Service was non- existent. At one point there was no staff in the restaurant- for several minutes. We were there during “happy hour” and had to ask about it. We had to ask for everything. Had the food not been so good, we would have left.
Glen PrairieResponded on May 14, 2025
Hi Lucy, Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear about the service you experienced—this is not the standard we aim for, and we understand how frustrating it must have been. We’re glad to hear the food made a positive impression, but we know that great food should be matched by great service. Your comments are being shared with our team so we can address these issues directly. We appreciate you giving us a try and hope to have the opportunity to provide a much better experience next time. Sincerely, Orasa S.

Interesting beer and wine selections and the food dishes all had a unique twist. The sauce for the firecracker shrimp was delicious and the macaroni and cheese was very good. The pork and short rib sliders were very flavorful. Our waiter Dusty was very attentive. We will be back.

As always, Glen Prairie did not disappoint. We love the great food, ambiance, and the service. Edna is simply lovely and so friendly and helpful. Tonight we had an early dinner- my husband and I shared the magnificent onion rings. I had the smash burger and it was so delicious. My husband had the cream of asparagus soup, and he said it was great. We will be back again!
