They offer grill type food with hamburgers and french fries and onion rings, cheese sticks, jalapeño poppers, etc. and then they also have steak nights as well as catfish, and even Tex-Mex food available. The service is friendly and fast and the people here act like they know you even if they don't ha ha. Most people do know one another because it's a place where locals are regular customers and the wait staff are mostly long-term employees.

Ambiance Typical family diner Food The servers inability to understand the difference between over medium and over well is shocking since this is where she "works". The ham n cheese omelet was good. Large pieces of ham that were at times tough and not tasty. The hash browns were over done and lacked much flavor. The chicken fried chicken n eggs. Was pretty good. The chicken breading was okay. Other than the egg issue mentioned above. Overall Servers clearly need training as well as the line (short order) cooks do. What the customer asks for SHOUID ALWAYS be the goal in what is presented. The establishment has removed the military discount... shows a great lack of concern for our military. Military Nope!

The first chicken wings we got were a respectable size, the sauces were good, the ribs were better. The chicken strips were good, big and meaty.

We went by last Saturday, the wings portion of the menu was missing, and the place appeared closed.

For dessert we were served both a Chocolate Pie, as well as a Banana Cream Pie, along with coffee. It was such an inviting experience and definitely made me feel as though I was a part of their family's dinner. It was truly special! I'd absolutely recommend trying this at some point! Do note that this is a cash only operation, and you do need to make a reservation well in advance via phone.

Prairie Lane Bakery is a family-owned Amish eatery about a mile east of Highway 69 just outside…read moreChouteau, OK. A dirt road leads to its blink-and-you'll-miss-it door. No signs declare its existence. My wife and I found ourselves there for a meeting with her coworkers, one of whom has been a longtime frequenter of this establishment and recommended it as the site for the group's monthly dinner. She had made the reservation (required, for parties of at least 15) and had also been the one to choose our meal. I'm told the business can accommodate for many different allergies or diets and that they have a wide selection of meats, vegetables/sides, and desserts from which you can take your pick. The dining hall is in a nondescript white building across from the main house. It is far from fancy in keeping with the lifestyle of its proprietors. As in tin-metal walls, concrete floor, and gas-powered lights/heat. Metal folding chairs flank two long rows of folding tables covered in plastic tablecloths; our party of 12 sat in one row with a few seats to spare. The atmosphere is that of having a Sunday supper after church with kinfolk at grandma's. The (rather adorable) children of the (hardworking) women preparing and serving our food played along the borders of the room and ran through the doors, the air ringing with their laughter. Drinks (water or unsweetened tea only) were served as we arrived. Once everyone was present the food came out family-style - one large platter or bowl at a time, passed from one person to another. And now what you've all been waiting for: the food! The coleslaw wasn't very good; then again, I'm not a coleslaw fan and so might not be a good judge of it. The green beans could've come from a can for all the good they tasted. And the roast was dry, tasteless. That's where the negatives end. The baked chicken was tender/moist/juicy, all those words that make some people uncomfortable when talking period, let alone about food. The mashed potatoes were creamy, the white gravy perfectly rich, the country noodles expertly flavored, and the turkey dressing pure cheesy goodness. I can't forget the rolls, too, which when paired with homemade apple butter were the best I've ever had. After a brief rest to digest, we were served one kind of coffee and two kinds of pie - cherry and coconut cream. The cherry pie filling reminded me of a Pop-Tart but more intense, which wasn't a bad thing at all. Typically I don't like even the word coconut unless it's followed by "rum and pineapple juice", but that particular pie was delicious. It may have made me a convert. I haven't mentioned the service, but it was fantastic. Glasses never more than half-empty before being refilled. Constant questions of whether we needed anything else. Smiling faces and good conversation. We ate until we were stuffed and several people took home heaping to-go boxes, yet there was still a ton left of each food item. On the way out I picked up a loaf of banana but bread from the bakery side. The damage to my wallet for all of this? $27.59! Yep. All-you-can-eat comfort food for two in a place that feels like home for under $30. I'm definitely going back. Just as soon as I can round up 10-12 likeminded foodies so I can make a reservation.

Everything was incredibly tasty. The owner was very friendly unhelpful and it was fun to read up on the history of the railroad car.

It provides an unique environment with a folksy vibe. The railroad car does not look as clean and crisp as their web page photo and it's been painted what appears to be a dark burgundy. It was dark and raining so it's hard to say on the color. Inside is cozy and comfortable. It's a neat venue. The menu consists of typical American comfort food, at least for the south.

It takes a lot of time and craft to make good biscuits and gravy and it's much easier to get the pre packaged biscuits and a 5 gallon bucket of gravy. But MAN does it make a difference. I will have to say the country potatoes were deep fried to perfection and crunchy. And prices were good. I'll like to come back and try their sweet cream pancakes. So that's my honest opinion.

Interesting art on the walls. Plus, for drinks, they have something for everyone. Classic soda drinkers can get a homemade soda. Hot tea drinkers can get a loose leaf pot. Even milk for the kids. Servers were attentive but not overly so, knowledge about the menu, and willing to work with us on changes. The owner oriented us to the menu. Major bonus : while we waited for the food, we shopped at the mercantile general store attached they also own that has some really special whole food / locally sourced items.

We didn't realize they were closing at 8:00. We were sat, usual procedure. We ordered an appetizer and our food. Enjoyed the fried mushrooms. Our dinner came, it was great. They turned up the lights and the barrage began. It seemed attentive at first, then got really annoying. We're closing the salad bar, do you want anything from it? Can I get you anything else? Can I get you to-go drinks? Are you ready for your ticket? Here's your ticket. Is there anything else? Can I take any of your plates? At that point I'm done. Take all the plates. I'm not enjoying this anymore. As my husband was calmly explaining that if you let us in the door, we should be allowed to eat; I'm fuming and paying the bill and stomping out, because I can't be contained when I'm upset. I just shouldn't talk. When we first walked in the door, if they'd told us that they're closing soon, fine! We will just go somewhere else! No problem. We've both worked in restaurants and hated when guests walk in at closing! The food is good. I'm sick at my stomach about how we were treated. Hubby said we would be back. He might be back alone.

We give a restaurant three tries before deciding, unless it's amazing (or horrible). However, they…read morealways get 2 tries even if they aren't good the first time. The chicken strips and onion rings are by far Coyle's shining moment. They are absolutely on point in size and flavor! This is what's had us coming back several times over the last few weeks (we live close and poultry is one of our only options for meat due to food allergies). Tonight, we decided to try the catfish. We opted out of the beans, due to a pork allergy (alpha gal) and fries (we can make them at home). The good news is the catfish & the coleslaw were good. However, the size of the catfish , followed by the up charge for the okra ( a $1.00 up charge of something we didn't receive) is atrocious. Now let's discuss the chicken strip meal tonight. I was charged $2.50 extra for (maybe) Kraft Mac & Cheese. If it isn't Kraft it's Great Value. Then, why exactly is okra a $1.00 up charge if I opted out of the gravy and the mashed potatoes and gravy? Correct the pricing and weigh the fish or lose business. A $42.00 check just isn't worth it.
