    We had reservations here, heard how great this place was. We got drinks ($22) for 2 drinks. Then waited and waited, poor service, not too many people dining here so no need for the poor service. We paid for the drinks and left. Can't say anything about the food, oh yes, the bread was warm and good.

    When I come in town to see family I make a point to enjoy a dinner here. The food and service are exceptional and the gf accommodation of food is much appreciated. The ambiance is nice and even if there's a large party in the restaurant it doesn't make the restaurant loud. A hidden gem !

    We recently enjoyed a family member's birthday dinner at Glen Prairie. Several of us had a delicious pasta special. There were very positive reactions to the trout and burger also. Glen Prairie is always nice because you are never rushed, the food is delicious and the service is great.

    Had the pulled pork Mac and cheese and all I could taste in the pulled pork bbq sauce was mustard, no other flavor, the Mac and cheese was phenomenal though

    Good Afternoon, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review for us. We take all guest feedback seriously and always do our best to make improvements. I am so sorry to hear you did not enjoy the pork on the Mac N Cheese, I have passed your feedback along to our Chef. Our Mac and Cheese is also available by itself or with the addition of our braised short ribs instead also! We hope that this does not deter you from dining with us again in the future, Sincerely, Ashley M.

    Our dinner was outstanding and plated beautifully. I think that the bread is a little crusty. The table and chairs are very comfortable. We were there on a Wednesday early so it was quiet but we've been there in the weekend and does get louder. Our waitress was pleasant and on top of things. Parking can be tight. I think anybody that goes here will be Happy with the menu and choices, great value and a pleasant atmosphere.

    I think your portions are too small for what you charge. The food quality is good, but not where I'm leaving hungry after spending about forty bucks. You have a nice place there, but I will not be back.
