(Our server was Jessica, super sweet!) it got SUPER busy after we walked in, but she always tended to us and asked if we needed anything while waiting, thank you Jessica! WHAT WE ATE: I had the ORTEGA CHICKEN Sandwich, I recommend (for chicken sandwich eaters) with a side salad, I love me a fresh garden salad! My husband had their regular cheeseburger but with bacon (forgot what it's called) fries were Excellent! Both were MUCH bigger than expected (Good thing, we left so full) haha We will be back for Shakes next time Thank you You for a 'Good Time'

Had a delicious breakfast with my husband. I had the special, chili verde omelet with country fried…read morepotatoes and peppers. He had a bacon and cheese omelet with crispy hash browns.

We dined here on a Sunday morning around 11-11:30AM. We waited about 20 minutes for a table but…read morethat was expected as we were informed when we got there. Although the food here was good, the atmosphere was chaotic. The floor staffing was not able to service the dining room and the delegation of duties appeared haphazard (two servers working the counter as well as part of the floor). We waited about 10 minutes and had to call over a server because no one had come to take the drink order. That server could have corrected this but instead said that we were not in her area and our waitress had broken a cup and cut herself. She could have been more gracious and taken our drink order. Our server came over a couple of minutes later and apologized, but she seemed overwhelmed. We received our coffee and later our food, but I asked for milk for my coffee on three occasions before any was brought to me. The food was good and was served fairly promptly but no refills on coffee were offered and when we asked for refills there our request was acknowledged but never fulfilled. When we went to the counter to pay our check, our server was unable to make change for a $52.08 bill from $62.08. This could be a good local place based on the food, but the service is such that I cannot recommend it.

I wish they had longer hours. That's the only complaint…read more I've been a couple times and it was exceptional both times. The potatoes were amazing, the biscuits were great, and the gravy was so good! There's a small indoor seating area that feels like a modern diner and they have plenty of tables under the pergola outside, where there's vines, birds, and flowers, which feels very relaxing.

Stopped by for the first time on a Monday morning and was pleasantly surprised by the vibe. The…read moreplace was about 80% occupied, which says a lot for that time of day, but it still felt chill and relaxed. The interior is modernized (not overdone), clean, and welcoming, with a nice quote on the wall that adds character. I ordered the breakfast burrito ($11). It's simple but very well seasoned (scrambled eggs, potatoes, and cheddar cheese). No meat, which I was craving, but the herbs and spices definitely carry the flavor. Not sure what they use, but it's tasty. Portion-wise, it's a solid medium-to-large burrito and comes split in half, so it could easily be shared. I've seen bigger burritos elsewhere, but this one is filling enough. That said, $11 feels a bit pricey for something so simple. I totally understand inflation, but I think adding a protein option like bacon, ham, or sausage would really elevate it and make the price feel more justified. Service was quick; about five minutes total and the cashier was very friendly. I mentioned it was my first time there and that I'm part of Yelp Elite. I kind of wish there had been a bit more engagement at that point, like suggesting a popular item or checking with the manager about anything for Yelpers. Not a dealbreaker at all, just a missed opportunity to go the extra mile. Overall, good food, chill environment, friendly service, and efficient turnaround.

I got egg whites and crisp bacon. I totally forgot to tell the server no powder sugar on my French toast and she saw me tried to dump it off. She did not hesitate to have the cooks. Remake me another set of French toast. Which I appreciate. she asked if I was diabetic and I told her Well I'm trying not to be. I really appreciate her going above and beyond and correcting it. That's a sign of a good waitress that is attentive to our customer needs. She had a big tip from me. My total breakfast was under $15. Ambience I got there early before eight so it was quiet on this cool morning . As I was wrapping up my breakfast more people started to come in about 9 AM. If you're in town and want breakfast, stop by and support the small business . Until next time, I will see you on Yelp .

While passing through Visalia we found this place. There aren't many places like this where we live…read moreso we thought we'd give it a try. Entered in to a very open and clean seating area. There is both indoor and outdoor seating options. Inside they are picnic table style with bench seating and long tables or counter seating near the windows. Outdoors was set up with table and chair patio style seating. Immediately greeted by a friendly employee and after we mentioned it was our first time there she gave us a thorough overview of how it works. One thing we really liked was the customer has the option to select their "signature" dogs or you can create your own using all the toppings they have available via a slip of paper. You just check the boxes of what you want on your all beef hot dog (1/4 lb.), a polish sausage or bratwurst. I discovered afterwards they also offer "mini" dogs, which I should have gotten because they are quite large and my eyes were bigger than my stomach after I ordered a hot dog and a homemade corndog. My daughter got a polish dog and a homemade cheese dog (like a corn dog but using cheese instead of a hot dog). I got tater tots as a side and my daughter the homemade potato chips. All the food was tasty and we'd get them all again, though as I mentioned above I'd probably go "mini" on one or both because together there was just too much food for me. If we go through Visalia again, we'll definitely return.
