I'm always surprised how she knows so many of her customers by their first names and even what their go to meals are. It's always posted when Ducks will be closed. This is a small town restaurant and life happens, people get sick and family time matters! If you want to eat somewhere that never closes..even if they are short staffed and you'll wait forever for your food, then go drive to Columbus for lunch. If you want the hometown feeling and the best cheese burger around, that's Beth's and Duck's Trolly!

For as long as I can remember my family and I have visited this restaurant and had looked forward…read moreto out weekly visits. So, what I write below brings me NO pleasure. But, this place has changed and not for the better - I need to share why: Over the last couple of years the consistency in their food has gone from five stars to 1 for us and today was the last time we will ever go back and here is why: Service: Most of the people working there neither smile or greet you like they used to (even when the place is empty), they shove your plates at you across the counter and disappear. They girl (younger) seems to not comprehend the idea of focusing on taking the order and you have to repeat it over and over (it's still came out wrong - even when there is no customers?). Food: I loved their burger and fries - 3 time I have gone this month (busy, medium busy and no customers at different times in the day.) and all three times it has NOT been even close to what it was. For example: The hamburger meat falls apart the minute you bite into it, the bun is soaking wet with grease, the cheese causes everything to slide off (should you choose lettuce, tomato and etc). It actually becomes more like an accidental deconstructed hamburger than a real burger. The French Fries! They were awful: Burnt and the stale tasting (the oil was so old tasting - I almost threw up.) The fries also were hard as a rock! I have no idea what has caused the decline in portion size, flavors and overall cooking at this restaurant - but it is heartbreaking in a small town who seemed to spend time and money at this place. I would not recommend this place right now... Maybe they will fix the problem soon. I really hope they do.

I've enjoyed their fried catfish fillets but have also seen customers complain they were fried for too long and became hard. The fried tenders are usually very good and their chicken bites are tossed in their homemade sauces. They are amazing if they haven't been sitting out for too long. The staff is collectively very inexperienced and doesn't know how to go about accommodating customer's complaints. The environment is very friendly and welcoming.

My daughter in law couldn't bite them either, it was too hard. I hope they get a cook that can once again cook fish the way they used to.

When I search reviews on a business before going, I don't just accept them at face value, but rather, read them and determine if the reviewers are just entitled brats. lol Now that being said: here we go... ha ha This place was the worst experience I can recall with a business in nearly 50 years of life. It was very cold outside, and looking at the online pics looked like it was open-air seating only. So I called them to ensure there was also indoor seating at this cool looking bar. It was 8pm. The man reassured us there were indoor seating options. He then asked "are ya'll coming tonight?" I replied that we were. He then said "how long?" I then asked what time they closed. He replied at 10pm. A little perplexed, I let him know we were on the way. Red flag #1. I told my husband I didn't want to feel rushed out the door if they were trying to close early and didn't really get the vibe they wanted our business. He suggested we just give them a try anyway. When we pulled up, we noticed maybe 3 cars in the parking lot of this very big property. Red flag #2. As we entered the hotel, the gentleman asked us if we called about the bar. We said yes and he directed us to the entrance doors. The entrance was essentially the exit... to the outdoors. HAHA It was approx 40 degrees outside. As my husband and I looked a little perplexed, a female approached where we were standing, never even looked at us or acknowledged us in ANY way and said to the gentleman, "WHAT DO THEY WANT?" He informed her we were there for the bar. We asked where the indoor seating was. Y'ALL... this man took us back in the hotel lobby and pointed at the lobby area. You want us to eat a late dinner and have drinks at this cool looking bar, but in actuality we sit where patrons eat their continental breakfast and are served by someone who has all but said "why are you here?" What?? So... my husband and I said no thank you and went to Cowboy Town which is a very short drive away. Please go there instead. Great food and drinks with a super cool small town vibe, live music, and barrel racing most weekends. Maybe when the weather is warm and the pool is open, The View would be a cool establishment. But it needs to be seasonal only and absolutely closed the remainder of the year. Bless it. I do believe the reviews you see are mostly BS. Please pay very close attention to the details of them.

I was really looking forward to having the short rib. Unfortunately when we were seated our waitress told us they didn't have it that day. While ordering drinks my husband was ordering beer and he was told they didn't sell what he was asking for. Even though it was listed on the menu. He ended up ordering whatever the waitress suggested and we ordered the shrimp cocktail while we looked over the menu. The shrimp cocktail was very good. For dinner I ordered the filet with lobster and my husband the Pork shank. My filet came out overcooked but was promptly fixed. The lobster was amazing ! My husband wasn't a big fan of the pork. We did order a cheesecake for dessert that was also really good. Overall our experience was pleasant but food wise not what I'd expected from the other reviews. However the service was great. The owner is so nice and spent time socializing at each table. He even came to make sure my second set of fillets were good to go. Our waitress is also very nice. I can see us trying this place out again. Hopefully on a night they have short rib.

As another fellow yelper stated, it's a greasy spoon kind of place. Everyone knows everyone and if…read moreyou're new, they all know it. My review is of breakfast. This area is a hard sell when it comes to restaurants, there are some town staples here, but they really aren't all that great. If you grew up eating it or what was being cooked at home was bad, then most of the places here wouldn't be all that bad to you...if those two aren't factors, then everything falls flat. Biscuits aren't scratch made. They aren't too bad though, little on the dry side..but edible. Plus side-They do use real eggs..so I will give them that..their competitors down the way certainly don't. The omelets are a little light on the egg, the ham inside is lunch meat ham and the veggies are small diced. The grits were well prepared in terms of done-ness but they don't season their grits either-but they do butter them after plating...so I'll give them some grace. I get there are two camps of grit people...salt and pepper vs. butter and sugar......but come on SALT makes things taste better, at the very least they should have salt and be made with some cream-IMO. Sausage is decent quality food service and the ladies on the griddle didn't overcook them. Hash browns are copy and paste the sausage. Overall this place is better than other places around here, it certainly lacks in the what it could be department. On the fence about coming back.
