Do the words "Hole in the wall" mean anything to you? Well, this little place exemplifies the saying. This is not your run-of-the-mill restaurant. It's not your usual gas station, truck stop, or convenience store, either. It's definitely one of those back street hole-in-the-wall locations that checks all of the boxes. While being a great place for the backbone of America (truck drivers) to fuel up, grab a shower, spend a few minutes stretching their legs, or any of a number of other activities (sleep, anyone? Hahaha!!), it's also a great place for food. People don't often like to associate truck stops with good food but this place proves them all wrong. It has some of the best thinly sliced tri-tip roast I've had since I last had my dad's - and he was a great grillmaster! This tri-tip is cooked properly on a pit over hot coals. It gets a lovely bark and a bit of a smoke ring and is so tender and juicy. They pile it high on tortillas to make the best tri-tip burritos ever. They do not skimp on the meat! The rest of the ingredients of the burritos don't disappoint, either. The beans are flavorful, the rice is tender, and the salsa is really nice. I like ordering my burrito with extra cilantro and sour cream and they're happy to accommodate. They have other things they offer, too, but I'm a sucker for those tri-tip burritos so that's my go-to. They're inexpensive to order and nicely filling. Pair with a nice soda, coffee, or tea, and maybe grab one of their strawberries and cream desserts from the cold case by the food counter. Be sure to thank a driver while you're there. They're the backbone of America. WIthout them, we wouldn't have any of the things we all need to meet our daily needs. Then when you're done eating, go tell the food counter staff what a tasty meal they made. They'll appreciate it!

Food was great people inside were very nice but my company card was fraud alerted and then wouldn't work had to use my bank card and a few hours later it's getting blown up with apple charges and a bunch of other stuff not saying the employees have anything to do with it but who knows ?♂️ but their machines definitely must be tapped keep an eye on your bank card or just use cash

This is one of those amazing Yelp finds. Truck stop burritos. Hell yes. I'll keep this short, do not miss out on the TriTip burritos. They are simple, and simply amazing. The red salsa is hot, the verde salsa is not, both are amazing. So good, don't miss out!!!

This place is a hidden gem of fresh food options and I highly recommend it if you ever find yourself in this area. Great overall value and a much better alternative than the fast food alternatives if you are looking for a quick bite off Hwy 101 in Salinas.

DO NOT GO HERE FOR RV WASH! I looked online to verify that they had packages for recreational vehicles and truck and trailer washes. After waiting in line for almost 1/2 hour, we were told by one staff to go inside and pay and when I got out and went to go pay, I was told by another staff that they will only do washes by appointment. So I went inside and asked the clerk which answer was correct. They said you need an appointment. I asked if I could make an appointment and they said no, you have to make it the day before. I asked how was I supposed to make an appointment when I'm on the way home on vacation and wouldn't have know what time I'd pass there? They said said then too bad, that's not our problem. We drove past a Love's under construction. Hopefully they take all their business and they get a taste of Justice for being rude. It would have been a quick and easy $80 for them! Hopefully another RVer looking for a wash is helped by this.

Their website says that they have showers but better call on the phone to see if there is any truth to that I was told the opposite

They are the only truck stop that has the best Mexican food. Every time we go by, we also get the strawberries and cream. Huge portions, by the way!

There are more personal cars parked here. Locals saving their spot. Absolutely no where to park here. Wanted to eat but decided not worth it. Beautiful place 2 yrs ago. Will not spend any money here

No more free parking and if you want to wash your truck you need to make an appointment first. The food is great though
