    Chicken, bacon, cheddar, and ranch wrap with sweet potato fries
    Erin C.

    Good food, good prices, and friendly staff. It's a small diner with a fun setting. Everything was clean and welcoming. We enjoyed our lunch. I upgraded to sweet potato fries which weren't an up charge on our bill which was nice. They were delicious. I was a tad sad that the ranch isn't homemade (the Detroiter in me loves homemade diner ranch!), but overall it worked in the wrap nicely. Dad's Bellybuster meal was large & yummy. Worth the price. They have wifi and the password is on the wall to use. They take cash and cards. Parking is easy in front. There is patio seating and a counter area to sit at as well. We'll be back I'm sure. Thanks!

    Breakfast Quesadilla
    Duane L.

    Really enjoyed the Westside Diner, especially the breakfast quesadilla. I was concerned that it might be too spicy, as I have a low tolerance for that, but it was actually very flavorful and not at all hot. Those of you who are wild for hot food can always add hot sauce to it, but of course I passed on that option. Try it for yourself on your next visit here!

    Country fried steak
    Ernie H.

    Best Country fried steak I've had. The Gravy completes this dish. The Monte Cristo was filling they were generous with the meat but the cheese was almost absent. The seasoned fries were good. Our friends got the grouper sandwich which they said was super flaky tender and really good. The staff was nice.

    The meal was great, if you come here I highly recommend the fries and chicken wrap! (No bacon) The atmosphere was welcoming and friendly, and people were quiet and wore smiles, they have a sign with free gift cards if you can't afford a meal, how amazing is that!! The only problem I have with this establishment is poor time management. We asked for our waters 10 minutes ago, helllloooo?! 4 stars, would come back.

    Service was slow. Food was sub par. Really small space, so if you like eating right next to 10 other people this is the place for you.

    I've stopped here twice while doing business in West Branch. It's located in a strip mall next to…read moreDollar General. I enjoyed the chimichanga the first time, but the best entree was the Rancheros tacos. They are three delicious deep-fried flour tacos served with beans and rice. I agree with other reviewers that the free chips and salsa are bland, but three hot sauces are available at the table if you want to spice it up. Don't forget the fried ice cream for dessert. Booth and flat-top seating in a quaint, Hispanic-themed restaurant with very decorative tables and music. Parties of 5 or more may have a wait, per the sign on the door. DoorDash and takeout. No credit card fee. Lunch and combo specials. Competitive pricing. The food comes out quickly with good service. Large strip mall parking lot. I have and will return.

We got there just before the lunch crowd but service was fast and the food was excellent. My mom and I both got the beef chimichanga lunch. It came with rice and beans and a guacamole salad on the side. The white queso sauce over the chimichanga was excellent. Everything was hot and fresh and lunch also comes with complementary chips and salsa. The chips were a little on the heavier side but surprisingly light and tasty. They make them in house our waitress told us. Prices were reasonable and we were in and out in 30 minutes and back on the road.

For $55 we got 2 horchatas, a small chips and salsa, shrimp taco meal, and the breakfast number 1. My daughter really enjoyed the homemade horchata, I like mine with a little more spice but it was very creamy, lightly sweet, and I would order again. Salsa was processed smoothly with very few pieces of veg if that's how you like it, the flavor was good, very mild. The chips were not homemade but also good for being the standard tortilla chip. The tacos are American style with flour tortillas, cheese, and sour cream which is not our preferred way to eat tacos so that's on us. If you like American style these were spot on. The rice was fantastic and the side of beans were pinto beans and not refried, also tasty but soupy. The scrambled eggs with carnitas were so oily that they were swimming in the bottom. Additionally the menu indicated they came with cheese and hash brown but mine was missing as can be seen in the photo (rectified immediately and kindly so absolutely not a complaint). The green salsa was minimal, would have preferred more as that was where the only real flavor came from. I wouldn't order again due to the oil. We may return and try again as the food was fresh, nicely cooked, the service was fantastic, and the place was spotless. We just like a little more authentic with perhaps different spice levels of salsa (little more spicy).
