Reviews Summary

Dale's Restaurant offers a classic American comfort food experience with generous portions and a unique motorcycle/guitar-themed decor. While many praise the friendly service, good atmosphere, and tasty dishes like elk t-bone and omelettes, some reviews mention blandness, overcooked meats, and inconsistent service. It seems to be a hit for those seeking hearty, no-fuss meals, but can be hit-or-miss depending on the dish and visit.

"We had a group of four for supper. Our waitress, I believe her name was Becca was super friendly! Great service and very good food!"

Deedee Wilkinson

"We tried the breakfast at Dale’s. Overall, it was okay. The omelette meal was quite big. I could only eat about half. The downside is the flavor was quite bland. Even with the peppers, onions, and mushrooms added, it all tasted the same. The breakfast potatoes would have been much better had they been crispy. They look crispy but were not. The toast was more like warm buttered bread. Need to toast longer. The steak and eggs were good. Steak was perfectly cooked. We were never asked if we wanted a refill on our coffee.

We had the chicken wrap and chicken tender meal for supper (no pictures), and those were 5 stars."

Scarlett Vetter

"Service was exelent waitress was friendly and realy good. Had the best pretzel. But when it came to the mains neither me or my wife could eat our food. My steak had this funky sweet sauce on it I just could not eat. My wife's chicken was bland and had no flavor."
