**A Mixed Bag at Howard's: A Local Dining Experience** At Howard's, patrons are greeted with a charming, retro ambiance reminiscent of simpler times, offering a diverse menu featuring everything from burgers to hearty comfort food. While many locals appreciate the generous portions and reasonable prices, including complimentary salads and drinks, recent reviews reveal a concerning decline in both food quality and service.

Was Tanya L at Howard's Cafe a mag?
I discovered this hidden gem while off the beaten path. The steak sandwich was outstanding, and the teriyaki chicken was just as delicious. Their cheeseburgers are amazing, and they have the best mozzarella sticks I’ve ever had! Every meal comes with a salad, which is a nice touch. The prices are unbeatable, and I can’t recommend this place enough! Oh, and I was thrilled to find High Noon for just $3.50! View all feedback.

What Robert D dislikes about Howard's Cafe:
I entered and was seated pretty promptly with my party. We were given menus and never had a waitress come to the table. Five waitresses stood around the station talking for the majority of the time we sat there. After nearly fifteen minutes of no attention or service we got up and left. No one even gave us a look. I've eaten here before so it wasn't any busier than other times I've gone there. Very disappointed to se... View all feedback.

The last time I was here before tonight was a few years ago and boy did the food go downhill. I ordered the chicken cordon blue and it was disappointing. The cutlet was bordering on burnt and the gravy was from a can. It was too salty and had an odd taste. For my side I ordered the pasta with garlic and oil. Pasta was overcooked and was sitting in a puddle of grease. My boyfriend ordered the London broil. The meat was tender but was swimming in a puddle of canned brown gravy and canned mushrooms that were just thrown on top. The dining room was old and dirty looking and service was ok. I'm not sure where all of the 5 stars are coming from. I won't be eating there ever again!!

Definitely a locals place... Great value and nothing fancy... The food was good, service was good and prices were very reasonable. Portions are huge and we ended up bringing home half of our orders. It seems like they get a mostly older clientele here. Been coming here for years but not often enough.
