    Surprisingly decent diner, given it's attached to a small casino in Winnemucca. Great service.

    Rib steak,very tasty.

    My husband had the rib steak. And I had the Tex chicken salad, his was perfectly prepared and tasted and looked great. Mine was very good. They make the best garlic bread. I could have ate a loaf. Service was very good. Ambiance was comfortable. Very nice little restaurant. Presentation was very nice. Prices are very reasonable.

    Careful portions are large

    Excellent place to get breakfast in Winnemucca. It's on the main strip close to the gas station when you're either coming or going out of town. There was plenty of parking. Everyone was really nice. The food portions are large so go hungry or consider splitting or do what I did, and take your bacon and a little baggie to go, I will definitely be back. Thanks for the great service Model T team.

    Large, clean and reasonable price. Ate breakfast only and it was very early so not crowded. No idea what it might be like during a rush. There is nothing gourmet or artisan about this place. It's basic. Server was sweet. 4 stars cause, of it's class, it hit the marks.

My hashbrowns were properly cooked but not very tasty. They tasted a little old. My husband really liked his Sid's omelette. Since he eats Keto, he let me have his toast and he had sour cream on his omelette. He was very happy with his meal. Service was delightful. The restaurant was very clean, including the bathrooms. The staff was attentive and pleasant. I noticed a lot of the other patrons know each other from around town. It was Mother's Day and people were bringing their daughters, mothers, and grandmothers in for a meal. Overall, this place has a cheerful, bustling atmosphere.

The pasta had an ample amount of the veggies in a rich sauce the wasn't overly seasoned. We really enjoyed the Parmesan sourdough on the sandwich and felt like there was a good amount of condiments. The interior is roomy with ample seating. Service was always very friendly, albeit a little on the slow side. A few of our orders were filled incorrectly or extra requests for sauces forgotten. Our fries came out completely unseasoned, so make sure to ask for what you want to dip them in!

I ordered the Surf and Turf which consisted of Carne Asada, Deep fried shrimp, rice & beans, and my choice of tortillas. I really enjoyed my meal. It was Fantastic!! My Daughter ordered Birria Tacos. She's recently discovered how good birria is. She has, for the longest time, only orders Chicken Quesadilla. I am talking many years. It was nice to see she has expanded her palate. Her mom is a big enchilada fan and that is what she ordered. One cheese and one chicken with rice and beans. I usually fly solo going to Idaho and always stop at this restaurant as my half way there spot. It was their first time going. We also had some tasty margaritas!! And a Michelada. The food was very good. Everyone really enjoyed it. Our waitress was awesome and very friendly. 5*

We can always count on its friendly service, reliable Mexican-American food and warm atmosphere. Today I had to make the drive solo for a family emergency and it was a very comforting place to be eating by myself in a somewhat sombre moment. As far as food goes, I often order the chicken flautas or the ground beef chimichanga, which is a filling portion size without making you feel like overeating. Today I tried the shredded beef enchiladas, which were recommended by the server. Both the red and green enchilada sauce were great and the beef was very flavorful. Thank you, Chihuahua's, for always making out of towners feel welcome!

They also have a lunch menu too, but I was focused on trying their chicken fried steak breakfast bc everywhere else has the deep fried hockey puck version. Garden Cafe's version was freshly breaded (I think, the flaky coating reminded me of panko - katsu vibes). I asked for the gravy on the side, so I could the breaded cube steak crunchy. The eggs and potatoes were also delicious. Marble rye toast was also an unexpected treat. Hubby's smash burger was good too.

It's a good stopping point as there's not many other towns out here on the 80 with better food choices. Battle Mountain has great gas prices, but not as much for food. We're seated just fine and just water to drink at this point in the day with a lot of driving ahead. I got the chicken fried steak and my friend got an omelet served with hashbrowns. Two coffees as well, were kept refilled just fine. All the food was good, normal coffee shop quality. Service was friendly as well, I'd stop here again passing thru on the 80.

    Last night after moving and working on a new place in battle Mountain, my family and I decided to…read morego to the owl club for dinner. Being able to seat yourself is nice, because then you don't have to wait on someone to seat you, and our drink order was immediately taken. After yapping for a while, we ordered two Open Faced Turkey Sandwiches w/ Mashed Potatoes & Gravy, a French Dip w/ Onion rings and a Half Rack of Ribs with Loaded Mashed Potatoes. Our food arrived relatively quickly actually, but unfortunately, it wasn't very warm. The mashed potatoes on both turkey dinners were cold, and had to be sent back to be warmed up (which I'm pretty sure they just did it in the microwave.) My mashed potatoes with my ribs were also cold, but I ate them anyways because I didn't want to have to send every plate back. I felt bad for them. The beef on the French dip looked dry and kind of old, but the onion rings were amazing. The ribs were amazing, falling off the bone tender and super flavorful. It really is unfortunate that everybody's mashed potatoes were cold. Once they were kind of heated up, everything was pretty good though. The waitresses were all super nice even after we had to send food back, so I'm glad they at least had good attitudes and weren't mean to us afterwards. One unique thing I think is really cool about this place is they have a salad bar that is included in some of the dinners! Although it was not included in my rib dinner, so I didn't go and look at it. The restaurant itself was quiet with just the faint sound of casino machines in the background, and a few rowdy guys who showed up in big trucks and were yelling at each other through the windows. All in all, it wasn't too bad and I would probably try it again, but they really do need to heat up those mashed potatoes better.

    Hiiiii my little festerlings! It's your favorite BK ambassador back for another cross country…read moreBurger King review! I'll be honest, I was kind of second-guessing this place when the door to the lobby was locked, and there's a sign on the window saying that they were short staffed and it was drive-thru only. I was on foot. A lot of drive-thrus won't serve people on foot, through the drive-thru, but this place did! I don't know why there's so many bad reviews about this place. I mean come on, it's fast food. You're not really doing a service to a community complaining about a $5 meal. Anyways I digress. There's a car in front of me, they got their food in two or three minutes. I walked up to the drive-thru and a nice kid there asked me if he could help me. I told him "sorry, I forgot my car at home" and he sat there for a second and kind of chuckled then I told him about usually not getting served in the Drive-Thru. He told me "yeah, I'm not going to NOT serve somebody their food, if they don't have a car! Our door is locked because we're short-staffed." What a guy! That tells me right there, that he values his job, and customers that come through. Good on him! My food was actually ready right when I got to the window which was nice. I ordered a double Whopper low carb, heavy all, and got exactly what I was expecting. Great job sir, and the rest of the staff in the back. This Burger King is actually really good.
