Darlena's Lincolnland Restaurant

Went there yesterday and there were three tables that already had food and one guy with an EMS uniform that was by himself and nearly finished. My first time there. I walked in and wasn't greated at all. Two with a very young boy came in behind me. They took a seat at the table I was standing next to. I said it was my first time there. The guy said pick a chair and sit. I did. The only waitress there got around to getting menus. Took them to the couple that came in after me. She took their drink orders. Fifteen minutes later she brought me a menu. Not at the same time as the other two. One more menu at six feet away would have been a little too much I guess. I asked for water. Water came. She took the other tables food order Fifteen minutes later, she took mine. I'm glad she took the other tables order because I'm sure the young boy was really hungry because it was almost 11:00 am. 10:30 when both of us arrived. I was really hungry by now so I chose something quick. 2 "large" biscuits with " sausage" gravy and two eggs over easy. Both items were separate on the menu. By 11:20 I received my food. The gravy looked like last minute powdered gravy that had dehydrated sausage bits that was left too long after it was made to thicken a lot. The sausage was undetectable and the eggs were dry and way overcooked. I guess the cook realized that the eggs were over because the waitress said the cook was sending out another egg for me. So now I had 3 overcooked eggs ! I thought I'd doctor up what I had with some franks hot sauce that was on the table. I have franks hot sauce at home and his didn't look or taste like franks to me. The top was almost completely off of the bottle. I'm sure someone wanted to pour it on their food instead of shaking it on. I paid my $6.99 bill with $10.00 . The only reason I bumped up the stars to two was the extra egg effort. Glad to have tried it because I don't need to try it again.

Good pancakes, service is nice, and great environment rockport is a wonderful and cheering neighborhood!

Awesome home cooking! Great hidden gem in Spencer county! Highly recommend the chili! Burgers are also huge.

So...... I'm staying in Owensboro, KY and I'm tired of eating out of styrofoam boxes. COVID-19 quarantine has gotten me down. Across the river in Indiana they have opened up restaurants at 50% capacity for dine in. That seals the deal so I'm looking for a place to actually sit and eat a meal I did not cook. By chance or faith I will never know but I found this little restaurant. We came right before they closed but we were welcomed and told what we should order. I ordered a patty melt but Ron who owns the restaurant recommend we come at breakfast and try a western omelette. Uh.....a no brainer for me so I switched my order. That omelette was awesome. The ham was very fresh and tasty, the potatoes served on the side were homemade. Really great tasting food. My wife had a waffle with strawberries and whip cream. My other dining partner has a cheese steak with fries. All in all a great dining experience. I will definitely be back.

The food was delicious, I had the Club and the wife had the fish sandwich. We both had the onion rings and they were super delicious. The server was very friendly and the cook even came out to check if everything was ok.

Very friendly owners. Food was fresh and delicious. I love plate lunch specials. Lots of memorabilia everywhere to look at and read about while you wait.

What wonderful food! A must try but be forewarned, you will be time warped to a different era. Do you remember a time when we were served a hot meal that was actually enough to make you contemplate how there was going to be room for dessert? You know, back when the establishment actually cared about the quality of their ingredients and your satisfaction was paramount. Very rare to find (like a drive-in theatre) in today's world, but it does exist! If you don't know anything about rotary phones, I highly recommend you see and taste what the "good ole days" was like. For those who remember...Well you know.

Food was excellent. Good sized portions. The quality of the ingredients and how the food was prepared was also very well done. Very good people that run this establishment. If you're in the area looking for a good home cooked meal give them a try! You won't regret it.

Good food good prices would recommend this place to anyone the people are friendly and the place is clean small town hospitality
