The Dining Car Reviews
Awful new owner. Treats employees like dirt under his boot, so I don't support it! No matter how good the food is, Ricardo is not a good fit for the restaurant biz.
Outstanding and delicious. I’m not easily impressed. I am. Our server Jamie was friendly and great. We will definitely come again.
Today I walked into the dining car, and had the best waitress. Riley is so sweet, well mannered, and had a wonderful personality!! Will definitely be back to see Riley! The food and atmosphere was also super good! Cannot wait to be back next Sunday!

Menu
The Dining Car offers a mix of experiences based on recent reviews. The food quality is highly praised, with dishes like the jalapeno smoked bacon burger and NC catfish sandwich standing out. The homemade key lime pie is also a hit. However, there are concerns about the prices, with some finding them too high for the setting and menu. The lack of clear pricing on the menu was a surprise, with some customers feeling misled. Despite this, the friendly service was a positive highlight. The atmosphere is described as small and lacking ambience, leading some to believe the restaurant is more of a diner than a steakhouse. Overall, the food receives high marks for taste and portion size, but the pricing and atmosphere may not align with expectations.
