Reviews
"We're lucky to live so close to this family-friendly drive-in restaurant! Delicious, varied menu with something for everyone. We love the fish. It's battered and cooked to order. We're also fans of the slaw, which has been popular to diners since the 1950s. You can get a fish basket or sandwich. You can't go wrong. Fresh barbecue sandwiches are always available. On the weekends, Yesterday's offers delicious brisket and ribs fresh from the on-site smoker. The restaurant is exclusively carhop now. There was a small dining area prior to the pandemic. There are picnic tables available for warmer weather. You can always call in your order and carry-out. If you want lunch, my advice is to call ahead and pick it up. The restaurant is crazy busy around noon. My only negatives would be, as with many places, there is a lot of staff turnover. Be patient with the carhops. The food is with the wait. Also, the restaurant closes early evening, so keep an eye on the clock! If you're in Carmi, stop by and try something delicious."
"We decided to try here because they made us a very nice meal for the NWTF. Today my wife had the chicken strips basket. I am a avid pork bbq guy. For some reason at the last second I ordered the brisket and onion rings. Quite possibly the best brisket I ever ate. Color, texture, taste was exactly what brisket is supposed to be.. We will stop here again if we are ever back this way. You won't go wrong eating here."
"They do a very nice job on their catered lunch dinners, and I'm always so happy when I see them on the menu. The packaging is super clean, and I really appreciate how much care they put into their carryout service. Highly recommend!"
"Fast and friendly service. Good food and excellent prices. We love the old fashioned atmosphere. So much on the menu. I can't wait to go back and try something else."
