“I used to work for stables. And I am proud to say that. Manager, Linda Clark, and manager Morgan Ward are one of the best managers you’ll find. Unfortunately I quit due to me going to college. If I wasn’t going to college, you bet I would stay there. I believe that there’s not many restaurants like stables anymore. Everybody is just kind of jerks. However, a lot of the time working there put a smile on my face. I was a dishwasher. However, there were times where I could help out everybody. There were times where the servers were so packed up that they couldn’t bust their own tables. Not their fault at all. Each and every one of those servers are amazing. And it’s not a big deal to help them anyway. I won hundred percent. I’m going to continue to eat there. And you guys should too. Thank you Linda and thank you Morgan hope to see and hear from you guys soon. Love you all.“

“We were passing thru and staying at Best Western Premier. The desk clerk recommended Conrad’s! We went there and so glad we did! Claire was our waitress and she was amazing! Hubby has allergies and she went back twice to make sure he was ok!! We shared the Blue Chips appetizer…with a couple cold ones. OMG….they were soooo good! We had regular BBQ sauce instead of Buffalo. Amazing! And you get so much!! Definitely enough to share! Then we both ordered the grilled chicken wrap with ranch dressing. That also was so very good! I brought 1/2 of mine back to motel for breakfast in the morning. For a side I had steamed broccoli which was excellent. Hubby had the mixed vegetables. It is a casual but nice place!! Claire was awesome and so was the food!“

“Shout out to the Culver’s employee who made my beautiful strawberry fields salad this evening! It was PERFECTION!! Not only was the salad beautiful, but everything was Super Fresh! The lettuce was so very fresh & crisp; the strawberries were perfectly ripe, juicy, & freshly sliced; the grilled chicken was a generous portion & still warm, but not so hot as to wilt the lettuce. The pecans & blue cheese chunks weren’t soggy. Perfection! 😁Thanks so much!“

“Huey’s is a small gem that will forever go one my favorite breakfast/brunch stops.
If you do go on a Saturday morning do know this is a small business and a small staff. You may have to wait to order but not long for your coffee! Or your meal! Given they do coffee orders as they go. Instead of getting over hauled.
They have a system to their madness and how they serve and anyone that’s been a server or in restaurant will definitely understand why they do what they do.

My husband and I come in regularly and always love our meal. My go to is the biscuits and gravy and my husband goes all over the menu from the breakfast burrito with chorizo or their Mexican plate to normal eggs and toast. It’s always a staple for us on our Saturday mornings.
The coffee is great they offer regular black coffee to cappuccinos and latte with flavors and choice of milk.
The staff are friendly and enjoyable to interact with.
Definitely stop in!“

“Fantastic fast food restaurant! We've been waiting to try this place since we are fans of the competitor! Needless to say, they didn't disappoint when walking in for the first time to order! The food was prepared impeccably and quite tasty! Impressive employees and facility! "Wendy" was at the helm behind the cash register and pointed us in the right direction! She was incredible to talk to and friendly! The prices were comparable to other fast food, and worth it! The sandwiches come in 3 different sizes according to the meat ordered! Impressive! The facility was near capacity and busy thru and thru! All the food ordered was the right temperature and worth purchasing! We returned a week later in the drive-thru! We weren't as impressed by the quality of the sandwiches compared to entering the restaurant! We'll be back and visit Wendy inside, rather than going thru the drive! Thank you again!“

“My husband and I visited Saltgrass tonight, anticipating the normal fantastic food and service. As always, our food was excellent, and our server was phenomenal, however an unpleasant scene we witnessed really left a sour taste in our mouth for the evening. As we were dining we witnessed the General Manager, Vernon Blazek begin yelling at a young lady right in the main dining area. He concluded the scene when he yelled “Go home. Bye!” As a Human Resources professional, I can say that had one of my managers treated a subordinate in that manner, especially in front of our customers, that would have been the first and last time that occurred. When my husband addressed the issue with the manager, he was incredibly rude and dismissive of our concerns, ending our conversation by rolling his eyes, stating “Sorry I ruined your dining experience” and walking off. To say we are incredibly disappointed in tonight’s experience would be an understatement.“

The only thing I have to say that wasn’t great, was the bartender opened the “garage” door to the patio, which no one was outside, because it was 96 degrees! It started getting hot, and the flies were coming in at a fast rate! After about 45 minutes, they closed it, thankfully! The rest of the evening was great, with the exception of some fly friends! 🤣😂I would definitely go back and I would recommend it for sure!“
