Everyone was so nice and pleasant. We will be eating there alot while we are in town. Can't wait to try the blackberry cobbler because they were out. My new favorite place. Not to mention the great view of Mt Shasta!

As a foodie I regretted only being able to eat one meal (well, half). Nestled in a classic looking motel, pot roast better than grandmas. Throw in a couple of nice wines and homemade cobbler, and I’m already planning my next trip so I can pass thru Weed and eat at this little cafe again. Plenty of room to park my truck and horse trailer across the street. If you have a choice, choose Hi-Lo Cafe! You will be very glad you did.

Had the Reuben sandwich and 12 oz Burger. Fries were ok. Friendly service.

I think the waitresses and kitchen staff were having a rough night. I noticed it was a poorly managed kitchen,communication wasn?t good and wires got crossed. They were so flustered they didn?t even greet us for 20 minutes. Then afteranother 20 minutes of just sitting there and finally requesting service, we ordered and right after we ordered they had to givethe chefs a break for 40 minutes. Luckily they put our food in but they kept making other people wait. I watched multiple peopleleave. When we finally got our food the meat was green and we were scarred to eat it. The food wasn?t very good. I think thisplace would be great if they had better management but it?s clear their staff needs proper training as no one seems to knowwho?s job is who?s in there and they don?t seem to have a system. I know the restaurant life can be hard but I think it would bea shame if this restaurant lost its reputation due to the poor management. Hopefully they get their groove back.

Let me start by saying the staff was great! The waitress said she was down a cook and waitressbut despite that the staff was friendly and outgoing. The food however was so so. The top of the menu said they serve largeportions and breakfast served with potatoes or hash browns. I really wanted potatoes so that was great. I ordered pancakes andasked if it came with potatoes and she said no. OK..... Well maybe the top of the menu should specify what breakfast comes withpotatoes. The hash browns were pale and slightly undercooked. The pancakes were OK but nothing special. Overall I'd say the foodwas slightly subpar than IHOP or Dennys. This absolutely could be because of staff shortages but still it was a let down of avisit.
