“If you’re ever traveling through sterling, this place is worth the stop. The staff is very welcoming and provides excellent customer service. The food is made fresh and very reasonably priced. They have a salad bar, great selection of sandwiches and delicious ice cream. A local favorite.”
“No place like J&L for home cooked comfort food!Kid-friendliness: This place always makes the whole family feel welcome here all the way down to my baby boy grandson.”
“We really enjoyed our meal. There were simple items for the kids and flavorful authentic dishes for us.The chips and salsa were delicious, and it is a mild smoky salsa. They also served us a cheesy refried bean dip.An excellent place to stop for lunch or dinner.”
“I wanted ribs and glad I got there when I did. I got the last 1/4 rack. Along with the pulled pork, brisket and homemade slaw. It was exactly what wanted. Everything was delicious. Almost felt like I was back home in the South. The staff was definitely very polite and a joy to eat dinner there while I am away from home.Thank you guys for my wonderful dinner”
“Think Mexican Subway with a walk through line as you customize your order. The staff was friendly, place was not busy, and they have glass-bottled Coke! I don't care for the set up of their tables as they are very close together, and the bases of their tables are quite large. I had only a small order of chips and queso, and their queso is sooooo good. I think this is an often missed eatery, and it's worth the stop.”
“The employees are amazing. I have always had a standing special order since they have opened up, And when they see me walking through the door they already have it ready for me. So customer service from every one of them is top-notch.”
“Wow I am impressed. The egg soup thick with egg and tofu and lil celery. Hesitant but ordered twice pork. Lots meat all lean cuts! Fresh veggies! Spice level perfect. Amazing portions. Get the dinner with soup egg roll and crab wonton for about $15 and plenty left for my lunch tomorrow. The service was great. Very friendly staff. Hope to try the lunch buffet sometime. Wish this place was closer to Fort Collins”
“Food is always hot and delicious. I have yet to be disappointed after visiting. Their customer service is always top notch, too. They know what we want almost before we do.”
“Awesome food, came in during one of the windiest days I’ve ever seen in search of some good escape and food. Though chilly, the employees were chipper and all smiles! The server, Izaiah, had some excellent customer service, and brought our food out in no time. Can’t wait to come again!”
“The old Hot Spot was just a few blocks away so we went there a lot. Always the ribs, fries, cheese curds, once in awhile the pulled pork nachos. Staff always does a fine job. Just went to the new Hot Spot last night. I decided to try the brisket grilled cheese. Disappointed that it wasn't on sourdough (the best bread for grilled cheese) and it really should be cheddar which compliments bbq meat much better than American, plus a breaded onion ring on there would be good. Wife stuck to tradition and ordered the ribs. They were good, but a smidgen dry which only happened once before in countless visits. Could've been that cow. The BIG disappointment was the fries?. They switched from the classic crispy krinkle fries (THE BEST!) to McDonald's fries. Go back to the correct fries and I'll put the 5th star back up there.”
“Sam&Louies lunch today. Quick service. Servers were attentive and friendly. Food was out in 10 minutes and they were relatively busy. Food was delicious!!! Lunch menu is from 11am to 3pm and portion was just right for me! Thanks guys!”
“Place was rock solid. Food was great. 4 stars due to having some intestinal issues the following morning. Along with charging 3.29 per kids drink when each child ordered off kids menu.”
“I am from California so I am always on the hunt for authentic Mexican food. El Jacal Mexican Grill delivers on that! I love their enchiladas and if you order a margarita - be ready for a lush overflow of tequila goodness. We have ordered to go as well as eaten in the restaurant and I can't complain! Definitely a well-loved family business and this CA girl appreciates all the chips and salsa you have to offer :)”
“This is one of the Best Places to Eat I had the Carna Fry's OMG Delicious !!! Also the Customer Service was fantastic . I can't wait to try there whole menu !”
“What a pleasant surprise! We are traveling on a ski trip and booked a hotel in Sterling on the way. We had to find dinner and ended up seeing the brewery while on the way to the place we’d selected and decided to stop a take a look and were impressed, so we ended up staying to eat. I cannot say enough about the friendly people, the beer, and the food. Truly some of the best I’ve had anywhere. We will make it a point to stop on our way through on future trips.”
