Wandered in here and so glad I did!! Had a delicious desert rider with the absolute best potato salad. The service was wonderful. Sweet ladies work here.

I really liked the atmosphere here. Store was clean despite being very old. Service was quick and everyone seemed friendly enough. I had the Desert Rider. It did not taste bad, but for $8 I expected a bit more. It was filling and they did not skimp on the tomatoes. But it did not have much flavor. Overall I wish I had gone somewhere else. I imagine part of the issue is its downtown, and things tend to be a bit pricy here.

Ordered the Desert Rider and Chicken Salad sandwich lunch specials. The combo includes the sandwiches, pickles, drinks and potato salads. The potato salad was really really tasty and flavorful! Price was reasonable for the food portion. Staff members were very friendly. Great downtown Jacksonville location near the skyway station. Definitely would recommend for a quick lunch options (both dine in or to go).

Had to run into the eye doctor. Good thing about that was being able to grab a Camel Ryder to go. Made for a good day!

I found this place by mistake and i can’t believe I’ve never been here before!! I had she breakfast in a cup..OMG..the best grits outside of my mothers grits. They were the perfect consistency. There was enough meat through out the entire bowl and not just the top like some other breakfast spots. Then i ordered the deluxe salad!!! OMGGG meat..meat and more meat. You can tell the ladies here love what they do..even in a crowded place they love with such ease and class, i can’t wait to come back.

I have been a long time customer of Desert Rider and am so sad but the change over there. It has always been a great lunch spot but lately they have been so rude and unfriendly. They now lock their door by 1:30 not accepting new orders, not answering the phone. They clearly have forgotten they are in a service business. I doubt I will revisit the location (not b/c of food etc) but they really do not have any customer service. I was at the door and they opened it to let someone out and the woman wouldn’t even acknowlege me as standing there. so disapointing. not sure why the change but this place is no longer a place I want to want to give my money.

I’ve been going here for years. Always friendly staff. Great food. The only problem is parking. It is downtown so get ready to look for a parking spot. Lol at times it takes longer to find parking than the service you receive. A MUST.

You can’t replicate what your mama makes, but this place can. Nothing like some warm feeling tasty sandwiches.

It’s been years since I’ve eaten here and I wasn’t disappointed. I agree with another commenters it’s very old-school and that’s part of its charm. I had my favorite sandwich which is tunafish with lettuce, tomato, banana peppers on toasted pita bread and it was very good. It was really good pita bread too. Their tunafish is on the sweet side and so was the homemade potato salad that came with it -which was also very good. The crisp dill pickle was a nice touch and I enjoyed the fresh ice tea. Bill came to $22 for two people

I should have taken a “before” picture; regardless, my Camel Rider sandwich was AWESOME – and very filling, the potato salad was delish, and now I’m hooked. New favorite sandwich shop. If you haven’t eaten here yet you are missing out on a gem. Oh, if you don’t like your sandwiches wet, I think there is a Jimmy John’s around the corner…
