    Dining room
    Britt C.

    The three stars are for the great customer service and how quick it is for when you are on the go. The $18 burrito was a rip off, It didn't come with a drink or side. The amount of grease from this burrito was unbelievable. I told my son, "Don't eat it!" I was worried it would mess him up for the night. They have many yummy items here, so I would stay away from the pastrami burrito. 06/29/25

    Rib Eye Steak & Eggs
    Tony D.

    This place may look like an old remodeled fast food place, but it's no joke. The food here is absolutely amazing. The prices are great and the service is fantastic! This ribeye steak & eggs is half the price. I've paid other places and tastes better. Congratulations to the owner and staff here for making this a great stop while charging our car.

    Crispy Chicken Sandwich
    James Y.

    A great stop for a quick bite while recharging or refilling gas. Prices are great and portions are generous. Highly recommend getting the DUI Chili Fries, it is enough for 2-3 people to share. The staff is also very friendly. They messed up my friends order but corrected it and still gave us the extra food that was placed on accident.

    We visited the Red Rock Canyon State Park on memorial weekend and we stayed at the area near highway 14 and CA-58, this restaurant is the only one that has everything we wanted, simple dinner after a long day driving and exploring. This restaurant is a self serve restaurant, you order and pickup your food and bust your own table. Quite convenient and quick. It serves breakfast all day and I wanted some pancakes and eggs. The works breakfast $14 has everything and huge portions. My wife had a works burger that she said it was the best one, and she only eats in-and-out LOL. The burger is big and really feed both of us with everything on it, even avocado. My breakfast plate has pancakes that so fluffy my wife ate them all. The hash brown was so good, I haven't had this for a long time. Sausages, ham, bacon cooked perfectly. Scrambled eggs is excellent too. The only thing we wished the batter was better is the onion rings, it's tastless although the onion is sweet. Regardless, It's amazing restaurant. We would definitely try again when we travel through here.

    Short stack of pancakes and a side of hash browns. I added the ketchup! Both very good...

    What a great spot! All the food I've tried over the years here has been pretty good. Hot and fresh. Pretty big menu selection and they have good milk shakes and root beer floats. Burgers are pretty big. I'd recommend the chicken and waffles here. Also the pancakes are fantastic! Service is usually pretty good. Friendly staff. Two bathrooms outside and easy parking. It can get busy here but the kitchen is pretty fast! Great place to stop before going out to camp at Jawbone / Mojave or before heading up to Bishop / Mammoth. Ambiance is very basic and chill. Hope you enjoy your meal!

    Mushroom Swiss burger with zucchini fries

    I was craving some steak and eggs one day and decided to try the rib eye steak here. I ordered it through DoorDash so it was kinda cold by the time I got it, but boy was it still delicious! I didn't expect it to taste that great! I was craving the steak again so my boyfriend and I came here to eat and I decided to try some chicken chilaquiles that was a special for that day. Pretty decent! Now the chili cheese pastrami fries is where it's at! My boyfriend has ordered them twice now and I always end up eating some of his plate! So good! The food comes out pretty fast too, even if it's busy!

    This place is a perfect stop on your way to mammoth! Tesla chargers are super close too! The employees are always so kind and the place itself is always clean & inviting. The zucchini fries with ranch are our go to! The burgers are delicious and the chicken strips are good!

    I have been trying this place for the last 2 years since i live in the neighborhood. I struggled to find something on the menu that was good. Co worker recommended the chicken salad and wahlah it was very tasty! Today our crew ordered and i got this it was delicious...until mid fork stab a living bug crawled right out of it! Final straw, Buyers beware is all i can tearfully say smh

    Chicken phlly sandwich
    Angela D.

    Great Lunch Spot with Clean Restrooms! Something for everyone; Burgers, Sandwiches, Salads, Mexican Food, and more. A little pricey but big portions. Over $5 to make it a meal with fries & drink and another $3.49 added if you want something other than fries. I had the chicken philly sandwich and fries it was delicious.

    Chicken Tostada Salad
    Angelina L.

    We've stopped by this place on long drives. A+ for convenience (there are chargers in the parking lot, food is quick, and bathrooms are available)! Service is great and staff are always nice; we like to call and order ahead. Food never disappoints! Tons of options and I've never had anything I didn't enjoy. The location itself is a little beat up inside, but hey! just shows that they're busy making good food for lots of people.

    Chicken and waffles
    Mary B.

    I look forward to stopping by this place each time we head towards 395 spots. There is a Tesla charging so it's a convenient spot to rest and eat if you need a charge. The restrooms are always clean. The food selection is great for everyone in the family. The service its always friendly and welcoming. If you have dogs with you, there is outside seating. My favorite is the waffle and chicken. I order extra each time so I can have it again for breakfast the following day.

I saw several individuals come into the place to only use the restroom. Although the sign on the door clearly states they are for patrons only. I now understand the need for that sign. My unsolicited advice to the owner would be to please replace those old toilets. I literally almost didn't eat my food when I saw them. They are the equivalent of old gas station toilets. Would eat here again. Only if Lea is working. Cooks, PLEASE change the oil in the fryer more often...

I had a page of Jack coupons and was ready for breakfast before the merge to quaint/majestic U.S. 395, the route that creates a conclusively calming cakewalk compared to I-5 & I-80's surprise lane closures, devil-may-care truckers, metro rush hours, etc. (think "Welcome to the Jungle"). Further, this turned out to be one of just two stops in an 8-1/2 hour journey. First thing I saw on pulling into a storefront parking space at about 8 a.m. was an employee cleaning the exterior window and door glass surfaces. Then, inside, another staffer was meticulously wiping down all dine-in furnishings. Morning is a great time to make a good impression. On both visits, the counter staff was welcoming and efficient, and the products (BOGO Breakfast Jacks this time) emerged faultlessly from the kitchen. Also, the restroom was in good shape, always a plus, but the location does require that you ask adjacent counter staff to buzz you in. The outdoor surroundings evoke the Bacharach-David standard, "Trains and Boats and Planes," absent the superfluous middle mode of travel--never cottoned to the notion of a watery death. The Mojave Air & Space Port boundary is a short drive to the northeast, and Union Pacific's tracks are right across the highway to the west. My kind of town, Mojave is.

I asked to speak to the general manager she claimed she was the manager (mind you managers DO NOT wear hats). This was deeply offensive, xenophobic, and completely inappropriate for anyone to say -- especially an employee claiming to be a manager. I've reported this to corporate and civil rights organizations. Avoid this location.
