    Filet entered correctly as medium, came out well done
    Stephanie H.

    Sadly, I was so disappointed in this meal that I can barely give it three stars. We had heard mixed reviews since they opened at the new location in Marion, so we decided to give them some time to work out the kinks. I like to make my own judgments and didn't want bad experiences of others to sway me. Since they have been open a while now, we decided to finally give them a try. We called ahead and I was told by the girl who answered the phone that they didn't take reservations for the patio, and that they also wouldn't be offering service on the patio that evening. If we wanted to sit on the patio, we would need to order at the bar and take our food outside. We chose to make an inside reservation instead. Once we arrived and were seated, I watched multiple parties seated on the patio, and they were receiving full service. Later that evening, I noticed a post on their Facebook page that they were offering full service on the patio that evening starting at 4pm. It was posted hours before I had called to enquire. It would have been nice to have the person answering the phone for reservations to have the correct information to share. Not a huge deal, but was still frustrating given the beautiful weather that evening. On to the meal. We started with bread. It was served with cinnamon butter and garlic and herb butter. It was served warm and it was very good. Next up was the bacon spinach side salad. It comes with a warm bacon vinaigrette dressing which is also very good. The salad and bread were the best part of the meal and the only reason I'm leaving three stars. For the main entrees: I had the filet with baked potato and brussel sprouts. My husband had the ribeye with baked potato and brussel sprouts. Both steaks were ordered medium. My filet was well done. No pink at all. I used A1 to help add some flavor, but typically prefer no steak sauce when a filet is seasoned and cooked correctly. The ribeye was cooked to the correct specifications, but according to my husband it lacked any flavor or seasoning. It was very bland as well. The brussel sprouts are described as bacon roasted, but they were not very good at all and lacked any bacon flavor, we both declined to eat them. The baked potatoes were not cooked all of the way and were kind of hard, making it difficult to mix in butter or sour cream. For a $175 meal (after tip), this was not at all what we expected. Unfortunately, the food and the experience were very disappointing.

    What a fantastic dining experience! Our server, Megan, deserves an A+! She was friendly, knowledgeable, and even shared the history of the restaurant with us. The filet was hands down one of the best I've ever eaten, and the Halloween themed cocktails were as creative as they were delicious. The restaurant itself is beautiful, overlooking Marion's gorgeous downtown square. It's the perfect spot for a celebration or a night out on the town. Marion is very lucky to have stolen this perfect gem from Benton. We cannot wait to return.

    When you walk in, there isn't a sign or anyone telling you to seat yourself. The place was busy on…read morea Saturday evening around 5:30pm, and another guest actually told us to grab a seat wherever we would like after we stood there at the door for a bit. There were 3 ladies serving the entire restaurant. From what I could tell, they were responsible for drink orders, bringing out food, bussing tables, and plating desserts and bringing those out too. There are no menus and only 1 option for family style chicken and fish, with a salad, bread, and sides consisting of corn, mashed potatoes and gravy, dumplings, and green beans. They don't tell you this. I had spoken to another guest, so I knew this was the case, but if I hadn't, with this being our first visit, I would have been very confused. We had a very young waitress who was still new. She was doing her best, and I felt bad for her, but we waited for extended periods of time on food, and never had a drink refill. The only thing hot when the food came out was the chicken. All of the sides were barely warm at all. The fish and hush puppies were also not hot. They bring you one piece of chicken each, and then we waited 20+ minutes for additional food once we were able to finally ask the waitress for more. The table next to us ordered desserts when we got our bread and drinks, and they still didn't have them when we had already finished our meal, paid the bill, and were leaving. The waitress explained to them that she had to make the desserts herself and she was slammed with just trying to bring food out and get drink orders and that she was still new. She apologized multiple times, but it's not a good system at all. They need someone bussing tables, so the waitresses can focus on drinks and food. They need a sign that tells you to seat yourself. They need to ask if it's your first visit when they walk up to get your drink order so they can explain how they do things if it's your first visit. The bread and strawberry butter was my favorite part of the meal. The side salad had a good flavorful dressing, but only comes as a bowl of lettuce with a couple grape tomatoes sliced in half. The food had good flavor, even though it was cold and we waited for extended periods of time to receive it. The restaurant was clean. Since you have no menu and no idea what to expect, the prices are $18.95 each, and a 4% up charge for debit or credit cards as of July 2025. Unfortunately, we were not impressed at all and probably would not visit again based on this first experience.

    We ate there today and it was great! Chicken was outstanding and fish and sides were all good too…read more Wish I knew what kind of salad dressing they used. It is addictive. Bill was easy to read. Also took home 2 dinners and there is plenty of chicken in both of them. Don't know what some people's problem is.
