Marty's Stew Shack — Restaurant in Anderson

Marty's Stew Shack is a true hidden gem! I'm so glad we found this hole in the wall restaurant. I don't think I've had a cheeseburger that was as delicious since my grandmother was alive. It was cooked to perfection, and Marty's special sauce is chef's kiss It's a sweet mayo that adds just the extra flavor you didn't know you needed.

The onion rings were the best I've ever had in my life. The only ones I've ever eaten where the onion actually stays inside the fried ring once you take a bite!

My husband loved his burger so much that he had to order another to take with him! My daughter loved the fried chicken tenders. She ate the chicken and fries kids meal and then ordered additional chicken tenders . That never happens...she's picky and doesn't eat much! They have lots of other delicious items on the menu, but I'm certain I'd have to go back with another burger when I visit again. They also have an impressive list of icee flavors, ice-creams, and desserts.

Marty's offers stew on certain days. I took a picture of the schedule for those interested. They offer beef stew, chicken stew, or goat stew, and it can be reserved ahead of time.. We enjoyed swinging under the covered patio even in this hot July heat. The bathrooms are separate from the actual restaurant, but they're so clean and spacious. It's the perfect setup.

Marty's is a little known wonder that's off the beaten path, but it's definitely worth the drive!

Try it. You won't be disappointed. You'll be planning your next trip to Anderson just...

Been a while since we have ate here and typically they are good, but today was not a good experience. Tried to call in our order so I could pick it up on my way home and got asked to hold, I'm ok with holding but when I have been on hold for 15 minutes I feel like you either don't want to take my order or my business isn't good enough. Giving them the benefit of the doubt I still went there, placed my order 3 fried chicken salads and a chicken salad sandwich. Let me add they had 15 people waiting on their food when I got there and ordered. Anyways for 3 salads and a sandwich it took a little over 30 minutes to get our order. They definitely need a couple more people there to work because the 2 people working obviously couldn't handle that many people. Hopefully they can get better because they used to be...

You have to go when the tall, thin lady is cooking, she's good. But the tall, young guy that cooks is the worst. He lets your burger get cold, forgets toppings, does not grill the bun like other cook. Burns the onion rings until black and then serves you them instead of throwing in trash. Wait times are way to long, The person that answers the phone does not pay attention, you have to repeat your order 3 times, gets your name wrong, talks to fast on phone....like she has beef jerky in her mouth. Cheese sticks are always cold.Burnt hamburger patties. This place is run buy a bunch of 8th graders. Just ignorant. We are making formal complaints against this little shack, dive place. It needs to be bulldozed....
