    Interesting beer and wine selections and the food dishes all had a unique twist. The sauce for the firecracker shrimp was delicious and the macaroni and cheese was very good. The pork and short rib sliders were very flavorful. Our waiter Dusty was very attentive. We will be back.

    As always, Glen Prairie did not disappoint. We love the great food, ambiance, and the service. Edna is simply lovely and so friendly and helpful. Tonight we had an early dinner- my husband and I shared the magnificent onion rings. I had the smash burger and it was so delicious. My husband had the cream of asparagus soup, and he said it was great. We will be back again!

    Everything was wonderful. Two in our party of four have gluten allergies and the staff happily walked us through the menu and the many options and variety of choices. Our waitress Edna was very helpful and attentive and we all really enjoyed our food and the ambiance. Glen Prairie is a new favorite spot for us and we will definitely be back agin!

    For the price, we have had much better meals at other local restaurants which was too bad because we had high hopes for this restaurant.
