“This place is a hidden gem. They make the very best pork carnitas tacos as well as beef cheek tacos. They never disappoint with their tacos. Even my very picky teenage daughters get excited when I tell them we’re getting ‘Tex Mex’ takeout. This place makes our heartshappy.”

“I stopped at the Jacksons in Parma a few weeks ago. The young gentleman behind the counter (I don't know what his name was), nice looking, big smile, and wearing a hat, was so polite with such a nice demeanor. It's refreshing to see a younger person with such great work ethics. Please extend my sincere appreciation to this young man. I will be back!”

“I received wonderful service from Lori. I was stranded very early in the morning and barely made it to this place, in a rental, thousands of miles away from home. Lori was a blessing. She let me warm up and clean up after a long drive. I was able to get gas and some food at 4am, in what seemed like a ghost town. For something called "the hammer store" it was surprisingly well kept and cozy. Everything was clean and well stocked. I was able to find everything I needed and more. Lori gave me directions and basically helped me out as much as anyone ever could. Thanks very much, this place is awesome!”

“Nice little Country Store. The employees are really friendly and the hot deli food was actually very tasty! The gas prices were the lowest we had come across in the valley also so that was a nice plus!”

“The remodel is great. Staff are all super friendly. They no longer charge for parking. I fueled here because I appreciate that they’ve taken all the Truck Parking Club signs down.”
