This is a good old fashioned American Diner to ear at on a road trip. The restaurant is kept clean and service was good. My crackers were stale and my waitress brought a fresh batch right away and those were good. My chicken pot pie wasn’t exactly what I expected but everyone has their own recipe. My husband’s chicken fried steak was very good. All the sides we ordered were tasty – mashed potatoes, fried onion rings, French fries, fried okra. Very likely to stop again in my way to Fort Worth from Houston

Definitely worth checking out. Been here a couple of times recently. The food is actually fantastic. Service & atmosphere are good. Servers are professional & adequate but not super welcoming or attentive.
Onion rings are the secret here. One order was very good, other order was possibly the best I have ever had. Fajita beef was very tender & flavorful. Honestly, this is one of only a couple of places in Fairfield that actually has great food.

This is a cool, retro diner, and it feels really authentic. The food was great! Lots of menu options including breakfast served all day.

It was so yummy! I had the mini street tacos and the meat was flavorful and tender! The salsa was fresh and the prefect amount of heat. My husband said his was delicious, I can’t relent what it was called but it came in a big bowl thing with every kind of meat! And he had the fried stuffed Jalapeñoes and he said they were homemade and perfectly done. The restaurant itself was nice and clean, and the staff were super attentive!

We loved everything about this place. The waiter was so sweet, and the diner felt retro and comforting in the best way. The food was really good, not a single complaint about anything we ate. The mac & cheese was the standout, and the little peach cobbler special was such a nice touch. We’ll definitely be back on our next road trip to East Texas.

My favorite lunch spot in Fairfield. The service is excellent as well as the food. Generous portions, fairly priced, even the water is good!

The place is an adorable 50’s diner theme. Plays great oldies. Serves balls and shakes. The food was all over-cooked which made me said, especially with the prices. The service was only ok. I only visited the 1 time, so I don’t have any recommendations. I did enjoy the experience though.

Wow!! Where to begin!! We were skeptical at first as we had never been to Ponte’s (pahnees as we learned from locals!!) but after reading numerous reviews we were sold!! The 50’s atmosphere truly takes you back to grandmas house!! They even had seasonal Easter decor set out *pictured below*. Our waiter was very polite and helped us pick the best items. The lighting fixtures were superb!!… *pictured below.*
Our chips and salsa arrived and they were on par with the top Texas Mexican restaurants!! *video below.*
They even let you refill your own drinks at no extra charge!! The kiddos loved that part. Not to mention they have the good ice!! *video below*
The cherry on top was the vintage straw holder!! The rumors are true, they are not a myth!! *video below*
The beef fajitas arrived sizzling and left our tummy’s satisfied!! The bacon wrapped hotdog and fries were stupendous and they even allow you to salt the fries to your taste!! Very generous.
Thank you, Ponte’s, for the family road trip memories we made on our stop!!

Service was good. Food was realllyyy bland which is saying something because I just got off a week cruise (look at that sad hamburger)

A very nice family restaurant. Fairly priced menu with decent size entrees. Senior and children’s menus also plus daily specials. Seating seemed a little close for a small space and I’m sure if they would even accommodate larger groups upon request. Friendly staff. Clean restrooms with no gender designation. Thanks! Definitely recommend!!
