Mike's On The Corner - Town of Scio

I found the food at this restaurant to be enjoyable, but I was really disappointed when I arrived with my family an hour before closing time, only to discover that they had already stopped serving food. It's important for restaurants to adhere to their advertised hours; otherwise, they risk losing customers.

This is a fantastic place for a delicious meal. The prime rib served on Saturday nights is exceptional!

I had the fish fry accompanied by tater tots, and I finished off my meal with some homemade carrot cake for dessert.

I checked some other reviews to see if our experience was some sort of one-off, but no, there seems to be history of inconsistency. So this review detail may not be accurate for another day, it was a mixed bag, basically showing there is not enough standards/procedures and/or the managing staff is not implementing or enforcing it.My Wife and I came in on a Friday around 11:45, there was only two other tables with people at that time. Our waitress was caught up on the (landline) phone behind the bar for some time, but apologized for the wait and came visiting the table extra times later to make up for it, so that was likely an exception.The coffee was burnt, likely had sat for more than 1 hour on the burner. Procedures should be in place to make a new pot whenever an order comes after it has been sitting for a while.The Burger was not cooked medium as ordered, it was mostly well done, but not dry. Burger did not have the bacon I ordered, but it also was missing from the bill. Otherwise the burger and the sweet potato fries where good.The Fish Fry was good, good batter, cooked nicely, good tartar sauce. The regular Fries where stale, Likely had been made prior or in a multi-plating operation, which should be a no-no in any restaurant, the fries go on last. Coleslaw was good in flavor but the cutting was way to chunky, and the sauce too runny.As we sat there the lunch rush came in, an extra waitress started at that time as well but one could tell it was a struggle for them to keep up, things a but out of order and we heard some comments on that.So all in all, it is probably a great bar with generally okay food, but it could be so much better overall if ownership/managing staff implemented or enforced standards/procedures to improve consistency.

Good food, fast service, clean tables and friendly staff.
