Curt's Family Restaurant

"Awesome home cooked meals, huge rolls, many different pies and deserts and very reasonably priced. Nice sized portions so if you leave hungry there's something wrong... It's clean and well kept inside nice people and worth the visit."

"Curt's is the small town local comfort food restaurant that big chain restaurants fail to copy. The atmosphere is that of a family reunion and the food is amazing. Our server, Kami, was spectacular. She was friendly, attentive, and always on the move. None of her tables lacked for anything at any time. The rolls were the size of a loaf of bread and as soft as if they had just been pulled from the oven. If you're in Markleysburg, stop in. If you're on your way to somewhere else and pass by, stop in. If you need a good excuse for a pleasant drive with home cooking, stop in. For me, Curt's puts Markleysburg on the map!"

"Our recent experience at Curts Family Restaurant in Markleysburg, PA left us utterly dismayed and deeply dissatisfied. The combination of lackluster food, disrespectful service, and a series of baffling inconsistencies made for an evening that was far from enjoyable. Food Quality and Taste: The food was shockingly bland and unimpressive, falling far short of any expectations. Every dish tasted mediocre and lacked any remarkable flavors. To our disappointment, even the attempt to be environmentally conscious fell flat at Curts Family Restaurant. The paper straws provided were ineffective, quickly deteriorating and becoming unusable. The rolls used to be brought out to the table with every meal but now you have to request them, and then the rolls were brought out cold. Still tasty but most restaurants serve hot bread... Waitstaff Behavior: The waitress named Berta displayed an astonishingly rude and unwelcoming attitude. Instead of providing courteous service, she seemed to go out of her way to make us uncomfortable. Inconsistent Seating Policy: We were informed that our two-year-old children couldn't sit on our laps, and chairs couldn't be placed at the end of the table. This rule, however, was selectively enforced, as another couple with children were allowed to disregard it, causing chaos. Despite our group being reprimanded for minor child-related issues, another couple's child was allowed to run amok without any consequences or intervention from the staff. Frozen Salad Bar and Indifferent Response: The salad bar was stocked with frozen items, demonstrating a clear disregard for quality and freshness. When we informed the waitress, she dismissively responded with a mere "yep," showing complete apathy. Lack of Coordination, Rudeness and Unprofessional Communication: When inquiring about our to-go order, a different waitress responded rudely, claiming she wasn't responsible for our table. Her dismissive behavior added to the already frustrating experience. And then instead of approaching us directly, Berta yelled across the room to announce our order was placed. This lack of professionalism further compounded the unpleasant experience. Incorrect Billing and Argumentative Attitude: One person in our group was charged the price of an adult meal, despite ordering a children's portion. When we brought this up with Berta, she engaged in an argument and refused to adjust the price, using a flimsy excuse about the size of the portion. For background they were out of Pasta sauce but the child who ordered it (was clearly a child) didn’t want the pasta sauce anyway, so we proceeded to order the pasta plain. Which was honestly about .45cents worth of pasta. So even after that they still charged the price as if it was an adult meal. Deceptive Tip Handling: In light of receiving abysmal service, we chose not to leave a tip due to the overall poor experience. To our shock, Berta apparently took it upon herself to add a tip to our bill without our consent, and the bank confirmed the unauthorized charge. When confronted about it about it the waitress printed off another receipt showing the initial charge. It wasn’t until about 2 hours later the bank showed the corrected amount. This was very clearly a disgruntled employee taking it upon herself to commit fraud despite her shortcomings as a waitress. Throughout our visit, there was no sign of management presence or willingness to address the numerous issues we faced. This lack of accountability speaks volumes about the establishment's disregard for customer satisfaction. In summary, our visit to this restaurant was an absolute disaster. From the tasteless food and inconsistent policies to the rude staff and deceitful practices, it was an evening of disappointment and frustration. We strongly advise anyone considering dining here to look elsewhere for a more enjoyable experience. Berta you get NO STARS. Curt’s family Restaurant you get 1 star but only because your rolls are decent. Don’t go here pick somewhere else."

"My wife and I stopped by the restaurant for lunch while on a road trip through Pennsylvania. We had a great lunch with very good food, large portion sizes, modest prices and friendly service. I had the steak salad ($13.00) and my wife had the lunch special ($8.25) which included a large bowl of bean & ham soup and a grilled ham & cheese sandwich."

"Have been coming here for my entire life. Every meal I’ve had here has been good. Servers are always attentive and kind. The atmosphere is that of a family owned establishment. They serve homemade rolls with dinners, one of my favorite parts of coming to Curt’s! Whether you’re looking for a home cooked meal, a quick meal while traveling on 40, or just an affordable meal, Curt’s is the best choice. They also have great baked goods! Their salads are a perfect portion size, I always get one as a side. Would recommend eating at Curt’s to anyone looking for a restaurant in the mountains!"
