Prior to going to Olivers for my first time, I heard that they aren’t that good. However, I had a great experience. There’s a sign at the front door saying that this isn’t a fast food restaurant and that everything is made fresh. That sure is true. The food can take a while to be made, but everything is made in house. I went with a family member and they got the cheeseburger and you can tell that the burger was made fresh from ground beef and that the hamburger bun was made in house. The burger is huge! They said the burger was amazing. I may have to try their one pounder burger. They also said that the house cut french fries are especially good. I tried some of and indeed they were very good. I ordered the house club sandwich with onion rings. I was very impressed with the sandwich having lots of meat, the bacon and turkey. It was very filling and the onion rings were OK. They may have sat a little bit and weren’t very warm but they still tasted good. For my little man, we got him the French toast and sausage. I don’t think it was worth it for the price, but he enjoyed it and ate it all, so that’s what it matters the most. If you’re looking for a restaurant that makes everything in house and you’re not in a rush, or just want to spend time with who you’re dining with and chat. Oliver’s is the right place for you to eat at. I recommend Oliver’s restaurant.

I was highly disappointed with the food quality. I won’t be back! The only thing I could say is the Waitress named Stormy was kind and polite. To start we ordered a breakfast sandwich (see photo) that was dry and small for the price. I did like the hash browns and bacon. Those were the best parts of everything in the photos. I don’t recommend the pancakes, they were dry and tasteless, not impressed. Overall not a good value for the money! To say the least I wasn’t impressed and the only reason we came here was that “Jumbos” was closed for the day, that was our first choice, something about the grease trap was being serviced and “Abracadabras” was closed due to working on the roof, that was our second choice. It was our third choice that’s how we ended up there. We were desperate. We tried it a couple of years ago and since it was our last resort we decided to try it again, and that was our mistake.

The service was excellent. Our server offered suggestions, and we took them. The cheeseburger was the best burger that I have had, in quite some time. The meat was juicy, perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. Served with batteries fries... We also had the French dip sandwich, with onion rings. My husband stated that it was "really good". That means he loved it. Upon arrival, the place looks a little aged and could use a bit of a face lift. This restaurant used to be a Sambo's (oh how my memories wander back to my childhood, mentioning that) and then Oliver's has been there for 37 yrs. One side of the restaurant is sit down (white table clothes) and the other side is booths and counter seating. This place was Recommended by a few locals. Whatever they are doing...keep it up! I highly recommend Oliver's!

I ordered the liver and grilled onions with a baked 🥔 and green beans with a beer.🍺. My liver and onions was a little dry but still good, the grilled onions were the best. They need to add more so if you order this dish, ask for extra grilled onions.I know not ev1 likes liver, but sometimes I get a hankering for it (especially if my iron level is low)about every 6 months.😂The green beans were fresh and I ate the whole baked potato 🥔 skin and all! They only have Budweiser and Bud Light in a bottle.🍺 Not my favorite place but I would still say you should try it for yourself. I am just visiting from Florida and trying local eateries. Seemed like locals frequent this establishment. Friendly people. 🙃
