Had been waiting to visit this location since opening and we seemed to have picked a perfect day to do so. We initially tried for Fathers day but the wait was just a tad over what we felt comfortable doing. Also as a recommendation to other people, this is a diner, which means it is not that large of a place and large parties will take time to be seated as the accommodations are a tad lackluster in that sense. Their food as always was as delicious as their arizona locations that we frequent throughout the year. I had the... read more

First of all the menu is so extensive, it was difficult to decide what I wanted between so many good choices. Please know that the portions are huge! We couldn't decide to we started with dessert.

It's an ok place. Some staff are really smiling, some discriminating. The portions are big. It balanced out, perhaps, by some other things, including, officially stated, longer than usual waiting times. Beware of some items being not price marked. The prices for those turn out about 50% more than you would expect.

I have fond memories of visiting this location on the outskirts of El Paso, when it was the Iron Skillet so I took the family out to change things up a bit. I found myself wanting to give a 4-star rating but unfortunately I think everybody enjoyed shopping in the truck stop store afterward, more than our actual meals. The hustle at the location was undeniable. The staff was working hard & moving to get diners served quickly to make room for those waiting for seats. The location is kinda cool with woodwork throughout that ti... read more
