Love the Cracker Barrel pit stops. Corporate standards are always enforced so you know what you're going to get when you sit in front of one of those big fireplaces.St Joe's operation is no different than every other clone and that's a great thing. The decor is.....well, if you've ever been to one, you've been to them all and know of what I speak. Service is a bit pokey on Woodbine Road though. Hard to believe St Joe was the starting point of the Pony Express and that never would have gotten off the ground if they operated at this velocity. Food was great, service as less than sparkling, the place was clean, and tidy. Trying to pay the bill was something of a nut show. Show the card, scan the card, press some button, no idiot, not that button for that card, arrrrrrr ok run your card again but guess which color button better this time. I'm asking myself why am I doing all your work for you and getting attitude about it. If you were so great at your job then why aren't you doing it and eliminate the grief I'm getting over this?Cashing out was a real downer and not a memory that I cherish. Definitely not up to corporate standards at this station and the cause of a Poor rating. Clean up this pathetic process and you will raise your standards to Average......and for a Cracker Barrel, that's pretty darn good.

54th Street was founded in Kansas City, MO by Thomas E. Norsworthy in 1989. He envisioned a place that would accommodate a consistently crowded dining room as well as a lively bar crowd, while offering the quality food and drinks that exceed national chai

Recently met my wife here for evening meal. It was busy but the staff was doing a great job of getting drink orders, taking food orders and delivering items ordered. Since the servings are generally quite generous, we shared the Southwest Wrap. It came as ordered and had just the right amount of flavor and the shared order was plenty for the two of us. The order even came already divided on separate plates--something that some places do not take the time to do. We enjoyed our evening.

Their tenderloin is popular for a reason. I got it without cheese because I don't think cheese belongs on a tenderloin. I ate it with mayo and pickles. It was great! And, the homemade chips were fabulous with "Greek" seasoning. Get the seasoning because it makes the chips even better. I couldn't stop eating those chips! The Mexican platter was good but not great. The beef was rather bland. The puffy fried flour tortilla was good, I just wish the beef had more seasoning.We had super friendly service and the waitress made good suggestions. Can't wait to go back.
6. Cheddar's Restaurant

Our family reunion group of 14 folks choose to have our first dinner meal here on a Saturday evening two weeks ago. We all travel from different states for our reunions and some folks have Cheddar's in their states and some don't. This restaurant was close to our hotel and very convenient to drive to. We were not able to sit together as one group and were all split up in different areas of the restaurant. My husband and I have eaten at a Cheddar's before and already knew they have good food and excellent onion rings. I had told lots of our other folks how good the onion rings were and several tables of our group ordered them ........much to my regret. Because my table of three was the last to order, our server told us when he delivered our main course and I had ask about our onion ring appetizer order, that the kitchen was over whelmed with orders for onion rings and they could not prepare any more right then. So much for me being a nice person and sharing the news about how good the onions rings are ..............when all of our group was together later visiting at the hotel I told about my table not getting any onion rings because so many of them ordered them ......everyone had a good laugh. Everyone thought their meals were good and would like to try visiting a Cheddar's again if the occasion arises.

We gave this restaurant try with our family and some friends from Minnesota. Our barbecue dishes were delicious and plentiful. The waitress was helpful and efficient. The establishment also offered beer and wine, a definite plus. The only downside was that this restaurant is located in a refurbished older facility and had a slightly worn feel to it. Nevertheless, give this place a try if you have a hankering for barbecue.

I have been to this restaurant three times in the past year, most recently in June. The salad bar is varied and fresh. The steak is cooked to perfection, and I order medium rare. The fried chicken is crispy and not greasy . The baked potato is tasty. I don't think one would get a bad meal here, no matter what was ordered . Service is good.Ruth- thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We stride to serve our customers their meal exactly as ordered, cooked the way they like it. Iâm glad to hear we are doing that. We appreciate your business and hope to serve you another tasty meal in the near future.

Food was mediocre at best and the server did everything she could to not serve us the entire visit. Additionally we asked for an accommodation to one of the meals told us they would and it was clear from the look and taste of the food they did not. Would not recommend.

This historical home is beautiful! The food and service was amazing! I absolutely LOVED the owner. He took the time to answer any questions about his home, and you could tell he was very passionate about it. He had so much knowledge about the history of St. Joseph and reminded me how fascinating the history is here. I highly recommend making a reservation. You will not regret it!
