Great little restaurant, people are nice and the food hits the spot. Can’t go wrong with a good diner breakfast. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Quirky little diner. Lots of cool, old stuff, all over. Very nice staff, attentive and friendly. Food was pretty good. I had a delicious Caesar salad with a lot of shrimp. Hubby had a double decker BLT. Not very comfortable booth, but still a good lunch.

Called in my order yesterday and when I got there they didn't have the ticket or the soup that I ordered so I picked another soup and had wait for them to make it. Today I ordered three sandwiches they said it would be ready in 25 minutes. I show up in 30 minutes and it's not waiting for me. The gal takes my money and tells me it will be just a few minutes. By the time I got the food, it was an hour from the time I had originally called in my order. I will never go back there again.

If you thought this was just another family restaurant with better than average American comfort food you would be right, until they bring out one of their house made tamales, and then it all goes out the window I'm not sure just who the friendly lady from Jalisco Mexico is but she makes a mean tamale that's as good as any I had in my years growing up on the border The breakfasts are really really good The burgers and fries are really really good But the tamales are in a whole nother league and are worth every minute of the drive from Palmer to Big Lake The service was friendly, the place is clean and family restaurant kitschy, the prices are very fair, and it's a good place to eat even if you never try the tamales But you should
