The lemon meringue pie is clumpy. Twice now that we bought a lemon meringue meringue was deflated not fluffy at all. Maybe they need a new chef to make their pies. I haven't bought any other flavor other than the lemon meringue because it used to be my favorite... Now not so much. I took two bites and I will be getting rid of the rest of this $25 pie.

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.

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.

I recommend if you are on this side of town and looking for a breakfast spot.

Yelp, this is the first time you've let me down! I visited this place for breakfast. The menu was…read moremissing prices, which was a red flag. I ordered a croissant sandwich and a couple of drinks, and let me tell you, it was the saddest croissant sandwich I've ever seen and tasted. As you can see in the picture, it's just the croissant, then the pesto spread, and the turkey is a separate price. How in the world can only the croissant cost $11? The coffee was a simple black coffee with no refill, and it was almost $5. When I asked if it was refillable, she said it was $.50, which was surprising enough. But she probably noticed my surprise, so she offered to give me a free refill, which I didn't take in the end since we were in a hurry. Allison seemed nice, but I would just suggest having a clearer menu with prices so that customers don't have to guess what they're paying for. I won't be coming back because I didn't feel like I was getting my money's worth.

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. However I did notice that the staff was much more attentive to the other big party that got there after us and were seated next to us ( about 12 people). I would maybeeee go again but I've had better service at other packed and busy establishments like Loza, Memos, and black bear

Like others have said, you have to go home and finish making it yourself basically. Don't be fooled by these glowing reviews, all these young girls working there treat *THEIR* friends who come in very well! Which is why they probably have good reviews. I'm assuming the owner doesn't care that his employees horrible customer service which is sad. He had a good thing going at first. Unfortunately today is the last time I will spend my money there. To be specific, the big tall girl working there at 3 PM with her bad attitude. If you want to spend $10 on a frozen pastry and $10 more on a half a** made coffee with horrible customer service, this is your spot!

Not being big fans of last food burgers, we thought "hey, let's give it a try." It's a basic breakfast/lunch diner, so the atmosphere is very average, but we were intrigued by the sandwiches and the Dixieland Steak sandwich caught our eye. Not being big breakfast eaters, we ordered one to split. We were glad we did. It was very substantial. And quite flavorful, too. The steak and BBQ sauce were good. It's basically a patty melt only with steak. Our server was also kind enough to fill our water bottles for us and we were on our way. It was a good stop.

We all agreed that AJ's was certainly one of the places to go in Turlock for a nice, non-chain restaurant breakfast. Great service (you WILL not run out of coffee or tea) with smiles both on the staff and patrons. The ambiance is cafe/grill on a Sunday morning and that was just fine with us. Our relative had the oatmeal, prepared and interesting way, my wife the Joe's scramble, and I the veggie omelet (can you tell I am seeing my doctor in the morning?) I scooped up a few of my wife's okra and found them delicious. We agreed that our meals were spot on, flavor was excellent, portions fair, and we enjoyed our time there. Kudos to AJ's!
