I hate leaving bad reviews but feel I have to. My daughter and 2 grandchildren ate there yesterday and I have to say I was disappointed. I ordered a chef salad that I should have sent back. Over half of the iceberg lettuce was wilting and turning brown. The chicken fried chicken my daughter ordered was rubbery. The corndog and fries kids meal was fine. The side order of Mac n cheese was dry. The side order of green beans was fine. The bill was astonishing at $50 but I guess when they charge over $10 for 3, 16 oz soft drinks. I won't be going back. Service was not good either and they weren't busy and had 3 waitresses working. read more

After all of the great reviews I did not know what to expect. I was glad to see that I was not disappointed. The huge burger was fresh, moist, and choc full of flavor fresh off the flat top. The onion ring side that complimented the awesome burger was also top notch! They were thin sliced and seemed to be freshly battered. They were crisp, tasty and some of the best that I have ever had. read more

Iggy's Diner - Diners Near Me - Carthage, Missouri

Great diner! Very low prices with courteous and prompt service! I loved going here when I lived in Carthage.

I like this place. Good hearty breakfast and they have this thing that's called red spaghetti it's pretty good basically chilli instead of marinara sauce. read more

Love this place, the breakfast is amazing. My first experiences here were in the afternoon or evening and their lunch/dinner menu is excellent. It's great "diner" food served with a smile and first class service. My favorite, by far, here is now the breakfast menu. It's definitely one of the top breakfast places in the 4-state area. You gotta try this place, breakfast, lunch or dinner it's a great place to eat. read more

Food was excellent and reasonably priced. Portion are wonderful. The only downside was the young waitress was so involved with conversation with other staff, she forgot to check back with us. read more

Great breakfast especially the bacon, biscuits and gravy and coffee. Waitress needs to pay more attention to the ladies than the guys.

We ate here years ago... it was fabulous. Stopped today for lunch with my daughter and grandson, and it was atrocious. The food was horrible, and the price was outrageous. McDonald's is better. read more

Super adorable diner with excellent staff. Our waitress Isabella was not only attentive and friendly, but when we spilled a glass of water she was very kind in helping us clean up! Thanks Isabella! read more

We love this place. Retro dinner. Route 66. Great food, our favorite server , "Audrey" is there.

The food was great. The waitress gave us her opinion of the best things on the menu and she was spot on. We even tried a new menu item to us called Spaghetti Red. We weren't sure if we would like it but we did. It had a nice hometown feel with great food and great service. Would definitely recommend!!! read more

Not a bad place. The service was not very attentive but the food was good. The prices are reasonable and the diner could use a little bit of cleaning. read more

Diner food. Great breakfast. Burgers and the like. Lots of choices from dinners to sandwiches and salads.

Great Find on our Holiday Road trip. Had breakfast that was great. Chicken Fried Steak, Biscuits&Gravy, & a PhilliCheeseSteak Omelet did NOT disappoint anyone in our party with great taste and perfect portions. Just wish had saved room for PIE! Will make sure to come back on way home and hit the dinner menu. read more

Iggy's is your classic roadside diner. Stopped in and had breakfast. The service was great and our meals were yummy! My husband had the scrambler and I had the Texas toast sausage sandwich. read more

Jersey Diner in Carthage Missouri Great service at lunch. Prompt and fast. Refills kept coming. Had the lunch special of 1/2 pounder with bacon and eggs, yummy. Fries are why the 4 stars. They were soggy and tasted as much. read more

After eating here, I can see why this place is voted best diner in MO. It is a super unique small town diner with lots of character and most importantly the nicest wait staff ever. My daughter came in cranky because she just woke up and Brittany (Mgr) and Tabitha wouldn't leave her alone until she was having a blast and said best place ever. read more

We went to Iggy's after reading reviews here on Yelp. We were not disappointed. The burgers were great. The onion rings were good, but are not like traditional rings they were more like what other restaurants call onion straws. Don't go to Iggy's looking for a desert. All they have is molten cake and ice cream. read more

Amazing staff amazing food good service amazing prives and comfortable enviorment with a old feeling

Prices are just right and the amount of food is plentiful! Hamburgers were large and thick and the tenderloin was equally large, but not so large that it's overwhelming, like many places. I love the diner feel. The only thing that would make it better would be poodle skirts! read more

We ate here at lunch yesterday. One girl had chicken fried steak, she said it was good but was not a fresh chicken fried steak, it was pre-frozen. I had chicken nachos that had a good flavor but the chips that had cheese on them were soggy by the time I received my plate. The chips that didn;t have cheese were stale. The chicken had a good flavor but was very dry and over cooked. We will try again but only once more. :) read more

August 31,2018 Lunchtime:! Nice place with many Elvis decorations on the wall. Sufficient parking. Got a wrong first impression of the staff. The black lipstick and tattoos had me thinking I was in the wrong place. Actually, the staff was very Friendly and they wasted little time taking care of their customers. This alone deserves at least ab4!star. There was some "banter" between the waitresses. Apparently something internal was going on that affected the waitresses. There was attitude clearly evident. Having stated that, Our waitress was super and very nice to us, the customer. Let's talk Food! Ordered the hamburger basket with a side of onion rings. Burger was grey in color, had yellow lettuce, thin pickles, onion and one slice of thin tomato. I asked for Mayo and mustard and both were heavily on the bottom bun, top bun was dry. Not impressed! Their Onion Rings were hot and appeared to be made in-house. Half the batter didn't stick to the onions, probably because the onion was cut too thinly. We ate the part of the onion rings that were coated in batter. That part was very good. Iggy, cut your onions thicker and go to a better method of battering your onions. I say this as a person with experience in the culinary arts having attended two different culinary schools and managed restaurants. I've also trained waitresses and waiters how to do their jobs and make more tips. I've been there too! Left a 35% tip as our waitress did a great job. read more

It's a diner with diner food. Burger was a burger... good but again a typical diner burger. The fries were fresh cut and ample. Tator tots were light and crispy. Service was good though waitress' sometimes got distracted with regulars and we're quite loud. The waitress' were funny and friendly though! The decor is fun 50s themed. Not anything to complain about and may have been better if we ordered the spaghetti as it seemed like it was quite popular with the regulars with pickles and onions??? Check it out, it's a neat stop. read more

The food is great and I used to really love coming here but it's stressful seeing your food sit in the window for 10 minutes while waitresses run around getting drinks and food orders for everyone while walking past your food. Even food put up in the window after ours was taken to the table before ours. If I wanted cold food I would have had ice cream. read more

Great old school Diner! Good home cooked food and priced right. I recommend the special of the day. The service was very fast when we visited. Food came out very hot. If you are on a road trip stop here to eat, don't eat fast food. read more

Iggy's Diner - Steak Sandwich - Diners Near Me - Carthage, Missouri

Not good. Spaghetti red smelt like cat food. Tried it and it wasn't bad but the toast was the highlight of the meal. That's not a compliment

Meh. The service and atmosphere were 5 stars but couldn't make up for the bad food. I felt like the food was what you would get at a state fair instead of a restaurant. The nachos came with that cheese-like vegetable shortening product instead of real cheese. read more

Iggy's Diner - Super cool inside. - Diners Near Me - Carthage, Missouri

just ate dinner at iggys and it is the worst place I have ever eaten. the food was not hot and the nothing was fresh all was either frozen or out of an envelope. I will never go back again and I am a resident of Carthage. The service was terrible as well , the waitress never even checked on us to see if we wanted a refill on our drinks or if the food was ok. So please take my advise don't eat here and if you do , it will be at your own risk. The Williams Family. read more

Great 50s diner atmosphere. Delicious onion rings, Juicy tasty burger, fresh crisp salad. Modest prices diner $7-10, Burger $4.50. Good sweet tea. Fun wait staff. Worth stopping!! read more

Typical diner, full of locals. Had breakfast hard to put much flavor in it. Frank was a hoot

I had the Denver style omelet and it was cheesy, hot and delicious! The hash browns were nice and crispy and the atmosphere is very cool! We will be back! read more

This place is always bubbling with movement, lively, and great food. We have always received great service. The food is superb and consistently good. My only complaint is that I wish it had longer hours of business. I would definitely recommend this place. read more

We stopped on our way to KC, and we're glad we did! Good and service was great. We stopped in on a Thursday afternoon and had no wait at 1145am, and food was pretty fast. I ate the cheeseburger and did half onion rings, half Suzy q's, it was great! Husband had grilled chicken salad and said it was good, kids had corndog with fries (reg fries are like home sliced and cooked, good!) and chicken strip (1) and applesauce. I'd definitely recommend! Cute little diner with good food. read more

Very good food and excellent service. We had the mushroom Swiss burger(double patties), side and huge drink for only $5.99. read more

Great, juciy and tasty burgers. If you are looking for a good ol American burger you will find it enthroned in a basket here at Iggy's. Healthy (figuratively speaking) portions. Tried the curly fries and they are standard fair. If you are a burger conisier you will be pleasantly pleased. read more

Very good food. Chicken fried steak tasted homemade. Portions were generous. Great atmosphere. Great service. Kids menu goes beyond just the normal menu items. I would definitely eat here again. read more

Best bargain in Missouri! The service is great and we had good food at good prices. Highly recommend!

Food quality was not that good. In addition the restaurant was less than clean. Not going to be a repeat customer.

I went there today for breakfast and they have some of the best breakfast I've ever had. I got biscuits and gravy with eggs and hash browns and it was absolutely amazing. Service was really laid back and fast. Our food was fresh and hot and really didn't take that long to make. Wonderful place to eat. read more
