“ Stellar breakfast on a random Friday am. When they say WAIT! At the hostess stand they mean it- they will be out to grab you as soon as they clean up other tables- most likely for you. It's open, there is a bar to your right as you enter and lots of seating to your right and front. Can eat at bar. We sat, mimosas and bloodies available. Or for that matter- whatever you can think of. They have scotch eggs swimming in a bowl of gravy... yes gravy... and it was delicious. Definitely a Mexican "flair" with lots of black beans, sauces, etc. I stuck with a Belt sandwich - nice and crispy bread with bacon, egg, lettuce, tomato. Friendly service and lots of value! Glad we found this spot since we are headed to Ohio a few times a year. ”
“ Great food. Clean and quick. I had the French Onion soup and my husband had the Walleye. ”
“ Reasonable breakfast, and service with a smile! May be hard to find if the main road is closed,but just follow the farmers, they will get you there, plus senior citizens, it's their favorite place! ”
“ This place is a local favorite. We eat there because the food is always very good, the portions are generous and the prices are reasonable. It is very clean, but the decor is pretty bland. They are always busy so service can be a bit slow. Don't go if you are in a hurry. ”
“ Excellent service! Food tastes good! Ambiance is fantastic. The huevos rancheros is very flavorful. You can make your own avocado toast! They also have a spicy avocado toast which was good ”
“ I should probably avoid anything named "splitter" in the future. It was a bit concerning when we walked in and found a long corridor with long benches for waiting. The wait was only 20 minutes for a table. But that is only one of the waiting games that happen at dinner time. We waited to order. We waited to get our food. We waited to get our check. Waiting was the name of the game over the two hour dining experience. They did upgrade the onion rings as an apology, but when portion sizes are this large more food really doesn't have a great appeal. We tried to be patient. Definitely a promising location, but was a busy Friday night. ”
“ Just passing through... Really the place is Awesome. We were traveling over the holidays and came across the Dark Horse. It was a little off the beaten path and the building is not fancy but the food and service were outstanding. I had the mushroom burger with onion rings which was worth ordering again. Baby girl had the bacon cheeseburger with fries and she loved it - the burgers are thick and prepared well - Wifie had the club sandwich with a side salad. The club sandwich was really good but the side salad was great - their blue cheese dressing is fantastic... The Dark Horse is worth stopping by for a meal when in the Finley area. ”
“ We've been going here for years and LOVE it; so glad to get back for some amazing breakfast. Also love the place since the renovations? Looks great inside!!! My hubs had and really enjoyed the chicken fried steak. I had corned beef hash, which I suspect is just the canned kind, but served up beside their homemade biscuits and perfectly scrambled eggs made it the exact thing I needed to kick start my morning. ”
