Frosty Drive Inn — Restaurant in Porterville

As a new to me restaurant, I was curious as to what looked good from the menu. I tried a spicy chicken sandwich which just seemed similar to another common spicy chicken sandwich just slightly bigger, but tasted fine. The item I was extremely interested in was their chili cheese pastrami fries. I was pretty disappointed about what I actually received, due to the fact I ordered a large and felt like I barely got more than a small, the pastrami was next to non existent, and price for what I received seemed pretty outrageous. The atmosphere was pleasant and the staff was really friendly, and willing to actually answer my questions. Also when I forgot my drink they actually reminded me about it. All in all if I return I'll make sure to try something different from their menu and edit my review...

They are now open. For 70yrs this was Coleman's Delight. (56 yrs it was beside Porterville High School.) They've carried over the original Coleman's Steak Sandwich & Flour Tacos. That's a staple for Ptown so I'm happy. I'm sad to report that the original Coleman's Onion Rings were not. Whyyyyyyyyy???? For 70yrs everyone knew what a Coleman's Onion Ring was. These onion rings are now panko breaded. That tells me they're not hand made anymore and bought frozen or they changed the recipe. They also will not continue the Original Coleman's Sauce on the burgers. (you had to ask for it). I'm kinda sad that Coleman's is now history but glad they carried over some items. Bring back the Original Coleman's Battered Onion Rings, and you get...

I drove by the bright orange corner building and I noticed the big Coca-Cola sign that says 99c. I think that sign was for me because I am always in search for an ice cold Diet Coke. I drove up, a nice staff took my order. I went to the window, I paid. The staff brought out my diet coke but was still working on my crinkled cut French fries. I took a sip and I was amazed how delicious it was. The ice is small and crushed and the taste of the Diet Coke made my day. The nice staff brought out my fries and I told her right away that I loved the Diet Coke and I am coming back. Frosty Drive-In, please keep the Diet Coke the same way, same taste. I give this place a A+. Great job, everyone! See...
