What a quaint local restaurant that probably doesn't need high reviews on Google...the food was good. Service was the problem. While our server was alone, the place was not that busy but mostly she didn't know the menu. Twice we asked her to tell us what an item was and she didn't know and didn't offer to find out. She described one of the dishes we got wrong.

Waitress took forever to even drop off menus, then didn’t have a clue. Wanted breakfast as no where on the menu that stated that they server breakfast until a certain time. Ordered a mushroom, Swiss hamburger asked if it came with fries, she said “I think so?”, it didn’t but she never came and told us otherwise. Burger said it came with crispy onions. Received a Hamburger, Swiss cheese, canned mushrooms and grilled onions on a tiny plate. Will not be dinner here again.

Extremely nice people and great service. We did breakfast and their "made to order" perfectly. Just like an old time country diner. P.S. The scrambled eggs were real eggs (try to find that now days).

Food and service were horrible. Teenage waiter didn't know the menu and kept going back and forth to ask questions. I ordered Steak and eggs and the steak was so thin it was probably skirt steak instead of the ribeye, which was advertised on the menu. The steak was overcooked as were the hashbrowns. Go elsewhere, I should have read the reviews 1st.

Stop in a little after 12 on a Sunday. Not very busy. Per the sign, we seated ourselves. The waitress brought menus and 3 glasses of water. They were small glasses so I asked for a pitcher. The waitress brought it pretty quick. Nearly 20 minutes later she had not come back to check on us or take our order. We left.So I cannot speak of the food, but the service was lackluster.

We were recommended by someone else in town, and it did not let us down. Service was super super nice, and their homemade salad dressing was delicious. My entree was also great. I highly recommend this to anyone passing through the de smet area.
