#09-2021 the iron skillet at Remington Indiana located inside the Petro stopping center still one of the better ones that have gotten reopened. like many of the TA Petro locations though the salad bar and buffet has been removed completely does not appear to be either going to put a new one in or bring it back again. so those who look at the pictures of the facility and notice the buffet still there it's gone just a big empty gap filled up with some condiment sanitizing. couple of tables. the service is still fairly good and prompt for the most part although they do have limited seating sometimes you have to wait during some peak hours depending on how many travelers are coming through or the early morning coffee drinking locals. over the last few months I've had numerous meals here I like to stop here I've had the fish dinner which is been really good with the baked potato, they do have corned beef hash if you want corned beef hash and eggs it's not on the menu but you just have to ask and if they have it they will make it. this particular morning I came in decided to have a steer Burger steak and eggs which is basically a hamburger steak at many places. I had the eggs over medium hamburger steak well done hash browns sourdough toast nice to find that and I have the seedless blackberry jam that I like from Smuckers. ™ the food was brought out promptly it was very good and just keep up the good work at this one. read more

SIGH. NOW I KNOW WHY WE WERE THE ONLY ONES IN HERE... I ordered the roasted turkey dinner. I asked our wai8if it was Thanksgiving style turkey. With dark meat. She said it's real turkey. IT'S DELI LUNCH MEAT!! I really get aggravated with restaurant employees that don't know the difference! It was supposed to come with mashed potatoes...none. Broccoli was iced cold. Husband had the meatloaf. He said it was bland.. read more

Lisa was kinda and the food was pretty good. Would stop to eat here again if I was in the area.

Horrible service - one waitress - full house. Our food sat at the window. No help for her. Waited 45 minutes for cold food. Will not return. Old restaurant. Mediocre cleanliness. read more

Great food it's similar to Dennys! Amazing people and awesome ambience! Definitely recommend!

This Iron Skillet is clean, bright and probably offers a better level of truck stop dining. Modern and spacious, well lit dining area serves as a beacon for hungry travellers near and far. The Monday night dinner buffet is $10.99. It's a full buffet offering a great selection of hot and cold entrees. Two soup varieties! What really impressed me was the beautiful, fresh salad bar with lots of vegetables, spinach, tomatoes, broccoli, olives, cucumbers and peppers, just what most Americans need to consume daily. Only advice I'd offer, easy on the salt. The fish was a tad too salty. Recommended. read more

I order a fish "handheld" with fries, tartar sauce on the side. Hubby ordered hamburger steak, no gravy. My handheld was a large piece of fish, looked like a piece of catfish but was just white fish, NO bread or bun and no tartar sauce. Hubby's food had gravy all over it. I told the waitress, who was new, I wanted the fish sandwich but this was more like the meal and if that's the case it was OK but I'm due another side. She had to check with someone and after much discussion with the "cook", she returned to the table with the cook (who I later found out was the manager). He said I got want I ordered but I tried explaining to him that as a "handheld" no one would eat this large piece of fish with their hands. He then said "do I need to explain it to you in English or some other language"!! Again I said this is not a handheld, eat with your fingers, piece of fish. He asked if I wanted bread and I said yes that or a bun, which I told him to just bring me and I'd make the sandwich, which he did, then asked if I needed anything else and I said an apology for the way he spoke to me early. I said all I wanted was a sandwich or if this was the fish "meal" to give me another side and his comment and rudeness towards me was uncalled for. Even my hubby, who would clearly call me out if I was wrong, said I did nothing wrong and the "manager-cook" was clearly rude. My hubby who's a truck driver goes by this location frequently said he'd never eat there again. BTW I explained to the new waitress I wasn't upset with her and she did nothing wrong and that I was just trying to get what I ordered. Paid the check, left her our standard 20% tip and will never return all because of the manager! read more

Maybe my expectation were to high. Truck stop good food. Yah think again pancakes were gummy. Breakfast sausage was tasteless. Was not even given enough syrup for my pancakes. Waitress ( Lisa) gave us r food and disappeared. Now that r meal is done she comes w check and asked if we needed anything. Watched another waitress go back to her table twice to check on things. No reason for this as place was empty read more

I'm going to start by saying I should know better because this is a truck stop but YUCK. not only is the food not great, bland, and takes forever, the actual restaurant is filthy. from the door handles to the tables, floor, walls, napkin holders, all disgustin. finger prints and grease and food everywhere. I would not recommend the food at all but I would absolutely not recommend the atmosphere either. read more

We ordered from the menu. The fried shrimp is very good. My husband had the bacon cheeseburger and really liked it. The chicken Parmesan is a large portion and just ok. We did not get the buffet because it looked like it had been sitting there for hours. It did not look appetizing at all. But overall everything ok. Got the job done and we left full! Also pretty inexpensive. read more

Stopped in from outta state. They were nice and friendly. Pretty good food and was not disappointed.

Clean place nice buffet, fast service moderate pricing. You will not leave this place hungry, if you do it's your fault. When on the road eat were the truck drivers eat, is a rule of thought. And that place is The Iron Skillet! Enjoy All. read more

We stopped in and had lunch on the 4th of July, we were passing through the area. The staff was great, portions huge and restaurant clean. Sweet tea was replaced as soon as one emptied and all Covid precautions were being observed. Thanks for a great family meal! read more

Instant buffet just add water.... Nothing made from scratch bland flavorless. Kids screaming and crying and yelling. Rebecca the manager doing nothing about it. Turns out they were hers..... How unprofessional I won't stop here again ever..... read more

Always good. And hot. At least the times I've been there. Buffet plentiful. biscuits a bit dry but that could be a local preference. Wait staff friendly, not overbearing, checking enough so you don't feel rushed or negated. read more

Stay Far, Far, Far Away! This place is a dump. I eat at Iron Skillets all the time as the food is pretty decent. I own a Pilot Car Company so we're always at the Petro with our loads. Botulism isn't away..... read more

Actually pretty good food for the breakfast buffet. It tasted fresh and not leftover. Had quiche and muffins and potatoes. Waitress was friendly and attentive. Will eat here again. :) read more

I had the sausage and gravy meal. It was okay. I like mine a little thicker and with pepper. I looked over the menu and nothing really caught my eye. I walked in to see the buffet they have. I would not pay for it. It was to small and to much for what it had. I have not made up my mind yet if I'd go back. read more

At first we were concerned that the food was taking too long but it was worth the wait! We had the rib eye special and it was really good. Our kids had the pancakes with sausage, also very tasty. Glad we decided to stop here for dinner on our way from chicago to Indianapolis. read more

Oh gosh, I don't even know where to start... Iron Skillet was a childhood favorite. I would go there to eat during birthdays and it was the absolute best! They are so nice! Recently, in my high school years, I began going there to work on homework and to get a delicious snack while I worked. It's totally recommended if you like an old fashioned meal! read more

Very good. Great fried chicken and good variety. Easy parking and clean restrooms. Friendly staff.

Was refused service at the iron skillet because server claimed she was too busy with a single order and after waiting several minutes she came back to the register. She told me to go find someone else to place my To go order at that point. I left at that point. Not sure on the reasoning behind it but to refuse service is flat out wrong. read more

The worst buffet I have ever eaten at! At $12.99 it is way overpriced! Food is cold, carrots were still raw, pudding is so watered down it has no flavor! Desserts were dried out. I would pass on this place! read more

Food Poisoning Alert!!! Ate here on New Year's Eve. Had the grilled salmon, cottage cheese and a trip to the salad bar. Got there around 8:30, finished eating and home by 9:30. By 11:00 I was plagued with viscous bouts of projectile vomiting and watery diarrhea. By 1:00, I was heaving, blood was coming out of both ends, and my hands and feet were "locking up" and cramping to the point of immobility. At this point I was rushed to the ER where it took 7 hours of medication, tests, and fluids to get me at least somewhat alive and functioning again. It is currently 48 hours later and I have yet to find the ability to stomach a single piece of food or anything besides sips of water. I still make frequent trips to the bathroom and have little to no energy to get off the couch. Once I am in full health again, the health department will be contacted and I will do every thing in my power to shut this illness breeding ground down!! I wouldn't wish this experience even on my worst enemy. Please, Stay away from here!!! McDonald's across the road is a much safer option!! read more

Food was pretty good, ordered breakfast items from the menu. Everything cooked as ordered. Friendly enough service, clean restrooms. Rating would have been higher if I hadn't had to listen to waitresses griping about management. Complain somewhere else please. read more

I had eaten at the Iron Skillet in Fargo a couple of times and the food and experience were good. At this location not good. The waitress was friendly but the food was horrible. I ordered the Chicken Fried steak. It took a fair amount of time to come out even though the place was not busy. My steak was cooked to a crisp. In fairness the waitress offered to get me another one but I declined as my wife had her food so either she could eat alone and then I do the same or I could suffer through it. I ask for extra heavy so I could swallow it. The waitress brought it and said she felt bad. I would have thought a discount or at least a dessert would have been in order. Nothing was offered. This experience has totally soured me on all Iron Skillets. read more
