We stopped here for gas and some snacks and they have a huge variety of food and drinks and even some healthy items and their gas was a great price I think it was 4.38 a gallon. The two ladies who worked inside were helpful and friendly and it's always nice to walk into a store when you're definitely not a local but people treat you with a good attitude and are sincerely helpful and friendly My description of the photo is too long so I put it here instead : The building on the left is the main store and outside to the right are a handful of fuel pumps. If for any reason you needed it, there is also a pay phone right behind those fuel pumps, but I know most people have a cell phone by now we almost wanted to try to pay phone just to see if it still works because it's pretty classic to have a pay phone out there!! What's also nice about this place is it has a lot of parking and also accessible parking , and to the left of the main building, not captured in this picture , is also some kind of outdoor seating like perhaps a picnic table or 2, and then down the hill right behind the fuel pumps is the La Jolla Indian campgrounds read more

Great gas prices near Mt Palomar from the LA Jolla Nation. Convenience store with a lot of choices and great service

Amazing menu and tasty delights for all ages and appetites. Friendly staff serving food beer and wine!

Great staff and good prices on gas too. The Grill right next door had some killer good and their specialty drinks are off the hook good

Visited 7/24/2019 Wow This new little Indian Casino is a great way to have a little fun after getting some of the best priced gas around. There is a great little convenience store attached to the casino. The people working in the casino we're very friendly and informative. All the slot machines were brand new and fun to play. I even hit a few bonuses which always help you play a lot longer. All in all this is a great one stop shop. Gas, Snacks and Drinks, and Slot Machine Play. Give it a try. read more

We enjoyed stopping by La Jolla Indian Trading post on our way to Lake Henshaw. LJITP feels like 7-Eleven, only rustic themed with very nice and friendly staff. I would love to see local memorabilias the next time we visit. read more

When we travel to Ocotillo Wells for some off-road adventure, we always plan a stop at LJ Indian Trading Post. When you need to fill up several vehicles and get 60+ gallons of fuel, this place saves us $40 - $60 with the cheapest gas and diesel around. They also have $4 firewood bundles ($2 less than most places) and a really good hot deli (more like a mini fast food place). They also know a lot of their customers have RV's and big motorhomes towing other vehicles or trailers and they have a huge parking lot so it's easy to pull through without any hassle. We had a recent incident where their credit card machines were down so it was cash only. And another time one of their gas pumps was not working so the line with the big RV coaches and trailers made it a little more difficult to get in. We ended up blocking the entrance. If they have those issues in the future, I'd suggest they have an employee directing traffic to the working pumps to ease the frustration and traffic jam. It was difficult to pull in and out when some pumps are down. Aside from the cheap gas, they have all the other items you'd typically find at a convenience store but for a little less than if you visit a store off the reservation. I'm fairly sure that the gas and items are less expensive here since they are exempt from having to charge certain taxes on a reservation. It's fairly easy to get in and out and they have plenty of parking to pull over after filling up if you need to grab a bite from their deli. They also have two gender-neutral restrooms that are cleaned regularly and actually have soap and paper towels. It's worth the stop. read more

So you forgot to fill up before setting out to drive through the countryside. Bam, there goes your fuel warning light. What to do, what to do.. Well if you survive the gauntlet of crotch rockets racing around these back roads you'll find yourself on the La Jolla band of Indian's trading post and gas station. Its a gas station. Not sure why someone posted picks of dudes drinking. If you pass Palomar mountain south grade you'll eventually run into this place. Not much here except expensive gas. - No gas on Palomar mountain. read more

La Jolla 76 Roadside Grill... A hidden delicious gem inside the gas station. I have been several times because the Gas prices are great & the drive is beautiful but what one might miss is the grill. I haven't been disappointed in the foods I have had. In the mornings you can catch the delicious smells of breakfast being made & in the afternoon the delicious smells of burgers with tots. For breakfast I have enjoyed biscuits & gravy & a croissant sausage breakfast sandwich. For lunch I have enjoyed The Blue Cheese Burger & Western Burger (I can't decide which was my favorite burger between the two). Now for the pizza. My favorite is the BBQ chicken pizza, yum. I have tried 4 of the different pizzas but by far bbq chicken just takes it for the win. Now the food may take some time after ordering but they make it fresh & take gas station food to a whole new level. Weekends are definitely busy but that's a given with weekend cruisers, campers from the La Jolla Indian Campground & Zoom Zipline zipliners. This hidden gem of a grill is a must try read more

So consider this. They claim to be a Casino, a Restaurant, and a gas station. The casino has been closed for a year, and the restaurant is closed down so all it is a gas station. We went out of our way to go there and all we could do is get gas. PLUS the gas is more expensive than it is in San Diego. read more

SO inexpensive and very clean. Gas station open 24 hours during COVID which allowed us to gas up before our trip to the desert.

I stopped here on my way home from the desert to get gas for my truck. The credit card machine at the pump was broken so I went inside and had them put $50 on pump #1. About an hour later there was an additional fraudulent charge for $300. Yes the cashier kept my information and tried to steal my money. Absolutely unacceptable to have thieves working in any business. I have tried calling several times to report this to managment or the business owner. No answer at all. Beware of this place... I hate thieves!!! read more

I experienced this as a super convenience store/gas station. We'll stocked and really friendly staff. Very clean and organized. Came for some hot coffee initially, but then realized they actually have kitchen and great food options I have yet to try. I look forward to trying a breakfast burrito here if/when I'm in the area again. Thanks again for the hospitality shown from this business! read more

This is probably my favorite gas station around. The gas is inexpensive, and the pumps are open 24/7. The staff inside the convenience store are friendly. The prices inside the store are also reasonable, worth my Sunday drive. read more

Love the staff very friendly, and helpful bathrooms very clean, have all last min thing you need at a good price !

This place is a real gem. It's close and near Pauma casino. The rules R real relaxed and u will find all the basic amenities. The river is a blast and a real treat. It is quite long and the kids will have tons of fun tubing or swimming down. Just know that spacing is not assigned. It's first come first served. Also it gets very impacted so your privacy is pretty much non existent until it gets dark. Try to get there early for a real good spot by the river. But if not u can still spot a good place to put up a tent. read more

Best place to stop and fill up your tank. grab a bite to eat and soon you'll be able to playing state of the art slot machines.#Longfeather#Luiseno indians read more

High gas prices, unclean facility, and worst of all a terribly rude employee here who banged on the bathroom door and swore at my wife and I while we quietly, politely used their restroom (his gripe was that it was two of us in there at the same time). I wanted to fill up there, needing gas very badly; after that bad experience, we decided we'd rather risk it than give any money to this guy. Only stop here if you absolutely must, but otherwise, avoid at all costs. read more

The people that work here are the best! They also have very good gas prices. We stop here every time we travel from Vista CA where we live to anything in that direction! read more
