We traveled to Durant Oklahoma Friday to the Choctaw health center. And after we left there we traveled the back road into Durant and came across Sherrer's Restaurant. We decided to give it a try. I like mom and pop restaurants and it looked like it would be one. And my husband ordered the catfish. And I had a burger and onion rings. And we were not disappointed at all. It had that old fashioned taste and everything was wonderful. I especially enjoyed the onion rings! My husband had two big pieces of catfish which he said was great. The lady that waited on us was so friendly and gave us great service! The restaurant was kind of old but it had a great flow thru it and plenty of room. read more

Sherrer's Restaurant - Hamburger Steak. Chefs Kiss - New American Near Me - Durant, Oklahoma

It was pretty good for such a old ass place. We had good service, but I'm glad we were the only in there, because only one person was working the front. read more

Be ware of hidden charges. First off, the food is less than mediocre. As for the price gouging .... I ordered a $7.50 sandwich with a side and a glass of tea. Imagine my surprise when I see a total of $15. I was told that my onion rings were a $1.50 surcharge. The waiter offered me this option, without me asking, but failed to tell me that he was going to gouge me. Also, he incorrectly calculated the total charge. It came down to $13. By the way, the onion rings were the worst ever. The chicken fried steak meat was simply something that came out of a box. Stay away. I will never be back. read more

Great food! Great burgers! I didn't even know this place was open, they always look closed, but the server assured me they are open all the time. Really good food. The chili was pretty darn good and had a different taste than most chili, but was good. read more

Food was amazing!! Great service The BLT was delicious. And the open faced steak sandwich was a family favorite. read more

Me and 2 friends arrived at the place with nobody to greet us. We sat down for 10 min and not a waiter in sight. Couldn't even do the bare minimum when I comes to costumer service so we left and went to a different restaurant. read more

If you have a better burger in durant you're actually just lying about that. Nothing beats this fucking place! Great burgers, great prices, homemade pie. Stop eating at fast food joints and come here. Seriously. read more

This place is awesome!!! Great burgers, onion rings, Fried fish and french fries, hush puppies, oh and their special house salad dressing is really tasty.. good on salad and good on onion rings or fish! It's kind a like thousand Island dressing but much better. The waitress was very attentive and kind. We even asked if she was the owner. She seem to have enjoyed her job and taking care of the place as if she was. She said she was actually the newest staff there. I guess my suggestion for the place would be to put more lighting in the parking lot. read more

Escaping from an unwarranted wait for seating at all the local casino dining venues and Naifeh's across the street, last Saturday night, we drove into downtown Durant. We googled this one, and drove to the location. Hesitancy of expectations because of nearly empty parking lot, at 6 pm, was overcome by our time constraints, and the "Open" sign lit, so we took a chance and took further look. What we found was a gem, and an excellent cafe. The cafe serves a variety of family friendly home style menu items, served up in extremely generous portions, properly prepared, quickly served and by attentive wait staff. My wife had beef burrito and it was excellently prepared, consisting of two huge tortilla wrapped, delectably prepared ground beef, lettuce, chopped tomato, onion, and a very nice medium salsa on side. I had the deep fried catfish filets (2- very large), which came with oven baked potato, and choice of several sides. I chose the mixed green salad, which was well selected, cold, fresh, and I clearly made the correct dressing selection of "house- Sherers's Special Dressing", which was excellent. Save room for freshly made pies, baked on site daily. We had a chocolate cream, and a coconut cream and both were fabulous. A special treat is that this is the cafe's 66th year open. It has had the same owner since opened in 1948. Leon Sherrer, Cain in hand, visited with us while we awaited our meals. His son is the general manager. His grandson is the chief cook. If you are traveling through Durant, bring your appetite to this cafe. Except for the lack of ANY real butter, this is the place to eat. We will be back. read more

Sherrer's Restaurant - Although seemingly deserted when we arrived at 6 pm on a Saturday night, it filled up quickly after we ordered food. - New American Near Me - Durant, Oklahoma

Busy as can be at noonish time but got great service. Excellent hush puppies and catfish. Will go back and try more.

Very good, greasy burgers and a lot of other fried options. They seem to be offering some other healthier options lately. I hope the owners will invest some money into fixing up the building and parking that have seen better days. read more

When we first walked in it looked old & dated but it has been open for 66 years this year! It's a seat yourself option and there were only two other tables occupied. We felt welcomed and the staff is friendly. In spite of the age the place is clean. The menu is simple and we all opted to try the burgers. The patties were hand made and I found it to be a really good burger. The crinkle cut frozen fries were over done but didnt taste horrible. In fact if the fries had been hand cut freah fries id have given 5 stars. The strawberry pie was EXCELLENT! I am not huge on strawberries but that was by far the best pie! read more

Feels like your walking back in time when you go into this diner. It has been around since 1948 and is still owned/ran by same family. The hand breaded chicken nuggets are great. The pies are all homemade and fabulous! If your ever heading through Durant this should definitely be a pitstop. Great hospitality, nostalgia, and food! read more

The best burger in southeast Oklahoma! This place opened in the 40's and is still owned and operated by the original owner and his family! In fact, he still walks around the room and chats with everyone. Super nice guy as is the rest of his family. I've never really ventured far away from the bacon cheeseburger but there is definitely some great food on the menu. I am also a fan of the fried cheese raviolli. Even though this burger ties with another favorite of mine as #1, the best items on the menu are the pies. The owner makes them all from scratch including the whipped cream topping on the strawberry pie. I don't really care for fresh strawberries myself but I can eat this pie all day long! My biggest worry is that fewer and fewer young people are going there these days and they don't advertise much although they are quietly involved in local community service. Please try this place out and get their business booming once again! read more

One of the best locally owned restaurants in Durant. Amazing house sauce. Onion rings hand breaded and fried to perfection. Cheeseburgers are thick and juicy. Awesome food, awesome prices. read more

Well I ate there last night the waitress was good... The food was not good at all the chicken fried steak was dried out and the mashed potatoes were cold and the chocolate pie tasted burnt. Sorry but not some place I will ever go to again read more

Looooove the onion rings. Always have good service and feel at home there. My favorite besides the onion rings are the chicken fried steak sandwich and the rueben sandwich. It's so huge I have yet to finish a whole one read more

Great food! The hamburgers and onion rings are the best in town. They also have good salads and fried fish.
