"Wow, a real gem of a drive in, Big Jim's serves up some fantastic burgers for hungry travelers. On all of my road trips I try to stop at the places that aren't franchises, since the food is almost always better in places like this, and Big Jim's is at the top of my list. A little pricey, but well worth the extra money for food that actually makes you feel good. Oh, and their real hard ice cream shakes are wonderful. Vegetarian options: I didn't try any, but they have veggie burger options on the menu, and some really good cod burgers for people just avoiding meat. Kid-friendliness: It's a burger place with loads of ice cream options. Yes, it's kid-friendly. Service: Take out Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Sweet Potato Fries, Fish, Burger Parking space: Plenty of parking Parking options: Free parking lot"

"It's one of those 1 in every 20 restaurant experiences. There are still places like this, but they are far and few between. Super cool twenties decor, but what really takes the cake here is the quality and flavor of the amazing amazing amazing food. I mean holy cow their clam chowder is amongst the top 3 I've ever tried in the United States, the truffle oil French fries almost made me cancel my trip, the shaved prime rib Philly was to die for and even the burger was more like something you would get at the Ritz Carlton not The Dalles Oregon. Someone in the kitchen really knows how to cook. It will be the ONLY restaurant I eat at everytime I travel to Montana. Wish I wasn't in a hurry to get back on the road because I can't wait to try their dessert on my next pass through. Staff was also very knowledgeable on the menu items. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $10–20"

"When we arrived, the young waiter did not acknowledge us for almost ten minutes, despite other staff members suggesting where we should be seated. Once we were finally seated, he ignored us again for another fifteen minutes until another employee had to direct him to our table. After we managed to place our order, he confirmed it, and we agreed it was correct. However, we continued to wait without receiving any soup that was supposed to come with our meals. Eventually, a waitstaff member who was assisting brought my wife her soup, and when she asked about our two egg flower soups, she was given those as well. Meanwhile, the young waiter was occupied taking another table's order and told them they could just check the menu for side orders they wanted. He seemed to be in a bad mood. We waited another thirty minutes, and my family shared my wife’s meal while we continued to wait for mine. When the waiter finally walked by, I asked him about my order (the number 12), and he simply said it hadn't been ordered. I told him I had indeed ordered it, and he replied that he would go put it in. In frustration, I told him not to worry about it, and he walked away. By this time, our three kids were restless, and we didn’t want to wait any longer. I asked another waitress for our check, and she could sense something was wrong. When we received the bill, it included the number 12, which had already been marked as paid. As we were in the middle of the restaurant, the waiter suddenly announced that my food was ready. I explained to him that I no longer wanted it, but he began conversing with his coworkers in their language, so we decided to leave. I have never been so disappointed in one of my favorite local restaurants. My family and I used to come here once or twice a month, and it saddens me to say we will not be returning."

"We had a great experience at this charming restaurant located in an old church on a peaceful street. The menu clearly highlights vegan options, making it easy to choose. We decided to sit on the patio on a sunny Saturday, where we enjoyed live music and a relaxed brunch with coffee. Both the patio and interior dining areas were spacious and inviting. The restaurant caters well to vegans, offering a variety of food options, smoothies, and non-dairy milk for coffee. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. Although this is not a fast-food establishment, they do offer takeout options. We recommend taking your time to soak in the atmosphere. Our favorite dishes were the Harvest Bagel, "Healthful Porridge," Avo Toast, and a delicious smoothie."

"I’ve discovered a new comfort food: Enchilada a La Crema has been exactly what I’ve been craving lately. I’ve been coming to this restaurant since I was a child, and now in my late 20s, I can confidently say they have always maintained their quality and friendliness. It’s always at the top of my list when people ask where to go for dinner."
