Bathroom was disgusting. Service was slow and there was only 2 other tables. Noone ever asked if we wanted a refill and we had to ask for silverware. Place was not clean.

I don't eat at Perkins very often, I've always been a Cracker Barrel kinda guy. However, Perkins American Food Company lives in my head rent free due to one sole reason, it makes me reminisce about a middle aged lady that I worked with years ago. Her name was Gina. You see, Gina worked as a waitress, at a Perkins restaurant in East Tennessee for a number of years. She always talked about her time working there, which span several years, and about Catalina salad dressing. She loved Catalina salad dressing, and she would talk about it often. She would explain how Catalina wasn't the same as French, and how Catalina had more ketchup in the blend, and that's what made it taste better. For reasons unknown to me, this conversation has stuck in my head for almost a decade. You might hear a song today, and it might bring back memories of yesterday. The world lost Gina a few years ago. Unexpected, for a lady only a few months shy of her 50th birthday. That one crazy co-worker that you worked with once upon a time. One day you hear about them passing, and it comes as a shock, but life goes on. The point I'm getting at, you make interactions with people everyday. Those interactions can stick with you in strange and unknowing ways. Sometimes you remember the weirdest things. Maybe Something just as silly as Catalina salad dressing from Perkins restaurant sparks a memory. Either way, we go through life not knowing what the next minute will bring, rollin' the dice of life at every moment, and nobody has life figured out or what might be around the corner. Bunch of homosapiens floating around on a big rock through space...

Ohh, sorry, I almost forgot the restaurant review. The waitress was very friendly and attentive. Grilled pork chops, broccoli with cheese, and grilled asparagus. Everything was delicious. Huge shout out to the Perkins restaurant in Newton, Iowa. Keep it up!

Little difficult to find. Had to use a side street. Food and service was excellent. Was able to get our food quickly and back on the road.

When we walked in the place smelled. We almost turned around and walked out. We were greeted wide right by but once we ordered, we hardly saw her again. Our food took over 40 minutes to come out and there were literally maybe eight people in the whole place. The food was extremely below average I would never ever go to this place again.
