I'm so glad we stumbled upon this place because it's truly a gem. Casual cozy ambiance and delicious freshly cooked home style food in large portions. The food all was served piping hot and had great flavor. The True Grit bowl was amazing and I had them add sausage gravy which was creamy and peppery and so so good. Their Pecan Roll is to die for - I just wish they wouldn't served it with some kind of icing instead of a large pat of butter. I was sorely tempted to take home a slice of pie from the cabinet by the hostess station but I refrained. The staff treated our party, which included three young kids, like family and our waitress was very kind to the kids. We hope to be back soon!

I wanted a burger he wanted to sit down meal and we ended up at the Moonlight Diner. Walking into the diner is like a step back in time. The decor is 1950s memorabilia with chrome touches and leather wrapped seating. It's everything you would think a diner would be but the food is so much more. They have a full bar as well as dairy treats, including shakes and malts. They also have breakfast all day and love their pancakes. They also serve barbecue. But I went for the patty melt. And my other half went for breakfast. His breakfast was the mountain man breakfast and was full of meats, eggs hashbrowns, and Ken with pancakes, but he opted for English buffet instead. It also came with a side of toast. It was a very ample breakfast. My patty melt sure did hit the spot. It was a perfectly medium cooked hamburger on rye with cheddar, and Swiss melted with grilled onions and thousand island dressing. Instead of fries, I went for the mashed potatoes and gravy. It was comfort food to the max. My date also got the peanut butter shake. He slurped that down in a hot minute. He said it was wonderful. He offered me a taste at least twice before I noticed it was gone. There's also meatloaf on the menu as well as a pulled pork barbecue Frito pie and they have a Frito pie burger. They also serve meatloaf. They have several classics and several twists. I recommend going there. There's something for everyone.

They have fed hungry motorists and truckers for decades, so they know how to get good food in your belly at a reasonable price point. The service is good and friendly so that helps make a meal great. The ambience is interesting with the Cadillac and other automotive memorabilia on display. There are plenty of things to see, so take them all in. You cannot miss the elevated Cadillac which is your signal to pull over and rest, while enjoying something tasty and filling. Enjoy!

The not as good was the breakfast burrito was mediocre. It is a very large portion so that's nice but the flavor was nothing special. It comes with eggs, potatoes, choice of meat (I think I did adovada) and smothered with Chile (I did red and green Christmas style). The coffee was also good but nothing to rave about. Perhaps other breakfast or lunch items are good. Just a bummer since this location is so close and has a big parking lot making it easy to get to.

A hot skillet filled with ham, green peppers, onions and cheese along with their country style potatoes. He got his two eggs over hard and chose sourdough toast to go with. He enjoyed his breakfast. I got the Huevos Rancheros. Always a favorite. I asked for basted eggs and they came smothered on top of the hash browns. It was accompanied by beans, rice and warm flour tortillas. My breakfast was tasty. I wished there was a bit more kick in the green chile, however, there was Cholula on the table so I kicked it up myself. Our friend had the Migas, three scrambled eggs, green chiles, tortilla chips, onions, diced tomato and melted cheese. His came with rice, beans and a side of green chile. He chose chorizo as his meat and also asked for a side of biscuits and gravy as well as some flour tortillas. He enjoyed every bite. Our service was great. Our waters were kept topped off. Our friend was able to get refills to his coffee. We were well cared for. Overall good experience.
