We had 20 in our group, so called first thing on a Sun morning to make a reservation. The person said ok & took the name. When we got there, they said they don't make reservations on the weekends. They got a long table together fairly quickly, so it wasn't a big deal. The only drawback was our table was in a corner so the people against the wall could not get out and mingle with any of our other group other than who was sitting next to them. It would have been nice to be able to get up and chat with each other while we were waiting for the food. The food was good, and we were served fairly quickly after seated.

Always busy! Worth any wait time! Cat head biscuits! Cinnamon rolls as big as a dinner plate! Can order cinnamon rolls in drive thru! Staff super friendly. Have good local hot sauces. Had Biscuit gravy, eggs, bacon and hash browns. Empty plate at end!

I’ve been a business owner for about 38 years. I can’t tell you how much I love to see other businesses that are highly successful! Wow! This place never ceases to amaze me. Mark B took care of me today serving me up an excellent BLT sandwich and a salad with blue cheese... (you gotta try their blue cheese dressing, OMG!) Miss Jade entertained me with a unique doodle for my new brand!! — If you haven’t been in, I highly recommend you check this place out. Great friends, great conversation, great locals, great food! Thanks gang!! Keep up the great work!

My first time here was on March 3rd, 2025. It was AMAZING in every aspect! We are definitely coming back, and next time I intend to walk around and check out all the cool decor they have. This first time was on my birthday, so the owner even sang to me in Spanish...it was beautiful. Everyone there was so kind and helpful. I highly recommend going there, if you haven't been yet.

The food was amazing. One of our sides was a cinnamon roll. It was tue size of the plate, and we had that for breakfast the next day. So good and will definitely have to stop by the re next year.

Hit up the drive-thru this morning and got a green screen for 10. Quantity of food for the price can't be beat. Picture doesn't do the food justice. It's warm, good, big portion, fast and friendly service. Lots of other options for the drive-thru menu and it's a different choice from the fast food.

Met a friend here for breakfast in late June. The entire menu is fabulous, with all sorts of yummy breakfast items like seasonal fruit crepes, breakfast burritos, skillets, omelettes, biscuits and gravy, giant cinnamon rolls, and of course, pancakes! During peach season in August, their peach crepes are unmatched by any place else in the country! I say this because I've had them in multiple states and no one's are as good! They also have sandwiches, burgers and salads and their open-face turkey sandwich is to die for! This restaurant was spotlessly clean, the bathroom well taken care of and the staff super friendly. There is also a claw toy machine, and a business card area with local information for newcomers. This restaurant is located right next to Dos Hombres in Clifton, Colorado. If you want a fabulous breakfast, close to the l-70 exit, eat like a local at the family owned and operated Starvin Arvin's, in Clifton!

This review is just for the drive through aspect of the restaurant. I was extremely happy with my first experience through drive through!!! Fast, friendly, and cheap. I got a breakfast burrito for 5.50 at 7am and was back on the road before 7:10am!!! Super tasty and great size (I’m a BIG guy). Definitely gonna come through a lot more!!!
