This Mount Airy restaurant excels in food and service. The ambiance is a bit gritty for my taste,…read morebut tons of customers tolerate a dated interior to have great food and service. I shall return each time I go past Mount Airy. It's that good.

I had high hopes. The food and reviews looked good…read more We arrived and there was a full parking lot, always a good sign. We were sat quickly. The server was super nice. It was very cold where we were sitting and the server allowed us to move to a warmer spot. We ordered a fried mushroom appetizer. This was very good. They came with ranch and I think it was the horseradish sauce. The orangish sauce was very good. I ordered 1/2 rack of dry ribs with mac & cheese and green beans, and 2 hushpuppies. You get a choice of Texas toast, hushpuppies, or rolls. My coworker ordered salmon. When the food came out, my ribs were wet. I told the server that I had ordered dry rub. He stated they were dry but had sauce on them. I'm sorry, that is not a "dry rib", in my opinion. The first piece of rib meat I ate was soft and juicy. The next two were super dry and I could not eat any more of them. My coworker joked that that was probably what they were referring to when they said "dry rub". The green beans were ok. I added a ton of pepper and some hot sauce. I saved the mac & cheese for lunch the next day. The hushpuppies were dense and needed a little more flavor. My coworker commented that her salmon was ok but nothing to write home about. I should have went with my first instinct and ordered from the kids menu. The prices are very reasonable and the atmosphere is nice.

There is a lot of bashing Waffle Houses, and maybe some is justified. But, this Mount Airy 'House…read morewas pretty good in my book. We were treated as soon as we walked in, and everything looked clean throughout the resturant. The waitress was prompt and polite taking our drink orders. Our order can out quickly and was cooked just how we liked it. All in all it was a pleasant experience and I would definitely return. Granted we went in the morning around 9am, and didn't see the freak-show around midnight.

A friend and I came into this Waffle House for lunch. Apparently he has been here plenty, because…read morethey knew him. It was fairly sparse for a Friday lunch, and the place was clean. We were served by Autumn, who was really friendly and always there for us. I ordered an omelet with biscuit and gravy for a side. The omelet itself was good. The eggs were more fluffy than I usually have, not sure why, maybe just more whipped. I could be wrong, but the cheese seemed like the plasticky cheese product that come in the individual wrappers. That being said, it was good. I ordered the biscuit and gravy because I had never had either at a Waffle House. The biscuit was interesting, not southern style at all, very machine made in size and texture. Not bad, but not as good as I had hoped. The gravy was actually pretty good. Most places use a mix, and this may have been a mix, but it contained salt and tasted like greasy gravy... Not the best I've had, but decent. Having been to many Waffle House locations, I will be happy to come back to this one.

I was in Mount Airy visiting family and we decided to try Dodge City Steakhouse for dinner. I…read moreordered the 12-ounce ribeye steak, asking for it medium rare, but it came out more like medium well. Unfortunately, it didn't have much flavor, which was a bit disappointing. I also got a side salad--nothing special, but it was fresh and good (hard to mess up a salad). I ordered an unsweet iced tea, but what I got was so light it was almost clear--tasted more like water than tea. On a positive note, our server Gary was excellent--friendly, attentive, and probably the best part of the experience. I wouldn't rule this place out entirely; I might give it another shot in the future, hoping for a better steak next time.

Walked up and waiting for 5 minutes to be seated although the restaurant only had about 3 tables of…read morepeople. Once we were seated, we waited another 15 minutes before someone came to ask about drinks. We asked if we could go ahead and order and the waitress had to go back to the kitchen to get her notepad. Once ordered, food took nearly 40 minutes to come out. By then, my lunch break was over and I barely had a chance to eat. I ordered the pork chops which were over seasoned and undercooked. The ribs that my friend ordered were tough and the bbq sauce tasted a bit sour. The only thing I enjoyed were the warm rolls. This is sadly the third time we've had poor service and food. I tried to give this place a chance but they really need to hire help and hire people that have better customer service skills. Cooks are needed bad!
