This is not for high brow dining, thus is for flavor and comfort. They also have some amazing milkshakes but I was full after the broccoli cheddar and garlic Mac that I created! Good thing I don't live in Joplin or I would be eating here all the time and gain so much weight! Love this place!

This one had the possibility of bein' five star, but he service dropped it down. The food was…read moredelicious and my cocktail was quite tasty. But when we got there, we were going back and forth about getting one large table for everyone, or a smaller table, and let the rest of the folks fend for their own table when they got there. The guy at the front knew our dilemma and said that our server could take our orders right away, and get the ordering process going, so we picked the bigger table. Well, that worked out horribly. We don't know if he didn't pass it on to our server or if she just didn't care, but everything took forever. ALL of our food came out at the same time, and then we were asking for our checks because we had somewhere we needed to be, it was like she downshifted into non-movement. Ruined a good meal.

All it was was a container of hot dog sauce did I could have bought at Walmart for a little over $1 a can and a bowl of spaghetti that I could have bought for a dollar at Walmart and made my own The only extras they gave me was a little cup of dill pickles and a cup of raw onion chopped. I can't believe that in order to try their food I had to cough out just $32 plus tax for a family meal That's ridiculous talk about highway robbery and shaming the customer. I would never go back there and I never recommend them but I did make use of their sauce I bought a pack of $1.19 hot dogs and put it on the hot dogs.

Service was good, with everything made to order. Went on a Sunday and the after church crowd filled the place. Great double burger that was well seasoned. Tots and onion rings were crispy and tasty. Yes, a little greasy but that's what makes it good.

Great place to get an old-fashioned burger that makes you feel like it's back in the 50s/60s…read more The staff was super friendly and answered our questions about what items came on the different food items and was helpful on adding some extras like grilled onion on the burger. We ate inside and it was the first time being in. The place you can tell is very old and the building is showing its age for the dining room with a massive amount of wear and tear. For an old-school drive-in, that is not a make or break for me as the building and most items are most likely original and it is what it is. Ordered a side of Suzi-Q's and they were hot and fresh but they just didn't have a lot of flavor. I regretted not getting the tater tots instead and would most likely just get a burger by itself in the future. It would be nice if they had some light seasoning compared to just salt or used seasoned fries as the base. The burger was where the home run was for me. I kept it simple and had pickles, ketchup, and grilled onion with cheese and the only thing I regretted was getting a single and not the double. It was piping hot and had come straight off the flattop. the cheese was melted and gooey. The burger was super juicy and like a classic old-fashioned burger, had some grease soaked into the bun which made the flavor just burst.

The Waiter was very warm, friendly and attentive without being overbearing. We had draft beer in a chilled glass (not frosty, which I prefer). Appetizers: We got Arancini (see image) and they were slightly over toasted but delicious. Entrees: We chose Pappardelle Bolognese & Manicotti delivered with buttered focaccia bread slices (see image). Both were delicious! Pappardelle pasta was a tad overcooked, and the Manicotti was the Star of the two! The bread is warm sliced fresh focaccia and lightly brushed with butter and a sprinkle of Parmesan. Portions are generous, and we both took leftovers home and we asked for more to-go bread. Summary: Prices are good for the quality, portions and service! Our visit was $51 (before tip) with 4-beers, appetizers and 2-Entrees. So a couple will pay about that much with a comparable restaurant. Restrooms are small but clean. Albeit the men's toilet tank lid is missing(?). Recommended. Would have been a full 5-stars had arancini and pappardelle had not been slightly overcooked. But not enough to send it back. Enjoy!

Not the fastest getting your food out to you...but....its piping hot when it does come to your table. - Fried chicken was good crust and good tasting crust. More salt makes it better. -Mac & Cheese - Is not your Kraft crap and much better than that. Very black pepper forward today, which may not be for some. Maybe just the batch; as I don't recall that from before. - Cabbage: just good basic cabbage seasoned an ok amount to be a simple good cabbage. Crazy fun fact about this place: They're open til 3 am on Thurs and Fri. This would be some great food to the access to later in the night!
