Dinky Diner — Restaurant in Tonopah

We got here half hour til lunch so we took our drinks to go an came back about noon at their lunchtime, seated ourselves, an placed our orders about 12:10. We sat an waited while figuring our next place to go checked the time an it was about 12:45 our waitress came over to check on us an we said in a playful cheery voice, "good we're really hungry!" An in return we got sarcastic sass like she was annoyed with us saying "well there are orders ahead of yours" we weren't mad or pushy in our statement. We finally got our food about 1:15. I ordered a chili cheese burger (my burger was burned) an onion rings (also burnt). My wife ordered a chicken sandwich (tasted like it had been cooked with my onion rings, so instead of a chicken taste it tasted like pure onions), she ordered fries with hers an they were cold tasted like they'd been reheated for the third time. As soon as we got in the car my wife threw up her entire lunch. We're very disappointed an wished we'd left before we...

I really hate leaving bad reviews, but I must. This is the only place in Goldfield to get breakfast or lunch. The other place closed. Don't know what happened to all the good reviews I saw before coming here! There were only 4 customers in the dining area. Service was super slow, like the cook(s) didn't know how. Food was way overpriced. Potatoes were ok, but the rest of it was awful. Disappointed. Goldfield is a fun place to visit but recommend eating in Tonopah and buy some food there to bring to Goldfield. There isn't any place to buy any groceries in Goldfield. There are two fun bars that serve bar snacks in the evening. We loved Goldfield, but will eat in Tonopah from now on. And remember, no gas in Goldfield so be sure to fill your tank. Looks like there are charging stations at the Visitor Center but make sure they...
