my son stole it! The husband snarfed the chocolate cake and I hid the lemon from both of them. Waitstaff friendly, workin' hard. Happy to tip.

We were quickly welcomed in by the nice lady at the counter. The service was truly top notch! I had a Gyro that was everything I was looking for, hot and juicy with crunchy onions and a great sauce. My husband had their double cheese burger with avocado and pepper jack. We split a basket of picadillies with cheese which were the fluffiest steak fries turned bite size and they were perfect! We also shared a cup of their chocolate soft serve which took us back to childhood. Pro Tip: The chocolate soft serve pairs perfectly with the picadillies! We will absolutely be back on our next trip through Ely!

Patio seating was great in the shade. We enjoyed our meal here. And the steam locomotive went by. Cute town!

The historic Hotel Nevada converted their restaurant to a Denny's franchise a few years ago. When…read morewe asked locals for a place to eat I'm unsure why more than one of them said, "don't go to Denny's". It's convenient, breakfast is included with your room, and it's really no different than any other Denny's anywhere. We went on two consecutive mornings when we visited Ely and although the service was a little slow during the breakfast the food was well prepared, presented and the server was very courteous. The food was exactly as expected, and I can't imagine how breakfast could be much better than this anywhere else in town. It was certainly several levels above any chain hotel buffet of heated up, pre-prepared foods. Tip - when staying for the free breakfast take the option of applying five dollars off of any menu item instead of the free breakfast. It's pretty skimpy. We paid about $25 for a very nice breakfast this way. Give it a try, especially if you're staying in the hotel. There aren't a lot of other options in Ely.

Four of my friends and I went to dinner here last Friday night and while we were waiting to be served they were complaining about the last time they had been in and how long it took to get there food. This time was no exception. The place was somewhat busy and I believe there was only one waitress. The atmosphere was noisy, the waitress was friendly and on top of it as she could be. The food was average and took a while to get. This being said it is Eureka NV with not many choices for places to work or eat so if you decide to stop in you will have to just grin and bare it.

There wasn't much of a choice. Service was ok, I think the poor boy was overworked managing the whole dining room himself and rude demanding customers screaming at him. Interior was nothing special, felt a little dirty. Had to ask for condiments. My hubbys cheeseburger was good but my chicken Philly cheesesteak had gigantic chicken slices so I can't pick it up and bite into it without the chicken falling out. I'm used to small, shredded pieces of chicken in a cheesesteak! Lemonade tastes like cough syrup. Afterwards, I had the worst stomachache the whole way home back to California. I know it's the desert but I would skip. PS: what is up with all the broken and chipped plates??? This shows this place truly does not care about the perception and the dining experience. Check out my broken chipped plate. My hubbys plate was worst with multiple chipped spots, can't see too well but check out his cheeseburger picture, you can see a chip on his plate.
