    Double cheese burger and fries
    Michael G.

    Pretty good burger. Opted for pickles on side, no tomato. The condiments were good just the lettuce or ketchup and mustard made the bread fall apart. Held up but something was too moist. Overall was a good burger and would come back again

    Far cheeseburger basket, near combination burger, juicy, greasy deliciousness, best burgers in El Paso.

    Best burger anywhere and the fries are just as good. Small place and you have to wait but well worth it. Service is top notch.

    Food: Great burgers and fries Service: Quick and efficient service. Ambience: The restaurant was very busy and crowded, but a very enjoyable place to eat. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit there.

    The food was amazing and so comforting. It is loud, but you can still have a conversation with your company. This was just what we needed after a LONG drive.

    It's as good as I remember. Been 12 years since I left ftbliss. I've missed these burgers.

    Yes I do recommend this place but it's super small u might have to wait outside for a table or to get seats

    Tiny awesome spot! The kitchen is in full view of the tables, the dinning space isn't large so seating is limited (especially if you come in with a large party). Burger was simple and amazing. I will say the pattie was on the thinner side, so maybe ask for a double if you have a larger appetite. The Chili Fries were bomb, so were the Caldo Cheese Fries. I highly recommend either as a side. They offered both ketchup and green salsa as side condiments. The green salsa had hit of relish flavor, it was a bit weird but good nonetheless. Great Mexican American fusion. I'll definitely be back for more.

    I brought my youngest son here. We had our Saturday time together, and I told him I knew of this local gem. I let him know that my father and his father would come here after baseball games- as if it were a legend. While he reluctantly agreed - air doesn't look like much from the outside- he knows that places like this can be extraordinarily good. As we say I looked up the history and wow nostalgia and pride for an amazing lifetime the lord has graced me with. And the burger was rated top notch by the best food critic this side of the Mississippi. Thanks to the staff for a great experience!!

    I was craving a chopped steak smothered with mushroom and onion gravy mashed potatoes and some…read moregreen beans and I called several places and looked in YELP to see if any had something like that but no one really did, so I was in the north central El Paso so I decided to go up Dyer and go to the New Clock Diner and maybe get a steak and potatoes etc instead but when I walked in the door their new Dinner combo specials greeted me at the door and of course a ground round steak with brown gravy and mushrooms and onions was o e of the choices! With mashed potatoes and veggie medley, and soup and iced tea for just $12.95! Well JACKPOT! I ordered and this soup came first it was a chickeny flavored tomato broth with tortilla strips and melty white cheese. The broth was WAAAAY to salty. But I liked the concept. It had no veggies or any meaning it. So I ate out the chips and cheese and I would have liked to enjoy that broth but it was so so salty I just could not. When my plate came it was a nice spiced grilled ground round Pattie covered in hot brown gravy with thin sliced onions and small thin sliced fresh mushrooms. Homemade real mashed potatoes, and veggies mix of corn, carrots, peas, and green beans. If it had a dinner roll, it would have been dinner at my house growing up any night of the week. It was so good, the veggies could have used some butter on them. The gravy was great on the meat and potatoes. Sorry I didn't get a pic of that plate, but I was so hungry I just dug in and by the time I thought of a pic, it was half way gone. The clock inside isn't winning any beauty contests. It's still same as it's always been. I think maybe I'd set all the clocks to the correct time or the correct time somewhere and make sure they all worked if possible or had good batteries. Be great if the coco clocks, if any, went off every hour. Bring some more character to the old place, and favorite of many. Come get dinner some after noon or late afternoon. It's a great deal... there were only 2-3 other tables when I got there and when I left no one was there . So you can definitely come get a good cup of Joe and some good food in the afternoon, it's not just for breakfast, which it IS FAMOUS FOR.

As we're close to the Army base some of the items have received GI nicknames as was the case with biscuits and gravy (SOS on the menu!). The coffee refills were plentiful and I supplemented my "SOS" with eggs over easy and hash browns. My wife had the breakfast burrito. She had plenty to take home.

I kept it classic with waffles, bacon, and eggs--and it absolutely hit the mark. The waffles were light, fluffy, and perfectly golden, the bacon was cooked just right, and everything came out fresh and satisfying. Simple comfort food done right. But what really elevated the experience was the atmosphere. They had live musical entertainment by Louie, who was incredible. He played a mix of hits from yesterday and today, moving effortlessly between country & western, contemporary favorites, and traditional Spanish songs. His versatility created a warm, lively environment that both staff and customers clearly enjoyed--it added something special you don't find everywhere. Service was just as impressive. Our server, XAY, had a bright, welcoming smile and provided outstanding service from start to finish. They offered great suggestions on local favorites and specials, which made the experience feel personal rather than routine. The vibe overall is relaxed, inviting, and very "El Paso"--a place where you can sit, enjoy your meal, and stay a while. Overall: Delicious, well-executed brunch classics Live music that enhances the experience (not overwhelms it) Exceptional, friendly service Comfortable, welcoming atmosphere Would I go back? Without a doubt. This is more than just brunch--it's an experience.

I went in for brunch, and one place that absolutely deserves a visit is The Junction Brunch House. The restaurant is set inside a literal house, which gives it a cozy, welcoming feel from the moment you walk in. The service is warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly. As for the food? Ay Dios mio! Outstanding. I ordered Big T's Texas Breakfast: two eggs any style, bacon, and pancakes or French toast. I chose scrambled eggs and pancakes. The presentation was impressive, looking more like something you'd expect at a high-end hotel restaurant. The eggs were folded neatly, omelet-style, into a triangle and cooked perfectly--flavorful and fluffy. The bacon was crispy yet juicy, just right. The pancakes were a four-stack, light and fluffy with a beautiful griddle finish. They came with butter mixed with brown sugar and cinnamon, and a side of and maple syrup, which took them to another level. Junction has locally made hot sauce on the table, and fair warning as both packed some serious heat and paired perfectly with the eggs. What really stood out was the attentive service. The staff checked in regularly, made sure I had everything I needed, and seemed to refill my coffee right on cue. While brunch alone makes it worth the trip, the menu offers much more than breakfast. I'm already looking forward to going back to try their lunch options. If you're in El Paso and craving a comfortable atmosphere with excellent food and service, this is a spot you shouldn't miss.

If the point if a DIP sandwich is the AuJus, you should announce you are out AT THE TIME THE ITEM IS ORDERED!! It took so long to get the mean, I did not feel like sending it back to the kitchen to order something else. And don't bring out Malt vinegar or Worchestershire sauce as a "substitute! French fries as a side were luke warm and UNSALTED! Salt would no longer stick to the potatoes at that time. Sandwich was dry....definitely needed the Au Jus.

The wings are so big, these aren't your usual run of the mill frozen wings fried to order, the breading flavorful, the wings were fried hot and deliciously. I had to wait for my food to cool down to eat it, and that's saying something. We had fries with queso (and I don't recommend that, the queso was so plain and became hard quickly, but the fries were good). We tried traditional hot buffalo and the double dip sauce or something like that. It was a sweet and spicy mix that was so good and a house favorite. I definitely recommend giving them both a try. We ordered 20 wings and came home with 8. The food was filling and it wasn't much more than any other mid priced establishment. The restaurant is inside multiple train cars what are lined up parallel to each other. You can look out of the windows and see another train car of guests enjoying delicious food. The menu was very diverse with burgers, steaks, salads, nachos and of course wings. The table next to us ordered the Philly nachos and the smell of the steak, cheese and pepper combination filled the car. The only down side to being in a train car was the noise definitely echos. If you are next to screaming babies or a loud table of tipsy women your ears will be ringing a bit, but I'd say it's still worth it and maybe just part of the experience. Another downside is no garlic wings, oh man I wish they had that on the menu because I'm sure they'd be amazing. Regardless, this is an awesome stop and one we plan to bring family to. The food is tops, the service was great and the atmosphere was pretty cool too. I've included a picture of some leftovers, these wings are even good the day after and they are so big.
