    We were super excited to try this place on our way to visit our daughter. Our experience was very disappointing and not at all like the reviews we read. The service was unwelcoming to say the least. Our server was more interested in gossiping at the drink station & being on her phone than being at work. We thought the food would be great even if the service was terrible. We were very wrong about that. Nothing we ordered tasted fresh or made to order. Greasy and tasteless. I would definitely suggest trying something else in Fort Scott.

    Two Egg Special

    This is Fort Scott's greasy spoon, and it has been around a long time. I had their double cheeseburger and fries for lunch awhile back and their two egg special for breakfast this morning. Both meals were quite tasty. The breakfast was very good bang for your buck as well. If you need a little grease in your life, this is the place to go.

    Jumbo pork tenderloin sandwich (lid removed) with tots...damn good

    Yeah, you should definitely eat here. In Fort Scott for a weekend baseball tourney and found this gem through the trusty Yelp app. Took the in-laws and two very hungry 16-year old boys to eat between games. The place is a bit chopped up, seemingly because they started in one space and then expanded and maybe expanded again (just a guess), but it's quite the find. Gluten, schmooten...I cheated, okay? I had the philly with onion rings. Okay, so onion rings come in several varieties, and I'm sure each person has their favorite type. I love the thin, hand battered kind, not the thick, heavily breaded kind, so I was in OR heaven! They were freaking amazing! Many, had the chicken fry meal, FIL had a burger with CRISPY (hate the barely fried ones) tater tots, and hubby had their signature item...the broasted chicken. The chicken was AMAZING. Oh, and the side salads that came with their meals were on a dinner plate and nearly filled the whole thing. We actually stopped here again on Sunday (Father's Day) but got there after 1 and since they close at 2 on Sundays, they had already shut down the chicken "broaster" for the day (told they do this 1 hour before closing). So, I couldn't get the chicken like I had planned. I got a burger (sans bun) to be somewhat "good", but damn if I didn't get the onion rings again...so sue me! Four stars for somewhat slow and not really attentive service (they were really busy both times we ate here), and the fact that I didn't get my chicken meal on trip #2.

    Weekend mini-vacation down to Fort Scott Kansas and dropped in the Nu Grill for dinner with the entire family. My wife and kids have eaten here before but it was y first time. My daughter talked about how good the burgers were and she was 100% correct. The Nu Grill is like a diner you would see in a movie and we were immediately greeted by the two guys working the grill as well as the waitress behind the counter. The burgers were awesome. If you're looking for lean, fat free ground beef, this is not your place. They hand cut their potatoes for fries and Suzy-Qs and the menu prices will shock you in a good way. $3.00 range for a burger! The only downside I can come up with was their soda fountain wasn't great and everything that came out of it was flat. Super friendly staff and great food gets my vote of approval.

    Excellent breakfast. Bacon, sausage, gravy with eggs and hash browns cooked to perfection. Definitely recommend.

    Average at best, yet some times appear to be cooked fresh. Nothing special but maybe 4 star in Ft. Scott but 2 Star in Kansas City

    Great place for breakfast. Just a typical small town diner. Friendly people. Try the cinnamon rolls. Yum.
