Good greeting when we arrived. Seated right away. Service was ok, food ok and decor was a dinner decor. Just didn’t feel that dinner type vibe from the staff and so on.
Maybe get more involved with patrons and tell their story of the place and what brought them to work there. Engage more and more welcoming. I would come back again for a second try.

Jax At The Tracks is about the best spot on Truckee to grab hold of something hot …not counting Lee Tae the Keno girl, but that’s another story!
I had a big casino breakfast and as I’m coming into Truckee for fuel, I figured ..what the hell I’ll eat a little something to get me over the hill. Well, Jax At The Tracks is just ahead, and I remembered how great the mac and cheese is, so I’m doing it again! This time I got it loaded, and it was truly amazing! 5☆☆☆☆☆ for sure!

We went to the downtown Jax and had a very bad experience.
When we arrived, we were told there was a 50-minute wait, which we accepted. Once seated, it took 30 minutes for someone to take our order, and another 30 minutes for the food to arrive. Almost 2 hours total for a coffee and Eggs Benedict.
The eggs were not poached at all, they were basically hard-boiled, and the hollandaise sauce looked dry on top, not fresh.
The worst part came shortly after eating: I had severe stomach cramps, bloating, and diarrhea. I felt extremely unwell and could barely move. This is the first time I’ve had such a strong and immediate reaction after eating such a simple dish.
I do not recommend this restaurant. Long waits, poorly prepared food, and an experience that ended with serious stomach issues. Save your time and avoid it.

We ordered fettuccine Alfredo, grilled cheese with fries & house salad. The fettuccine was drowning in Alfredo, fries were almost burnt & house salad was all wilted & bad in the middle of the bed of salad. Daughter has upset stomach & diarrhea thanks to the Alfredo. Food was terrible, servers were nice.

The best food and service around this town! Loved everything and the music was awesome too. Prices were great too. They don’t disappoint.

We ate breakfast here on a Monday morning. The atmosphere is that of an old diner which was charming. The server was attentive and we were waited on quickly. Both of us ordered the crab cake eggs Benedict which had been featured on Diners, Drive Ins and Dives. This was also served with hashbrowns. Our food was warm at best, the hashbrowns definitely had not come off the griddle but seemed to have been sitting for a while as they were very chewy. The eggs Benedict was warm and the hollandaise sauce was broken. Overall food was very underwhelming. Maybe just a bad day ?

Breakfast experience — room for improvement
I visited for breakfast and was not impressed. I can’t speak for the burgers, but the breakfast item I ordered—one of the menu’s featured dishes—was large yet felt like a mix of flavors that didn’t quite work together. That’s my personal opinion, and I understand others may see it differently. While some reviews are very critical, I believe this place has real potential to be great. A bit of refinement to the menu and a friendlier approach from the staff could make a big difference.

It’s an old refurbished railroad dining car. Period decor, nice staff, great food! You gotta try the Vanilla Caramel shake! It’s the bomb!
Side note… We arrived right after Rob Lowe left.

Oh Wow!! What a rare gem in this cozy diner. Ran into this place during a Tahoe Christmas trip. Such a great atmosphere! The food was great. The pulled pork burger hit the spot in the wintery weather. Everyone was full of smiles and very greeting. Right out of a TV show. Ordered a fountain style milk shake just for the fun of it. Even the other diners were smiling and very hospitable. I would gather this is a go to for the locals. This will be a certain repeat stop every time I’m in the Truckee Tahoe area! Thank you Jax at the Tracks for a great additional memory to a great Christmas vacation. Will definitely be back!

Awesome breakfast spot in Truckee in an authentic diner car. This was a great place for a group with their large menu and reasonable prices for large portions. We loved the Crab Cakes Eggs Benedict that came with avocado and hash browns, the BLAT, All Day Addiction (plate with mushrooms & goat cheese, as well as the sandwich), the Jax Torta and Burger.
