Family Restaurants in Rushville, MO

“I would’ve much preferred to give this restaurant 3.5 stars.

We stumbled into Pats on our way back from the state park. Pat’s had been a restaurant my husband wanted to introduce to me. I love small mom and Pop owned restaurants. This one was no exception. The food is typical Midwest non-pretentious food. If you like fried food, this menu is for you. If you prefer healthy non-fried options, there are a few choices but not many. That said the service was very good. My husband did have an 8 ounce steak which surprises both as it came more like a skirt steak than an 8 ounce typical steak. I was surprised that smoking was allowed in the bar. The bar is very close to the tables . When I questioned I was told there’s no smoking in the banquet room. If cigarette smoke bothers you while you eat, this is not the restaurant for you.“
