I stop here every month when we travel to visit family in Merced from Bakersfield, reminds me of my child hood going there with my parents on the weekends when we lived in chowchilla.
November 2025
I stop by this place every time on the drive between Nor Cal and So Cal. Right off the freeway, plenty of parking, good menu from breakfast to dinner, and the bar has table service with all the games on. Service is a little slow, don’t have much service staff. But reasonable prices, good selection, plenty of easy parking. Can’t go wrong.
November 2025
Fantastic spot in chowchilla! The top sirloin steak was cooked perfectly - a very nice medium rare. It was seasoned well for a thick and juicy steak.

The reason why I had to rate the food a 4/5 is because everything was heavily salted; too much. The steamed veggies tasted like they were soaked in salt water. The brown gravy on top of my mashed potatoes was heavily salted - inedible, I just ate around the gravy.
