Marlin's | Family Restaurant

Breakfast was horrible. Eggs were overcooked and cold the first time and cooked correctly but borderline cold the 2nd time, hashbrowns to closer to leftover fried mashed potatoes rather than hash browns. Service was slow and coffee refills almost nonexistent. It was not very busy so that's not a valid excuse.

ABSOLUTELY RECOMMENDED. I, hands down, think this is the best restaurant I've ever been to. They have a selection of a buffet OR ordering!! We came, as boy scout troop 127, and the waitress didn't SIGH once after one of them had TWO Cokes, and FOUR waters. Must have been dehydrated! The service was VERY welcoming and polite. These are probably one of the nicest people ever. We're coming up from Iowa, and South Dakota has been awesome so far. The food was delicious, the chicken tender basket is very recommended. THEY GIVE YOU FIVE TENDERS INSTEAD OF THREE LIKE MOST RESTAURANTS! Also, it is a 24/7 restaurant. How do these waitresses maintain patience after that? Anyways, awesome and 10/10 recommend.

Christina is the best waitress ever!!! Go see her in Mitchell, SD!!!

Great value! Right on I-90.
Fresh made delicious food served fast.
Excellent service!
My 1st time here.
In town 2 days and came both mornings for breakfast of eggs, hash browns and pancakes under $10.
2nd morning was shocked that the server Christina actually remembered my exact order from the day before, with correct variations I'd requested.
Never sat more than a few minutes before being asked if I needed a coffee refill etc. 1st morning an Asst Manager(?) circulated asking folks how meals were. Good touch.
These people obviously know how to manage a restaurant and how to hire/train and keep quality staff.
I'll stop next time and I'll look for other locations with same name.

Always had a good experience and good food with good service.

Our waitress, Christina, was very attentive, offered recommendations, and helped select items from the menu that weee safe for our child who has Celiac Disease. The food was ready quickly and everyone in our family liked what they ordered.

Delish! Wish we had these on the east coast!

Sat at the counter. Food was great, service was fast. Workers were friendly.

Really great food and shakes. Service was amazing as well. We had Karen as our server and she was great!

Definitely a down to earth, home town restaurant with clean and great everything. I had the brisket bacon melt and a beer was really good

One of the better short order diners on the highway. Had the country fried steak b'fast. Got greeted promptly, sat and ordered quickly, and got my meal in less than 10 minutes. All on a very busy Sunday morning. Obviously a local favorite. Food was very good and cooked to order but the eggs were on the small side.
Excellent service from Jamie.

Very bad service. My server was very slow. Ended up leaving without even eating. They were not busy my server was standing around chatting with other employees. Will never stop back here again

Classic diner with for an awesome breakfast. Loved the experience. Get some gas, get a meal, get some local flavor.
