Sloppy Genes Cafe

"An Old maid Right style diner. Been around since the 40s at least. It's age is part of its appeal. Food Is always good, nothing fancy. Loose meat sandwiches fries. Basic breakfast, omelettes are the fanciest they get. Eating at the counter is a good way to engage in conversation with others.."

"We went there and got 2 maid rites and 1 fry and 2 drinks. It cost $26+ and when I gave the lady (rude ) my money she took it and never even tried to return the change. I was astounded by that. The prices are way out of line now. Also everything you order is individual so each order will cost you in the neighborhood of $15 dollars per person if you want 1 maid rite and a French fry with a drink. This use to be a place to go to and not even close to what it use to be."

"I went to this cozy diner Sloppy Gene’s for the first time today. I had their homemade bean soup and grilled cheese. Made with care and with delicious ingredients. I’ll be back."

"Went in for lunch to enjoy a loose meat sandwich ("Gene Rite") fit the first time in my life. It was great! Not greasy at all, it was perfectly seasoned with mustard, picked, and onions on it. My wife and SIL got fries with cheese sauce and chili, the fries were thin and crispy. Service was friendly and price was right. So good, I actually ordered another Gene Rite with bacon and cheese! Very happy we stopped by on the way from IA to through IL!"
