**Restaurant Review: Starduster – A Hidden Gem Full of Potential** Starduster, nestled near an airfield, offers the promise of a delightful dining experience with hearty portions and friendly service. While some patrons recall its glory days of exceptional food and atmosphere, recent reviews reveal areas needing improvement. Patrons have noted the need for updated furnishings, a thorough deep clean, and consistent food execution. Despite these shortcomings, dishes like the chicken fried steak and creative breakfast options receive praise. The inviting location may attract families looking for a fun outing, yet many hope for a revival of the restaurant's former charm and quality to truly shine again.

Was Zook Enigma at Starduster Cafe a mag?
Extremely fast service, great diner food, ridiculous portions, and amazing staff. Had a party if 12 high school football players in front of us and our waitress said it may be a min because of this. No big deal for us, but we got our order in less than 20 min. Huge menu, amazing prices in this day and age, great atmosphere, and very good food. 9 out of 10 we will come back for sure.

What Samantha Foodie dislikes about Starduster Cafe:
A basic small town restaurant. The waitresses were visibly overwhelmed which then caused for rush careless service. Food was very basic and flavorless. I will say the portion sizes are very large so you do get a lot for what you pay for, I just wish the flavor was there. View all feedback.

Traditional cafe serves fantastic breakfasts at the small local airport. My cheese crepe and hashbrowns were excellent. Service was great. Fun to observe how airplanes get out and look into the hangers as we ate. They have seats in the indoor and outdoor areas and accept orders.

You get HUGE portions (more than one person could ever eat). And the service is phenomenal. And the food is good. The potatoes are somehow the hard side that I like them. The only thing I found a little weird. Is that there cinnamon rolls in pans in the window covers while you go to the bathroom. So literally someone could touch them. But they looked delicious. I'm not a germ ophobe. So it didn't bother me too much. But it's kind of weird. Also, they do not mask. What bothers me again. But it could interfere with other people.

Been going here since I was a little kid, place is a little worn and outdated, but still has good memories. I definitely recommend take your little ones here

Very friendly and professional staff It did take at least 30 min. to get our food but it was busy, it was near 11 a.m., the Central Lions Club was having their amazing car show in town, so that added more customers too, they are a small cafe and the one cook was doing his best. The food was really yummy and the waitstaff did keep the coffee coming. The portions were large and prices were reasonable, definitely got our monies worth! I would come back!
