A Pleasant Surprise with a Small-Town Feel…read more This one caught me off guard--in a good way. I was out with my family practicing for my daughter's driving test at the DMV up the street. We pulled up Yelp to find a good lunch spot, saw the solid reviews, and decided to give it a try. When we walked in, the atmosphere had that small-town vibe--simple, welcoming, and comfortable. The food was very good. The service wasn't polished like a Michelin star restaurant, but it didn't need to be. It was authentic and heartfelt, and sometimes that matters more. You could tell the staff cared about what they were doing. The place was busy, especially for the time of day we went, which tells you something. People come here on purpose. That says a lot. We were seated quickly, our order was taken without any issues, and the food came out in a reasonable time. When it hit the table, the portions were generous and satisfying. I wish I had taken pictures, but I was too busy enjoying the moment. If you go, post your photos--I'm sure the business would appreciate it. If you've followed my reviews, you know I don't give out 4 stars often, and 5 stars are rare. This place earned that extra star because of how it made me feel--between the food, the atmosphere, and the service, it just worked. If I'm ever back in the area, I'm definitely coming back for another meal.

Big change in food taste since our last visit. The french…read moreonion soup was bland, no flavor. Fried chicken was ok , added salt. The chicken fried steak tasted like it came out of a package.

I've passed by this joint numerous times and on one of those passes, I decided to stop…read more No one was there except the bartender/server guy and he was affable enough, that is once you broke the ice. I ordered the Beer Battered Mushrooms, but after some time, I guess the call from the kitchen said they were out of it. So...I settled for the onion rings. It was fair. So there I was, just having a Coke to drown the greasy onion rings with the TV at the bar broadcasting some inconsequential program, on an idle afternoon at an uneventful roadside eatery. I suppose life can be worse. :-)

December 29, 2025 - Jackson, CA…read more This diner was a great stop for breakfast while traveling through Jackson on our way to Yosemite. It's a classic diner, so the atmosphere is exactly what you'd expect, but the service was excellent and my meal was good. I appreciated the "Seniors 59 and Older" section on the menu--perfect for those of us who don't eat as much as we used to. I ordered the Breakfast Sandwich ($8.49), which came with bacon, egg, and cheese on an English muffin. It was a perfect portion and very tasty. Would definitely stop here again.

The sandwich was excellent along with enough fries for 2 teenage boys along with a pickle. A little pricey ($25) but there was plenty of food for both of us. Our server, I believe Jason, did a nice job in a packed restaurant at lunch.

The pizzas were about medium size and tasted like a frozen pizza from the grocery store. Little amount of toppings and limited flavor. I order the Full court kush drink and I don't think any alcohol was in it. I felt like I wasted $12 on juice. Only positive, they have lots of TV with the games & fights on and cool artwork. They have a nice area with leather couches. We would have loved to come back later and have some drinks in the couch area but since my 1st drink taste like only juice, we didn't come back to this restaurant during our stay!

We were recommended this bar from people after the Lodi wine fest. I showed up with and 8 of my…read morefriends for my birthday. We had a blast in the beginning. We were there for about four hours.... everybody left except me and my friend both of us females. As the night went on however, the locals came in. We had some big broad, flipping us off across the way while we were just sitting at the bar, and it got way worse. The two gentlemen sitting next to us were there from work and it was their first time as well. They were pipe fitters and they were staying at adjacent hotel, they were going to give us a ride home. For no reason at all about 10 Cowboys hats came our direction and threatened all four of us. We were backed up against the wall as they all stood up and walked over our direction. My friend and I got up and walked around, my friend kept saying this is horrible. We didn't do anything wrong. We keep asking the bartender what's going on why is this happening ??? My friend asked some guy are you just gonna let these guys jump us? The bartender said she was shutting it down told us that we needed to go around and get out of here from the back.. we called 911,four times!!! and no one showed up. We feared for our lives, fortunately one of the locals told us to sit by him and not move and assisted in getting a stranger to drive us all the way back to our hotel. We were so worried about the other two men who did absolutely nothing and were getting punked by the local hillbillies. We have no idea whatever happened to the two guys. We ended up going to their hotel and explaining in case they didn't show up from work the next day. I highly recommend that no one attends this bar unless you live in that neighborhood and know everybody; it's clear Lodi people should be NOT be recommending it. It's a safety concern at this point. And this probably won't be the last time.

Our server had a lot of tables, but she got to us in a timely fashion. The food was pretty good but the wings were our favorite of all the items we got. One little note was the side salad tasted dirty. Like actual dirt. Other than that, we'd like to go back!
