Carlyle's Restaurant

I am sorry they do have good food,but the service needs a help! Wife is in a wheelchair chair it was so hard for us to get in and out of the place. To crammed in needs more room longer hours! I think they need a little up date on there decor also..

Great food and service ! Best pies in Marion Wish it were open for dinner and weekends:)

OMG!!! Stop here!!! Service is exceptional and food is homemade comfort food. The moment you walk into the restaurant the amazing smells invite you in. Our server, Christina, is so nice and very attentive!!! The place was packed on a Monday by 12:15p. Food service was speedy too!! A must stop if you are traveling on HWY 23!

Tracy the owner is super sweet and came out to check on his customer's. Top Notch, way to run a restaurant. Today I took my 3 year old in, he had the grilled cheese kids meal and I had the protein plate.I have to admit, because I just came from working out-ordering the protein plate just hit the spot and kept me honest on my goals. I loved the fact that was a choice, on their menu.Overall clean, very personable staff and great atmosphere and food. Thumbs up! Hey just popped back in and wow great service and hometown feel, and reasonably priced.

I've tried this place a couple of times now and I can attest it is probably about the best eating you are going to find in the small town of Marion. Better get there early though at lunch and find a seat as they fill up quickly. The waitresses all work hard to provide fast and friendly service and the food is amazing and well priced. This is a classic diner style food and so far everything I have tried is fantastic, especially the beets, oh my goodness the beets are amazing!! One word of caution though: do NOT get the iced tea, it's terrible and even the waitress admitted it was terrible. Other than that, this is the place to go. And last piece of advice - TRY THE PIE! It is about the best find you will stumble upon in Marion I can guarantee it.

Finally made it to Carlyle's for lunch. Oh my goodness; what a great spot to eat. When you hear them hand pounding flat iron steaks, tenderloins, and chicken tenders you know you're in the right place!Enjoyed their scrumptious hand breaded crunchy onion rings. The hubs had delicious fried cod dinner with a salad and bean soup. I had a hand pounded breaded pork tenderloin sandwich, fully dressed on a toasted bun. With crunchy fries on the side. Our server was professional, friendly, and attentive without being intrusive. They're a busy spot but don't rush their customers at all. It's clean and tidy, unobtrusive in a small strip mall. They're open M-F from 11am-3pm. They do lunch and do it perfectly!

Food descriptions may seem simple, but execution was top notch. Burger and fried chicken salad were awesome.

We were looking for a lunch spot in Marion that would be more interesting than the chains. We both ordered the special. Service was good and friendly. The food was also good.

Listen. The service is awesome. They have the sweetest staff. the food will make you feel right at home and the pie will make not want to go home. It's great place to meet up with friends.

Stopped here because of all the reviews, they were right! Atmosphere is very much like a home town diner. Staff was friendly and waitress, Christina, was friendly and quick! The food was delicious! I had the crispy chicken salad, fresh chopped lettuce (not bagged salad) a real full boiled egg, cheese, tomatoes, cucumber.... It was so good! My husband had the cod sandwich with potato wand cole slaw... The salads were fresh and VERY HOMEMADE! The fish had a light and crispy coating and the fish itself was flaky, moist and again, delicious! We took a piece of pie to go, peach crumble, which was also homemade, I can tell the crust was not just a frozen crust and the filling was full of peaches! Was quite Tasty later on with a cup of coffee! Definitely stop if you are staying in or going through Marion at Lunch time!!
