“I came up here for my honey moon for 6 days and went to every breakfast place we could, we had this place our last day and it was the best and cheap, my wife got the cabin burger and it was big, juicy, and everything on it paired well together, I got the country fried steak and the crust was perfect snd steak was tender, the coffe was pretty good.“

“Amazing Chile Rellenos!!! Damn, I'm craving one now. The Basura burrito is a life changer, for better or worse. We have NO REGRETS! Just for the sheer size alone and comedic aspect (it had us rollin all night whenever we'd glance over and realize we still had to finish it). This entree made our trip extremely memorable. They don't mess around with the quantity of pork and goodies they jam up in there. You must spiritually prepare for something like this, but you will be enlightened afterwards. GODSPEED! & get it wet, for sure. Half roja half verde. Service was ehhhh but it's not really about anything else but the BASURA!! Naw but really, don't skimp on the freakin salsa when we have a 10-pound burrito to take down. & smiling always helps :)“

“Last Sunday it was my first time there, not the last one for sure! Loved the food, it was simply perfect. Service was phenomenal, they made me feel like home immediately, awesome atmosphere! Even though the place was packed, it wasn’t messy at all, short waiting time, I’m coming back again for my Super melt and curly fries!“

“This place was incredible. Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable. She made thoughtful recommendations and was very attentive. Even though the place was pretty full and she was the only server. The food was delicious and incredibly large portions. The price was very reasonable and my wife enjoyed the champagne brunch. I definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a delicious breakfast or lunch.“

“It's a nice setting in the mountains. The inside is a little noisy and has a bar in a large room for dining. I chose outside, and it was great. The service was awesome, very helpful with a smile. I had the tempra avocados for a starter they were great. I highly recommend it. The burger and fries with fruit were the bomb right on point. This is a big burger. I could only eat half.“

My wife got the roasted duck, my favorite is always the angel hair Alfredo, with pan seared mahi mahi , but I changed and tried the German Schnitzel instead. Mouthwatering delicious. We will be back very soon“

“We were blessed to be fed by them, as they catered an event we were at yesterday. We were super impressed. We were served both lunch and dinner. Both of the meals were excellent! If you need catering, we highly recommend them. Fajitas, corn, and rice are the way to go!“

“It's a charming, mountain lodge-like setting, surrounded by trees, fireplaces lit. The lobby fills with guests, awaiting the 6:30 pm start time. On cue and en masse, servers enter the lobby and escort large parties of guests into the dining room, with great efficiency (key word). The large groups appear to be students from graduate school programs; others may be large family gatherings. The menu is largely prix fixe, the only choice being the entree: beef or chicken, and the servers are cheery and, yes, efficient. Large trays of food pour forth form the kitchen. It's clearly pre-prepared: the soup is luke warm at best, the salad is pre-dressed; both still taste "OK". The entree is the weak spot: the beef is pretty dry and flavorless, saved only by the sides of veggies and mashed potatoes (the chicken is reportedly "fine"). No options for wine or beer with the meal. The dessert is some bland pudding. With the efficient serving, the entire meal takes 30 minutes; we could have stayed longer, but the large parties of students were a bit too lively for our tastes. No tipping allowed, which is a shame, since the service was cheery and so... efficient.“

“A quick walk from where we were staying at Arrowhead Lake Inn. We were seated quickly, ordered and were served quickly. I have diet restrictions and they allowed me to order off of the children's menu. Good food! Made us happy.Dietary restrictions: Allowed me to order off the kids menu.“

“Excellent service, the waitress Sindy was very friendly, and attentive, but the service was fast, the salmon was juicy, and excellent flavor, the broccoli aldente, and crunchy.Kid-friendliness: Delicious children's dishes plus the milkshakes“

“We stopped by the cafe during our visit at Santa's Village and was impressed with the food menu options and food. The cheeseburgers were juicy, and came with all the toppings including a sliced pickle! The pizza was delicious and the portions were generous. Would definitely recommend stopping by the cafe during your visit.“
