Food is delicious and service is great. One of our Favorite stops
Anytime I'm going through Truckee I like to stop at Jax. Its a cute diner with a long history. I enjoy seeing the trains go by too. The restrooms are always clean as is the restaurant.

Great food
Great, friendly service
Love the fact that you are dining inside of an old train car...so cool!

Jax At The Tracks is a charming old-fashioned diner with a great atmosphere that attracts many visitors. The food is generally good, with highlights including the Chicken Waffles, praised as the best in town, and the fried fish, known for being flaky and crisp. The real crab grilled cheese and bison chili have also received positive mentions, showcasing a great combo for diners. The diner is an old refurbished railroad dining car with period decor, creating a unique and nostalgic setting. The staff is friendly and nice, and the decor adds to the authentic vibe. The Vanilla Caramel shake is highly recommended, described as "the bomb," and the menu offers a variety of tasty options like Guinness onion rings, lava cake, French dip, and pulled pork sandwich. Portions are generous, and the milkshake remains a standout. While service can sometimes feel less involved, there is a desire for the staff to engage more and share the story of the place. Overall, it's a family-friendly spot with a mix of ordinary and exceptional dishes, including the sexy chicken sandwich, which has been well received, and ribeye, which may vary in taste. Visitors note the easy online ordering and pickup, and many plan to return to enjoy the great food and welcoming atmosphere.
