First off, let's be clear that this place has not been open long as the Highway Dhaba Bar and Grill so most of these reviews are from the previous Pine Cone and Hwy Cafe and Bakery.
Please avoid this restaurant. I don't see how they've been able to pay rent this far with so few customers. I will not be going back to the restaurant......I didn't even finish my meal and I didn't want to take the leftovers with me. The place looks horrendous inside. They replaced some of the booths, but removed most of the seating from the building. They added a bar, but the 'back room' from the Hwy Cafe, appears to be completely closed off, yet still has chairs and booths and tables in there but the seating is not available. Our waitress left after taking our order and we were handed off to somebody else - who was the only waitress - and her first day. Food was brought out to us and she had to ask who had the omlette with veggies........had no clue what she was even carrying out to tables. Whoever was in the kitchen this morning (12/14/2025) needs to learn how to cook an omlette and hash browns. Their menu is a complete train wreck.....proofreading never happened and it is very hard to read as there are many misspelled words and returns were not used and words ran from line to line when they shouldn't have.
Hopefully this place closes and goes out of business soon.

Great food. The interior is pretty basic, nothing special, but the food definitely makes up for it. I ordered chicken biryani, garlic naan, and red wine. The food took about 15 minutes to prepare. The portion was large with plenty of chicken — filling and flavorful. The naan was slightly burnt, but nothing serious. Overall, I was very happy with the food.

We had heard the restaurant was now Indian cuisine instead of the original truck stop diner. We have seen great reviews so decided to give it a try and we Ordered the chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, vegetable korma and naan to go. It was DELICIOUS! Super flavorful, hot and exactly what we were wanting. Will definitely be coming back for more.

Very tasty north Indian cuisine. I had paneer Tikka masala- it had a very rich flavor. My husband had goat Tikka masala and he said it was really good. I loved the mango lassi but didn't like that it came in a plastic bottle. Unsure how fresh it was. They could use some help in the atmosphere department- the truck stop smells and vibes are not the most inviting. I hope they are able to fix things up. But for the food ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had a very nice experience, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Don’t let the old reviews steer you away. They’ve completely remodeled inside. New seating, a bar and a nice well lit back room with fun machines and pull tabs! The food was delicious. My friend and I split Samosa Chaat to start and shared an order of Chicken Tikka Masala. Everything was very fresh and delicious and we had plenty. Mango lassi is made very well too.
