    So good! Quiche, egg pockets, muffins, pizza, bagels, sandwiches. Love supporting them! Quick service.

    Good pizza. Friendly and fast service. Nothing better than grabbing a slice sitting outside and gazing at the mountains. I Borrego springs.

    It's a small shop but they have a large variety of foods and drinks here. We tried their pizza (sausage, pepperoni, and onion) and it was very, very good. Lots of toppings, good buttery crust, good flavor all around. I would say, just a tad more sauce would have put it over the top. We also tried some of their cookies which looked and tasted very homemade. There are very few restaurants in Borrego so it's nice to find ones that stand out. I would definitely return.

    We found ourselves in Borrego Springs once again a year later! We ordered the same Large Supreme Pizza. We were not disappointed. This was enough to feed the four of us. We had to wait maybe 20 minutes, but it was worth it! A large group with many small children came in after us, the restaurant put on a cartoon on Netflix for them. The people who work there are so nice. I hope to be back again in a year or so!

    Tasty Pizza but prices have doubled for the toppings.

The building also has a gift shop and bar. It is cozy throughout the building, specifically, a cabin feel. The staff at the counter were very helpful and patient. I ordered a kale salad with chicken. It was a hefty serving. I did ask for extra balsamic dressing at the time of my order and I'm glad I did since I had a lot of greens. Everything was fresh and the candied pecans added in were delicious and added a nice crunch to the salad. I ordered a side of sweet potato fries and they were perfecto! It was crunchy on the outside and soft in the inside. I enjoyed my lunch out on the patio deck facing north east. I had the view of the hills and got to watch people drive into or leave Borrego Springs. Some of the planks on the floors and side rails were starting to show their age or had been damaged. Overall, a great experience at the joint. I look forward to having another bite at the restaurant when I camp here again in 2025.

We were not disappointed at all. Upon arriving, there was a musician playing, and they did seat us off to the right so we could not see but could hear still. There is outdoor and indoor seating, but at the time we came it appeared that the outdoor was reserved for an event. We happily sat inside! Having met Jeremy's parents earlier in the day who also recommended his restaurant, and they were just lovely, we had hoped to possibly meet Jeremy too. I wanted to try everything, but we opt on getting a few dishes to share. Our son ordered the filet mignon and they were able to substitute mashed potatoes for fries. Amazing!! The mac & brisket appetizer appeared to be the highlight and specialty and we just had to order it. Every bite was cheeesy and delicious with the brisket very moist. We couldn't go without ordering the Brussels sprouts and it had a twist with ponzu sauce and pineapple. Definitely a different take and I thoroughly enjoyed the taste. Every bite was foodgasmic and I highly recommend!!! I knew coming here that some Yelpers have experienced wavering in quality, so glad we did not experience that at all. As of the date that we came, we understood that the restaurant had been listed for sale, not sure if Jeremy sold it yet or not. I hope not, we plan on coming back this summer!

My daughter's meal was fish and chips and not that great. The prices are high. If you wanna get a steak, it will be $60, thank you. The chairs are hard and it's kind of like a regular restaurant. Feel not the luxurious feel that it was many years ago. Just too pricey for an average restaurant

Could hear many different birds and the church bell. We received a huge surprise when some angel who blessed us with paying for our dinner. Wow, what a special surprise!!! We do not know who it was, but what sweet act of kindness. We will certainly be paying it forward. Thank you to whoever you are and may God bless you immensely!!!

We will surely be back again and again when visiting the lovely town. :)
