Mary Lou's Grill

Very historic place lots of deep history. Food was fine can’t complain just not something I would seek out regularly. That being said the price was great and so was the service. Maybe I just haven’t found the right dish.

The staff and the food is top notch. This place will not leave you disappointed or hungry. I have not talked to one person in all the times eating here that wasn’t nice. Highly recommend it to everyone. The biscuits and gravy are the best and even better if you add hash browns on top.

From Chicago we stopped in after a full morning of hiking... Best breakfast I've had in a while. Everything was fresh, the biscuits and gravy were to freakinn die for. I cleared my plate and contemplated ordering more !! Plan on coming back to the area and this spot will be at the top of our list!

This establishment is a Carbondale icon that has been around since the early 60's. The biscuits and gravy are the best. Many of the menu items comes with biscuits and gravy as an appetizer. You have the option of eating in the dining room or at the counter. I enjoy the latter. It's sorta like stepping back in time. Iced tea and coffee are both good. Breakfast and lunch only. They close at 2pm.

First visit, we were treated as if our Server knew us. She was fabulous! Food was great and prices comparable to all othe breakfast/diner restaurants. We "will" be going back soon!!
