    Visiting from Kansas City
    Jamal H.

    Everything was great and flavorful with great service!! Thank you again keep up the great work

    Rueben Sandwich
    Kelly 'n Michele P.

    A nice small town restaurant with an old fashion feel. Had a buffet of fried chicken and roast beef with mashed potatoes/gravy and corn/green beans along with a salad bar. But I opted for the rueben sandwich as it is on of my go to when gaging a places food. The rueben did not disappoint! Wasn't try and had just the right amount of messy goodness to it. Fries came with it and were good fresh crispy fries. Tried an onion ring that was excellent but would never be able to finish an order along with a sandwich. Quantities are large. Service prompt and friendly. Atmosphere welcoming and clean, love the curved booths that sit 4 comfortably.

    It took 45 minutes to be served a subpar breakfast. Place needs a cook and a good cleaning.

    While driving across Kansas we wanted to find a locally owned small town cafe versus a chain.

    Carolyn's Essenhaus is a true gem on the Kansas prairie. Located just southwest of Salina along…read moreState Highway 61, it's well worth a stop at almost any time of day. They're open from 6:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Monday, Thursday, and Friday, and until 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday and Saturday. They're closed on Sundays. After a long day on the road traveling from Las Cruces, New Mexico, to Salina, Kansas, we arrived around 6:00 p.m. on a Monday evening. We were more than ready for a break. We had found Carolyn's Essenhaus on Yelp, and from the photos and reviews, it looked like just the kind of place we were hoping to find. Inside, the restaurant was much larger than we expected. The dining room was filled with local artwork, charming Kansas memorabilia, comfortable tables and booths, and a classic salad bar prominently displayed in the center. Table service was friendly, warm, and welcoming--like enjoying dinner in your grandmother's kitchen. My wife ordered the chopped steak topped with cheese and grilled onions, served with green beans and sweet potato fries. I chose one of the local favorites, essentially a hearty patty melt featuring a grilled burger, grilled onions, and a thick slice of grilled ham. Both entrées were excellent, but the real star of the meal was the salad bar--especially if you appreciate an old-fashioned, homemade selection. It instantly reminded me of family potlucks with all my aunts and uncles. There was macaroni salad, cottage cheese, potato salad, broccoli raisin salad, a sweet and creamy chopped cucumber salad, and plenty of other homemade favorites. It was so good that I went back for a second small plate and happily told our server to charge me for the extra trip. To finish the meal, we couldn't resist taking two slices of their homemade coconut cream pie to go. It was every bit as delicious as the rest of the meal. Before heading out, we picked up a few of their homemade cookies from the front counter, paid what we thought was a very reasonable bill, and continued our journey with full stomachs and smiles. If your travels ever take you near Arlington, Kansas, do yourself a favor and make time for Carolyn's Essenhaus. It's the kind of place that reminds you why small-town restaurants are often the most memorable stops on any road trip.

    Seat yourself, waited on quickly. Hot coffee, food arrived soon and was delicious!…read more A little out of the way, but so worth the drive!!
