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.

Lobby

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.

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.

I love this place which is cool casual rustic Mexican vibe. The chips are fresh and warm (salsa is…read moreokay). The taco salad was very nice with excellent shredded breast of chicken and a fresh taco shell bowl - lettuce was like it was picked out of the garden and just freshly washed & served (very fresh lettuce, which is always a bonus)! Prices are reasonable and location and parking is super easy. Service was rough this visit: 35 + min for a taco salad (they were very busy inside, but the patio was not even at 1/3 capacity, so for those of us sitting on the patio we would have no idea that the inside was super busy). Clearly experienced waitress was apologetic about the long wait when finally serving my lunch, but having waitressed for many of my earlier years, I would've liked to have heard that there was going to be a long wait when I sat down (she said unexpected busy Labor Day weekend); I would've liked the option to have opted out, as I was traveling and was looking for a quick meal break (just my opinion, but it's far better to lay out timing expectations from the onset so people can decide if they have the time to wait [then to apologize for them after the fact, when people are already frustrated and wondering why the wait felt unreasonable]). Although I wasn't as thrilled with my service experience this trip, I will continue to visit and next time just ask the question about timing ;)

We heard good things about this place and were in the mood for Mexican food. They were busy when…read morewe arrived and we were sat at a skinny table for 2 in the middle of larger tables. I was kind of in the aisle and felt like I may be in the way of people and staff walking by, but it worked out ok. Despite it being busy, we were waited on quickly. They brought out chips and salsa to start while we reviewed the menu. I ordered the chicken with shrimp that came with rice, beans and tortillas. My husband got the chili verde chimichanga with rice and beans. The food was fresh and the plates were hot. I really enjoyed my meal and liked the flavors of the shrimp and chicken topped with cheese and fresh mushrooms. I must have been hungry because I cleaned the plate. The beans were good, and had a sweeter flavor like I like. The rice was cooked well and did not have any undercooked crunchy bits. I would surely return again when I'm in the area.

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. So I'll be making a call to my corporate rep to commend this place! ***DISCLAIMER*** This pure, uncut, honest review is federally protected under Federal Law by way of Bill #EO14149.
