We decided to check it out since becoming Mom's, and I was a bit disappointed. The service was really nice and serving sizes, generous but my food was room temperature and bland. I had the biscuits and gravy, bacon, and hash browns. My husband's food was hot and he said taste good. His fries and sandwich were fresh and hot. I know because I tasted a steaming hot fry. He tasted mine and agreed my food was not even warm. My bacon actually had that greasy film it gets when it sits and gets cold. I didn't say anything because I have never sent food back and wouldn't feel comfortable doing so.

Good people and food.

The salad bar has some different things, as well, like pickled herring. I ordered the massive fried pork tenderloin and a side of onion rings, some of the best I've had anywhere, and I've probably had them in 30+ countries. The tenderloin had a light batter crust, crispy but fried just lightly enough that the pork retained it's juicyness. They have a number of fish offerings, I hope to return to try some of those.

When you walk in, you get a kind of sports bar / restaurant vibe. We were greeted and seated quickly, and started looking at the menu. There were sooooo many good things available - I decided to get their Chicken Fingers and Pulled Pork combo. My wife just got the chicken fingers. We started with an order of cheese curds. There were only two of us, and this was an order big enough for four. We toughed it out - the cheese was mozzrella with a very light batter, kind of tempura. The cheese curds were served with ranch dressing, and were fresh out of the fryer. The main courses came later, and when I saw my plate, I thought - DANG - I should have just ordered this for both of us. It was big enough to feed two people - large portions (full portion) of chicken fingers, full portion (6 ounces) of pulled pork, and a large portion of fries. The chicken fingers came with a creamy sauce for dipping - I liked it, my wife wasn't a fan. No worries, I used hers. Service was very good, the food was excellent, and they kept the glasses full. There is outdoor seating so you can be out looking at the sun, and they even have a shaded section. We'll be back - it was good.

We've been eating at Culver's in Dixon every Friday night for 3-years and usually, the food is…read morefantastic. However, 3 out of 5 times, our order is messed-up; which requires a trip back across town to remedy the situation. It seems when we have the time to check our order before leaving, that the order is correct, but every time we don't, the order is messed-up. We understand that mistakes happen, but having them happen so often is very frustrating. Last night, after having to hold the clerk's hand through the ordering process, (he seemed untrained, or *if* trained; hadn't retained the information. The process was slow, riddled with errors, and just excruciating ), a burger was missing from our order upon our return home, and we were also given the wrong size of side. We were in a hurry last night, and of course, didn't check our order before leaving the restaurant. So, back across town we drove to have the order fixed. After so many mistakes in the past, my fiancé was fed-up and her energy wasn't the best upon our return to Culver's. There was no swearing or screaming by my fiancé, just frustration and a terse tone from having to return to the restaurant so often to fix their mistakes. The manager decided to match that energy and the exchange I witnessed between she and my fiancé was pretty unbelievable. The sticking-point was the wrong size of side. We had ordered a large several times through the ordering-process, but received a medium. Upon checking our receipt, we'd only *paid* for the medium, but my fiancé felt the upgrade to the large should have been comped, considering the wasted time, gas, and these mistakes happening way too often. The manager felt differently and insisted upon charging for the upgrade, which would have been ok, if her energy about the situation had been better. She seemed more offended that my fiancé expressed that the clerk initially taking the order was untrained than she was making a mistake on a $50 burger order. She was snarky, argumentative, and after seeing her deal with my fiancé like this, I just stepped-in and requested a full refund; which was given without hesitation and with as flippant of an attitude as I've ever seen from someone in management dealing with this type of situation. I was wowed by the entire exchange. So, now, instead of the buck or whatever that Culver's may have lost on the upgrade, they've lost $50 in business every Friday, because the manager couldn't check her ego. That's EXACTLY what the issue was. She was rubbed wrong by my fiancés energy, and did nothing to de-escalate the situation. In fact, she seemed to be happy about making things even worse. In our careers, one mistake can get us fired. We understand that everyone is on edge now, and are as tolerant and understanding as possible with people, but these mistakes happening so often and having the manager so apathetic was remarkable. This girl shouldn't be managing anything, and we've made our final Friday night run to Culver's. I'm sure another local restaurant will appreciate the business and even get our order correct.

The bathrooms were spotless and smelled pleasant. Someone cares. I decided to go with Arby's Wagyu Burger (which per the sign on the window was 51% Wagyu and 49% ground beef). It was served hot, made fresh, and tasted great. The crinkle cut fries were good, but I still miss my potato cakes (Arbys Corporate - Do you get this yet?) I also had a drink, and the drink machine worked just fine. Pretty hard to complain, and others at the restaurant were ringing the "good food" bell (to the right of the door on the north side) to agree. In, out and done fast too.
