"This little gem is just off the main road! The owners and friendly and the food tastes like it came out of my momma’s kitchen! The whole family loved it; great experience! Absolutely worth the stop!"

"On our way back home to Dallas, Tx from Del Rio. Tx, we stopped here for lunch reading the Google reviews. It was so good. My husband and I had the chicken fried steak, which came with garlic mashed potatoes, green beans, salad with homemade ranch (delicious), and a roll. My daughter had the huge petty melt and granddaughter a cheeseburger and fries. If you are passing through Eldorado, Tx, you have to stop here. We haven’t had a good cafe meal in a long time. Prices are very reasonable."

"We needed breakfast and it was well worth the detour off i10, especially if you have children. They have a bunch of toys for kids, and we ended up staying for almost 2 hours. It opened around 620, and the staff was great. The food was wonderful, great bacon, hash browns, and eggs. Definitely worth the extra few minutes."

"Grabbed a burger to-go here on my way to Austin and I’m so glad I stopped in. It’s adorable inside and the people were really lovely. The burg was great quality and large and prices were great, too. Skip the fast food and stop here on your way through Texas if you can. :)"

"Nice little diner in Eldorado recommended by a local that we met at the super market. Lunch was mostly burgers, sandwiches and salad bar. The special of the day was chicken spaghetti which was more of a chipotle flavored Alfredo, very nice."
