"Let me start by saying that parking is plentiful, service is amazing and there are some picnic tables where you can eat outside if you are traveling with a pet. Shame on us for not getting what the reviews recommended, our food wasn't bad, chicken tenders and Philly sandwich but it just wasn't what we expected for a 4.9 rating."

"Visiting the area from Pennsylvania, we decided to stop in for dinner after an afternoon of hiking. The service and the food were excellent. I had the ribeye steak with a baked potato and a side salad"

"This place is a gem. Just as soon as we walked in the owner greeted us. We were there for breakfast, but they had just switched over to lunch but she served us breakfast anyway. Wait staff was friendly and accommodating. The food was really good too. They make some secret recipe pancakes. Very delicious. And I love their grits."

"Dysartsville has a new eatery thanks to the closing of Elevate in downtown Marion. It isn't quite as quirky, other than the folks working there, largely the same. Food is good, service is good, and being off-grid communication wise is not a bad thing. Drive on down and experience down home goodness."

"We love this place. It’s small, but big on taste, service and satisfaction. We enjoy being called baby by the wait staff-makes us feel like family. We always enjoy our breakfast here and they never mind adding cheese to our eggs and onions to our hash browns. The food is always served quick, hot and consistently perfect. We would love to know the secret behind those wonderful pancakes! Keep up the great job-never change a thing."

"A quaint place that the locals frequent, where they call most people by name when entering. Super friendly servers answered our questions and were eager to be flexible with side options. Food was fresh, hot, and delicious. The place is small and clean. We'll definitely stop if we pass that way again. Yum!"
