Stoby's Restaurant

Locally owned & operated

Stopped for breakfast here before heading up scenic 7 for the drive north…read more Stoby's was on the way and seemed a good choice. Right now as long as you're coming from the west you can drive directly to the restaurant before the road is closed for construction (7/2026). We split a 2 egg with bacon breakfast and enjoyed it immensely. The house strawberry jam was really good. The hash browns were perfectly prepared if a bit greasy. The eggs ordered over medium were just a bit overcooked but we wanted to be sure the whites were fully done. My wife especially liked the cure on the bacon. Our server was prompt, friendly and attentive. She did a great job. It was interesting seeing how the original restaurant was converted rail cars and later expanded into what they have today. We heartily recommend Stoby's if you're ever in the area.

If you are hungry don't get caught on the "wrong side of the tracks."…read more Stoby's is a railroad themed diner that sits adjacent to and across the tracks from the old Russellville train depot. There is some needed street and bridge improvements happening right now in the area, so navigation to Stoby's may not match your GPS recommendations. By the way, the old Russellville train depot is a museum that might be worth a visit after breakfast. Outside around back at Stoby's, you will notice a couple of Pullman cars that are actually part of the restaurant that you can dine in. The Pullmans are likely set up to handle groups. See the pictures from the outside and inside. The restaurant has a model railroad track that winds its way throughout the dining area. It was not running today. I suspect as a result of some type of Railroad Labor Union dispute. Mostly booths in the main dining area. Overall, it is a big restaurant. We were seated promptly and with menus; the drink orders processing while we studied the menu. The restaurant has daily specials, but we weren't railroaded into those options. The very nice waitress gave us plenty of time to study the menu and make a selection of our choice. My wife went for the Taco Salad; this ain't no Mexican joint but that's what she wanted. This is a southern food diner. The taco salad was similar to a school cafeteria, lunch taco salad. All the ingredients were fresh; the meat well was seasoned. The sauce came from a bottle. No, this ain't a Mexican restaurant. My wife liked the salad though. My meal was tasty and about as southern as it could get. Good cream gravy over a crunchy fried chicken breast, a cup of mashed potatoes with more cream gravy, and green beans with bacon. A slice of buttered Texas toast on the side to wipe the plate clean. No derailment at our table. It was a good meal with friendly service. Our ticket said Melissa was the conductor. Be sure to check the pie case up front!

Another time from doordash the drink was missing which could've been the drivers fault but either way it was this store. Most recently an employee asked my name for the order and looked down at the bag with my name on it and walked away, I was already waiting 5 minutes to just tell her the name then waited another 5 minutes to talk to the next worker and she handed me that bag, all I got was fries and they were extremely cold. Most times I go there i'm missing my sauces or something is messed up either way i'm going to continue to shop but I wish these small factors could be fixed, have a good day everyone!

Just passing thru about 1:30pm when we happened upon this place. The young lady at the counter was very nice and courteous. Ordered burgers and their special bacon ranch cheese fries with grilled onions. . Food arrived quickly. Everything was fresh and hot. The bun was toasted and all exactly as we ordered. Also their drinks are served over shaved ice which is a big plus. The special was awesome. The place is clean as is the restrooms. I would highly recommend this place. read more

My guy and I simply love this place. He always gets the mushroom Swiss burger, which I love as well, but I am working my way through the entire menu. I order something different every time we're there, and so far no regrets. The food, the staff, and timeliness of service is above and beyond expectations. read more

Sure they have a lot of traditional Mexican dishes, but I think when most Americans think Mexican food they are use to Tex Mex. Once you know what to order here it definitely becomes a favorite. The service is always prompt and everyone seems to pitch in.

If you like spicy salsa make sure to order the Toro's, and another sauce that's not on the menu is the green enchilada sauce; trust me get that especially if you like a creamy avocado sauce!

I actually miss these old places where you can throw the shells on the floor! Our server was very friendly and accommodating. I only had one complaint and it was the corn; very mushy so my server traded it for the mac and cheese with no questions. My steak seemed a little thin, but had great flavor. My wife's seemed to have about two ounces of fat on hers. My main complaint about that is they should be trimming more fat off these steaks. All in all okay experience, would probably come back.

Well we stepped out of the box, and went to the place that always seems dead. From the outside it's a little ominous, but once inside it's a pretty typical Mexican restaurant. Good size place with decorated booths, and tables. Our waitress while polite; seemed a little less than friendly. Don't get me wrong she fulfilled all our needs, she definitely put off the vibe of "I'm here for the check." That was literally the only issue I had; well that and the salsa wasn't great. As for the food; my burrito was perfectly seasoned, and my wife's chimichanga was as well. Both smothered in cheese, and both meats "chicken and beef" were tasty and moist. My child's chicken nuggets were actually hand made and hand breaded!!! The queso was literally some of the best I ever had, and my burrito was top 3!
