Ignore the racist non-sense that people post. That is getting old.However Friday night all you can eat fish. 5:15 pm they were out of fish.People came and couldn't order the fish They now have an automatic 3% service fee added to your bill even when paying with cash.I know its getting tough for family restaurants but their modern technology wireless handhelds that guilt's you into tipping right away when they process your payment just feels wrong, the no choice service fee feels wrong.And once these thing are in place they never change back.You use to walk up to cashiers,maybe a bowl of candy awaited you to take a complimentary piece, and you chatted for a moment with the cashier who asked if everything was satisfactory.You gladly tipped without the guilt trip Things are becoming more and more impersonal. Personal non electronic service was one of the reasons people want to dine at a small family diner.Their food is good reasonably priced. However Restaurant point of sale customer billing systems marketed to restaurant owners have no idea what simple personal service feels like. I don't know how much these systems save restaurants but it has made me stop wanting to come back.I can get this type of impersonal service at McDonalds. I think we will start...
Read moreAte here for the first time in years on a Friday around 11AM. Fa-Ray's has always been a wonderful restaurant and they seem to have only gotten better. The food is even better than I remember and still at a reasonable price.

Our entire meal with drinks was $33. The only issue we had was after we had paid the waitress forgot to give us our paid receipt which wasn't a huge deal. We just sat and finished our coffee and when the receipt didn't come 5 minutes after we paid we just checked the bank account to make sure it cleared then left. That aside I would highly...
Read moreTonite was not a good dining experience, we seated ourselves , to a booth that still needed to be cleaned. We were not greeted, or acknowledged. 3 employees walked right by us several times, in the mean time 3 other tables had seated themselves. I stopped one of the servers who had taken an order with one of the other tables, and said hun we were here before them , she replied " I didn't see you". She brought us our water, i commented we would like the fish dinner, she then replied ,it will be a minute. She went to yet another table after us. It was 20 min already. Our sever Jessica, took our order, at this particular time there 6 tables, 20 min later, I asked how much longer, due to the fact other tables after us had already been served.. Upon delivery of our food we requested malt vinegar, well my fish got cold waiting on that. Jessica never checked on us until a box was needed . I personally prefer not to have her as our server , if I...
