Stopped in for a quick lunch and ordered the grilled cheese with fries. In my opinion, the grilled cheese is the best thing on the menu--grilled to perfection with just the right amount of butter. The French fries were hot, fresh, and a great complement to the sandwich. My wife ordered the daily special. Unfortunately, it wasn't quite as impressive. Most of the vegetables seemed like they came straight from a can and were simply heated up. The mashed potatoes were clearly instant rather than homemade. The lima beans were good but could have used a little more seasoning. On the positive side, the roast beef with gravy was a generous portion and tasted very good. Our server is there every time we visit. She's always friendly, attentive, and makes us feel welcome, which keeps us coming back. Even with a few shortcomings, we enjoy stopping here whenever we're in Gallatin and will definitely return. [[HIGHLIGHT]]That said, the facility is beginning to show its age. A renovation along with some fresh paint and updated woodwork would really improve the overall dining experience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Great and friendly staff. I've been here multiple occasions and have tried several different things. The Pancake Breakfast is by far my favorite. Great choice with the crispy bacon. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Small town country vibe plenty of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

The food is good, service is good but they don't own the building and who ever owns it needs to make repairs to it. Shame on the building owner for not helping these wonderful people. read more

it was good for the money but I'm out those tattooed waitresses killed it. Takes forever to get an order in and then you go to pay that's another 15 minutes. I'm done! read more

Outstanding! Was in town, and wanted something really great food, and didn't want one of the chain restaurants. Mable's looked like exactly what I wanted, and I'm happy to say that it didn't disappoint! Tge food was incredible. The prices were great. And the folks were really friendly. I'll definitely head back to Mable's again, when I'm in the area. read more

The food is always very good. Sweet potato casserole is awesome and the peach cobbler. Country fried steak is really good. Nice salad bar. Never ordered anything we did not like. Service is excellent. Prices are great. Ask for Macy. She is the best waitress. Highly recommend read more

Staff was inattentive and seemed bored. Food was just ok. Probably won't go back. Not located in a good part of town. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Whole place was very dated, & not in a trendy way.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Loved our Sunday morning after church routine going to Mable's for breakfast. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Mable's is a throw back to the good old days.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Good food, good prices. Kellie the server was the best way to start our day. She brought joy to us and many others that sat near us. However we learned she has been let go. We will no longer be visiting Mable's. We will spend our money wherever Kellie is serving. read more

My husband and I went in for a late breakfast. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We got exactly what I was looking for, down home casual, clean environment, nice waitress and good food at great prices.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will definitely revisit. read more

My husband and I were in Gallatin Saturday looking into natural burial and decided to grab a bite around 12:30pm so I looked this place up and we gave it a shot. LEt me tell you it's the best $4.99 you'll ever spend! That includes two nice size pancakes two eggs and probably five crispy strips of bacon on my plate. Everything came to order, came hot, came quickly and the coffee was fresh. The only reason I give this four stars is that the atmosphere might not be up to everyone's taste but if you're Gallatin and your hankering for breakfast this is the place to go. BEST $20 breakfast you will ever get for $4.99!! read more

I had the scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns and cinnamon raisin toast. The eggs were good and not overcooked. The bacon was perfect not too limp or too crisp. The hash browns were good but I would have liked a few more. Definitely will be back. read more

Although when you walk in it is very worn, it definitely needs some updating, but! Once you order your food, you'll be glad you came. We actually ordered the ribeye steak and eggs. The steak was cooked perfectly and it was an actual like approximate 6 ounce of ribeye a thin cut, but so tender eggs were cooked. Perfect. The biscuits were delicious.my wife had the hamburger which she loved and tater tots. Delicious. Our waitress was as nice as could be. read more

Great little place in Gallatin for a good meal with great prices. Our waitress was friendly and very sweet- she was hustling and must have had 6 other tables, yet she was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. They do a good carryout business too. I brought home a dinner for my husband who was working late and he enjoyed it. read more

Sunday morning, I am across the room from my table talking to a friend and my waitress sees me. She asks, "You want your usual?" She brings coffee and cups to my usual table and I say goodbye to my friend. How can your service get better than that? She is always smiling...always! Lately, I have been getting the veggie omelet with cheese. I can't resist it. The waitress remembers to mark it without onions. I use to get an egg over easy with hash browns and toast. The egg was always perfect. This place is for YOU! But then, I stopped in one weekday morning and found nearly the whole town there. Love this place! read more

Mable's Dining Room - American Near Me - Gallatin, Tennessee

Clearly a long established diner/meat-n-3 in Gallatin. I came here for breakfast. Seating is plentiful and eclectic. As soon as you settle in a waitress is there with the menu and gets your drink order. Upon her return we ordered basic breakfasts with eggs/meat/toast. All southern comfort food. We waited a little long for our food however the servers hustle and focus their attention on you when at your table. Breakfast is a busy time for Mables. My eggs were perfect but the country potatoes had been sitting too long (dry and hard). Apples were cooked til soft. almost no sugar or cinnamon added. I asked for my toast to be unbuttered and it wasn't. However, there were some service errors. The coffee cup was empty several times before a refill was offered and my request for honey was forgotten. I will probably come back but also recommend old Glory down the street. CASH ONLY read more

Mable's Dining Room - Breakfast sampler - American Near Me - Gallatin, Tennessee

Country fried steak, two eggs scrambled, hash browns, two biscuits with gravy for $5.99. The breakfast was hot and a good amount. The building is a little run down and the ceiling is in need of repair. The tables and floors were clean and ready for new customers rather quickly. Our waitress was very pleasant and attentive. Hometown food at its finest. This is definitely a place that locals frequently stop in for a meal at the best of prices. Friendly southern hospitality. read more

Location: Located in Gallatin, TN. Not hard to find off Google Maps Restaurant: Restaurant was clean, staff was friendly and was a nice place to be overall Food: The food was very delicious! I ended up getting the Country Fried Steak with sides and I didn't even need a knife to cut it because it was so tender. The staff was super friendly and refills came at all the right times. Issues: The only issue, but its understandable for smaller businesses, is that they do not accept Credit Card or Check Card. This is a cash/check only kind of place Would I recommend to a Friend?: Absolutely. I can't wait to go back again. read more

We found Mable's Dining Room in YELP. What a find!!! It's down to earth, down home, quaint, original and friendly. You'll look at the menu and keep looking back to review the LOW PRICES. The food was good and service great. It will now be a regular stop when we are on the Lake. $4.79 for the 3 French Toast, 2 eggs, 2 patty sausage and one biscuit with gravy. Really?! Enjoy!!!! read more

After reading other reviews I decided to give Mable's a try. I was looking forward to a scrumptious home cooked meal. I was sooooo disappointed! The only thing i have positive to say is the staff was super friendly! I had roast beef with gravy which was too salty, squash casserole that had the consistency of baby food and tasted like squash and mushroom soup, turnip greens with no flavor and Mac and cheese that was mediocre. So disappointed! My husband has pancakes and he said they were good, my dad had country ham and enjoyed it. So, I guess if you venture into Mable's your best bet is to have breakfast. read more

Mable's Dining Room - Roast beef with gravy, Mac& cheese, squash casserole, turnip greens looks way better than it tasted. - American Near Me - Gallatin, Tennessee

Had to wait an hour and half for my breakfast. Cheap food, bland taste. Staff is very disorganized

My family all had a great delish excellently prepared to everyone's request breakfast & everyone cleaned their plates... We were seated in a booth that we picked & a very friendly efficient server came over quickly, brought us drinks & took our order... Country fried steak & gravy with hash browns (2 orders), Tenderloin, scrambled eggs & French Texas toast, sunny side up eggs & bacon... Has a most outstanding well stocked item variety salad bar also... Rustic looking but has plenty of seating big tables for large family or group & booths for seating four... Server kept coming to table to see if we needed anything & kept all drinks full... Overall if your hungry & want plentiful good meals this is the place... Highly recommend Mable's Dining Room.... read more

This place was cute. I came here with Brad when we were on our way to the Totality of the Eclipse (turn around, bright eyes) and it was wicked busy. The food was decent and the service was okay - I am giving them a hard pass on judging the service because it wasn't a regular day. From the way they handled the busy, busy morning I am sure they can handle regular traffic. The food was a step up from say a Cracker Barrell or other similar breakfast spot that isn't lighting the world on fire but is the standard breakfast offerings you'd hope for. Yeah, sometimes I want you to get creative but sometimes it is how Melissa describes a Hallmark Movie: it's okay to get creative but we don't want you to stray too far from the formula. I don't see myself back in Gallatin (which is too bad, it was a charming place) but if I did I would know this place is good and worth a second visit. read more

Filthy. Old sign on bathroom door says "Don't use sink, hand sanitizer available." And then a stained sign over sink says "employees must wash hands". ??? All doors haven't been cleaned in months. Black stains from dirt hands. One door looks like it's never been cleaned. Waitress wiped our table (only after requesting it) with a filthy rag. Food took forever and was cold. Service was abysmal. This place will get someone sick. Stay Clear! read more

We've lived in Gallatin for 4 years but never tried this place until today. We went because so many people praise it on social media. Boy were we disappointed. The building is an old, run down and dirty cinder block building. There was mold on the ceiling. The room is dark and musty and lit with exposed fluorescent lights, many of which were not working. We stood there for 20 minutes waiting for a table to be bused, and without a single acknowledgement from the staff. Finally we left, hungry and frustrated. We will not be back and we do not recommend this place to anyone. Oh. They only accept cash or check. I mean, it is only the 21st century, people. read more

Can't beat the prices. I felt like I was taken back to the 80's. $4.99 for three full pieces of French Toast, Bacon & two eggs. A side of hash browns cost $1,29. A side of sausage gravy was $.79. An 8oz glass of milk cost $1.39. I personally didn't care for the bacon or French toast. The biscuits and gravy were okay. The Country Fried steak was good though. read more

My family ate there yesterday and at the end of the meal the server brings the check and then says my throat is sore, my husband is sick at home with COVID-19 and my mother-in-law was hospitalized and has recovered from COVID-19 .. furious .. why would someone be working that is sick and not tell people before they order!! read more

After trying to find a place all morning to eat that has any room, we walk in with high hopes that this would be a good place. There were several tables that needed to be cleaned off. The waitress went and looked at them and saw that we were trying to find a seat. Nobody would clean them off. And then she came to us and told us "it's gonna be a long wait, I would go somewhere else." Because she's too lazy to clean off a table for us. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. read more

Well we found this little place on a drive. We arrived at 1045 am received food at 1130, but the order was given to wrong table and the guy moved the toast off the plate and she then tried to offer to us. Table had some jelly paks unopened and moved one it had gravy all under. Should have left, but it was a very busy place so we stayed to see what the food tasted like. Country ham, biscuits and gravy, grits and home fried potatoes was one order the other a veggie omelet add ham with a water and an unsweet tea. Men's Bathroom did not have soap, women's did. Waitresses wore masks, were friendly, but ours was totally off--maybe she had too many tables and she was very apologetic. Food was tasty, but it seems no one knows how to make grits anymore! Country ham was cooked perfectly and biscuits and gravy were good. Husband said omelet was hot--well yea it was the second one and just came out. He said it tasted fine. Price for all was $11. Busy local place. Unheard of low prices, food was good, but my clothes still smell of the foods being served. Would I ever go back... read more
