5/5 Love this old school diner…read more Ambiance: This restaurant is clean. It can get rather busy on eh weekends but we have never waited more than 10 minutes. Service: All staff members are sweet and attentive. They Al's ways ask if we've dined with them before. (They ask this so they can recommend some dishes if it's your first time) Food: Everything we have gotten here has truly been great. No fuss or frills, just really nice diner food done the right way. Our favorite breakfast items are the country fried steak and eggs, and the linguica and eggs. Our favorite sandwiches are the club on toasted wheat, tuna sandwhich (that we get as a melt on toasted rye for $1 more), and the Philly cheese steak. We love to get the garlic fries. The crinkle cut fries are so crispy yet fluffy on the inside, and seasoned to perfection. Overall the portions are generous, delicious, and reasonably priced.

Solid restaurant. My wife and I went twice this week to have breakfast. Really enjoyed our meals…read more Service was great. Place is extremely clean. Very good atmosphere. You can see that the owners have their friends there and there is great banter and friendship. The mom is there with a huge smile and greeting. Just a friendly, happy place. They have very good iced tea and coffee. I like my hash browns really crispy and they delivered. Oh, and we can place Hot Spot keno while we enjoy our food, courtesy of the California Lottery. An added perk was they had college football on the big screen!

The server was a very nice blonde gal I forgot her name but we only saw her once throughout our dinner, the food did take a bit of time to come out but it's okay because we were a lot of people.

I would maybeeee go again but I've had better service at other packed and busy establishments like Loza, Memos, and black bear

We were visiting from out of town and decided to stop by because of the excellent reviews this place had received. When we first walked in, one of the employees asked what I wanted. I explained that I was waiting for my husband before ordering. She responded by saying, "Oh well, they're waiting," referring to the customers behind me. I immediately replied, "That's fine, go ahead!" so the other customers could order first, but her reaction afterward felt dismissive and somewhat annoyed. We later placed and paid for our order. Shortly after, my husband decided he wanted a Biscoff latte instead, so we politely asked if the drink could be changed. Another employee kindly stepped in and said she could do it, which we appreciated. I specifically asked for the drink to be changed to an iced Biscoff latte. Unfortunately, when the drinks came out, mine was still hot instead of iced. I went back up respectfully and let them know there had been a mix-up. Both employees looked at each other and chuckled in what came across as annoyance. I even apologized for the inconvenience, but the first employee responded by saying, "We are just too busy." I completely understand that working in customer service can be overwhelming, and I always try to be patient and understanding. However, at the time there were only a couple of seated customers and just the two of us waiting for our drinks, so the comment felt unnecessary. By that point, the interaction from the moment we walked in had already made the experience feel uncomfortable. We ended up grabbing our drinks and leaving disappointed. I usually enjoy leaving positive reviews, especially for small businesses, so it was unfortunate because we came in excited after reading such wonderful things about this place.

Great spot in Turlock!…read more I visited for the first time with my mom, Fiance, and his mom. We decided to eat brunch after an appointment at sunrise bakery next door. The restaurant had a large menu and great staff that made our experience enjoyable. Everyone there seemed to really be enjoying themselves which made the ambiance quite lovely. I recommend if you are on this side of town and looking for a breakfast spot.

I usually like to bring coworkers or clients here for lunch because it is so quiet and they are very attentive. Food has consistently stayed the same.

I liked the other two options of refried beans and pickled vegetables (I think). Overall, ambiance is always great here. I prefer indoor seating over outdoors during summer and winter time.

Nice portions of food were you can take home. Since I was hungry and my boyfriend had already eaten, we decided to share the 1/2 sandwich and their soup of the day-a bowl of chicken n rice, DELICIOUS. Wonderful friendly helpful waitresses, who are attentive, great customer service, inside and outside seating-weather permitting. Right of Fwy 99 and Main St., in Turlock. Opens at 6:00 am and closes at 3 pm everyday- its a diner, and casual atmosphere! I would highly recommend my family, friends, and new comers. The waitresses are so friendly in Turlock and the cook is so cool. They are all off of Fwy 99 in Hilmar, Ceres and Turlock off of Main St nearby the freeway and and you will see McDonald's on your right side and Hot Rod on your left side facing the freeway. ENJOY! UPDATE: Went again a week ago, and yes the soup was delicious! We learned today that they have a variety of soups of the day. Even the lentil soup was delicious that we decided to take a bowl home to share or not.

We've eaten at the Hot Rod Diner in Ceres and were very impressed with this place. So after church…read moretoday we decided to try the one in Turlock, thinking we'd experience the same quality food and service. We were sadly mistaken. Entering the restaurant, the first thing that caught our attention was the dirty floor, littered with food and paper products throughout the restaurant. Coffee and water came out quickly but never had a refill on the coffee until I had finished my meal. Not because I didn't want any, but our server was busy with other tables and didn't get to us until we were almost done. My wife's meal was mostly ok, but the English Muffin was hard enough to use as hockey pucks. My chicken fried steak had a weird flavor and not sure if it was on the gravy or the seasoning used on the meat. But it was just so-so, nothing to write home about. Best thing was the eggs, done perfectly and hashbrowns were pretty decent. Biggest complaint was the slow service, probably due to it being grad weekend and they were pretty busy with families (according to the cashier), and the extremely dirty place. The bathroom was also dirty, obviously nobody had cleaned it for quite a while. I blame management for not planning ahead and having at least 1 or 2 extra servers/busboys on hand to handle the larger crowd. We decided to return to the Ceres location and call that our home for Hod Rod Diner food. As another recommendation, I suggest taking the carpet out and just having a plain floor; much easier to keep clean than a carpet.
