All American Eatery — Restaurant in Carson City

I could swear I wrote a review on this place once. It's weird to find it gone now. I think it was something about liking the food, but how it frequently had me running for their bathrooms after a meal (which suggested a dirty kitchen most likely). I think they've fixed this issue!

Well, even if my review was somehow removed, I came back to share some good news!

Today, there were two guys working the counter. They weren't in uniforms or anything like I'd expect, but they bustled. They worked hard and quickly. New Management, I wonder. Anyway, thing is, the one of these two that served me, was AMAZING.

He was beyond friendly. I haven't experienced such awesome service like... anywhere in Carson City outside our KFC (that staff rocks). This guy went above and beyond! He made sure everything was perfect, got me sauteed onions on my French Dip (yummy!), refilled my drink like four times, a couple without asking and brought extra lemon slices for my tea.

The sandwich was delicious, the portion and quality of the meat in it was generous. All was as it should be! (I've had similar quality before from them, but I left today with a big smile)

I had a lovely slice of Apple Pie. This time I wasn't told they were out. It was fabulous, the perfect way to cap off an already great meal. I drank the rest of the au jus from the cup. I believe that they probably do a mixture of coffee and pan drippings to produce the savory, bitter flavor. I'll have to try that. (Did you know that that's how you make a southern red eye gravy with ham?)

For an absolutely excellent service and meal, I give them 10/10 personally and 5 stars today. I tipped 50% for working so hard. I am satisfied.

Update: They're still on a roll! Their turkey is smoked. If they offered a BBQ turkey platter, it would be some of the best BBQ in town! Another excellent meal! I'm stuffed to the limit!

Yet Another Update: I tried their Salisbury Steak meal (the All American Meal) for the first time today—6/7/2025—and I have to say, I really enjoyed it. (Sadly I was too far into eating it to take any pictures! I'm very sorry for that!!!)

It’s worth noting that their Salisbury Steak isn’t a traditional Salisbury Steak. It’s actually better. Typical Salisbury Steak is around 50% filler, but these patties tasted like 100% decent-quality hamburger. I didn’t notice any breadcrumbs, and there was no pork that I could detect.

The gravy was delicious, clearly wine-based and loaded with thin-sliced mushrooms. The mashed potatoes were a little lumpy, which actually made them better. That tells me they’re not using instant! The broccoli had a perfect texture, not overcooked or rubbery. And the dinner roll was great. I used it to sop up the gravy at both the beginning and the end of the meal and discovered yet another thing I like...

Review for All American Eatery in Carson City Nugget. I was pleasantly surprised by this delightful eatery. I had been there years ago and had clam chowder in a bread bowl which i remember was good, so i decided to go back. They've remodeled since then and don't have the bread bowl anymore, but i had other foods. I went 3 times in a matter of a few days and each time brought more people with me, who like me love the place. The first thing i want to mention is the fastest service that I've ever seen anywhere. The waiter, Jesse that we had 2 times was excellent and on top of things. The waitress we had the 1st time was good to. They have Mountain Dew, which if you follow my reviews, then you know that's a plus for me. The first time there i had the prime rib, which is something i love to eat everywhere. It was a perfect medium rare and it tasted excellent. The 2nd time was for dessert. They have sundaes and rootbeer floats in a 32 oz mug for only $4.95. The 3rd time i had the chefs salad. Ive never seen one that has more meat then lettuce. They also have thousand island dressing which is another big plus for me, since thats the main dressing that i use. I also tried my wifes fish and chips. The fish was excellent. Not greasy, but tender and flaky. Prob the best that I've ever tasted. They have steak fries which is...
