Mary's Family Restaurant

Great service. Pecan Waffles excellent! All you can eat friday fish fry - excellent. All you can eat was haddock. They also have perch. Fries were coated(not a fan of coated fries. Restaurant was clean, lots of seating, lots of parking. Lots of desserts. Chocolate cream pie, lemon meringue pie, many others. Enjoy!

I was there at 7:55 ish, on a Friday night. I was in the mode for fried / Broasted chicken. The open sign was on, the door was open and the dining room was empty. A guy met me at the host station and he asked me I was there to pickup to?I told him no, I wanted to dine in. No, he said, kitchen is closed, but the lettering on the door and the web says 8:30 close. I walked away and then went back. "So I don't do this again. Your open till 8:30, correct?","Well, not tonight. Can I get you something To go?""So, the kitchen is not closed? and maybe you would serve food to me?" I presume you are a manager.""Well, I'm sorry it is closed."It was a nice attempt. I heard from a friend that the chicken was signature level and the soups are as well.So, I can't write about the food, or service. Do I plan to return to a sit down place a couple of miles from my home?Ah, no. Turn off your open sign if you are not open.When I worked as a server, floor manager etc. we stayed open and would even seat people at 5 minutes to closing.

Service was great, food was fresh. Would recommend to others. The deep dish apple pie with caramel and ice cream was really delicious. 100/10

We came on a Sunday around 1pm. It was still busy and there was a line of about 15 people in front of us however it moved quickly. After around 15 minutes, we got seated. The server was quick to take our drink and food orders. The specials were a great deal price wise. The dumpling soup was amazing. The broasted chicken was freshly made and some of the best I've ever had. The ribs were also good and fell right off the bone. They do not serve any alcohol. The decor was of an old school diner however was very clean. When you get your check, you pay up front. They have a refrigerator near the front where you can buy prepackaged soups to go. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

I had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant today. Recognizing that it was a busy Saturday morning, and we were a party of six (3 adults, 3 toddlers), still the level of service was far subpar. In fact we really didn't get any service at all. We were seated for 10 minutes, and had to ask for a server to help us. A few minutes later a server came over and took a drink order, and another 10 minutes passed without getting our drinks, and without getting to place a food order. Meanwhile, there was another group seated next to us that got served immediately.Very much seemed like nobody wanted to help us because we had three kids with us. Would not recommend coming here with kids, and I personally will probably never come here again. Which is unfortunate because I have been a happy customer at this restaurant for many years.

Excellent menu, reasonable prices, attentive service, great local ownership. We eat here regularly--wraps, skillets, meatloaf, potato pancakes are among the meals we have eaten. The restaurant is clean, sanitary and working with every customer. "Apparent customer" William M is likely a fake/rage review posted by a sick man. Michelin stars here? No. A hearty, reliable, well priced meal? 100%!

Went there for a late lunch(2pm) with my granddaughter. The breasted chicken had obviously sat awhile and was dry and overcooked. Mashed potatoes obviously instant. Much better places and choices to go. I won't be back

Dumpling soup and broasted chicken are my go to's for years at once was two locations. Appleton did this two location gem a dis-service closing down the road closest to me. Best diner in the world ever both nationally and internationally.

Ok, well I got the chicken Caesar salad, it was piping hot, which was very strange, & very unappetizing (except for the sliced boiled egg, that was cold). I also had the cream of cheddar & broccoli soup, which was also strange, it tasted ok, but when my husband reached over to try it, he had his fork & took a fork full of the soup & nothing dropped from it... We both started laughing. So we (kinda) had a good time at that expense. Also, it had the biggest chunk of broccoli I've ever seen in it, & that tasted ok, but it was literally the consistency of opening up a can of Campbell's cream-of-whatever soup & eating it straight from the can. My husband had the broasted chicken with mashed potatoes & sage dressing, & when he tried each item I would ask how it was, & every time he gave me a look where he'd would wrinkle his face in disappointment. He ate less than half of his food, & I ate about a quarter of mine... One other positive was that we didn't have to bother having the left overs put in a carry-out container, so we didn't need to carry that into the house when we got home

Excellent choice for home-style cooking. The food is delicious, and the portions are generous. The staff are usually good at customer service, and are pleasant. I can't recommend their soups enough - especially the chicken and dumplings. I'm picky about dumplings, but it's perfect. Best soup I've ever had.
