Best hometown cooking in the whole state of Utah and the Montecristo's are out of this world just wish they were open for Dinner meal too!

My granddaughter and I were passing through on our way to the State Horseshoe Pitching tournament in Panguitch and searched for the best breakfast spot. This didn't disappoint. Not only was the food awesome but the staff were very friendly and made the experience well worth the stop. My granddaughter said the pancakes were very fluffy and tasty and the biscuits and gravy were definitely a good choice. Thanks all for a great breakfast.

Such an awesome local diner. Food was delicious. I had the Bambi burger with home made chips. I inhaled it. My wife loved her Ruben too. The staff was super friendly also. Even to us out of towners. lol It's open breakfast and lunch. If you are driving up or down that I-15 do yourself a favor and stop in.

This is a five star local diner by any definition you're looking to find. Over 80 year old diner. We got the clubhouse and the chef salad. First, the clubhouse was so fresh and lovely. A lot of times these sandwiches are coated in way too much mayo and the bacon isn't fresh. On this one the sandwich was just perfect. It was fresh and the veggies were just on point. One of the loveliest sandwiches I've had in a long time. The chef salad was huge. Tons of meat and cheese and the lettuce was fresh. I couldn't have liked it more. Well done. The service was polite and amazing. Could not have been better. The ambience is a small local town diner that is just super lovely. If you're in the area come this way!

Best little hole in the wall diner! We are locals and love this place! Yummy food! Our fav order is the monte cristo but the cottage fries with gravy is 10/10! Stop here for breakfast and lunch!

The Food: If there was a French Dip in this state I would drive three hours for, it would be here, but not just for the sandwich! They make their own potato chips. They are served hot and perfectly salty. When I asked for Fry Sauce (yes, I'm a Utahn). The cook quickly whipped up something that was part cocktail sauce and part Fry Sauce... OMG that's my new favorite version of the sauce Utah is famous for. My friends got burgers, some breakfasts, and other items on them menu. Every single one of us enjoyed what we got. The Service: Because this place was so busy we sat as a group at the counter. I will probably never sit in the booths and tables after this because the staff kept us laughing the whole time. They were so much fun and eager to please. Honestly I had this review sitting in my notepad for too long, we went there last fall, and it's spring as of this writing. I owe this staff their amazing review much sooner than this. The Restaurant: I'm not going to lie, when we drove past this place on the way to the creamery, we giggled about the name. Driving through small towns there can be real hit or miss diners. This place is a hit! Fortunately for El Bambi on this day the Creamery was closed... So we did note as we rolled past this little gem, that there were a lot of cars in front, and on the side, and in back, pretty busy. It probably hasn't been remodeled since it was built, I'm guessing in the 60's, but it's clean and nostalgic. Summary: I know the creamery is a new DESTINATION place in Beaver, but folks, get your Cheese and ice cream there, "get your diner on" and El Bambi. Yes yes yes, there's food over at the other place, but it's the same food you're gonna get anywhere else. El Bambi is going to fill you up with happiness and joy, and well, good greasy yumminess.

Highly recommended by my husband and me. Found it by looking for a gas station after we took the wrong exit off 15N. Breakfast was served quickly and was delicious. Glad we made a wrong turn and decided to find a gas station there instead of making a u turn to get back on 15. It was only a few miles off track for gas and a good meal. Pleasant surprise.

Great diner. Homemade bread and burger buns. Super friendly and prompt service. Perfect road trip lunch spot!

Great little cafe right off the 15 in Beaver. We got breakfast here while staying up at Eagle Point Resort - which is about a 30ish min drive to town. The service was great, coffee and water was always full. The food was great too! The Bambi meal looked heavy but was delicious and very comparable to a eggs Benedict. The omelet was delicious with a good amount of flavor. Both meals came with toast and jelly which was a good touch.
