Well, where do I start?!! food steak sandwich like everybody's saying fantastic especially with garlic they put on there just melts in your mouth. Has a small town diner field yet has a full bar off on one room by itself. Staff is absolutely wonderful. Treat you like family. Oh I forgot the bread pudding. Oh boy was it delicious drizzled with this sugary buttery sauce that makes you drool with happiness if you're in the area, even if you're driving a semi, you can park next-door at the Sinclair. It's across from the museum here in Elko Nevada thank you for absolutely wonderful experience.

This is not a fancy restaurant. Keep your hat on if you want. It's home cooking though at its best with more than you can eat. With a dinner order, you'll get sourdough bread and very tasty vegetable soup. Then a salad with garlic dressing, then green beans, rice, a potato dish (more to come on that), spaghetti (for real, but it wasn't that good) plus whatever you ordered. We ordered 2 basque style pork chops plus some crab stuffed mushrooms. The pork chops were so good, flavorful breading and juicy meat. The mushrooms were good too. The highlight for me though was the Ana potato. The sauce was delicious and the potato was cooked perfectly. Our server was great.

This was our first time having Basque food, and we didn't realize how much food there would be! The bean soup and Ana potatoes were yummy. The rest of the sides were just okay though. But the mains were really good! The pork chop and the lamb chops were cooked perfectly, which was especially tasty covered in garlic. Overall, it was a fun experience but the sides could be better.

Gonna heap some praise on this ol joint. Went in for an early supper tonight. My daughter had prime rib and I had the chicken fried steak off the senior menu. Awesome service, incredible food and we waddled out. This place is the unsung hero of basque style restaurants in Elko. It's our favorite. Great value, incredibly nice people and stellar food

Toki Ona's is a very well known Basque restaurant in Elko with a very good reputation. In my opinion, a good Basque restaurant serves there food family style and that is exactly what you get here. So be prepared to eat or take food home. I ordered a Picon (Basque cockta) and the salmon. The Picon was very good and the first serving was a very nice bean soup. The second serving was an already tossed salad that was good. Then came the two big pieces of perfectly cook salmon along with, rice, pasta, green beans and the traditional plate of French fries. The salmon was very good, fries were a bit limp and the other three dishes were good but plain. I will definitely be back to give them another try and recommend you give them a try.

Stepping into Toki Ona, I felt like I had wandered into an age-old Basque boarding house, where every guest is treated like family and every plate is prepared with the kind of care that speaks to tradition. For our first visit, my husband dove into a dish that could've fed a whole cuadrilla: tender pork chops paired with a colorful spread of pasta salad, rice with peas, carrots, and corn, and a generous helping of green beans that would make any amuma (grandmother) proud. As a bariatric vegetarian, I was more limited in my options but still found warmth in the classic comfort of a grilled cheese and the cozy companion that was the Ana potato--fluffy, savory, and soul-soothing. Before we even got to the main course, we were welcomed with fresh-baked Basque bread (a hug in loaf form) and a zesty salad topped with a dressing that whispered garlic, embraced mayo, and kissed olive oil. We passed on dessert this time--only because our bellies waved the white flag--but I've already got my eyes set on the tiramisu for our next round. If the starters are any indication, dessert will be just as soul-satisfying. In true Basque spirit, the portions are generous, the flavors comforting, and the hospitality unassuming yet warm. Toki Ona may translate to "the good place," but I'd add "the right place"--especially when you're hungry for something real.

Four of us came to Toki Ona for dinner for the first time recently. We all agreed that Toki Ona is indeed a good place. We arrived early and seating was not a problem. By 6 pm, nearly every table was taken and a group of 11 had come in. My husband and I shared a main, the cod. The split plate charge was $13.95. A good deal for all the sides. Once seated and drink orders taken, soup arrived on the table quickly. Beef barley. This was no watery broth. It was a hearty soup with plenty of beef and barley. It had deep flavor, body, and black pepper zing. We'd be glad to have thst for dinner alone. The bread was also really good. The salad, green beans, sphagetti, and rice was fine. Not particularly outstanding, but not bad. The other surprise was the potate choice. Toki Ona gives you a choice of fries, baked potato, or Ana potatoe. The Ana potatoe is much like a scslloped potato, but Toki ona does it one better. They slice a potatoe and put it back together and cook it in butter and seasonings. It is exceptionally good looking and delicious. I recommend it highly. For the main I shared the cod with my husband. When asked how I'd like it, I replied medium. I guess it was the spicing level. The cod was cooked well and tasted a bit like it was blackened. Service was really good. The busy wait staff checked on us even as the dining room filled up with patrons. All in all, we really enjoyed our dinner here and would come back in a heart beat.

First time visiting Toki Ona and was pleasantly surprised!! We visited during Cowboy Poetry and I have to say, the food was good and service was surprisingly fast!! Three of us came in and were sat immediately, there was no wait which was awesome. We ordered two Eggs Benedict breakfasts, two bowls of Chicken Noodle Soup, and a BLT with fries and a house side salad. First of all, the soup was so good. The noodles seemed homemade, while the broth was flavorful and just what we needed on a cold day. The house side salad was a classic basque salad with that creamy garlicky dressing basque salads are known for. My son's BLT with Avocado was big with fresh veggies. My son said he wished the fries were crispier and not as limp, but had great flavor. The Eggs Benedict was yummy and the hollandaise had good flavor, however, the yolks of my eggs were definitely overcooked and therefore I didn't get that yummy runny yolk experience you love with Benedict. And the hashbrowns could have been more crispy. However the English muffins were soooo good. All in all the food was really delicious and the lunch menu has a lot of variety. I can't wait to go back and try a Philly cheesesteak... but I might have to bring my own whiz!

The restaurant feels old times yet wet clean and well maintained. They serve their food family style and the waitress attending the tables are very friendly. We had lamb chops pork chops and stuffed shrimp with rice pasta beans salad fries. It was a lot of food. I really enjoyed the shrimp but the rest were just meh.

We came here the Sunday before Memorial Day. They were really busy, but we were still seated and got our drinks very quickly. It seems like we had two servers the whole time, which was a little odd but kept us attended to regularly. The food was pretty good. Our table got biscuits and gravy, eggs Benedict, the garden omelette, and an egg combo with bacon, hash browns, and sourdough. Everyone enjoyed the food and plates were cleaned! The atmosphere was comfortable, and it had a diner feel. It's not the absolute best breakfast in Elko, but it was definitely good, and we'd come back.
