Maid Rite Review

So Russ and I were shopping the other day...just looking for laptops and checking out new stores when we found this nice cute little diner in the pavillion that just opened up.

It's called Maid Rite and it's made to look like a 1950's style diner. But I have to say that's where the fun stopped.


The menu was so vague everything had to be questioned, what was in it, what was on the sandwiches and how they were made. Because let's face it with my diet I have to be particular about not only what I eat, but how it's made.







I settled on a side salad with low fat triple berry vinagrette and a carb right cup. Russ got a pulled pork sandwich and fries.

Now the prices we thought were just fabulous until our food came out. His sandwich was like snack size and he had literaly 20 fries. (Yes, he counted them.) My salad as you can see is a spring salad. I am not a salad snob by any means, but I would like a little better salad than the weeds that they've picked out of the garden. Romaine, iceburg...spring salad should be mixed in with these...not served alone. I didn't finish my salad because I could stomach the taste of the spring mix anymore.






Here's Russ waiting for our food...I will give them this for as many people that had just ordered before us and the amount of people working...they were super fast!!!
















The carb rite cup is there sandwich meat (which by the way is just seasoned ground beef) in a cup with some shredded cheese, and mustard and ketchup squirted on top. You can add onions and pickles...again the portions are really small so with the salad and the carb rite cup I wasn't full and neither was Russ. Plus, we both paid on average anout $6+ for each meal. That really to me...isn't worth it.




I think this diner may be here for awhile, but unless they lower their prices, or up their portions I don't think this eatery will be in business for very long.
