We stumbled upon this quaint little restaurant a few years ago while traveling. First time we'd had…read morehamballs. Oh my...best ever! This trip we made the specific route to eat here again. Today's buffet was pork tenderloins. Huge portions! Salad bar had a large variety of choices; broccoli salad, corn dish, I think there was a pasta salad, as well as regular salad bar fare; lettuce, cheese, bacon bits, etc. the buffet also had potatoes and green beans. Server brought cheesecake to all the tables. My dinner partner said he'd like to move closer so we could eat there more often. This is definitely a hidden gem off the beaten path worth the drive.

Sometimes order cinnamon rolls 2 go 4 family gatherings, love the Cin rolls. And desserts.

What a gem to come across as we traveled across Nebraska!…read more If you're traveling on I-80 and are tired of the usual choices, the Red Bird Bakery is SO worth stopping for. No it's not the fastest stop but your body will thank you for skipping yet another Little C's pizza or subway sandwich. And the prices here are more than reasonable. We got a few bacon breakfast burritos, a cheese pizza, and a couple cinnamon rolls. The burritos were more of a 3.5-4 star level but the pizza was what brought our review up to 5 stars. Super fresh tasting, soft crust, hearty sauce and plenty of cheese. The cinnamon rolls are big and fluffy with plenty of cream cheese frosting. Yummers. I'd post a photo of the pizza but...I ate it already

A plus for Hastings to have such a great dining spot. The food is not fast food but worth the little extra

Requested eggs over easy and got eggs over hard. The sourdough was perfectly toasted and buttered. Not much Hash browns and not very crisp. Did get an order of pancakes and they were very good. The bacon was excellent and crispy. Service was good.

Fabulous!!!!! Will be back!…read more Atmosphere was fun. Checked tableclothes, super fun salt and peppers shakers, chalkboard dessert menus. Even the restroom had fun things to read and look at on the walls. Loved the vibe. Husband thought it was too loud and busy. He would like to be in permanent quarantine I think. Not many places even attempt the Monte Cristo sandwich and when I saw it on the menu I had to! Love love love a good Monte Cristo! It did not disappoint! Fantastic! Would have liked the raspberry sauce to be a little more fruit and not so gel but it had an amazing flavor so was not too much distraction from the whole picture. The homemade broccoli salad was delish. Finished off my meal with a German Chocolate cake whirl. Wow! Husband got the Poor Man steak (- onion) and a salad and cottage cheese. He was already crabby cause I drug him out of the house to go to the vets office with the dog and a large bill.... so when the salad came with chopped cucumbers on it the grimacing from across the table was almost more than I could take. No worries the flavor of the gravy which he thought was homemade was enough to win him over. And a homemade butterfinger whirl turned even a grumpy farmer into a fan. Koi

The pineapple that came with his kids meal was very fresh and delicious. The lemon bar was good and we will get that again. Service was excellent. They checked on us often. Ambience was nice too.
