My son and I were in this area and needed something quick to eat. Did a quick Google search and this place popped up. Decided to go and grab a bite. I was pleasantly surprised! The girl at the register was Very friendly and bubbly! The restaurant was clean. I didn't see any dirty tables. I actually used the restroom, and was impressed! Clean! I ordered a Junior cheeseburger and some fried zucchini. My son ordered the California burger combo, which comes with avocado and bacon on the burger, along with fries and a drink. Let me just say, the portions are huge! The food tasted Great. No complaints, what so ever! The food came out quickly. With quite a few customers inside as well as a busy drive thru. If I'm ever in the area again and hungry, I would definitely stop by.

As a truck driver I have gone to many different restaurants and i can without a doubt say this restaurant has the best food. In specific i enjoy their chilli. They make their chilli in house and out of all the different places i have tried this place has some of the best service and food.

Absolute gem for lunch. I ordered the steak sandwich with fried mushrooms. Good sized portions, friendly staff. I'm a long haul trucker and parked behind the restaurant waiting on my unload appt. Always looking for good places I can count on to satisfy my hunger throughout the 22 states I normally travel through. This is my spot in Riverside CA now. Looking forward to exploring the menu over time!

I've had their regular hamburger, a chili burger, and just right now their egg and sausage breakfast sandwich. Today was the first time I had their salsa, and it was amazing. I'm just going to have to come back here again and try a breakfast burrito with their salsa, the breakfast sandwich tasted really good with it.

This little known burger joint gets a well deserved 5 star for the combination of food and service consistently delivered everytime I go there. Has a hometown burger joint feel with a large menu of great options for breakfast and lunch. Food is fresh and hot like you made it at home. The service is always bright and welcoming. Service staff do not rush you for your order and willing to make special requests work. A very feel-good place to eat, must try if in the area.
