“I love both Buzzbee owned M-town business’s. Zeno’s and Rosie’s (wayward’s pub part ). The Buzzbee family could have invested in any community they wanted, but they chose Marshalltown! For that I am grateful and appreciative. Great food, with good vibes!“

“The food was great, but it took almost 10 minutes for anyone to notice that we needed seated. We would have left but we were really craving the food. Our server was okay but not very attentive. I think they were short staffed. The food was excellent though. Try the hot tenderloin!“

“I had gone through drive thru and the lady at drive had greeted me super nicely and had offered me if there was any dressings or salt or anything I would like and had wonderful manners her name was Sofia and as was the other lady taking my order was very helpful as well! I loved the amazing service!“

“There were very few customers there when we came for dinner so we got very diligent and kind service from multiple servers. I had to mark the atmosphere down one as I had to kick aside a piece of dropped lettuce from my path getting into our booth, depositing it about a foot from a dropped plastic wrapper for a straw next to another table. It made me feel things were a little unsanitary. Right when we were about to order food to eat.

The servers were rolling silverware when those things were on the floor next to them. I understand they can't sweep and vacuum all the time, and we came after the dinner rush, but I think it would be wise for one person to go around the dining area and pick up obvious things like that off the floor, after meal rushes, while the other person rolls silverware, etc. I say this as a former store owner and it is something I would have advised my employees to do after a big rush: 1 work on straightening and picking up while maybe the other work on prepping new product to go out, etc.

The service and food were fabulous. And we will greatly enjoy our take home muffins, too. It was the feel good, relaxing, hearty meal experience our souls needed after stressful times. And we chose to go to Perkins because we felt we could count on having that enjoyable pass time there.“

“Honestly my go to, always get big meals from here and they never fail to impress me, food is always packed and always so good, rarely ever mess up and order and the people there are really nice and chill, never a bad day there, best of the best“

“We had the kindest most lovely host, medium black hair, reddish highlights. complimented my madoka magica shirt and asked to be friends, I would have said yes but unfortunately the age gap was just too much for the both of us. Food was pretty good, liked the wings. Thank you very sweet host, I hope you make the friends you deserve. 🩷

On another note: they seem to be understaffed, the hosts and waiters are trying their best, even if they can be forgetful, they have long days like you do. be kind to them.“
