    Chicken fried steak, biscuit & gravy, skillet with soft scrambled eggs
    Amber S.

    Came out for visit to Pahrump to see my mom... had to come back and try lunch... the Mom-strosity burger was very good! The mystery sauce was very tasty! I wonder if I could get a side of the sauce to dip my fries in next time!

    My first time trying Mom's Diner after visiting Death Valley. Mom and Pop style sit down restaurant. Food is cheap for the quality. The crew was friendly and really fast service. I would eat here again if i ever come back.

    Decided to have breakfast here and we were very pleased with service and food. The atmosphere is nice with lots of interesting things on the walls, staff friendly and attentive (they are the awesome and consistent with coffee refills), menu selection and prices good, and food great. We got seated immediately and our order taken quickly. Overall, we had a very good experience and definitely would return.

    We stopped here on our way back to Vegas from Death Valley to me the good reviews and fewer options at Death Valley. We checked in upon entering and had to wait 15 minutes before being seated, but they were accurate about that. Some people didn't know to check in, so I would suggest that they have a sign to check in at the front so that people don't waste their time. We were very impressed with the food. We had the two eggs plate with a biscuit and hash browns and my partner had the chicken fried steak with a biscuit and hash brown. The hash browns were very crispy while the biscuits were very fresh, flaky and buttery. We also got a side of fresh salsa for the chicken steak and it had a nice kick to it. Everything was made to perfection and the staff were also very friendly and helpful. Prices are very reasonably for just over $30 for two breakfasts (including tip). Prices are very affordable. This is the kind of place where the staff call their regular patrons by their names. There's also some cute decor all throughout the restaurant and it is a great representation of the quintessential American diner.

    The food was mediocre at the best. Maybe next time we'll have to try out the hamburgers... We tried breakfast (Kitchen sink omelette, Deuces plate). The omelette was very runny with the egg and "wet like" veggies. It didn't taste very well, bland. Pancakes were massive, but just not tasty like I'd expect. I feel like they need to work on their flavor. Our waitress was also less than with her attitude and service; just seemed like another day and another dollar. Could have been much more "friendly", smiling.... I'll come back once more...maybe... and try the burgers?! That is... they were voted "Best Burger 2024" in Pahrump...?

    This was my first time to Pahrump, NV and I had to stop by this place. Just by their interior decor felt like the 20's-30's vintage vibe. They have really cool vintage signs throughout their dining room and even in the bathroom!! I met the owner Brett, and just him spending the time to share his story in the midst of a crowded restaurant, made me feel like he really cares about his customers and for his community. 90 percent of the locals are either former military, law enforcement, or EMS. And what better way to serve the community then serving those who have or currently serve. The entire staff is friendly and helpful. Everyone works hard to ensure each customer is greeted, served and taken care of. I ordered "The Skillet" with bacon and it was delicious! The bacon was crispy and the eggs were cooked over easy. As I cut into them the yoke was mixed in with the onions, peppers, and cheese bringing the entire dish together. I will have to make another trip out to Pahrump just to eat at Mom's diner. Brett, I will be back brother....

We had our medical service dog with us and were the only people in the entire restaurant. When we walked in we were asked if our dog was a service dog, said yes, ordered our food and sat down near the door. From our table we could very clearly hear the cook in the back venting to the waitress about how anyone can just claim their dog is a service dog, clearly directed at us. It was uncomfortable to say the least. When the waitress came back out we offered to eat outside or show our documentation, she said she didn't need to see it and was fine with the dog staying inside, which we appreciated. To her credit, the waitress ended up being really warm and we actually had a nice conversation with her. She mentioned that only 31 people live in Shoshone full time and that most of the staff commutes in from Pahrump, which gave us a little more context for the town. The food was on the pricier side but I get it, running a restaurant in a place this small where you never quite know who's passing through has to be a challenge. The bathrooms were clean. Honestly though, we just wanted to finish our meal and get out. The experience left us feeling uncomfortable despite the waitress doing her best to turn it around.

We made a special note to stop here on the way back home. So here we are.! 1 PM Friday afternoon, and the place is completely empty. Creech Air Force Base is across the way. Probably gets busy here during shift change. This big boy is hooked to Terrible's Casino. You have to walk into the casino to get to the restaurant. We were greeted nicely as we walked in. Asked for a booth, even though the restaurant was empty. Nice enough servers and hostess. But as others stated: the service is slow. 3 servers, only 2 other tables and the workers were very busy talking to each other. We sat for nearly 10 minutes before they decided who would wait on us. What we ordered: Super big boy (basically double meat 4 patties to split with wife) Hot fudge cake (also to share) The burger arrived pretty quickly. And for the extra $1.50 charge for double meat well worth it. Hard to say, but almost too much meat? Even splitting it. The fries are floured. Not my favorite. The hot fudge cake was HUGE. Basically two pieces of cake with ice cream between them. Great fudge sauce also. It's not the same as the Bob's big boy growing up, but it will do. My favorite dessert is chocolate cake with ice cream and hot fudge. I'm pretty sure Bob's big boy started this obsession for me. Until my mid 20s, I always stopped for a burger combo and a dessert. It is pricey but there's no other option out here. I would but definitely stop back here for the dessert. Especially since that huge monstrosity was only seven dollars lol. Many don't know that BBB was the ' double-decker' burger. Long before the big Mac lol. They used to have a combination burger that served fries and a salad. Now you have to pay extra for salad ($4)
