    Hey. I haven't found better. Educate me! :biggrin_25514:

    Family sure thought it was incredible BBQ. I've had better once but I know it doesn't have truck parking, but I've never had better mesquite BBQ.

    This place has the best BBQ I've ever eaten. But it's in a bad section of town, not to mention lack of parking.

    Never actually stopped at Andersen's so I can't compare, but Granzella's in Williams gets my vote for best restaurant on i5. No official truck parking, but there is a dirt lot about half a block away

    Agreed. Pretty typical T/A food in a giant truckstop. I much prefer the Kwik Star ~80 miles down the road @ exit 201...


    No mention of Johnsons Corner? Probably for the best now that it is a Petro...


    Derby City truckstop on i75 KY gets my vote for food -- if you can handle a, um, rustic experience.

    If you get the chance, stop at Anderson's. Price is good, food is excellent. When I have time, Anderson's is a regular Stop.

    Truck World in Hubbard Ohio deserves a mention
    and Grammas across the street from Iowa 80 is acceptable

    I forget the name of the truckstop in Snow Shoe, PA, but last time I was there the food was good and plentiful and it was amazingly cheap.

    Yeah they do, always over looked. But the food there is some of the best in Maryland.

    A "bad" truck stop but a worthy mention is Dhillon's in San Jon, NM. Indian food that is the REAL DEAL.

    Joseph 1135,
    It's just a matter of time before South of the Border goes away. It has started falling apart over the years and many of the buildings onsite are closed. The Truckstop is a joke and look at the old business' around them and it looks like a war zone. It used to be a conversation place worth stopping just to see once about 10 or more years ago but now you hope it just goes away. Just sayin.
     
    joseph1135 Thanks this.
