A classic hamburger joint, this eatery has been at the same location for years. Nothing's fancy, and seating ranges from a cluster of sit-down benches to chest-high counters where you munch standing up. Order your burger of choice at the rear counter, and let the staff know what you want on it (lettuce, tomato, pickles, etc.). When it's ready, they'll call you, and you're free to dig in. French fries, onion rings, fried mushrooms, and a few other morsels are available as side dishes. If you're not into burgers, check out the hot dogs and chicken sandwiches. A few desserts make sure your sweet tooth is satisfied.

Authenticity reigns at this small eatery, located west of town near the UPRR railroad yard. Mexican fare served at the family-owned and -operated place includes fresh tacos, gorditas, burritos, and tortas (along with great breakfast tacos). In fact, the menu is quite impressive for such a small place. Portions are generous, and service is quick. The staff speaks little English, though, so bone up on your Spanish before you stop by. Except for an outdoor table, there's no seating either – only take-out business. Simply place your order at the window and wait to pick it up. You'll never miss the ambience with such great, quick food.

Since opening in 1962, this family restaurant has been dishing out delicious breakfast plates with great frequency. Although other options are available, you would be remiss not to try the "dutch babies," small, tangy, sweet pancakes topped with powdered sugar, lemon, and butter.
