This is a pretty nasty place. I should have looked at the reviews more closely. Bathroom had no paper towels and was not clean. No offer of water. Coffee was cold but she nuked it and it was good. Needed a knife to cut my huevos Rancheros' corn tortillas. They did not supply one so I used my pocket knife. The condiments table was a nice touch. The rice was good and the beans were outstanding. They actually made the eggs over medium like I asked them to do which was nice. All in all the foods was real good except for the dried out corn tortillas that I could not eat. It just seems like there's no one really taking care of a place that cares.Sad.

Our family stopped by after a long day of hiking. The quesadilla and taquitos were excellent, and the service was friendly, loading us up with salsa cups to go. This was a great meal to enjoy on the back porch of our desert bnb.

Food is literal garbage it's mediocre. Over priced and terrible customer service. Not even close to being authentic. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME.

Please for the love of God turn off your open sign when you're not open. I work nights and half the time I drive through at 1am starving and the open sign is on and someone in the building, with lights on, tells me they're closed. But the open sign is on and it's supposed to be 24 hours. Come on now. Please just turn it off if you're not open so I don't waste my time and get hangrier. I order extra food for home and tip well. Just turn off the sign so I don't keep getting my hopes up. It's been over a year of me being hangry after work so pretty please don't advertise being 24 hours if you're not. Turn the light off for cleaning and maintenance or whatnot so I don't look ridiculous going through the drive through and get waved away by someone. Thanks.

I recently visited this restaurant on my way back from Joshua Tree National Park for dinner. We ordered the Asada Plate and the Steak Ranchero Plate. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and the delicious sauces provided. The meat was incredibly juicy and freshly cooked, making for a satisfying meal. Definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a tasty and satisfying dining experience.
What can I say. My daughter wanted their carne asada fries, and I caved. Food is trying to be mediocre. There is no legit guacamole here. The prices are the same as going to Las Palmas. No air conditioning was on, only ceiling fans, so it was very hot inside. Staff was medium on the friendly side. We each got a plate and a drink, came to $40. Don't come here, not worth it.

Great little spot. Really tasty tacos cabesa, and the San Filepe fries were an interesting take on the "disco fries" and "garbage plate" dishes popular in the northeast. It was delicious, but a lot of food. The two of us struggled to finish it.

By far the most inedible food in the Hi Desert and that's saying something as the standards are so low here.
