My husband and I ordered chicken fried steaks, which were okay but not remarkable. The side dishes were particularly disappointing. In fact, both of my daughters couldn't finish their meals and described theirs as "disgusting." This might have just been an off night for the restaurant, as we've been there many times before and have always had great meals.

The loaded baked potato was generously topped with crispy green onions, bacon bits, cheese, and sour cream. The house salad was fresh, featuring ripe tomatoes and a delicious ranch dressing. To top it all off, the Dr. Pepper Chocolate Cake, served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, was a delightful way to end the meal. Our server, David, was fantastic. I will definitely be back!

The food was tasty, but I thought the portions were a bit on the small side. Just as I was about to leave, the lunch crowd arrived, and I ended up waiting nearly fifteen minutes to pay my bill because the staff was busy handling all the new customers. It could be helpful for them to have additional assistance during busy times, as many diners are often pressed for time.

Wonderful menu selection with the freshest home style food imaginable. Don’t ask me for a favorite, there is always something new on the menu that will be my next favorite. When it comes to staff, ask for Crystal. She has taken care of me and my wife several times. She is a great example of a top notch staff at the Patch.
