Morning Thunder - Quincy, California

Todd Barclay

They can't all be perfect. I brought my family here for a Friday lunch. This was probably my 3rd time here. The first 2 were uneventful. The decor is nice. The building looks old and rustic on the outside. There are about 12 tables inside and 4 or 5 outside on the patio. Parking is very limited, and you may need to walk a little. About 4 waitresses were working. If something could go wrong with a meal....it happened to us. Our party of 3 was seated at the largest table that seats about 8. We were given our menus...and we waited for the waitress to return. 3 other tables inside were seated ( including 3 people at the other end of our table that the waitress knew ) after us and they were given drinks and had their orders taken ahead of us. When she took our order, she didn't even ask if we would like drinks as she started to walk away. I asked to order drinks. No drinks were brought before the meal. By the time we got our meal, 2 of the tables finished eating and had left. I had to go to the counter and ask for our drinks. When our drinks were finally brought it was not correct. The only time a waitress came back was to set the bill on the table and walk away after being chatty with the people at the other end of our table who had also finished eating. I had to check a make sure we were not overcharged for extra drinks. The final upset was the moment I found a long hair in my quesadilla. I paid the bill and we left without finishing. I think there needs to be some training for the waitresses in hospitality to the customers. A hair I can overlook, At least ask if your patrons are satisfied, or need more to drink. It will probably be a long time before we return here. I hope the staff can do better.

Fantastic breakfast place in Quincy.
The Huevos rancheros with Chorizo was outstanding. Omelets are also top notch.
Great service and coffee

To be completely honest, I was tired, cold and starved. But the service was just awesome and the food was hot, tasty and plentiful. We brought about 12 riders and they were kind and welcoming.

Thank you

Stopped to have a bite on my through town. Girls were friendly. Omelette was good but a bit too much. I got the salmon, crab would have been better if they had it. (My favorite). I would stop again if I ever had back through the area.

Service was terrible & slow despite being nearly empty. Food was more disappointing.
There must have been a new cook in the kitchen. My salad had two slices of zucchini on it (I'm assuming it was supposed to be cucumber ?)
I certainly could have left without paying (and maybe should have) due to lack of service.
I'm glad I tried it so I know not to come back.

This place used to be the best. I went in after not being here for two years. The biscuits and gravy are, or at least were the best. This time I ordered the nachos. The chips obviously came from a bag. The beans were from a can. The onion and tomatoes were chopped into large chunks. It would have been a lot better experience me, the diner, if the veggies were smaller and spread more throughout the dish. This eatery had always been known for its large portions. I was not impressed with the size or price of the nachos. $13 for vegetarian nachos. Nothing else. The only thing that came on the side was a ramekin of thin, flavorless salsa. Everything on the menu has gotten a lot more expensive.

Neat cafe with friendly staff and a wide selection on the menu. Food is well prepared and presented. Very healthy and appetizing. Steady streams of customers and price very reasonable. My favorite restaurant on this roadtrip.

Well organized, busy cafe with welcoming small town happy, frenetic vibes and shockingly good service considering how busy it is. Old favorites as well as creative tex mex. Coffee solid. The management really knows what they are doing. Terrific chicken fried steak.
