We love everything about this place and go on a regular basis. Jeni always takes good care of us and I appreciate that she members all my preferences! I’m very repetitive about this, but I love their Reubens!

Up North, but I drove 1 1/2 hours to try the restaurant. Well worth a drive & don't pass up the chance to go there if coming home on M-33 heading home from Onaway or north of that.

My favorite is the cheese sticks. We drive a lot of miles for these, but it's all great, including the staff!

I got gas. But it's what I expected because I filled my truck with 87 octane.

It is in my opinion that i had a bad experience at this restaurant, i did not enjoy my meal.
We were never waited on. Sat at the bar. Staff weren't friendly, didn't seem to know how to smile and certainly didn't care. We went to the store next door and left. We had planned on lunch here, their loss.

Been riding the trails in Atlanta for the last 2 years, we have stop to eat twice at this restaurant and have been treated rude with very poor service each time! I always give a place a couple of chances, but clearly they only cater to the alcohol paying customers..Not rider friendly!!!!

I had to send my baked potato back because it was served at room temperature- not warm enough to melt butter. My chicken breast was so over done ot was difficult to cut let alone chew. I will not go back.

We have been going to El Bo Inn for years. It’s our favorite restaurant to go to while staying at CCR. Of course, we expected Saturday night to be busy, but that was ridiculous. We waited for a table for 6 of us for almost an hour. Which again, on Saturday night you're going to have some sort of wait. But while others are getting seated at a table, if 5 came in after us and were seated before us, all they needed to do was pull up another chair, and it would have been perfect. We were told when we got there in just 15–20 mins. A 1/2 hour later I asked the host how much longer she said. 15 mins then my friend didn’t know. I just asked, and she then said 45 mins to an hour. We were finally seated because they were the size of us: 4 adults at one table and then about 2 teenagers at another about 5 feet away. We ordered our food and appetizers right away. Our order consisted of 2 appetizers: mozzarella sticks and fried mushrooms, Ribeye dinner, boneless chicken wings and fry basket, wild game burger x2 and cowboy burger x2. At hour number 2 of being in the restaurant at that time, there were still no appetizers. The waitress kept saying they would be on their way. Well, they didn’t. Other tables were all getting their food and eating, leaving etc., and we would all still wait for our food. We were all so hungry at that time, it was too late to go to a store to get food or drive to another restaurant. 2 1/2 hours in, we finally got our appetizers. Just after 3 hours, we finally got our food. My husband and daughter both ordered the same thing: the wild game burger. Now they both looked different. My husband looked like a frozen from a fast food restaurant, while our daughter actually looked like a wild game burger patty. Then I mention both were cold, and the fries were just as cold. Next they gave me my ribeye, which was multicolored, undercooked and also overdone and gray. I also had a side of fries with it and both were cold as can be. It’s like they took the ribeye right out of the fries and it was hard. The 2 cowboy burgers and fries came out along with the wing basket. Well, cowboy burgers and fries were cold as well, so that’s 5 out of the 6 meals cold. The only warm hit was our appetizers as well as the chicken wing basket with fries. At this point, we were so mad seeing others walk in after us eating to eat and leave, and we just got our food, and it was cold. We sat close to the kitchen and overheard staff with the kitchen not getting along with the wait staff. There was no manager on duty, so we talked to the bartender about our issue, stating we have been here over 3 hours and our food is cold. She told us she remembers us from when we walked in and orders our drinks at the bar. It’s sad that she even knew we'd been there for so long. Our bill was over $160, which included drinks, and for that type of money you expect the service of good food bringing to your table and enjoying that food. My ribe eyes were so disgusting looking I was shocked. They even took that to me. The cooks should be embarrassed by themselves. It’s not like we wouldn’t have spent the money on our food and drinks. This is why we went out. We didn’t want to cook ourselves and enjoy going out with friends. Now let me say this was not our waitresses' fault by any means. She was sweet along with the bartender who was working the evening of 10/11/2025. On top of all this, as we were dealing with the mess going on with our teenage daughters who were sitting at a table by themselves, a gentleman offered to buy them a drink and then their dinner. They are under-age girls and offering to buy them a drink from the bar, come on. Our girls were polite and said no thank you. Our experience on Saturday evening was not good and after years of being there, it’s been going downhill for a while. This will be our last time going to El Bo Inn. You need someone managing the kitchen because obviously there was an issue, as well as a manager in the restaurant itself, to make sure it is running smoothly. Getting there at 6:20 pm and leaving close to 10:

We walked in just after a party of 45 had left and a party of 25 were getting ready to leave so there was a small wait. However our waitress was amazing and the food was awesome. Would Definitely return when in the area again!!
