Silver Dollar Restaurant

While traveling around on our motorcycles we wanted to find a new place to eat. Gave this place a shot! It was good, but not someplace that we would put in our rotation!

I work in the area and have been here many times since they opened. During the first year, the food was above average for a local greasy spoon with daily (apparently) homemade soups. In the last year or so the place has dropped drastically. The food appears to be of a much lesser quality and most of the soups taste like they're either right out of a can or they're so thick that they're inedible. I jokingly call them "cream of cornstarch". The clam chowder is mostly flour and smells like sewage.

I'm from Elwood and was thrilled to see a family restaurant open in town. I've been here a few times now with my parents who still live in Elwood.  The food and service have been excellent each time.  I've only had breakfast here once but the pancakes were better than I've had anywhere else. I hope they continue to do good business!
