Its a small town cafe with a small town feel. The menu is all homemade items and made fresh daily. Our soups, pies and scones are the specialties. We have recently added some vegetarian dishes to the menu.

I was there with my family 1/4/2024 after staying at the Desert Inn, we stopped in Salina from our trip back home to CA from KS.
The food here was very good, our waitress was really nice and patient, she was able to answer questions and never hesitated to look and see what they had. Coffee was great, we had 2 French dips, 2 soups, 2 biscuits and gravy, 1 scone (delicious) and one cinnamon bun/roll... all were delicious and with a family of four with 4 drinks out total was $57.00. That's a great deal.
The ambiance in the building is relaxed, this place has been around since the 1800's but moms has been around since 1926, 98yrs of serving food to the locals and the tourists that come by. (It has a little info on the front of the menu)
This was my first trip on I70 and my first time in Utah, I can definitely say I can't wait to go back.
Thank you for a great lunch and small town hospitality. We will be back to visit again.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Mike A.Orem, UT176Dec 17, 2023
Chicken fried steak was good, but small.
Fries were greasy and under cooked.
Vegetables clearly came from a can.
Friendly staff, high prices for what you get.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 330147May 5, 2024
The service was great, although we didn't catch our servers name! Food was delicious and all plates were cleared, with the exception of the scone. We set out on a rainy day for my mom's birthday. She was satisfied!

The halibut was paper thin and very greasy. The French dip had one layer of sliced beef and no cheese as I had requested. The fries, although fresh, were limp and greasy. The oil must not have been hot enough and they weren't cooked long enough. The soup was cold. There was nothing special about the ice tea but the ice melted in less than 5 minutes. The scone was greasy but did taste good even though this small country town provided their honey butter in packets. While IT was not homemade... the cherry pie was and it was the best thing there.
For a tab of $59.00 before tip for 4 people we were unhappy and unsatisfied when we left.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Marti V.TX, TX013May 9, 2024
Mmmmmmm the special was roast beef and mashed potatoes and chicken noodle soup. Everything was hot fresh and delicious! Our waitress was friendly efficient and helpful. She came by to see if we were ready for dessert......they have homemade pie y'all!!! Even if I'd stuffed myself which I didn't because we decided to share our meal today, I had to try the pie. She suggested the blueberry sour cream pie... never had it, yes please. Out of this world. When we come through next time we will be eating here again. On top of everything delicious the building itself has a ton of history as well as the business. The clippings of news stories just light me up. Got to read them all. This place is an all around good stop.

The service was great, very friendly staff! I had a BLT is was ok but their fries were awesome! My husband had a roast beef sandwich he said it was ok, it would have been better hot, it came out room temperature, we each had pie, he had pecan and it was yummy I had cherry and it was delicious. I would say the highlight of or cost was the friendly staff and the homemade pies!

This is the real deal in terms of being a small cafe in a small town that's not really close to anything. But we had a very good lunch here when we stopped in during a road trip.
The service was prompt and friendly, and attentive throughout our lunch. I had the Buffalo Chicken Wrap, which was good. The menu said the chicken would be breaded, but I just got grilled chicken. Still, the ingredients were fresh and tasty. The sauce wasn't as spicy as I thought it would be, but still good.
My wife had the Chef's Salad, which was a bit on the small side so I would think of it as more of an appetizer or side dish rather than a meal. Ingredients were really good though.
I was also tempted (successfully) by the Apple Pie, which was one of several pies on display at the diner counter. It was very tasty, though slightly dry.
We were happy with our lunch and with the service. It felt like a place that's been there forever, with many of the employees having been there forever. I'm sure it is a favorite with the locals, and we enjoyed being welcomed for a good lunch in a small town as we made our way across Utah.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Chantel Q.Irvine, CA268168522Oct 5, 2023
We loved this soup. I think we ordered 3 cups of it!! I was also just so happy to see fry sauce back on the table, I had to take a picture of it. Service was pretty good, and the cafe makes you feel like you take a step back in time. We will definitely be stopping again when traveling from California to Utah.

A decent choice for out of towers for dinner. It was close to our Air B&B which was convenient.
The welcome greeting was warm and friendly. We got to choose our own table. There are two rooms you can dine in. The back room was unoccupied so we walked through the doorway to the front.
It soon filled up and bigger groups sat in the other room. Definitely the minority I'm glad we got some friendly smiles.
They serve a very nice delicious appetizing plated salad that comes with your meal. The person who made the salad had each ingredient compartmentalized in a circular pattern around the plate; beets, peas, cheese, lettuce, etc. The dressing was good too.
They had several cakes on the counter but with COVID still present and guests and employees not wearing masks, it seemed unusual for the cakes to be out on the counter uncovered.
The cookies looked fantastic and were covered so two left with us to be eaten the next day as we continued on our road trip.
Doc had trout, hubs had hamburger steak and I had veal.
I was kind of disappointed it seemed like a processed patty rather than a thin flat piece of breaded veal that I've had before.
They ran out of baked potatoes so one of us took mashed potato and I took wild rice which sorry but tasted like boxed rice pilaf. My cut green beans tasted like canned beans. I chucked it up to my memory of veal cutlet decades ago was a good one.Helpful 12Thanks 0Love this 6Oh no 0
