“We live right down the road and love to support a family buisness. The food is PHENOMENAL! Friendly customer service. Cute 'homey' type feel for dining inside. We will certainly see you guys again soon. Thank you for your excellent service!!“
“Great food, awesome owners, nice local diner. Always friendly.Update 2/20/2024. Under new management, same folks that own the Americana in Matthews, food is fantastic, restaurant has been spruced up, I'm so glad that it's back open. The new folks are super nice, dining area is clean. I cannot say enough about the food, country style steak and mashed potatoes, fried squash and green beans, delicious, absolutely delicious.“
“This place has my favorite cheeseburgers ever! They're so soft, juicy, and melt in your mouth with the cheese...I'm getting hungry just thinking about them. Their banana caramel milkshake is also a top 3 favorite ice cream of mine. Although, servers could use some more training because every time I'm there they're either extremely slow or mess something, but they're still very nice. For example, one time they messed up my order twice because the server wasn't understanding what I was wanting. I never complained, but they gave me my meal on the house anyway. The server could've been new and they were very accommodating so of course I don't hold it against them and continue to eat there. I mean when their burgers are that good I have to!“
“The Black & Blue Filet is out of this world and cooked to perfection (medium rare). I crave it on a weekly basis. It is farm-raised beef from a local supplier which earns huge bonus points. The staff is always friendly and it is rarely packed during the week when we go for dinner, providing a quiet, peaceful environment. The meatloaf is also AMAZING!“
“Wow! Took my bestie here for her birthday. First of all I love the sweet little town of Locust. Every experience I’ve had here leaves a happy feeling.It was a Saturday night during prom season and we didn’t have a reservation so no table was available. Several different staff apologized for this fact. We were seated at the long table in the middle of the room since we didn’t have reservations. It was fine.The waiters were the bar keepers Rhett and Tyler. Could not have been more kind helpful, prompt and courteous. All good.The atmosphere in crowded places often bothers my hearing but here I had no issue. It’s lighting and decor give it a nice feeling. Love the mural in honor of the beloved Locust.We ordered the bruschetta as an appetizer and it was so very delicious. Perfectly seasoned and beautifully presented. I had the chicken melt, black eyed peas and loaded fries. I ordered the chicken because the menu said it had 3 kinds of cheese and I’m a cheese fanatic, imagining it would be loaded with cheese. It wasn’t, but still was good. The black eyed peas were the best I’ve ever had. We even asked Rhett how they make them. Super delicious. The loaded fries hit me in the happy with their generous cheese. My obsession satisfied.My friend ordered the ribs and rosemary potatoes. She loved the food and raved about it and swore she will be back here.We intended to order dessert but the portions were so generous that we didn’t have room.This place is a gem and I’m hoping they do amazing business. I’m thrilled to have a new excuse to go to Locust.“
“Our family loves the Sunrise Grill. The food and service are always consistently delicious. Today I tried the Sunrise omelette, sausage, bacon, ham, onion, cheese, and tomato. It was good, but I prefer their veggie omelette add sausage. Pumpkin waffles are seasonal and a must try. My 5 year old really enjoyed the pancake and entertaining the other diners around us. I love our little country community and this diner.“
“Fresh is exactly a good description. I was told they only have a freezer for the ice cream. Everything else is fresh. Made every day. The lasagna incredibly meaty and a spicy ? kick. The gumbo was very tasty. Definitely will be coming back. What a a hidden “
“Went for the fish platter on Fish Fry Friday. It's a cool little place, and the service was great. The food was average. Fired oysters were pretty gamey/fishy and left behind. Fish was kind of the same, not so great. Deviled crab was all breading. The fried clams, shrimp, and hush puppies were all good. Will give it a whirl for some non-fish next time.Parking: There is plenty of space behind building in a stone lot. It's haphazard, but it works.“
“This waffle house is great. The team members are always on top of it and the food is what you expect.Vegetarian options: Plenty of ovo-lacto veggie options, however you may need to specify to have your eggs cooked in a pan if you do not want it cooked near meat.Kid-friendliness: The staff are great and are playful with our kids.“
“I have been searching forever to find the perfect french fry. I know that sounds crazy but the fries are fresh and homemade. Just something from my childhood memories. I have yet to have bad food or bad service. Their food has always been amazing. I would highly recommend their french fries and for breakfast pancakes they make the best of both!“
