Reviews of Loading Chute

We stayed at a nearby airbnb for Thanksgiving and decided to come by for brunch on Black Friday, Arrived at 11 am when they first opened and were the first guests in the house. Service was prompt and polite and food (we ordered onion rings, western burger, calamari and shrimp and Brussels sprouts) were all good. Nice option for another passing through town.

We came here with some friends that live in the area and they've been wanting to take us here for a while. When I pulled up, I saw a rustic building in a remote town with many vehicles parked on the road and parking lot, so I was hoping it was going to be good. Once inside, it is a really nice restaurant with a nice patio. Outside is kid friendly. The waiting staff was attentive to our needs. While we were waiting for our food, they dropped off home made bread that they make from their pizza oven. The bread is top notch. Then they dropped off my salad with honey mustard dressing on a cold glass plate. The salad was basic, but the dressing was so good. It made the salad really good. Then came the entre, the chicken and ribs. The chicken breast is very moist and seasoned well. They lightly coat it with their secret barbecue sauce. While the chicken was very delicious, the ribs stole the show. There is plenty of meat on them and it just falls off the bone. However they seasoned and drizzled it with barbecue sauce worked. They're the best ribs I've had in California. If I return... Scratch that. When I return, I will order a full order of ribs. I would also split my meal because it comes with so much food.

This place is a hidden gem. I got the filet mignon wrapped in bacon. It was cooked perfectly medium rare. The rice pilaf was good and there was a nice portion of grilled vegetables that came with it. The meal also comes with a huge basket of delicious bread and fresh butter. The dessert was this monstrosity of a slice. It's called the grasshopper- mint chip ice cream with a crushed Oreo base.

This place is definitely off the beaten path In a little out-of-the-way town. Food is plentiful and amazing. Chicken breast tender and juicy. Order the onion rings and expect to get a big pile of them. The rib eye steak was tender and cooked perfectly The waitresses truly hustle and are friendly courteous and efficient. Favorite hang out with lots of the locals everybody knows everybody kind of place.

I have family that lives nearby and we frequent this place. I have not had a bad meal here and I have had most of whats on the menu. Steaks are cooked to your liking, drinks are fabulous, staff is friendly and owner is on site cooking and talking to the people. This is one of the only places in the area and a little hard to find but get there if you can. No disappointments at all. I have been coming here for years now. My grandfather lives up the street from the chute and loves coming on to see his old friend Dave. Food is still good and dave cooks it on the open pit for everyone to see.
