Dan's I-30 Diner — Restaurant in Benton

We were excited to eat here because several people told us it was good. But after our experience, we will not return. Service was slow with food and service. It took 45 minutes for a dan’s special burger and country breakfast which was eggs, sausage, and biscuits. The only fresh thing was the burger topping, biscuit, and eggs. The burger was not fresh; you could tell and taste it was a frozen patty. It was also dry. The sausage was frozen and was dry as well. Nothing was seasoned, and if you want fries with your burger, you have to pay an additional dollar for frozen fries. So, we resorted to a bag of chips that came with it. We were not impressed and disappointed, especially after we waited so long. $30 meal for two is overpriced for what we received. Also the only thing the kitchen was cooking for lunch was breakfast and burgers. Nothing else was...

This place is a dump. Filthy inside and out. Broken signs, fixtures, floors are filthy dirty, walls are dirty, building is in shambles. Waited an hour and 20 minutes for food that never showed up and decided to leave and not waste anymore time. Amanda the waitress must have passed by our table 10 times before I asked if our order was on its way. After 15 more minutes I got up and told the lady at the counter I couldn't wait any longer. My suggestion to the owners is: learn to respect new customers and clean up this hole or shut it down. Your restaurant is disgusting and shameful. It makes Waffle House look like a 5 star restaurant. Which probably would have been a better place for breakfast. BTW when you have customers getting up and grabbing their own silverware and serving their own coffee, maybe that's a sign of a way too relaxed...

My kids and I were driving from NY to TX and it was breakfast time so my kids searched on line for a place to eat and this restaurant had a high rating from other customers. When we pulled up it was very questionable. It didn't look inviting at all as well as the area but don't let that deceive you. I convinced my children to give it a try and we all enjoyed it. If it weren't for the good reviews we would've never decided to go there but I'm glad we did. So all you travellers out there don't be afraid to try this diner out. Our server was so attentive I appreciated her. I wish I remembered her name but she seemed very young. I didn't give it 5 stars because it took a while of contemplating. I didn't want to be disappointed but I would hope they put more attention on advertising their place so people like me won't miss the chance...
