    If you're swinging by the Panoche Inn, don't miss their cheeseburger--it's the talk of the town! This down-home spot in the Panoche Valley ain't just a place to eat; it's a real-deal community hangout with a welcoming vibe. Whether you're just passing through or need a spot to kick back, Panoche Inn is worth the stop.

    The best bar for miles! The owners Kim and Sam are like everyone's parents or aunts and uncles or brother and sister! They are the family that you've been looking for! All of the staff is fantastic and they have clean restrooms and amazing food if your just out for a leisurely ride. But please make this your destination, your Saturday or Sunday hangout. They are open 7 days a week. Come say hi to the family.

    Awesome pastrami sandwich, it's piled high with pastrami and very flavorful.. Epic biker bar with dollar bills hanging from the ceiling. It's in middle of nowhere which makes this place like an oasis in the desert. A lady at the bar was super friendly and nice.

    We were on a three day mc tour with friends from Santa Barbara Riders.We decided to explore Panoche Road. To our wonderful surprise Larry and his wife were celebrating their 14 th anniversary of owning the Panoche Inn by having a free customer hamburger and hotdog bbq with awesome beans and potatoes salad. Larry the owner came up to me to introduce himself as we parked our bikes and to invite us for a meal on him. Everyone there was very friendly. Larry's wife even gave us her recipe for her kosher pickles with her own kick. I invite anyone and everyone to make it to this special place. The road there from San Juan Bautista is a bit windy and a few pot holes. But a great ride! Ohhhh, did I say they have cold beer and a billiards table.....and Larry wife makes a heck of turkey sandwich. Thank you Larry and wife, Cesar and Brigitte Lugo on behalf of the SB Riders on this bike tour.

    My wife and I stopped in while we were at the hot springs and had a great time. The beer was cold and the burger was better than expected.

The music playing was loud mariachi type which is fine by me. I'll mention that my guy friend and I are as white as they come and I was nervous going to this establishment as it's obviously geared towards the Hispanic community. However, there were no problems and we all got along just fine. I mention the race thing because unless you've been living under a rock, there's always a divide between Hispanics and whites and whatever and a lot of the community assumes it's too dangerous to be downtown at night because of that fact. I was born and raised in Gilroy I know how it goes . However I refuse to let that keep anybody from relaxing and having a good time..it's ridiculous to hate for no reason. There were no problems we had fun. Thank goodness there is an establishment open til 2am on most nights. We've been there twice so far. Second time was more crowded and it was a good time, no fights and no super drunk people Bring quarters for pool, there's only 2 tables. People were nice enough to let us play instead of claiming a table for the night. I would give 5 stars if they had shuffleboard and more pool tables. Maybe open earlier also like 12 for those that want to spend a day off practicing their pool game.

    Wow. Incredible experience all around!…read more The meat is 10/10. I had the tri-tip sando and some ribs. You can taste the Santa Maria style smoke. Pictures will never do it justice. The tri-tip was so tender and juicy. I always drive through King City on the way to the bay from SLO. Very nice people and great environment. So happy we found this place! Highly recommend.

    A coworker and I had the opportunity to do lunch at this restaurant. For those who know King City…read moreit's a bit hidden but convenient hop off the 101 highway. The outside is ok though nothing special and the inside is quite airy. I noticed they have an additional room for seating. This was my first visit based on photos others had posted to Yelp. Their burgers and fries looked decadent. The fries however looked like way too much so I went with the Deluxe Smash Burger and it did not disappoint. I only did one patty and despite expecting it to be thinner than I might like it was not. The price is a bit higher than I expected but the overall meal was ine I didn't look back on with regret and I would probably do it again. The customer service was fine, though not table waited, You order at the cash register and then pick up the food there. The turn around on an order was good and the portion on the fries generous. I would note, one word of caution. Not sure what brand of Ketchup they use but it should be avoided or atleast taste tested before you douse your food in it. It didn't agree with me or my coworker. But on the other hand, the BBQ at the table was delicious. I feel like it might be made in house but it was the delivery system for both the burgers and fries. To management, keep it simple Heinz on the ketchup. Overall experience was good and will likely revisit again in the future.
