Hubby had a cup of broccoli salad as a side, I had Swedish slaw. Both sides were excellent and we both agreed that the sandwiches were fantastic! Normally they have pies and sweets available, but unfortunately not today. The reason why was a great reason, but to long to go into here.

But my grandmas always said don't judge someone or something off appearance alone. Staff was great. Even jokes around with us. Our waitress was busy and another got us refills but told us to tell our waitress she was a terrible server. So I did and she knew exactly which lady helped us so then they traded each other for a couple minutes. I got French toast, scrambled eggs and a ham steak. The wife got cinnamon swirl French toast, scrambled eggs and bacon. The French toast was wonderful. It was fluffy yet slight crunch to it with great cinnamon taste. As some warm syrup and it was a home run. The cinnamon swirl French toast was even better. The eggs were dry but as hot sauce and they were fine. The bacon was crispy and the ham steak was heated up just fine. If the review was based off food and service alone 5 stars all day long but we sat too close to the smoking room and someone with asthma it's not great place to be near. It was the only spot open when we got there. If they didn't have the smoking room definitely would have been higher rating for us.

There were several good vegetarian options available to us. We ended up ordering: - Avocado toast: this is an interesting take on avocado toast, it includes pico de gallo, but was really, really tasty. It came with two eggs too. - Power Greens Breakfast Bowl: very good option! The flavor was great, the toppings were fresh, and the eggs were a nice protein addition. - Garden salad: a HUGE salad with plenty of chunky veggies. The portions are quite large. We ended up with leftovers, which worked out well for us. If we have to be back in Bolivar again, we'll definitely be repeat customers.

My grandma used…read moreto take me here all the time, and I loved their food -- it was one of those hometown staples that felt comforting and special. Because of that history, I came in with high hopes, but I left incredibly disappointed. The service was awful. Our server, Christy, was friendly to me but noticeably rude to my husband, which felt unprofessional and uncomfortable. It was such a strange, almost hostile energy at the table, and it immediately soured the experience. Then the food came, and it was nothing like it used to be. What used to taste like good, home-style cooking now felt bland, poorly prepared, and honestly not worth eating. I could tell right away it wasn't the same standard Smith's used to be known for. What really stood out, though, was the atmosphere. Even though there were quite a few people inside, the restaurant was silent. At first, I thought it was odd, but after tasting the food and experiencing the service, it made sense. People weren't enjoying themselves. The silence said everything. It breaks my heart to write this, because Smith's used to mean so much to me growing up. But this visit left me disappointed, uncomfortable, and sad that a place once so loved has lost the warmth and quality it used to have.

We ordered a to-go dinner of their JUMBO pork tenderloin sandwiches and Classic Cheeseburgers. Both were amazing and that's an understatement.

The inside area only has about 4 booths but they have an outside seating area on the water.

I felt like it was a decent price for the amount of food- $16 and it came with a soup, dumpling, main dish, fried rice, salad and small roll. We both enjoyed our soup. I don't usually like Miso, but this was nice and not too salty. And my sister said the hot and sour soup was great. I got the cashew chicken and it was good. Not great, but good. My sister had the General's Chicken and she said it was very good and very spicy. The roll was OK, but I wasn't expecting to be wowed. I did not try any of the other sushi. I read other reviews that mentioned it was an old Pizza Hut, and it still looks like one. So you aren't going here for the ambiance. My sister said she went there often when it was a Pizza Hut and they still had the same tile and lights. The service was nice, polite and attentive. I went in just looking for some decent edible food in a small town, and I feel like they delivered. I enjoyed my Dinner Box and am looking forward to my leftovers tonight!
