Good enough for fifteen dollar breakfast omelets or scrambles. Despite their low review average, I'm thinking they're still a worthwhile option here in Delhi. I politely asked about unionization one time and they said the wait-staff was willing to join and pay dues, but it was the kitchen crew who were recalcitrant. A shame of course, because thinking back to Labor Day past, growin' up down by Cranapple Creek, etc. 

Business response:

Hi, Harvey. We are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!

The service was quick and efficient Donna was pleasant and accurate. I've heard complaints regarding the food pricing. The burger is now thicker patties which is not bad a little more greasy then the big boy that this area is used to. The sandwich comes with fries which is a plus. The food is not bad depending on what you get. Anywhere you go pricing will be increased and for the size of the burger I think it is fair. The restaurant ambiance is peaceful and nicely put together.

Everything too expensive for what you get. I think people expect it to be like Frisches but it doesn't compare and shouldn't be expected to

Got cussed out by the dishwasher tonight, food took 40 minutes to come out and when it did it was cold and looked like it was sitting out for 30 minutes. Our server was a young blond girl, she was great and accommodating. The problem was definitely back of house.

This review is for those who are looking at potentially going despite the low reviews of Dolly's: First let's get to the good part. The food was decent and tasted well. I won't lie it was no Michelin star restaurant obviously but it was enjoyable. The onion rings were crispy and the 'signature' burger tasted just like our once familiar big boy. The fries were 'typical' restaurant fries. I very much enjoyed the fried pickles as they were fried delightfully. Now unfortunately for the bad. The service was definitely lacking ... read more

I went with some family members on a Friday and there weren't many people there so I thought we would have quicker service because another family member had an appointment to keep. That wasn't the case. The service was lackluster and sluggish. the order on my part was incorrect. Somehow all the potato products were over cooked in some parts, other parts on the same plate under cooked. All of the burger orders were dry and overcooked, mushrooms not cooked. I could see my order in particular, from where I was sitting, just si... read more

Took my son here today 05/22/25 for lunch. The service was good and our server was doing the best she could given the circumstances. The food was awful. The Signature Burger (Big Boy) was burnt and had WAY too much tartare sauce to where it was falling apart. Up charge for the waffle fries and onion rings which is fine if they are good. They were burnt, hard and dry. The new logo decals are already peeling off the walls and the place already looks rundown. No reason to ever go back. $32 for 2 burgers, 1 waffle fry, ... read more
