Front of restaurant.

My son and I have developed a thing for diner food recently. The more retro and nostalgic, the better. This place is clean, pleasantly worn and dated. There is a ton of local railroad memorabilia. Honestly it is so perfectly old, it felt like a movie set because places that have frozen in this era of dining are going extinct rapidly. The service is very friendly. The food was excellent. It's not "fancy". I loved the parsley sprigs and orange slices for garnish. If you want something new and edgy, go elsewhere. If you want simple comfort food, this is your stop. I had the hot beef sandwich. The mashed potatoes are home made and very rich and creamy with little chunks of potato throughout. The bread was better than average white bread. The roast beef was house made, not deli meat. It was very savory and tender, but had a pleasant chew to it. The gravy was silky and savory. My son had the club sandwich, again, very fresh ingredients, meat, cheese and veggies piled high. He got a generous pile of fries with it which were crispy on the outside and tender. My husband had the liver and onions. It came with a nice sized slice of fried liver, beautiful grilled onions, two strips of crisp bacon and more of those lovely mashed potatoes. His salad was crisp iceberg with grape tomatoes, a very usual diner salad. But the blue cheese dressing was homemade and very good. We did not have dessert, but I have something to come back for as Shoshone is a sweet little town with tons of beautiful historic buildings.

Coconut Cream Pie and Coffee

This was a terrific dinner! We had breakfast burgers French Dip and the special. ALL were great! Big portions and everything tasted really good too. The Chocolate Malt was the best I've had in a long time. The fries were perfect! Crispy outside tender inside. The pickle chips on the side were great! The blue cheese dressing, which is house made, was out of this world. And to finish off the meal house made pies! Coconut Cream and Chocolate Mint..WOW! So good! And the coffee was wonderful to go with the breakfast and pies! Would absolutely recommend this place and want to go back again!

1890 menu!!! How cool!

How classics! I love the picture amplifying the rich history of this quaint railroad town. The food is well portioned AND they have pie! A must see and taste while traveling through this sweet little town.

Downtown Shoshone's Wyant's Manhattan Cafe

The Manhattan Cafe is like the kind of place my grandfathers used to take me to fifty years ago. Filling comfort food in a down home atmosphere that probably hasn't changed since the 1960s. This is truly a step back in time to a "white bread" era. If you don't enjoy well cooked meat with potatoes this isn't the place for you. I don't typically seek out this type of cuisine on a regular basis, but, on a road trip, I find it to be quite satisfying. As for the food, I'd give it a three star rating; it could have tasted more fresh. But the coffee was good and the blue cheese on the garden salad wasn't bad at all. I suppose I'd eat her again, but might try some of the other local places first as I don't go through Shoshone more than three or four times each year.

Driving from Vegas to WA State will likely take you through some lonely highways. Once you tackle…read moreNV (and say hello to Jackpot NV), you're in ID and not long after is Rogerson ID, home of a super cute saloon style diner with great food called Buster's. While they're known for their finger steaks (google it), we elected to order a few other items and while my wife got a super good sandwich, I got a chili burger and it was exactly what I hoped for. The chili was great, it was a large burger patty and all in all, with the additional "Sidewinder" fries, was a great filling meal after driving and driving and driving and well, driving. For those that look at the photo and wonder just how bad for me that delicious chili burger was, may I just note in my defense that Buster's have a BLT with a full pound of bacon (!!) on the menu. While it was absolutely calling my name, I'd like to think that getting the chili burger was my twisted mind rationalizing that it was healthy...(by comparison at least). Great food, warm and friendly service--saved to bookmarks!

Stopped in for dinner last night and so glad we did!!! The food is AWESOME and the service was…read moregreat! We had cheese curds (a little spicy!), chili cheese sidewinders, the finger steaks with mashed potatoes and white gravy, shrimp chowder, and a chicken fried steak dinner with salad and a baked potato. All the sauces were made in house and the food was very fresh! SO GOOD and can't wait to get back! P.S. They do prime rib on Saturdays and have lots of other specials that sounded delicious too :)
