For a small place, its service and food vastly belie the compact nature of its environment. I had one of the best burgers I've had in a long, long time, and this just returning from San Diego, CA, a place known for great burgers, notably "Hodads". The side salad was, unbelievably, even better. Fresh, robust in size, and it just complemented the burger better than I'd have ever imagined. My wife had mixed veggies, avocado, rice, and pintos. All were good/great but the pintos were singularly her plates star. The place was impeccably clean, including the bathrooms. Staff was courteous and professional in all interactions. Literally a smaller venue in a smaller town, that easily is punching above its weight class. Highly recommended.

This was a lovely little find on our way back from TN to MD, just of 81 in Marion, VA. We all got…read morethe burrito bowls - chicken & steak. Good quantity for the price, the bowl was $10!

Quick easy and delicious !

To go with it, I subbed a salad instead of fries, and for a small up-charge, I had a half of their pear and blue salad sans the bacon. It was so good! I want to go back for a whole salad and try one of their flatbreads to go with it, so I can bring some leftovers home for lunch the next day. Now, if they had a cocktail offering with a product from the nearby distiller, I would have made him be designated instead of me.

The fish had an amazing coating, it was very flavorful, but not overwhelming, the fish was flaky, and cooked to perfection. I Loved the hush puppies.

This was honestly the best meal I've had out in a while. We will definitely be eating here again while we are in town. I wish I had taken pictures.

The salads come loaded with banana peppers, black and green olives, shredded carrots, diced onions, tomatoes and shredded mozzarella. It's a salad that needs very minimal dressing because it's just so flavorful on its own! The servers are quite friendly as well. We also love that they have live music on Saturday nights! Tonight, Billy Steele sang and played guitar. Our family loves Moon Dog and will continue to come here for casual, delicious dining!

The people here are super friendly and quick with service. I try to make it out at least once a week.

The place outside/inside wasn't much to look at but the reviews said the food was good. The reviews were right about the food, and sketchy bathrooms. It didn't mention the gnats and flys we shared our lunch with. While I killed several, I think they were just the scouts... The salad was fresh with peppers, tomatoes, and cucumber. The Stromboli and "taste of Italy " were delicious. Overall service and food were EXCELLENT but I don't think I could dine in again. Get your food to go and you will enjoy.

And the food itself was...above average, I'd say. Nothing stunning, but okay stuff. Now, the dislikes: really small seating area with some rickety wooden chairs. If you can't fit in a booth, they have like one 4 person table and the rest tiny 2 person ones. The chicken stromboli I got came served on a small metal plate that was hard to eat from, and the bathrooms were pretty terrible. About what you'd expect in a high traffic place like this at a truck stop. It's overall a 3 star place, I'd say. Nothing great, nothing awful, would consider stopping again if I'm in the area. Next time I'll try the gyro.
