    Truly a 5 star diner! We were headed back to town from Desert Hot Springs and I had eaten here at Pi Stop before and wanted to introduce my girlfriend to it since she loves Diners so much. First of all, there is a reason why everyone says Lola is an awesome waitress - it's because it's true! I was trying to decide between the pastrami burger ($16.99) and the chicken pot pie (also $16.99) and without batting an eye she said if you're hungry go with the pastrami burger. I then wanted to test the waters so I said "Okay, how about if we add the prime rib ($27.99) into the mix?" And she said prime rib is the best. Ultimately I wasn't hungry enough for a prime rib meal so went with the pastrami burger which is a smashburger patty with pile of pastrami, grilled onions, Swiss cheese, lettuce, tomato's & 1000 island served with choice of fries, onion rings, tots or side salad - and I got tots of course which were just as they should be - fantastic! (Side note: Which ever side you get, be sure to get ranch dressing - it's awesome!) The burger was fantastic. It comes cooked led-well and I like mine medium which they will do by request. Girlfriend got the veggie skillet ($18.99) with bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, broccoli, avocado, spinach, home style potatoes & queso blanco - served with 3 eggs and any style toast but she decided to try peanut butter pancakes ($4 upcharge) and her whole meal was absolutely delicious! Also if you grab a Moromgo players card you get 10% off.

    The burger meat was a flavorless as was the cheesesteak; visually it looked ok but probably best to go outside and get an in n out burger instead for half the price and twice the flavor. Server did a good job with delivery to table.

    Dave had the country fried steak (or was it Chicken fried?). It was delicious and HUGE! So huge, in fact, he had it for 2 meals. I had the veggie scramble with eggs over medium. I cannot tell you how great it was. Perfect in every way. Large portions. Great potatoes. Great veggies. Perfectly cooked eggs. Our server was Lola and she was there with coffee and there with a smile. When we go back, we will be looking for her. She was perfect!! Cute little diner inside the smaller casino. Looking for great food, fair prices and large portions? Stop in.

    On the way home from Palms Springs sometimes you get a little hungry and want to hit a "PitStop". Located inside the old Casino Morongo, PitStop Diner has been serving customers for years. Today my family and I got to stop and enjoy some of the fried goodness on their menu but thats not all they have. Everything we ordered came put fresh and warm. Everything warm, fresh, and crispy. The perfect crunchy exterior to a warm delicious soft inner fries. They made sure the food was too your liking. The service was great, the waitress made sure to check on you every so often to make sure everything was okay. I hope to the next person who sees this review has a much as a great experience as I did. Thank you PitStop for the warm and scrumptious meal.

    Is this one of Americas great Diners???? Put on the brakes because it is not. But it is a good Casino diner! Pit Stop services the small older side of Morongo Casino in Cabazon. The side with bowling bingo ad Poker. The menu is big and the do offer daily specials including a daily $27 Prime Rib dinner. I had the Frisco burger and that was a great patty melt with a expertly executed Parmesan crust on sour dough bread. The pre-fab coated and seasoned fries were very good, hot, crisp and just minutes out of the freezer. Im not complaining but my friends were, they didnt like this style of French fry and thought they tasted fishy. The Ice-cold Onion rings were immediately sent back to the kitchen and fresh hot order arrived in about 15 minutes. Service was good and yes we would eat here again on our next visit to Morongo bingo, because it's the only option.

    We always come to this spot because not only is it delicious it's always clean. Today we had the most lovely server her name was Deborah. She was so sweet and called you baby or hunny which had that hometown feeling. She made sure all of our food was correct and hot. She made sure we had sauces for all the different foods. She was so nice and attentive as well. Hope she stays for a while!! Food was hot and fresh. Got the platter which was a little bit of it all chicken tenders, mozzarella sticks, onion rings, and French fries. Next time I want to try the zucchini table next to us got it and it looked and smelled delicious. Definitely one of the best casino diners I've been too.

    Perfectly clean catfish,  fried to perfection,  fries to die for and fresh crispy coleslaw

    This is easy off and on the 10. If you're hungry, don't pass this up. Easy parking too! You'll pull up to the old Morongo Casino but it's not what you think... You don't have to be a gambler to make this great pit stop! Or go ahead and gamble in this small, clean and friendly casino. The Pit Stop diner is straight ahead as you come in the door. Enjoy sweet, attentive service by "Lola", in her sparkling clean 50s diner, Pick your spot and get ready to enjoy some great food. Im a catfish aficionado, on my way to Texas for the real thing and found it right here! Texas style hush puppies, best crispy fries you've ever had, excellent fresh coleslaw, and... fried catfish! The catfish has a light crispy, crunchy cornmeal breading, fried to perfection, with high quality "clean" tender catfish. "Clean" means it doesn't taste like a bottom dweller, which it is! Hubby loved his "Big Rig" $10 breakfast with eggs, bacon, hashbrowns and pancakes. Even the coffee was above board, fresh and rich coffee flavor. See you soon Lola, on our way back!

Given the value of this item, that response is not sufficient. A property at this level should have a clear, documented lost-and-found process with accountability, rather than relying on informal follow-up. We paid over $600 for a one-night stay. The level of urgency and communication so far does not reflect the seriousness of the situation. I am requesting that management conduct a formal review, including verification with housekeeping, review of lost-and-found records, and any applicable security procedures, and provide a direct, documented follow-up.

We were in the mood for some Japanese food and this place popped up so we headed on over! The street looked completely abandoned so it was a little weird. We luckily found parking right up front and were greeted by the lady bartender. She was chatting with a few guys at the bar but otherwise the place was empty for a Saturday night, maybe because it was still during the holidays. The music was loud but played some great classic r&b and hip hop songs. We walked to sit at the high tables at the back and Leslie, the bartender, came over to bring us water and menus. We ordered some small stuff, house dumplings and their crunchy roll to share. I guess I didn't read it properly but didn't expect the roll to be soy paper which wasn't a big deal at all! The crunchy tempura bits on the top were yummy and overall a solid roll but could barely finish it. The gyoza were great though! They had some game shows playing on the tvs like ninja warrior and all that. Not a bad spot and probably better for drinks rather than food.

My friend ordered the matcha latte, and that was just as disappointing. The matcha was extremely watered down and had very little flavor. To make things worse, the cashier was rude and had a standoffish attitude, which made the experience even less enjoyable. The AC also wasn't working, so it was uncomfortable inside. Overall, this place is way overhyped. The interior is cute, but the drinks and customer service were a huge letdown. Definitely not worth the money or the hype.

It's a perfect place for a date or a night out with friends or family. The focal point of the main dining room is the bar, which faces the restaurant's entrance. Meticulously designed with a nostalgic feel, the bar features blonde wood shelves holding hundreds of vinyl records, carefully curated design objects, and a DJ booth neatly tucked into a corner next to the bar. The beer taps are elegantly minimalist, and every detail in the bar--for example, the old-fashioned glass syrup bottles--seems planned to give a nod to history (specifically the late 19th century, when Redlands was founded). The main dining room offers plenty of comfortable seating choices, including a long bar along the center of the room. The patio is spacious and well kept. All of the spaces inside and out have music piped in from the bar. There are two restrooms just off the patio, and these are well-maintained. On busy nights, patrons can enjoy a drink in a standing bar area just off the patio. I love that the Overland provides a choice of setting depending on the kind of night you're planning. A romantic date? Get a reservation to sit inside, and it feels intimate. Just hanging out? The bar is fun as the mixologists make excellent drinks and friendly conversation. Sitting at the bar after 7 PM, you can watch the DJs spin the platters. If you have a larger group or just like to eat alfresco, the patio is perfect. The menu offers a really nice variety of drinks, including the pricier craft cocktails, more classic, moderately priced beverages, nonalcoholic drinks, and all sorts of beer and wine. The food menu is solid, with plenty of appetizers, salads, entrées, and a dessert. The real star is the tacos! These are very moderately priced at seven dollars apiece, and all three varieties are delicious! There is a potato taco, a beef taco, and pork chili Verde taco. I highly recommend these! The green salsa they provide is extremely mild, but they do have a variety of hot sauces on hand. It's worth mentioning that even a humble plate of tacos is served on nice ceramic dishes, along with good flatware and napkins.The espresso martini cheesecake is creamy and delicious, and the portion is really generous. The staff seem to enjoy working at the Overland. The servers work hard to make sure your order is to your liking, and food comes out pretty fast. There's a good sense of teamwork among them. The staff is also accommodating about seating or any special requests. We've been there on a busy Friday night, and on a Sunday evening and late night. The Overland is always at least moderately busy, so reservations are strongly recommended. The city of Redlands should be very proud of this establishment. Go and have fun!
