The food here is amazing and especially their sausage burrito. Coming from Denver, I've had some amazing green chile in the surrounding areas but this burrito was one of the best ones I've had for a local spot and I even had the burrito, El Diablo style which is green chile and country gravy. I highly recommend it as well as the cinnamon roll which was bigger than my damn hand the whole thing was very soft and tasted pure!. Overall the food is great and the service was great as well!

LOVE this spot. Its me and my husbands favorite brunch date spot. The two gentleman running the show now have really gotten things in good shape. The service is great and the food is fire. The portion sizes and prices are spot on!!! I've never had a bad meal here!!!! The giant cinnamon rolls never dissapoint. The fresh jelly, yum. Giant fluffiest pancakes in town!!!!! Their discounted/small plates menu is perfect for seniors or folks who just can't eat a ton!!!!!! Thanks guys!!!

Stopped in for brunch with my brother and sat at the bar. What a lovely family establishment. The chef makes everything from scratch and uses quality, clean ingredients! I have a milk allergy and they made me a great dairy free, hearty meal. The jams are all made from scratch with real fruit and no added sugar. So sweet and the flavors! I bought a jar of the peach jam for the road. My brother had the cinnamon roll and said it was insanely good.

Stumbled upon this gem while traveling. The food was amazing. The prices are extremely reasonable. Staff is friendly, courteous, and efficient. I wish it were closer to home!

Nestled in the A&M Truck stop off the i70 in Fruita, CO, lies a hidden gem that only the locals have long cherished—but now, the world should take note. This family-owned and operated eatery embodies hospitality and an unwavering commitment to quality, making every meal a true labor of love. Their garden omelette is, without question, one of the best I’ve ever had—fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Paired with their daily-baked biscuit, it becomes an experience rather than just a meal. The biscuit, golden and crispy around the edges yet perfectly soft at the core, is elevated even further with a generous dollop of hand-whipped butter. One word: divine. If you ever find yourself traveling on I-70, whether heading to Denver or Las Vegas, make it a point to stop by for breakfast or lunch. This spot offers some of the finest American comfort food you’ll ever savor. Just remember, they’re open daily from 6 AM to 2 PM—so plan accordingly.

Fast, friendly service, and delicious huge portioned breakfast food. I tried the bacon supreme burrito (think it was called that -17.99) with green chili -held the sausage gravy. It was fantastic, hot fresh, and huge. Comes with lots of choices for a side including 2 huge pancakes OR the CINNAMON bun plus other choices. Don't pass on the cinnamon bun. Only ate half, but included a pic of the deliciousness. Excited to go back and support them.

And interest by spot attached to a gas station convenience store. I might not take a prom date here but I’d take my mom. Good solid food with fantastic service. And a sticky bun was basically handed to me walking out. I guess it was part of the meal but they had me with a great hobo plate of all sorts of stuff. Eggs, ham, onions, green peppers and a few other things. Stop by for a good meal and some gas!
