The Drive In is a place I've been countless times. There's been ups and downs, but it seems as time…read moregoes on it's only getting worse and worse. Don't get me wrong-- the prices & the food is pretty good. But the second I have someone in customer service be disrespectful, crosses my line. One of the younger adult males who works there was very rude to me and my group of people and it was not necessary. Id like to believe he was having a hard day, and that's not his typical customer service.

The blonde headed guy was not at all nice and down right rude and a jerk. Will not got there again…read more Not only to us but to several customers that were there . Horrible serive without a smile .I give it a negative 10 stars.

Ordered the two most popular items on the menu, the brisket sandwich and the philly cheesesteak…read more Both sandwiches were really good, but the sides were definitely not a favorite (got the coleslaw and the mac). Would recommend trying it out. However not 5 stars because of the long wait time in the hot sun, and was bummed you can't get fries as a side /:

Once my "Greek Goddess" meal was burnt, the next time I placed an order online and was set to pic it up and my Oder was canceled because they closed early. Last night ( 9/21/26) my husband and I decided to try again and go eat there but I did call first to see if that was even an option. There was a definite language barrier. Once we got there, I had questions... that was a joke trying to get anyone to answer them. The young man I asked didn't seem to care about helping me. Then it appeared we had to use the Kiosk to order ( what are we Costco?) Finally a man who was cooking helped us and actually took our order. The food was good and this man was very helpful. After you eat you are expected to clean off your table.

We spent a couple of days on the John Day river, and the Rimrock Grill handled shuttling our car…read morefrom where we started. When we got to the grill, the post-river food was very tasty, and the owner was really cool. He provided some comic relief after 2 long days paddling.

Sure ain't much to look at in a little nowhere of a town but hey the pancakes were DELICIOUS so…read more.. lol. The building it's in is very confusing and does not suggest "food". It's kind of a big metal two-story industrial looking shack. You might even wonder if you're in the right spot, though there's a sign on the building that says "Rivers Edge Restaurant." The restaurant is upstairs; I recommend rounding the corner to park up at the lot above rather than below. There's a side entrance you'll use, go past the restrooms, round another corner to go past the kitchen, and then you'll finally find the counter. You can order to-go or be seated in the dining area (which is also where there are a few slot machines and a billiards table). The guy running the place is friendly and attentive; he refilled our drinks while we were there. There's a decent number of options on the menu, with some great affordable options. Overall a great experience and a good way to get some food in us to resume our road trip.
