Molly J’s Café can also be called Molly J’s Restaurant. This surprisingly humble restaurant provides fast service within its small area.
When I first walked in, I expected to wait to be seated. But instead, the waitress quickly got my partner and me seats with the menus.
The menu consisted of a variety of food. It was a lot of food for a small restaurant. The prices were fair and ranged from an okra appetizer for $4.79 to a T-bone steak for $18.99.
One thing that bothered me was the serving of breakfast and dinner because they had a time limit for when they could serve it.
But either way, I came up with my decision and decided to get a $10.99 chicken breast dinner, which waschicken strips. I also included a quesadilla appetizer because I thought I would still be hungry afterward.
The waitress kindly took my order, but I was overwhelmed with the options offered for the side orders. I honestly don’t remember all the options, but I got what I remembered I could get and ordered. On the side orders, I got some chicken noodle soup, chili and crackers, garlic toast and French fries.
As I waited for my order, I got a chance to look around at the pictures and art in the room. There was a huge painting, which impressed me because it was actually painted on the wall. I felt a warm feeling in this place, which caused me to be happy and smile at my partner.
The food did not take long to arrive, so I got my chicken noodle soup first. I’ve never had chicken noodle soup before, but it was fantastic. Next came the quesadilla appetizer. This was a huge $5.99 appetizer, and I tried to eat all of it, but it had too much cheese.
The rest of my food was served at the same time, and to be honest, I knew I needed a doggy bag, so I could finish it. The chicken strip dinner came along with some dipping sauce, fries and chili. Everything was hot and fresh, so I had to fight the temptation of not burning myself.
I enjoyed the food very much: The strips were hot and tender, the chili was OK, the fries needed more salt, but I honestly enjoyed everything.
While I was taking a break from all this food, I was talking to my partner about the service and all of a sudden one of the waitresses came by our table and refilled my Pepsi.
There was nothing wrong with her refilling my drink, but she was not holding a pitcher to refill but another cup of Pepsi.
At first, I thought she got a random cup and poured the remaining soda in mine. So, just as a word of advice, always ask the guest if he or she needs a refill.
The service on the whole was great, and I spent less than $25. One of the employees was staring at my partner and me. For whatever reason I did not know, but I did not like it. This same employee was also the cashier and was not very welcoming compared to the other waitresses.
The environment was great, the service was great, but the employees should rethink their actions. I loved this place, and I am definitely going back to eat there.
