“ Stopped by on our way back to Oklahoma. It is a restaurant in a truck stop. The food was good. My plate was overflowing, but my husband’s was lacking. I would go again if we were in the area, however would go somewhere else to use the restroom first. It was clean as far as trash and such, but very grungy. The chip basket in the photo was full, I just forgot to take a picture when it first came. ”
“ A very simple, and classic restaurant at the One9 off I-40 Historic Route 66. Also I had a chance to talk to the owner, she a very nice lady. Definitely would recommend. ”
“ I had a problem with an order that I requested that they don't overcook the egg. Well I admit fault for not checking the order before I left when I got down the road I discovered that I was unable to eat the sandwich because it was extremely overcooked. I called immediately what was told I needed to speak with the manager the next day. When I tried to call the next day I was placed on hold for 20 minutes and no one ever came back to the phone. Because this location is on my regular route and I have the space in my truck I went ahead and kept the sandwich and brought it back in. The girls working went ahead and called the manager at home. It turns out she was aware of the situation. They were able to get my sandwich remade and now it is absolutely wonderful. The food here is always good but after this last experience I do have to recommend if you do carry out check your order before you leave to be sure it's correct and made to your liking. Other than being left to sit on hold I don't have any complaints about the staff. The people who work here are always incredibly sweet. I stopped at the truck stop every week during my regular route. I plan to continue placing orders although I will exercise more caution in the future and check my order before I leave. That will keep myself happy knowing that I have what is correct and the staff happy knowing that they don't have to fix a problem days later. ”
“ The green chili cheese burger is really good. The only thing is it's so juicy I had to finish it by using a fork! Half way through I couldn't pick it up. DELICIOUS! ”
“ This was the best TexMex food we've ever had. Everything had so much authentic homemade flavor. I really loved the refried beans, I could have gotten a to go container just of that. The shredded chicken enchiladas were savory and I liked the flavor of the corn tortillas. The chicken taco was crispy and fresh. The chili relleno was perfectly cooked to perfection with a nice relleno sauce on top with peppers and spices in it. The salsa was perfect and completely homemade, it actually had good spice to it which is so hard to find. Even the chips were seasoned, I've never seen this and I loved it. Every time we drive through we're going to make a point to stop here. The restaurant dining area is very nice with indoor and outdoor seating. Plenty of semi truck parking and even 2 showers that are available. ”
