Every so often, one stumbles upon a restaurant that’s so outrageously wonderful they can’t help but keep coming back to it time and time again; there are a handful of such restaurants in the Dakotas, so let’s take a look at a family-owned hole-in-the-wall in Mandan that’s so over-the-top delicious, it deserves a medal (or 10). The same folks have owned this little family-owned restaurant in North Dakota for more than 25 of the 75+ years it’s been open, and it shows – it’s one little place you’ll want to return to over and over again. Check it out!

This little mom-and-pop stop is a long-time favorite of ours here at OnlyInYourState, and it's a long-time favorite of the locals, too!

Here, you'll find the best breakfast and lunch diner classics, all of which will arrive at your table perfectly prepared and absolutely delish.

In fact, we would argue - and probably successfully at that - that the humble nature of the place only adds to its charm. It seriously just means you're about to get a wonderful homestyle meal that'll taste like grandma made it.
