I must be pretty frickin’ hard to impress, as I write this review it occurs to me how negative most of the areas reviews have been. To borrow the vernacular of Chicago’s Southside it’s “sawright”.
Again, it was a wonderful evening with friends. And unlike some places we’ve been there are some real bright spots here. If you’re a bread/roll person I think the rolls here are fantastic. If I could make them that way I’d be twice my present girth. The desserts are numerous and roundly enjoyed by our group. The entrée’s are a step down from the two aforementioned products. I had a barbeque parfait which was enjoyable (beans, coleslaw and barbeque pork served in a mason jar), but no single component better than average, in fact the beans were probably no better than a good canned baked bean (if you believe that exists). I’m big on value when I review a restaurant and here too it’s “sawright”, but I found little to entice me to drive to Marion area from our Midland Hills home for another trip anytime soon. If you live in the Marion area or are going through, I’d say give it a try.
π π ½ Nothing really to grouse about, breads and desserts are their most successful items
π π ½ Service was OK, when we travel in a large group I give them more leeway than I’d otherwise do.
