Reviews
We stopped into The Knightstown Restaurant for a Sunday family meal, and it was everything you’d hope for in a small-town gem! The cozy atmosphere gives “home-cooked comfort” vibes, prices are refreshingly down-to-earth, and the food? Full of flavor and heart.
The service was spot-on — friendly, attentive, and genuinely kind (you can tell they care). And bonus points for their punch card system — earn a free appetizer just for coming back? Yes, please!
All in all, a hidden treasure in Knightstown that hits all the right notes: good food, good folks, and good hometown charm. We’ll definitely be back!
Everyone was friendly. The owners kids where in and out and it was just super wholesome I dig it.
The soup of the day was Chicken tortilla and it was really good. I would come in on a cold day just for that.
I had the country fried steak with corn and mashed potatoes. The who thing was top notch. Menueblioks good prices are reasonable. I will be going back.
Dessert we had a brownie that tastes like it came out of some ones grandmas kitchen and a blueberry muffin. The muffins smell brought me right back to childhood.
They also have an interesting drink menu. We got the cinnamon toast crunch and it did not disappoint.
We will be back in a week for karaoke.

My tooth my valentine here at this lovely restaurant for dinner. We had the ribeye and the tuna on rice was a great meal. We have great service. It was slow pace calm and quiet. Great for conversation overall great restaurant.
Absolutely would return.
The main reason I probably won’t go back is the smell. They have multiple plug in spray fragrance things around the restaurant and bathroom. As we were sitting at our table, every few minutes, I would TASTE the fragrance spray. I smelled it over my food that I was holding. I couldn’t even enter the bathroom…. and it gave my kids a headache. I asked the server if we could remove the one nearest to us, as we were all getting headaches from it. She very kindly obliged. When I was checking out, another server went and plugged it back in. I mentioned to the other server that the place doesn’t smell bad and the food smells fine so the plug ins really aren’t needed and are a negative for the place. The first server told the other server she’d received multiple complaints about the plug ins and the overwhelming smell in the small restaurant. The other server, who is older and seemed more in charge, said that the old owner liked them. I said they definitely don’t need them now and they’ve really done a nice job with the interior. She said they’d hide the plug ins so we can’t see them. I was a little surprised honestly… I told her I SMELLED them before I looked for them. She didn’t respond so I took that as this will be my last time in this restaurant lol. Multiple complaints on the smell should mean something…
Other items I was going to overlook for growing pains—
Our server…. was so young and cute. She will be great when she learns how to be a server. We let her know our table was very wobbly and just ask for sugar packets or a napkin to quick fix it. She said it happens as they move the tables around and didn’t bring anything for the table. Lol. We had to be very careful in leaning on the table so it didn’t spill our drinks.
Pre-bussing, refills, coming back… are items that can only be learned with serving experience. We still tipped her well.
The food… was mostly disappointing unfortunately.
Good— the loaded tots are great!! Love the favor of the queso!!
House salad dressing! Tasty.
Bad— the burgers… were disappointing. The buns, and the items added are all great!! Egg, fresh vegetables, sauces… all good. The burger itself was TINY!! That delicious bun is much too big for that fast food sized burger. It definitely was not a $10.99 level burger.
I had the Loaded Burger– which minus the tiny, mostly tasteless burger, was an egg sandwich on a delicious bun. The fries are basic and boring. I didn’t finish the burger or the fries. The salad was good. I like the spinach mix and house vinegarette.
My husband had the Knightstown burger. He liked the spicy mayo sauce…otherwise when I asked him his thoughts, he said “it was ok”. His burger looked a bit larger than mine and our kids… He did like the fries. He wasn’t happy with the scantily clad salad. (But all they offered on the salad was onion and we asked that taken off).
Overall– I would have gone back multiple times looking for something to update positively… as my followers know, I love finding local gems wherever we travel to highlight.
This place though…. unless they remove the old granny perfume smell from the restaurant, I literally cannot return…and wouldn’t considering they are actively ignoring multiple mentions of the smell being bothersome.
Restaurant is easy to get to and only 5 minutes from I-70. Straight down 109, no lights or stop signs, into Knightstown. Super good Food!
Tenderloin deluxe, and Thigh and Mighty chicken sandwich were the bomb!
