    Talk about finding a diamond in the rough! Definitely found it here! Place is fabulous! I was…read moredoing some traveling during the week and decided to stop for a bite to eat. Service was fantastic! Waitress was very attentive and checked on me frequently! I ordered the KC Strip-Surf and Turf! Steak was perfect! It was super tender, seasoned great, and cooked perfectly to my liking! Growing up raising livestock I'm very particular about meat, especially beef! I found out they buy from a local farmer and cut their steaks fresh daily, which you could sure tell the difference too! I also had a loaded baked potato that came with actual "real" bacon on it and not just the fake bacon bits. Side salad and roll were also good. Ice tea was freshly brewed as well. Grilled shrimp was okay. Great place to watch sports. Bar is located as you first walk in and then they have the restaurant portion available too. TV's available all around to watch sports and/or news! Decorated up nice. Highly recommend!

    We were in Abilene to meet up with some family and this place was recommended as a great local…read morespot. I feel like in each small town there are often some great hidden gems that the locals frequent and this is definitely one for Abilene. The M&R is unpretentious, and welcoming, but also clean and friendly. I was impressed at how kind the staff was, even to a bunch of out of towners, as I could tell the place was largely full of locals. The food we had was good, and fresh, and it was overall a great spot to meet up. I'd definitely consider it if looking for a local restaurant again in the area.

    I grew up eating here and have great memories of the place. It's been a few years so I was excited…read moreto have a chance to stop in for breakfast while passing through town this morning. The place is exactly how I remember it. Small town hole in the wall charm upfront, dated attempt at upscale in back. Like a reverse mullet. But in a charming way. The waitress was friendly and she kept the coffee coming. The coffee was excellent and the best part of the meal. I got the chicken fried steak and eggs. They had brown gravy on request which is always a big plus in my book. (White gravy is just sausage stuck in flour paste in my book, but that might just be me) The eggs and toast were cooked perfectly and delicious. But the steak sadly was well overdone and the breaking burned black. As a result it was dry as can be and had a bitter burned taste. The gravy helped but we were 2 steps from cremation so not enough. The people I was with got an excellent omelette and a single pancake that was as big as a dinner plate. All great food on their report. I would go back in a heartbeat. Not going to hold 1 bad item against them. Plus for me the nostalgia was off the charts.

    I guess this is a new business or family new. I stumbled across it on a Foodie group and it looked…read moreso good that I decided to take the 20 minute drive up to the Flint Hills just so I could try it out. I am telling you it is well worth it! Other then it being a little loud in the back room all the food is made from scratch and the salad dressings are house made as well. I hear the prime rib is amazing as well which is available on Friday's. My favorite part was probably the homemade salad dressing, the salad is fresh which is nice for a change. Another thing is they do not skimp on the portion size. The potatos under the huge chicken fried steak is so good! You cannot go wrong with the burnt ends drowned in the barbeque sauce either. Any other questions?

    The atmosphere at this establishment was great. Not too loud, and the seating was nice and open…read more Since I am a huge fan of chicken fried steak, I opted to give it a shot. The presentation was excellent, as the fried steak was served on top of mashed potatoes. For my side, I selected cheesy potatoes. The cheesy potatoes weren't very impressive, just hash browns and cheese. The chicken fried steak was cooked perfectly. The gravy was average. Didn't have that country style gravy taste, which unfortunately couldn't compliment the perfectly cooked chicken fried steak. An individual in my party noticed a clear substance on the lip of my water glass. We wiped the substance off of the glass and noticed it was pink and sparkly. Our reasonable guess was this was lip stick or lip gloss. Upon further review, a second party also noticed this on this glass. It was a slight appetite killer, and not a good first impression. Our waiter was great, but was unable to answer a few of our questions regarding the menu. She stated she was new, which is completely fine. This may be a good opportunity for them to review the menu, and learn what beers are on tap/drinks are offered. Lastly, our order took quite a bit longer than what was expected. We were the second party in the establishment, so a 25-30 minute wait seemed a bit excessive. Overall, I recommend 3 out of 5 stars. Since we drove 30 minutes to eat, the food was good, but not good enough to drive out again.
