My coworker and I were greeted by Charles the owner. He asked how we heard about the diner, I told him some friends told me about it. I told Charles I wasn't picked and I eat whatever he recommended for breakfast. The prices are very reasonable and the portions are huge! You will not leave hungry. The dining area is small but very welcoming and the chairs are very comfortable. Next time your in the area put this on your to eat list. Support local small businesses!!!! You won't regret it! BOOM!!!!

A clean country diner with a full menu of homecooked meals, sandwiches, salads and desserts. I was…read morevisiting at the Bernard Funeral home in Russell Springs and had lunch afterwards at Esto's based on the reviews of their catfish dinner my friend was interested in. She indeed had the catfish dinner with cole slaw and onion rings. And she loved it, a huge order that would also be her dinner for the evening. I opted for the philly cheese steak sandwich tgat came with one side, coke slaw. The slaw was good and the sandwich was served with oinions and green peppers (I declined the mushrooms). It too was very good, steak was tender and the veggies were hot but still crunchy on a hoagie bun that was toasted. We had coconut and butterscotch pie for dessert. We split both slices and both, homemade were very tasty. Meriguine pilled high with creamy filling and great flavor. Plenty of parking, decent prices. They also have a drive thru. Service was efficient and friendly, although we did have to go up to the counter to order our desserts since the waitress didn't come back after we finished our meal to take our dessert orders. But the girl at the counter was nice enough to cut both slices of pie in half and put half of each in to go containers. Typical counrty cafe with clean bathrooms, a few booths, tables and a pay at the counter set up. I wouldn't drive 2 hours to eat here but if in the area I would return.

We had a super friendly waitress, Vickie, that greeted us and answered all of our questions. She…read moretold us about their famous catfish sandwich and my husband said she was spot on with the review of the fish. It was breaded with a light cornmeal and was crunchy and delicious. We ordered the fried mushrooms and they were lightly battered. They were amazing. They served them with ranch. Amazing. I had the regular cheeseburger which was cooked perfectly and served with crinkle French fries. I loved every bite. For dessert, my husband had warmed Dutch apple pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. What a way to end a meal!! I had the coconut cream pie which was fabulous as well. I would highly recommend this little place that serves amazing food with friendly faces. Thanks, Vickie and gang‼ Well done.

This is quite possibly the best restaurant to ever exist in Stanford…read more I grew up in Stanford, I can tell you that in the 1980's and 1990's that local restaurants here were nothing but no-name greasy spoon diners selling nothing but fairly generic "burger and fries" and breakfast food, and it was usually pretty lousy. I was back in the town I grew up in a couple of weeks ago, and heard there was a really nice cafe in Stanford now called the Bluebird, so I sought it out. I was amazed. This definitely is more like a place I would expect in Lexington or Louisville. The food is genuinely good. Iced coffee and espresso, hot browns, and lots of other food that was never in Stanford when I was growing up there as a kid. I know that Stanford went wet a few years ago in a referendum, but it's still surreal to see margaritas and other mixed drinks on the menu in a place in Stanford. The ambiance was friendly and welcoming, and struck a nice balance between small town friendly. I had a patty melt, which was probably the best meal I'd ever had in a restaurant in Stanford in my entire life. I will definitely be back the next time I come back to my old hometown.

Passing through en route to Georgia. Found this little gem on Yelp. Mr. Man had beef stroganoff…read more House made, excellent flavor, enought to feed 3 people. I had a Swiss mushroom burger. Freshly sautéed shrooms, cooked perfectly, juicy, seasoned well, served on a brioche bun. They offered a great selection of sides. I chose the chicken lemon orzo soup. It was a generous serving abundant w tender chicken. Our server, Autumn, was personable and, simply, just perfect at her job. We will return.

Listen. What a wild place. We were in town on a mini vacation and this place BLEW ME AWAY... for…read moresome reasons you could expect. And others you wouldn't. Let's start with the expected: chicken fried chicken was amazing. The loaded fry appetizer also amazing. Sides were great. Mac and cheese and green beans both well above average to me. The waitresses were all so helpful and sweet. But let's talk about the other amazing part. This place feels right out of a post apocalyptic movie! If you've ever wanted to feel "out of this world" or in a community fenced off from the zombie apocalypse and struggling to make you feel some normalcy in your life... THIS IS THE PLACE. My goodness I loved it. An old couple in the corner was playing some Garth Brooks covers to set the mood. A "straight from the 80s arcade room" in the back had some flashing lights shine through the doorway into the main dining room. Also... this place was packed. The dusty parking lot did not have a single spot for us open and we had to wait on a parking spot. No wait when we got inside luckily. But back to the post apocalyptic vibe... I really can't explain it much better. The 80s arcade... the wood paneling on the walls. The old toy heavy machinery and trains lining the walls. The smell of the food thickening the air. Even the staff... all unique as can be!!! Don't forget the overstock Christmas plates they pulled out for us to use!!! Highly recommend this place for the food... but if you've ever wanted to experience what a restaurant would be like after the zombies take over... Give yourself a treat and come here!!!
