Reviews Summary
Dysart's Restaurant Broadway is celebrated for its generous portions, lightning-fast service, and true comfort food, making it a beloved local institution. While many rave about the delicious meals and friendly staff, some reviews point to inconsistencies in breakfast preparation and less-than-ideal dining experiences with certain dishes.
"Dysart's is one of those spots that I will always go back to! It's been around for so long for a reason. It's a great stopping point. The service is lightning fast, portions are huge and great value for money. Their baked goods are so tasty, true comfort food. Highly recommended."

"This was the finest dining experience of my entire life and has shaped what I expect all future dining experiences to be! My very hungry son DEMANDED French Fries, well he is just starting to talk so he said “ah” but my server Bethany knew exactly what that meant! She rushed off to make sure that it was taken care of immediately! Very attentive to my needs as well as my sons. She was always right there whenever I needed anything and didn’t mind at all that my son made a mess. Oh! She brought my beverage out as a EXTREMELY swift pace!
Anyway, back to the story. She was the most excellent server to ever take my order and trust me! I’m hard to please! But she nailed it and then some. I couldn’t recommend coming here more, just make sure to ask for Bethany!"
