    Great food, vibes and people! Cheeseburger was bomb, smoked pork green chili so good and the fish sandwich as a wrap was a great suggestion! Definitely will be back next time go down to Salida! Bonus points if you're a widespread panic fan, but his is totally your spot!

    I would give this six stars if I could! Place was busy on a Sat afternoon, but still got a table to dine in. Burger was grilled perfectly, and delicious, and the french fries were experts seasoned and piping hot! Person working the counter and running food was so friendly and happy, and the owner chit-chatted with people and seemed to know lots of folks by first name. Highly recommend!

    Me and the wife went out on the motorcycle with no particular plan and ended up here 2 hours later. I regret that I do not remember the owners name but he was very nice and we had several conversations about motorcycles and business as I am also a business owner. It’s small but the Atmosphere is awesome, the food is absolutely delicious and if you are in the area definitely give it a try. We would gladly ride 2 hours there for lunch anytime!!!
