Buckshot Deli & Diner Reviews
We visited Buckshot with the CVMA on our annual ride to Salton Sea. Vicki was easily able to accompany our large party and the service was excellent!
My husband and I had the fish taco plate. 10/10 would recommend trying it if you haven’t. They have such a wide variety of options that no one in our party left hungry!
The Best omelets anywhere.
This is a great little ma and pa type of restaurant with a wonderful 1950's diner feel to it. There were a lot of options to choose from in the menu. We loved that they brought out delicious tortilla chips with salsa when we first got there. We ended up sharing the carne asada plate for lunch, and it easily fed the 2 of us with a large glass of iced tea. The meal was nicely presented on the platter and it was simply delicious!!!! The staff were super friendly and helpful to us...read full review

Buckshot Deli & Diner is a charming desert gem, offering delicious authentic Mexican food and American dishes. The tomatillo sauce is a must-try, and the chick + beef taquitos are yummy. Run by a friendly couple, the owners, cook, and server are some of the nicest people around, making the service exceptional. The food is excellent, with the chili verde burrito, carne asada plate, and homemade lemonade receiving high praise. Reasonable prices, generous portions, and great taxidermy decor add to the cozy country cafe experience. Located near attractions like Salvation Mountain, it's a favorite stop for locals and visitors alike, with a welcoming atmosphere. Customers describe it as a "great find" and a "friendly family-run place" that's worth a visit, even if the exterior may not look impressive. Many have enjoyed the fresh, well-seasoned food served hot, making it a place that customers recommend returning to for a great meal.
