    Small town bar with a huge Tenderloin! Good place to sit and have some beers if you're in the area, otherwise I wouldn't make a trip to come eat.

    Diner 54 - Hash browns with a side of sausage gravy

    TLDR: Basically Denny's…read more MENU: Breakfast seems to be the happening thing here, especially brunch on Sundays. They have your typical breakfast fare in the morning, and diner style burgers, fried chicken, and whatnot during the day. FOOD QUALITY: Good, but very basic. I believe most of the items are made up of factory ingredients thrown together. For example I went here for brunch with a friend recently and got the barbacoa bowl - the spuds were the frozen par-fried kind, the cheese sauce was out of a can, etc. I also had the nutella waffle, which was a frozen waffle (kinda soggy, rather than crispy) with literally a squeeze of nutella and a sliced banana. Their stuff is basic to the point that you could make most of the menu at home in less time than it takes to drive up there and wait for your order. MENU FAVORITES: I've only been here twice, once for a burger (which was pretty good - I'd say a contender for the best restaurant burger in Kirksville), and once for brunch, so there's a lot of things I haven't tried. The stuff I did have was satisfying, and the price is fair. MENU FAILS: N/A. FRONT OF HOUSE SERVICE: Staff is friendly and attentive. KITCHEN SERVICE: The food is basic, but done well. Your scrambled eggs will be cooked through but still moist. Your pancakes will be nicely browned and fluffy. COMPETITION: The closest comparison for breakfast stuff would be Rosie's Northtown Cafe, and Diner 54 is definitely better. For burgers and fried chicken, the closest comparison would be Maxwell's, and I'd say they're about the same, quality-wise. ATMOSPHERE: The last time I went was for brunch on a Sunday and the place was PACKED! (Meaning there was a short wait, the restaurant was noisy, etc.) Otherwise, clean, comfortable, and cheery.

    OK, so we get there we order our food you know normal stuff and then we get the mashed potatoes and…read morethey're green and it looks like an alien urinated in them. The chicken looked like it had just been killed and not a good way and it was dry AF as said by the person who ate the chicken the chicken wraps were good and so the fries, but they were really big and also the tomatoes, kinda taste old. their chocolate milkshake was really good and it brought all the boys to the yard. The onion rings looked really bad, but I guess they were OK and most of the food was average. The service was good. We got our food pretty quickly and it was a quiet little restaurant. It was like little café. It also kind of looked like a trap house, but it was OK on the inside.

    Hi Y'all it's me again your favorite tell it like it is reviewer. This one is a mixed bag for The…read moreGypsy Highway. Let's start with the ambiance. Formerly known known as The Rusty Nail. It located across from the Mississippi Valley Fairgrounds on W. Lotus Street. They have a mixed menu of American and Thai dishes they offer. The Gypsy Highway's vibe is a cross between nostalgic late 70's, early 80's biker bar, live indoor/outdoor music venue, while being a full service restaurant and bar. They also have a small arcade in the back a few what look to be video poker or slot machines by the bar, 3 very large LED displays strategically placed around the bar and a massive projection screen TV on the indoor stage when nobody's playing. Sorry I didn't get to look outside at the wood fenced in area, where the wooden outdoor stage is. There is lots of seating and they even have dance nights, local bands perform regularly, and other events. Like when I went there was Trivia Night. This place has been a long time local scene in the West End of Davenport, IA for decades. Couple of the downsides about the atmosphere is the noise. It's Loud. For off hours and a Trivia Night, but not loud enough that you can't hear the person talking across a large round table ment for a party of 8-10 people. The amount of flashing lights in the place. If you have any issues with flashing lights you might not want to visit. There is not a single sight line place inside that does have some sort of constantly flashing light. Even lights that would have been of at any other venue or palace that host bands at their establishments wouldn't run strong stage color ambient lights on, especially those sitting behind a massive screen. Anyone sitting in the back and looking towards the stage (even though those seats not that many but unlucky) are in for a painful night out, if not there for a band. The food is 50/50 depending on what you get. Presentation wise I would give it 80 to 100%. I was with my family and got to try 4/5 dishes. They I had the Yellow Curry w/ Shrimp. I have to say it was really good. It was sweet and savory the Jasmine rice was delicious with it. My only complaint with the dish was it should have been served in served in a bowl of some kind and w/ some Naan bread to help clean the bowl at the end. Serving on a plate made the dish hard to eat. Next up Chicken Tinders and an order of Onion Rings. This should be avoided at all costs!! They look great, but have absolutely zero flavor and taste. That's hard to do when the batter is supposed to be Bear Batter. Same with the french fries. Next is a Cheese Burger w/ (+) Bacon and Onion Rings instead of the Fries. Well the burger was well made and delicious. The Bacon was thick crisp and 4 slices which was good. The replaced Onion Rings well that part gets worse. The count was a measly 5 and not even large ones at that! Last one I got to try was the blackens grilled fish. It was a fillet of haddock covered with some sort of white gravy served with a few pieces of zucchini and a couple of red potatoes halved. I didn't get to try the veg. The fish I did. By itself it was pretty good, but with the gravy it was not noticeably, not as good to almost being tasteless. The gravy overwhelms the fish and doesn't complement, nor enhance the flavor. The waitress we had was nice and answered our questions promptly. She did check in with us from time to time. Overall she gets a 9/10. Hope y'all like my review and read next time. Sorry no pics this time forgot my phone.
