I went to Don's last night with a big group. We went there because it was the only place open at 11 pm, and I had no expectations for the service or the food...but Jeff made a point to give us extra special attention and make sure we had a great experience. The food is affordable and, for the price, I would say it's good quality. I don't live in Marysville, but the next time I go back, I can't wait to go to Don's again! read more

So we're not from Washington so we stopped to eat there on our way on an outing. The server walked past us a few times and it was half dead in there. She didn't offer suggestions on the menu. So my daughter it a steak dinner and it supposed to be rare. I ordered turkey sandwich. Well my daughter steak was so chewy and it was fully cooked. My turkey sandwich tasted freezer burned, I had my daughter taste a piece and she said something is wrong with it. I ate half cause I was hungry and the meal total was almost $50 I felt sick as we were leaving. Less than an hour I threw up from the sandwich and my stomach hurt bad. I threw away the rest of the sandwich and my daughter's steak. We want ever stop there again if we're in that town! read more

Although the portions are generous, the service is only mediocre at best. The servers seem to prioritize chatting with the regulars over attending to the needs of the other customers. The menu items are typical of any 24 hour diner, so don't expect anything prepared from a recipe. read more

I visited this restaurant with my granddaughter. What should have been a nice outing turned into a very uncomfortable experience. During our visit, the interaction felt dismissive and disrespectful, especially toward my granddaughter, who is transgender. When she asked for a straw it was basically just tossed on the table as the server walked by. As other customers were asked how their meal was, we were not. Even when our bill was brought to the table we weren't asked how everything was. Everyone deserves to be treated with basic kindness and respect when dining out. No one should feel singled out or unwelcome because of who they are. I'm sharing this in the hope that the restaurant takes this seriously and provides better training so future customers are treated with dignity. I gave it a 1, the food and prices were ok. I will not be back and don't recommend. read more

Oh my goodness keep this one alive. The biscuits and gravy are so delicious and fried chicken is delicious and perfectly seasoned and battered. The burger's are big and juicy and tasty. Please keep this restaurant open!!! Marysville Washington State read more

My wife and I visited your establishment this morning for an early breakfast. We were promptly greeted by Jeff, who demonstrated exceptional professionalism, helpfulness, and attentiveness to our requirements. He efficiently prepared our coffee and offered insightful recommendations for our meal selections. Given the nature of the restaurant, his attire was impeccable, and he ensured our table was meticulously clean and well-appointed. We anticipate returning in the future. We extend our sincere gratitude to Jeff for his outstanding service. read more

The only reason I'm giving this place a 3 is the decor it's dated. Totally a dive diner, but that's ok the food was pretty good I didn't see any crusty bottles or anything like that. The people were very sweet! The other patrons were definitely characters to say the least. Now the food I was a bit skeptical about when we were looking at the menu but I was pleasantly surprised! My wife had breakfast eggs, hash browns, beacon and ham with a massive pancake, I had the cabbage patch soup which was delicious and hardy, and the pot roast dinner. the pot roast was tender and juicy and smothered in gravy. Overall the meal was enjoyable and hit the spot for sure. read more

Are you looking for ambiance? Then this is NOT the place for you. What you WILL find, however, is friendly staff, generous portions, a hot cup of joe, and a clean establishment. Two stand-outs were the coconut shrimp and the ham on the breakfast menu. If you get the coconut shrimp, be sure to grab some packets of orange marmalade to spread on top. It's a great substitute for not having sweet chili sauce or the like to dip them in. The breakfast ham was phenomenal. Beautiful, big slices. They took up basically half the plate. Looking forward to returning! read more

the server was so nice and helpful!! The taco salad was really good and fresh. I loved it here!!

Lived in Marysville for 30 years and finally got a chance to dine in at Don's. Burgers were lukewarm, fries and onion rings cold. Waitress was busy eating her dinner and chatting with others, apparently forgot about our meal. We will never go back, surprised this place is still open. read more

We were invited here for breakfast nine years ago. Ever since then, Don's has been our go for breakfast lunch or dinner. There are times we can eat here 3-4 times in one week. The staff here are so friendly and make us feel at home. There are days it's so busy and you will still get that great service with a smile and a wave. I love feeling that I'm being treated like a good friend then just another tab. Great diner fare with trucker portions! Angie, Nikki, Helena, Christina & Jana make this place the amazing restaurant we have grown to love. read more

I came for breakfast. It was all right. I love a place that's open 24 hours so I will be back! Probably try that big ass burger, that the guy at the table next to me had. He let me take a picture!! read more

Don's Restaurant - American Near Me - Marysville, Washington

Came here super early with a friend after she got off work. It was just us considering the time we went in. It is 24/7 so that's a plus. Better than going to Dennys. My friend ordered the biscuits and gravy and I ordered the livers and onions. Prices were a lot cheaper than most places and the portion size was huge. My liver came smothered in bacon and onions with a side salad, steamed veggies and a mountain high mashed potato and gravy. We had a nice waitress who did check on us and always refilled our coffee. The taste was okay. Very basic like a mom and pops restaurant. I would have to say the restaurant isn't as clean as I hoped it would be. It would be a 5 stars if it was. I do think they do need to do a little update here and there with the booths and stuff. It is very hard to sit comfortably when you have a piece of torn pleather up your a... Anyway, I recommend. It's good basic restaurant so don't expect fancy. read more

It was alright but not really that good I got a stomach ache but the fries was good and the service was find and I saw some poop on the sink and toilet read more

After leaving Dons we were happy, full and felt cared for. We got pancakes, steak and eggs and mozzarella sticks and all good portions and delicious. Bad reviews are from bogus people. The service was good and very attentive. The vibe is a local diner, nothing fancy but all the right things. read more

Coffee was so thin/ weak I left $7 on the table and walked out without ordering. Menu was basic breakfast fare.

I was driving home from Seattle early in the morning and discovered this diner looking for a 24h restaurant that wasn't McD's. I wanted to be cautious walking into a diner in a new town at 5 am, but the staff here was welcoming and I got a good vibe from the small handful of fellow early-morning patrons. They made some decaf coffee for me (free refills) and I ordered the French toast. Very eggy French toast but that's a good thing to me! Thick and fluffy slices of bread. It was plain and simple but exceeded expectations and hit the spot. Affordable prices as you'd hope for at a diner. Note that they have a check-in deal listed on Yelp but this seems to be outdated - I brought it up to my waitress and she said she'd only heard it mentioned once, years ago, and didn't know how to apply it even then. Fine with me though since I wasn't counting on it. read more

Good spot to be honest, I liked it, but the led bulbs have to go, I would give it 5 stars if they changed their bulbs to incandescent.

Diner dive. Clean and good ole fashion diner type food. Triglycerides threw the roof. I had a double wannie burger. Good perfectly I do wish maybe 3 or 4 slices of bacon. Also a nice added touch would be grilled onions and mushrooms! Waitress was a bit annoyed that asked about the Deep Fried Mushrooms. I've had them frozen and they can be a bit slimy and not good texture. The waitress said they are frozen and never heard of any place making them fresh. I mentioned Kidd Valley in Seattle she rolled her eyes and said well we're not in Seattle and I've never her if that place. From that point on service was down hill. I showed her the Yelp coupon for 10% off she huffed and was clearly perturb! Here is photo of my delicious burger read more

I ordered the hamburger steak dinner and they totally messed that up. It didn't have the gravy, mushrooms or onions. Inside was just mashed potatoes and the steak burger... And they forgot my pilaf rice. My 10oz new York steak is smaller and thinner than before and isn't as tasty like the last time. read more

Food is good and service is excellent. I eat there 5 or 6 times a week for breakfast or lunch. I like that the employees know me and call me by my first name during my visits. They also know what I like to drink and bring that before I order my food. I highly recommend Don's Restaurant on 4th street in Marysville. read more

Ive been going here for years.... today marks the end of that support! Holy smoke... where to begin.... Waitstaff -- OUSTANDING and welcoming...Pleasant even. Food -- Perhaps a 4 (out of 10) (IF you close your eyes and imagine the place is clean and you dont have to go the hospital later for some life saving intervention!) Cleanliness out 10 .... .5 ( half a point )... maybe less Price and Affordable -- im sure not the worst in town.. but definitely at the bottom (1) (no kidding... it's outrageously expensive for a dirty dive )(my opinion) I left here thinking i should go and get a tetanus vaccination and be monitored for food born illness (exaggerations i know... but not far off) SEE THE few PICTURES The salt and pepper shakers... sticky... the condiments rack..... sticky.... like everything needed a good wipe down with disinfectant and a powerful cleaner. Food smeared or flicked on the wall... same here... disinfectant and a powerful cleaner needed.... see the pictures.... The Tabasco bottle... I wasn't even going to touch that.... it looks like previous customers might have dripped a bit on the cap AND the label and then it seeped all around the cap and congealed with whatever else in the restaurant, for a few months, and left a growing ring around the cap. SEE the pictures... Then the bill... holy crap!!! $45 for two (2) Chicken Fried steaks and ONE Sprite in a 1970's coca cola cup made of plastic ($3.59) The refill i asked for... you guessed it... another $3.59....WTH?? Refills are usually free EVERYWHERE in the United States! (but not here) SEE THE PICTURES Sorry Don's.... There are MANY more upscale restaurants in Marysville that charge FAR less with BETTER FOOD that and MUCH CLEANER ... read more

Was heading back to Seattle after seeing a punk rock show up on Whidbey Island. Googled for a 24 Hour Pl. and discovered Don's. What a pleasure! My girlfriend had the French toast which was yummy especially midnight. I got the fish platter which was OK. But the main point is our waiter was the son of the owner who's cash this out. This place has been around for 50 years and I can see why. I'll be back next time. I'm up to the Marysville outlet. read more

I forgot what food poisoning felt like until I ate here. I gave an extra star for service. Our server was quick and attentive, but the food took me out for a day. I should've gone to the Burger King across the street. Lessons learned. read more

Place is disgusting. Waitress was ok, but a little forgetful.....food was NOT what we ordered. This is a medium rare steak? I think not. Roommate asked for no onions or guac on his omelets and got onions, and you can tell it had guac on it and was just scraped off. They also forgot part of his meal and never even gave him it. I had a horrible experience last time I came here, I'm not sure why I even came back. Guess that is on me. read more

Don's Restaurant - This is not medium rare people. - American Near Me - Marysville, Washington

Food was terrible in quality and then somehow cooked to be worse? The "hollandaise" sauce looked like melted cheese vomit. Everything was undercooked no matter how we requested it, even the hash browns still had a raw potato texture. The menu had a greasy film coating it and the each service person had the attitude that we were annoying them with our presence. And we paid way too much for this experience. Don't do it read more

I was there at 8:00. Ordered a French Dip. They said breakfast only. It's a 24 hour restaurant which means everything but special's and maybe a baked potato should be served. I ordered a bacon with scrambled eggs. Bacon and hash browns were sandbagged. Pr cooked and cold! There were 6 of us in the restaurant. The toast was so cold the butter wouldn't melt. Lazy cook couldn't even scramble the eggs. A 4 pc omelette. 20 bucks and not even a refill on my coffee. read more

Went for breakfast. Great food, relaxed environment. Definitely the kind of diner you want to visit for the price.

Worked their for a few days. Never got paid for it and they never properly fired me. I busted my ass Their working . Tried to call to discuss the issue but the owner blocks me on the phone. I go to pick up my check and they always say he's "not their" read more

People be over dramatic as hell with the cleanliness of the place, it's never outrageous it's pretty well kept. There's usually one person there taking orders but there always really welcoming and do their best (deadass really great severs if they were grumpy to you idk man maybe it's what your doing). Dons is a diner you go to when your hungover and munch down. read more

Good for breakfast. Not sure about lunch or dinner meals, but breakfast was decent. I got biscuits and gravy, but i don't recommend getting it. Food was warm, not hot. Hash browns and pancakes are delicious. read more

Came at about 3 am with a friend. I got about what I was expecting. The staff were friendly and the food was good. Atmosphere was probably about a 1. I guess you could say it was about what you'd expect from a 24h diner in Marysville at 3 am. Smelled like cigarettes, Lots of random people walking around outside, someone nodding off / sleeping in a van while it was running next to me when I went to leave. Even though I'm in my 20's it felt as if my mom was gonna call me and I would have to explain that I'm somewhere I wasn't supposed to be like I was 15 years old. Like I said food was so good but also not as enjoyable because I didn't feel safe while eating it LMAO. Maybe I should come back during the day time hahaha. read more

The food before Covid was homemade and amazing. Now it's packaged, the meatloaf was horrible and not real meat! The potatoes were disgusting! I've been going here for years and last year I had to stop bc I was told they stopped all homemade food! We tried different things but all horrible. Service is always good but I refuse to pay $15 for frozen meatloaf that I can by stouffer's, and get better. I will not settle for ok. Breakfast is ok...lunch and dinner yuck . read more

I love this place! We have only gone there twice now but the waitress Betty (I think that was her name) is super funny and friendly! The food is amazing and fast! The best part is they are 24/hrs and if you are will to do a little driving then this is the place to go. I will upload a photo in my next review! read more

This place has been here a LONG time. I like places that have been around...but not this place. I hope it has something going for it but it sure isn't food. I ordered the Chicken Fried Steak. The CFS was food service and not from even the medium priced selection. I am saying one step from shoe leather. The gravy was tasting a bit rancid. The hash browns were mush and the coffee tasted like battery acid. No amount of cream and sugar could cut the taste. The service was fantastic. The waitress was friendly and attentive without hovering. She kept my coffee and water full. She was the best thing about this place. I definitely will not ever come back. My money is will go elsewhere. read more
