We meet here often with 7-8 other people we graduated with MANY years ago and have NEVER been…read moredisappointed with the food or service! We love the atmosphere, the beauty out the windows and your prices too!!! Looking forward to our next visit real soon! We do highly recommend this to others for a relaxing and delicious dinner or lunch!! Jan and Old time friends!!!!

For my first time here I am so disappointed. My husband hyped me up for this place as his first…read moretime here he was more than stellar. I was torn between getting the Mottville Cheeseburger or the Breaded Tenderloin I asked our waitress if the tenderloin was a prefab patty. She just said that it comes pre-bredded. She didnt really anwser... so...I still am not sure. We shared a sampler platter, and hubs had the whitefish (lemon pepper flavor) with loaded baked potato, and unsweet tea, I had the Mottville cheeseburger and fries with a coke. Our waitress seemed rushed when taking our order. (We were there during the dinner hour so I completely understand being busy and the weekend and needing to turn tables) She didnt ask me how I wanted my burger cooked and she didnt ask what cheese I wanted, I didnt know what cheese even came with it as it did not state on the menu. Our sampler arrived, it contained onion rings, greenbeans, mushrooms and mozzarella sticks. It came with 2 dipping sauces. Both of our sauces were ranch. (Wish I would not have had to ask for marinaria by the time our waitress brought it our the cheese sticks were already cold and past their prime) When my food arrived she sat it on the table and left just as quickly as she came. Did not ask me if my burger was to my liking or anything. However, I did hear her ask the table behind us how everyone wanted their steak and their fish cooked. (Not sure why my hurger would have been any different) For my liking my burger was way more pink than I would have liked. I did not complain and I did not say anything as we also were not asked how our meal was. The resturant seems clean at the surface however it did feel a bit claustrophobic. Dark and low celings. There is a nice section of the resturant that looks outward toward the river and has a nice view. The mirrored wall on the other side is something left to be desired for my taste. For the price... the portion size seemed a bit off... perhaps one more filet for the fish and maybe a few more fries or a smaller portion of fries and a second side would be nicer. I'm not sure with what we recieved if $63.00 was worth it, and unfortunately our server was not as helpful as she could have been. The food was just mediocre at best and nothing to really write home about. Will I be back... Most likely as my husband likes this place. I just hope that next time it won't be during dinner service and I hope that our waitress could be a little more accommodating and anwser questions about the menu when asked.

Dining in a private Amish home is an incredible experience that ought to be on everyone's bucket…read morelist. This place was recommended to us not by a tourist but by a friendly relative of the Amish owner, Brenda Slabaugh (everyone in this settlement is close-knit). Like other in-home dining venues, the spacious room also serves as a social gathering and worship place for the Amish. Nearly everything in the huge kitchen is prepared from scratch and served family-style. The fixed menu includes bread, salad, chicken, roast beef, noodles, mashed potatoes, cooked vegetables, and assorted pies. Everything we tasted was phenomenal. Homemade peanut butter and jam, spread on fresh-baked bread, were ethereal. The 'colorific' salad was colorful indeed and tossed in a savory vinaigrette. White meat chicken fingers and dark meat were breaded and baked (not fried) to perfection. The beef (pot roast, perhaps) was fork-tender and juicy. All of the side dishes and pies were just as wonderful. Brenda and family members who helped her prepare and serve the meal were friendly and attentive to our needs, and happy to answer questions about Amish lifestyle and customs. Of course, a 'modern' restroom is available. This business is aimed at large parties and tour groups, but it's available to smaller parties on Wednesday evenings. Advance reservations are required

Great homemade food from wonderful people! Amazing hospitality. Also bought bread to take home.read more
