The Penguin Drive-In

Penguin 1st Impression...Not So Good!. I was excited to try The Penguin Drive-In with my 4 year old son yesterday, although after our visit I was totally dissatisfied with our food and service. My son had chicken tenders that had no type of seasoning what-so-ever, I'm surprised he even ate them. I ordered a hotdog and the chili and slaw were both bland as well. My money was definitely wasted. Honestly, I expected something totally different especially from what I've heard and of course the reputation from the Food Network show. Our server was not in tune with us at all. Maybe we just visited on an off day, however there is no such thing when running a restuarant. After discussin our visit with others, I learned The Diamond is the place to go! They'll be next on our list.…

Not worth the price and RUDE TAKEOUT service. Warning for take-out! You do not get a drink at all with the combo. Over 17 dollars for a grilled cheese and some salsa and a chicken sandwich with reg fries. No salt, no pepper and not Ketchup was available. The grilled cheese was unique but I only ordered the combo for a drink.

We won't be going back and if you do, pay extra for your drink.

Maybe a new owner can keep people happy. I'd have fought for these guys but don't take it out own your customers.

I could have made the food at home and had drinks that were better. For the amount of money at least give a person a small sip of water.…

new mgt.. The people who used to manage and run The Penguin no longer run it. In October they opened a new restaurant called The Diamond a block away from The Penguin, along with the former staff. They are a lot friendlier and they're the ones that were on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. Well worth it to go there- the "new" Penguin doesn't compare!…
