A local favorite!
a hamburger and fries on a plate
How am I supposed to cut and mix this up without making a big mess? It should be served in a bowl!

Frozen chicken from a bag, cold instant potatoes and under seasoned peas! Nothing was good about this meal.
Famous Italian dip was very flavorful. My husband would love it!
New Chocolate Gravy N Biscuits Served Saturday and Sunday mornings!
One of our most talked about menu items is our amazing Super Pancakes! Funny story behind how we got started making them this big.

Lovely little local diner. Type of place where if you are local they know you and great you. Very friendly. Stop by for a brunch with a friend in a damp rainy day. Had the normal fried breakfast two eggs over medium, bacon, biscuits and gravy and a side of hash browns. All amazing. The gravy was excellent. I was already coffeed up so opted for sweet tea like that had less caffeine but hey it was about perceptions. Great local place it would be wonderful to have in my hometown. But then we are so small we probably couldn't support it. You get the idea though.

Ok, we've been trying Rhodes since we moved to Medina. At best, it's hit and miss. Vegetables seem to be canned at best.We've had bad experiences in the past and tonight was the final straw for us. I ordered the ribeye special medium rare closer to rare. What did I get, a shoe leather well-done ribeye. All the server could say was "I'm sorry" until I pushed the point and stated I wasn't paying full price. They finally gave me a 50% off discount.The place was packed so we were hopeful, but the food was sub-par and I would not recommend this place or will we probably be visiting again.I know Sam is trying to serve the community of Medina, but if your cook doesn't know how to cook steak, don't let them cook it!This was the final straw for me!

My husband and I were on our way to Jackson to eat and changed our minds. We ate at Rhodes when we lived in Medina years ago so we decided to go there instead . It did not disappoint! The food was fantastic- tasted like if you went to grandmas house after she had spent all afternoon cooking a meal from scratch. I'm so glad we stopped! The staff was so kind. We will definitely be back!

After reading a the past bad reviews, being a local, I had to return to see what's going on. I can say, from visiting almost 6 months ago, and then today, only good things can be said. The food was cooked to order. I don't think things are pre-packaged or heated from a box because I asked for omissions, which would be noticeable if it were preassembled or prepackaged food. The cheese on my Philly steak was not processed cheese. It tasted like provolone. The meat was chopped steak. The bread was a ligit hoagie, and the green peppers and onions were fresh and so delicious. The jalapeño burger had fresh sliced peppers that were grilled and seasoned and a generous lettuce leaf garnish. The fries on both our dishes were generous and perfectly golden and crispy. Our wait staff was busy, but we were greeted and seated within minutes of stepping in about noon. The vendor for rug maintenance was there, and the front door was freshly cleaned and sparkly. The restrooms were clean and someone had just replenished the paper products. They were obviously ready for business on Monday! I like how the tables felt clean to the touch, how the sun comes in from two enormous skylights, and how nicely the desserts are displayed in the glass case. The desserts were so pretty, we took cake home. When we saw the portion size, we admitted we needed to share, and then decided to save 1/2 for tomorrow. Our wait staff was so nice, attentive and refilled drinks, napkins etc. All in all, there must have been something to make someone upset, but it wasn't anything wrong with the food, service, or atmosphere of the diner. We had a fabulous experience.

Rhodes has very good food. It's like home cooking. Went there to have breakfast. Got the country ham breakfast with two eggs two biscuits and gravy. The country ham was a huge center slice. Had to be put on a separate plate. The waitress was nice. The only problem I have with Rhodes is they are very slow. The price was great compared to most restaurants around here.

I am a regular customer at Rhodes Family Diner. The food is delicious, with a large selection of menu items. Usually I dine in, but I also use the pick up window. I've never had a problem there. Sam Rhodes and the servers are very polite. Gotta give em 5 stars!

The one thing this place is consistent on is messing up your order. Check your togo orders because they obviously won't! They forget atleast one item every single time and then by the time you go back for it it's old and stale!
