Mollie's Kountry Kitchen — Restaurant in Apple Valley

It’s the weekend, you’ve gotten up at the crack of 10 and you need some grilled goodness in your stomach quick, fast, and in a hurry. This is your SPOT.

There’s a line? Don’t worry, it cycles quick. Want to enjoy the weather? There’s a patio. Like your coffee strong and bottomless? They’ve got you covered.

Came in with a group of 3, seated in 5 minutes, drink orders taken within 2 minutes of that menu receipt. Good fruit juices, not fresh squeezed but not super artificial tasting either. Coffee was spectacular, and refilled often. Orders up: steak and eggs, chicken fried steak skillet, and eggs Benedict. Potato options were country potatoes or hash browns, second side default is biscuits and gravy; you CANNOT go wrong with getting them.

Food was out within ten minutes and the other reviews do not lie, these are LARGE servings sizes, with my hash browns taking up half my plate, the other half sustaining my two eggs over easy and actually good looking steak. You never know what kind of steak you’ll be getting at some spots, but they definitely do NOT skimp out on their beef selection here. I ordered medium rare and got medium rare, and the eggs were perfectly done over-easy. From the others in my party, the chicken fried steak skillet was good on the steak but a bit heavy on the potatoes, with the eggs benedict being a good choice overall. With drinks for each of us and our meals, total was about $60, not bad at all for the size of these dishes, some of which we had to take home to finish later.

Our server Amber was also incredibly nice and extremely professional when it came to handling a customer seated behind us who complained the entire time about the meal yet didn’t bring it up until the check came, even though she came by multiple times asking how everything was and refilling water/coffee. She set them straight about an issue they thought there was with the menu (there wasn’t), closed them out, and came by to check on us with a smile. Props to her for handling it so well.

Since we brought our pup, we took our food on the patio, which was bright and had a nice, cozy vibe to it. The whole place has a rustic, Americana vibe to it. Bathrooms were through a little maze behind the main dining areas inside, they were clean with adequate soap, paper towels, and air dryers.

Overall, a great spot to hit for brunch, definitely a recommend if you’re...

The Mollies Kountry Kitchen is one of the best restaurants that I can recommend to you to have breakfast, lunch, and dinner. What makes this restaurant so special for me is the welcoming environment of the staff; they are so attentive, they make you feel like you are home. Every time I go there, the staff helps me right away. If the waitress named Pat or Casey are the ones serving me, I know that the service will be the best. They know me so well. When I arrive, they come to the table to confirm if I want my usual, and once I confirm, they would get me my drink right away, and the food will be on the table some minutes later. They are definitely the best. The design of the restaurant is so cozy and old fashion looking. The restaurant on the outside has a red horse wagon cover with a white canvas tarp simulating the transportation of the old west. The inside rustic western decoration is appealing to the projection of the restaurant. It makes you feel like you are back in the time into the old west. The quality of the food is excellent and the portions are enormous. Usually, when I go to eat at this place, I go with a company, so we split the food. The food is delicious and the flavor is unique. Many times when I take the first bite I feel like I am tasting heaven. Every time I go to this place I love the music they play, there is nothing more pleasant than having great food with family or friends while listening to some music of the Eagles, Beatles or Air Supply in the background just to mention some. The prices are pretty reasonable and affordable that you can eat at this place any time you want. The location is just wonderful, even when the restaurant is at its fullest, you won’t have a problem finding parking. The restaurant is always clean. According to my favorite waitress Pat. she said that working as a waitress in Mollies Kountry Kitchen has been an amazing experience for her. Pat has worked in this restaurant for 16 years and she said, she loves it. She also mentioned that coffee, orange juice, and iced teas are the clients' favorite drinks, while the salads, chicken fried steak skillet, and waffles are the most popular dishes among the eaters. She also mentioned that Sunday mornings are the busiest time of the week because family and friends gather together to have...

This is the 2nd bad experience I have had. A few weeks ago I went there with my family and our food was cold when we got it. I let this instance go as benefit of the doubt but today solidified that I will not be returning.

Today, our waitress, Adrianna, was all over the place, I would have understood if there was a Mother’s Day Rush, there was not, there were multiple tables available and multiple waiters. She kind of seemed to forget she had tables where we were sitting. Eventually (20 mins after sitting down) we placed our order and then another 20 minutes later our waitress came back to “verify our order” (now 40 minutes after sitting at our table, during this time, coming to check on us once)— She verified the first part of our order then walked away without saying anything else. I asked another waitress walking by to please go get our waitress to try to understand what was going on. Our waitress came back and I told her I was confused due to the described interaction and she apologized and stated she was in a lot of trouble and that the previous people at our table got up and walked out. She also explained that she didn’t write down what meal we got. Common sense tells me that since the order wasn’t written down it also wasn’t placed into the orders for the kitchen. If the previous people received the same service, I understand why they walked out. I told her we were on the verge of doing the same, then a manager came to our table with our order a few minutes later. Took one bite.. and our food was cold. Our first waitress never returned to our table nor apologized for the horrible service and mistake that she made.

I give props to the manager that was there this morning as she did not charge us for the plate that wasn’t placed — this is the ONLY reason this rating is 2 stars.

The entire situation felt like a tornado and could have been drastically different had there been some type of communication.
