4 stars for breakfast....it's the best one in town. The atmosphere is cozy, with real dining room furniture, antique dishes and teapots for decor, and lots of freshly baked goods. The tea is served in a real teapot with an antique teacup, with a choice of herbal and decaf teas. The Mennonites that own the place are nice, and the food is very much like what they cook at home. Not much in terms of spices, kinda bland dinners for my taste, but I use a lot of spices and seasonings in my cooking. The majority of the others I've eaten with have really enjoyed it. The one exception is the nachos...like another reviewer said below, the gal I was with had two bites and pushed it away, saying it tasted sugary sweet. I love meeting friends here for a nice cup of tea and either breakfast or a dessert. It's a relaxed setting, so don't go if you're in a rush. But for anyone craving food like Grandma used to make, this is the place. read more

No! Tried it 2 times. Once for breakfast and the pancakes had onions and grill greas in them. When back to try lunch and the soup was nasty and service was spotty at best. The mix of tables and chairs feel more like you sitting on garbage picked furniture. read more

Home made bread! The food is good home cooked substantial meals. They're So amaZing. They memorize your order & they don't make out tickets. They will literally memorize every order even if it's a large party! I like to watch them think The atmosphere is relaxed, safe, very friendly, and the staff treats you like family. read more

Delicious homemade food right down to the hamburger buns. Very generous portions and friendly service. Enjoy the vintage solid wood tables and chairs that make you feel like you are sitting at grandma's dinning room table. read more

Yum yum yum. Breakfast bar was great, especially the eggs. The boy that was our waiter was very not ten years old when I'm writing this and I think that it's great that he is working, just trying to make some money read more

The food is always amazing when I come here and the service is amazing they are my first choice when I go anywhere in Sandusky Mi

The best place in the area for "home cooked style" food. Very nice people, good service and fair priced.

New the last week of April 2015. The restaurant is owned and operated by Mennonites which is evident in the decor and excellent home cooked meals. The restaurant features a full breakfast menu (served all day) along with a nice selection of sandwiches for lunch. My wife and I ordered a 1/2 Focaccia Bread Panini intending to split it yet we still ended up bringing half of it home. The french fries they serve are homemade and they leave it to the customer to season them to taste, which we appreciated. They are located on a side street off of M46 in Sandusky. They don't have a sign at the road yet but you'll find the connecting road on the North side of the highway, between the Westpark Motor Inn and Jerry's Foodland. They are closed Sunday and Monday and may be contacted at 810-404-4040. read more

5 stars service was amazing and the kid that served us was amazing. Food was decent but my favorite was biscuits and gravy

Really wish yelp would of notified me there was a response to my review. My apologies to the Dining room. I'm looking forward to stopping in soon. Again my apologies for my mistake read more

Recently ate here for the first time. Having been out of the area for the last little while, I am happy to have learned of this establishment. Being just off the main drag might make it harder to spot right away, but I thoroughly enjoyed my time there. We had the pizza, and felt that was very fresh, and high quality. I can't wait to stop in again and try their other menu items. Service was good as well, with fun decor that gave me feelings of nostalgia. read more

i just don't like the the food waiting was horrible 30 minutes and food was cold the workers are assholes and i reckoned this a one if i could 0 read more

We stay at the Westpark Inn for business regularly, so we decided to give this new restaurant a try. Okay...so here is the skinny...what appears to be a home cooking based place, nice and cozy, staff kind of put off by the two of us, not friendly, other diners were apparently known and were treated with white glove care. Our service ,although adequate, was just that, adequate. It seems by the looks of the delicious pastries for sale at the counter, that breakfast is their strong suit. We unfortunately went for dinner. The salad bar was not temperature controlled, or if it was, the ice had long since melted. I was going to have some of the macaroni salad, but upon bringing the spoon up and out of it, there was a very well defined darker scab like layer on top...yuck. I ordered the pork roast special..$12.00 plus 2 more for the salad bar..one piece of pork "jerky" 2 inch by 4 inch. Mashed potatoes were similar to hot tapioca pudding, slimy. Peas and carrots were dried out and shriveled on top, whole plate was lukewarm at best. No bread offered. Beverages served in cans?? I attempted to eat the pork special, but with 3\4 of it still on my plate I pushed it to the side ..companions panini. $10.99 with no fries!! Total bill 32.00 for a plate of garbage, 1 small panini and two cans of diet cola...oops,..forgot the two hot salad bars. I would say that their niche must be breakfast, because the rest of what I saw delivered to other tables, was as bad looking as ours was. We paid and left, not wanting to hurt the Mennonite ladies feelings, even though we felt like aliens being waited on the whole time. Since it is a small town, we just didn't want to cause a ruckus in the restaurant. If that meal had been brought to me in a larger city, I would have stood up and left. But hey, all the baked goods looked fabulous, should have ordered brownies for dinner! read more

What a quaint place! It is definitely an atmosphere to relax in! The service was nice, the food was fabulous-all home cooked and locally grown produce! The baked goods are Mennonite homemade and delicious!! It is a hidden gem! I especially enjoyed all the antique tables and chairs, along with the dishes that reminded me of my grandma! read more

The food is amazing and home made and prices are unbeatable. They are very friendly and welcoming- we come here every time we come to Sandusky. read more

I hate to write bad reviews but. If this place is still open this time next year I'll be amazed. Just beautiful inside and nicely decorated and very clean. That's the end of the good.. VERY DISAPPOINTING. ....... Breakfast was all I tried to get. I over ordered just to try some of the items on the menu. Prices that are 10 to 15% above normal for this area.. $9.75 for a all meat 3 egg omelet. Ordered 1/2 order of biscuits and gravy and it was cold and out of a can.. no idea of what eggs over medium should be. Cooked hard and cold. Hash browns that where more like leftover mashed potatoes and re-cooked. The homemade breakfast sausage was a tube of grease and gristle and just pork no spices. And instead of toasting the bread, it was grilled on one side and tasted like the onions that where on the grill before. All of this after a 40 minute wait with only about 10 people in the hole place.. If I could give this place a minus star's it would be about -4 out of 5 ..... 1 for clean! read more

Doesn't even deserve ONE star. Worst meal I have ever had. Not to mention that one sloppy joe is $7.99. For ONE! Which was cold and nasty. Ordered fries with it, since nothing came with it, which were $4.99 with chili sauce...which were cold. Another thing which was totally weird and rude was that they put us in a room all by ourselves away from the four people in the room by the cashier. I mean we shower, it's not like we smell! We will NEVER come back. read more

I can only base this on what we ordered. I ordered nachos supreme and the ingredients were fresh, but it had a funny sweet taste to it and hardly any meat at all. I only had a few bites and just was not enjoying the taste. My husband ordered sausage gravy over biscuits. It was a huge unappetizing amount and it was only lukewarm. It tasted like canned meat or meat out of a jar - not very good. After they re-warmed it, we took it to go and promptly threw it in the trash. The quality of the food was not at all what we expected. read more

This is a new restaurant in town run by a menonite family. It is very charming in decor and has good home town food. We had ribs last night with with mashed potatoes- they were very good! read more

Prices are what you would typically find at Big Boy as was the experience. Was not a huge fan of the fries. I have made home made fries before and they weren't as soggy, had better texture and flavor. Cheeseburger with most of the toppings ordered. Tomato was either from the day before or from an overly ripe one. Did not taste right at all. The decor is beautiful as are all of the carnival glassware and EAPG pieces. The waitress was the only one who spoke with us and we there were only 2 tables taken, ours included. My friend ordered the biscuits and gravy and was disappointed as well as her bacon being under cooked. Figured we would give it a shot since it was new but we will be sticking with our usual choice of Bob & Jamies Grill across from the courthouse. read more

So sorry to have to write this review. It was encouraging to see the Mennonite ladies in the back cooking. Alas, that went down in flames---fast. First, it was hot and stuffy in there. There was no air-conditioning on---I sat there suffering though out the meal. The meal that I ordered was sausage gravy over biscuits. The gravy was not even remotely seasoned and it was runny in places. The biscuits were not light and savory. The ham that was in the gravy looked liked Spam and the bacon was undercooked. The service was adequate. She was not un-friendly but she wasn't friendly either. When my water glass was refilled --it wasn't done correctly. Usually it is dumped and then replaced with fresh ice and nice cold water...No... it was refilled to be sure but it was room temperature. Needless to say, I was not pleased and for the prices they charged it was really a crying shame. If there was a rating system of zero I would have given it. The place may be pretty but the quality of the food and the service needs to be revamped and vastly improved. read more
