Boomarang Diner - Bartlesville — Restaurant in Bartlesville

Okay, I've been going to boomerang diner when I lived in Stillwater at their location there when I went to Oklahoma State University and that we always went there because it was cheaper and we were college students and we would go on catfish I believe it was catfish thursdays. I've now move to Bartlesville passed by the boomerangs in was so excited that there was another one so I took my family which is my two young daughters and my husband and we all ate for under $30 and I even got a shake on top of that. The service was amazing our waitress was great but another waitress came over and gave me the biggest compliment I think I've ever gotten and that literally made my day and will make me come back over and over again. The employees in the service there is like nowhere else along with the prices! Plus, I forgot to say, the food is amazing like all of it is just great you can get breakfast at any time of day or you can get dinner or lunch and they will make whatever you want if you need something special or don't want something on your sandwich, etc. Go there now it's a huge recommendation from not just me but all my college buddies, my children, and...

The food is average diner fare. It's good but nothing special. The service however is incredible. I was greeted as soon as I walked in the door, had someone take my order before I even got to the register, was checked on multiple times as I waited, and they even remembered my name to say bye as I walked out the door. The entire time I was there the staff never stopped moving from taking orders to cleaning to delivering orders and checking on customers. This is by far one of the best run restaurants I have ever seen.

Edit - After eating at this restaurant a second time I'm back to drop a star because the food needs some definite improvement. I ordered the fish sandwich and while there was a nice big (and I mean HUGE) piece of fish on the sandwich it tasted like nothing. The lettuce was placed directly under the fish which made it get hot and soggy when there was a perfectly good tomato slice that could have protected it. The tartar sauce needs some lemon. For an almost $7 sandwich with no sides I was not impressed. Also the shakes taste like chemicals...

We are a family of 5 and went in the evening, so maybe that's where my review seems to contradict others. The first wait person that came to us took our drink order, brought half of it to our table, then was never seen again. The second seemed amazed and frustrated that we weren't taken care of. She seemed amazed again when she found out we were brought our appetizer by another wait person, but not offered any ranch or plates for the app. I got coffee in the evening, but waited over 10 minutes and had to flag someone down to get a refill. When I received my food, the gravy on top was cold. Everyone else in my family seemed quite pleased with their food, however. It is worth noting that the wait staff, while extremely friendly and accommodating, really did not seem to have their act together. We understand that they are new and bad waitstaff syndrome is something that plagues a good bit of Bartlesville. We'll go back in another 6 or so months and hopefully they have sorted out the staffing kinks. I'll make sure to update my review if the...
