    Ahhh, Maid Rite. It'd been a minute since my last visit (which, undoubtedly, had been in some Iowa gas station). This, however was the full-blown "Maid Rite experience", in a long+time freestanding restaurant. It was exactly as expected; friendly counter girls, seasoned wait staff and an atmosphere that looked like it had gotten lost in the 60's. In other words, it was wonderful! I had two Maid Rites that were freshly maid, hot, and tasty as hell. Skipped the sides, but I had an ice cold Diet Coke which went down smoothly. I wish I had tried one of the pies, though. They had around 8 types available and they're freshly baked in house (or nearby). Just as I remembered it, it was a delicious lunch! I'm craving another visit but, alas, there are no locations in Florida and Iowa isn't on my radar in the near future. Too bad... I could be a regular!

    Some things never change. Every time I visit Quincy I have to get a Maid Rite and I love the crinkle fries!!

    Maid Rite is a step back in time. I don't know how to say it any different so let me explain. The menus are on the old push in letter boards, you place your order where it is then written on a brown paper bag with your name, the order is shouted out so the cooks can hear, the total is tallied by hand and a chart is referenced, for tax you pay in cash only and your change is reverse counted back to you, your order is bagged and your name is called out. Once this process is completed you sit and enjoy the exceptionally prepared food. And by all means, try the pie! Maid Rite is truly an experience that just happens to include great food.

    Iowa chain with an "old time-y feel", that specializes in ground beef sandwiches. All of the people working there when I went were old women, which added to the "old time-y feel" Sandwiches come in 3 sizes, and with the option to add cheese, pickles, and onion. I got the medium size with all of the toppings and it was delicious but very messy, as most of the meat fell out of the sandwich. Have a basic diner menu with other options as well, including a wide range of sides. I got sides of French fries and cauliflower, and, to my surprise, the cauliflower was fried! This makes me believe that all of the sides are fried, but I could be wrong. Menu is on the wall above the counter where you order. Also have a lot of pie and milkshake options. 8/10

    My husband use to eat here years ago, not very good anymore regret going here today, since i have never been here cant say i have anything to compare but i know i will not be going back. For zucchini they give you four little chips and they didn't taste very good, the maid rite sandwich was slider size but for the price you should get at least 2. And just okay my don says mine are better save your time and money.

    No Covid precautions

    Workers not wearing mask. Very unsafe. Will not be back. What kind of management allows this? Please get your restaurant up to par. This is unacceptable

    Maid rite started in IOWA 1926 and continued Newton IA 1927, Marshalltown IA 1928. They have tried it up here in Owatonna MN and failed, they wanted Way to much $$

    Gave a 2 star because the service sucks but the food is good. Order your maid rite dry unless you like grease.

    I ordered QDOBA pickup yesterday after looking at the menu and I was interested in some chips /…read moreguacamole and the build your own 3 taco plate. The food was ready for pickup very quickly which was great, but I was disappointed by the portion size of the tacos. The taco shells themselves were large, but they definitely skimped on the filling. I ordered shredded pork, cheese and pico salsa but I expected there to be more of everything in each taco. There was for sure a full bite across the whole top of the taco without any fillings in it. For $11, I expected more, especially considered how Chipotle does it! The flavor was good but next time I would try something different.

    I come here at least twice per month, and every time I visit the chicken is over-charred. This is…read morethe only location I've ever been to that uses a half or third cup spoon to portion their chicken, which forces almost every customer to order double meat. They charge for extra Mexican street corn, but if you order it on the app it won't charge you. Overall the quality of the food besides the chicken is good, but the above mentioned items make me hesitate to eat here when I visit the Quincy location.
