Really wanted to like this place after seeing a lot of comments/pictures on the FB group, WV Area Restaurant Reviews. My husband picked up two spaghetti dinners to bring home. He said he had to wait while the lady walked down to the grocery store for lettuce for our salads. The spaghetti sauce was very bland. Even adding hot sauce and grated parm didn't help. Also, like another reviewer wrote, the portions were small, and had very little sauce. The salads consisted of about 6 or seven bites each. The bread was over-buttered and was placed directly on top of the spaghetti, which by the time he got home, it was soggy. Attaching picture they posted today of their spaghetti dinner, and pictures of what we received. First & last time we'll be there! read more

Stopped in to try the Monte Cristo locals had been raving about with my husband. We arrived around 6pm, but service was still quick and friendly. We started with some broccoli bites that came out quickly and tasted pretty good. Nice and crispy without being overdone. My husband ordered the daily special of chicken and dumplings as they where out of meatloaf. No biggie. Our mains came out quickly as well, and most everything was really good. The dumplings where of the large biscuit variety but with good taste and texture. The mashed potatoes where the slightest bit peppery, and the corn sweet. My Monte Cristo was perfectly fried and crispy on the outside and gooey goodness on the inside with the a hint of sweetness in the batter. It came with strawberry jam, but was so good it didn't need it. The fries where standard and surprisingly just the tiniest bit undercooked to my preference, which was odd because the other fried foods where crispy perfection. They also use something like Lawry's seasoning salt on them, and I just wasn't a big fan personally. Overall we enjoyed our meal and will be back to try other menu items. One thing I will slightly complain about is the to-go boxes. Petty, I know. They are super flimsy, so beware if ordering to-go. read more

Four of us visited the Day Dream Cafe on 5:10pm, Friday, September 3, 2021 for dinner. Wait staff immediately advised us they were out of five different items - example french fries, onion rings, baked steak, etc. She ten asked if we were stayig or going. We told her we would stay becase we like to eat at local resturants, Two of us ordered spaghetti and when it arrived the portions were very small and room temperature. The very edges of the dinner was slightly warmer but not hot - liked the plate had been nuked. The pasta and sauce had been mixed together like it was the day before's menu item. One other ordered meat loaf and said it was good but also only room temperature. The other person ordered fish and got chips since there were no fries aailable. Additional patrons came to the restaurant and were immediately told everything they were out of. The emloyees were more interested in preparing food for a catering. The wait staff kept apologizing to us and all the patrons in the restaurant. Stating she is only the messenger. read more
