Muddy Waters Café — Restaurant in Town of Palmyra

Rude staff (the old lady). The young one at the register was nice even though she didn’t told me about the “included-optional” ingredients (I’ll come to that). I asked for a sandwich called “navi”. It was a ham, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and mayo sandwich. I waited a good 20 minutes (no sorry about the wait for me like she told everyone else) and noticed that the lettuce and the tomatoes were missing when she dropped it on my table. I politely asked her why my sandwich did not come with the lettuce and the tomatoes and the old lady responded to me that I was supposed to “ask for them”. Ask for ingredients that were supposed to be in the sandwich in the first place. It does make sense, right? I dropped the sandwich at the counter like she told me to so she could add the missing ingredients and she rushed back to my table after 2 minutes and almost threw the whole thing on my table like I was a dog or something. I took a picture of how half of my sandwich looked like when she put it on my table. Really? Do another job if you can’t handle rush hour. Service jobs are not for you. You don’t even deserve one star. Nasty people don’t. I don’t care whether you had a bad day or not. You should never take your misery on your customers. Or maybe that was due to my French accent and my afro hair. I guess...

I rarely give bad reviews, but I have to for this place...

The lady at the counter was sweet and the food was actually decent but as we were eating we noticed two small cockroaches crawling out of the air vent above the water table. We also saw them crawling out of the trash can that was under the water table. My wife couldn’t eat one more bite and I didn’t want to cause a scene so I just paid and we left. I noticed they are under renovation so maybe that’s why the restaurant is in disrepair but that’s no excuse. The kitchen looked cluttered which made me think there’s no way proper food safety is being followed. I know that most restaurants deal with pests and rodents to some degree but it didn’t seem normal.

When I got to the car I searched the health inspection site and found that supposedly Muddy Waters Cafe hasn’t been inspected since 2015 and that there were MANY infractions regarding cleanliness and improper food safety precautions. That made us even more sick to our stomach. I know there are so many reviews from people who came based on recommendations from locals but health inspections don’t lie.

I really wanted to like this place but you can’t look past some things. They have a lot of work to do to make the place acceptable as far as...

I stop in for lunch. The lady there was sweet at 1st. Then I felt like I was rush to order something. I am one of those people that needs time to figure out what I want. After I order a sandwich. I noticed that she put her hands inside of bag of chips. I am one of those people don't touch my food with your bare hands. Gross. The bread was little hard to chew. I got 1 piece of bacon on my sandwich and was not cooked through. The drink that I got was too small for the price. And I pay more for the ice. So I got some water go with my food. She comes over ask if I was done. I said yes. I want to grab my drink of water. She took it with her. Then as I was leaving a gentleman came in. She said she closed at 2pm. It was 2:30pm. I got there at 2pm. She kept being rude to him. That's not how you treat your customers. For the price I pay for the food, the sandwich should been little bigger. She over...
