I took my wife and mother-in-law to the boiler room restaurant for Mother's Day. This is the second…read moreconsecutive year we have gone for their Mother's Day buffet. The food ranged from very good ( fried chicken) too awful (cold hash browns) and everything else was somewhere in the middle. The chicken alone pretty much made it worthwhile. A thinly sliced brisket was also quite good. Evidently the main crowd comes before noon on Mother's Day and we had reservations at 1 PM. The room is nearly empty and unfortunately, the buffet was pretty worked over. We will probably come again because we like not having to wait in a long line to eat on that special day. The room was nothing fancy and the humidity was very high because you're eating near the pool. I recommend that you try it but keep your expectations realistic.

Our server Hailey was very bubbly and welcoming from the start. She made sure we took our time to figure out what we all wanted. Took my dad out for early father's day lunch. We all got sweet tea. Husband went with the all you can eat chicken option. Which they do that on Wednesdays and Sundays. You can mix/match dark or white meat. You get all the sides. Dumplings, mashed potatoes, greenbeans, corn, coleslaw, and apple sauce. He was full and definitely enjoyed the chicken. My dad did the chicken meal 2 dinner with 2 sides. I have food left over for later. I was so full. Food came out in timely manner. And for what we paid in total with 3 people wasnt too shabby. Theor parking lot is off to the side and wraps around l. They do have aome street side parking. Or some park across the way in a lot. Good ol days Is a staple in new baden. When you're burnt out on going to chains like cracker barrel.

Niece got a slice of coconut cream and I got blackberry pie! We couldn't possibly eat them after that big meal. We tore into them once we back in STL though and yum! So good! One note, they only take cash and checks. Didn't know there were still places that did that. The waiter made sure we knew as we sat down, there is an on-site ATM if needed.
