11 Best American Restaurants in Marion

“Today we had a hard/stressful day my whole family of 5 were starving and decided to stop in for food. The lady at counter was nice and caring, treating us as if we were her own family. Everyone else made sure we were being helped and so friendly. It was clean and had a relaxed atmosphere. Best part was the food. Everything we got was delicious but the BBQ Fries were on point, none left just empty trays. We will be making more trips back just to eat at the Switzerland Cafe and it’s over an hour drive but worth it. Also we had our dog and they offered a water bowl for him as well as 2 medium dog biscuits. 5 Stars all the way!“

“I hadn’t been to Bruce’s in several years. I had heard that Bruce had passed away, and I wondered if the restaurant was still the excellent place that I remembered. It is! I had a mushroom Swiss burger with cream of cabbage soup on the side. Outstanding! Also, one of the neat things that I always appreciated about eating at Bruce’s was how he would always come out and socialize with customers. Of course, he can no longer do that. But one of his cooks, Chad, has stepped into that role, it seems. He came out to see if everything was okay and we talked about desserts (one is included with the meal). He gave me some good advice and allowed me to sample a couple of different pieces of cake. I ended up with an upgraded dessert (blueberry walnut cheese cake) and a piece of Hawaiian fruit cake to take home for Susanne. Chad has learned the lesson that Bruce intuitively understood. People like to do business with people. Chad made the lunch more than just a transactional experience where he gave me food and I gave him money. Instead, it was someone sharing what they loved to do (cook food) with someone who appreciated it and wanted as more than happy to pay for it. Not coincidentally, I also ended up spending more money than planned because I appreciated the experience. There’s a lesson to be learned here. Thanks to Bruce’s Fabulous Foods, and to Chad, for a great lunch.“

“This place is a cute little casual restaurant that serves simple food. I got the taco salad for lunch and it was quite good. I will definitely try other things on the menu. My only criticism is that the hours are hard to keep track of, especially on Google. They also don’t have any updated online menus. I took some pics of the food and the menu.“

“Good food! Very nice staff!“

“The food is really good especially the clam chowder. We also had clam dip with drinks while we watched the Christmas parade. Awesome! Dillon the bartender was so nice! Had a fantastic time!“

“Good service, food was fresh and served quickly. BBQ was very good as was the Granny's catfish that my wife had. Don't forget the hushpuppies!“

“Family friendly and good eats! We have been here multiple times, and I just realized today that I haven’t left a review yet. We enjoy the live music they have there occasionally and the food and service always of course!!!“

“Under new management, bartender Sean is phenomenal. If you have been here before give it another try.“

“Delicious food, great service, wonderful setting!“

“Great staff interaction with us. Stopped while traveling and they helped so much.. Had to walk the dogs and the staff helped us with water for the pups, then we ordered some grub while the staff lip sinked to the music as they cooked. Food was delicious and served with a warm smile and great company. Highly recommend to all...“
