This is definitely a favorite for the locals, I cannot see why. When I arrived, everybody was very friendly and we were sat down quickly. That is where it ends as our food was awful! I asked for over medium eggs and got runny eggs, when she brought them back they were over hard. The hash browns were so salty I couldn't even eat them. I'm not joking, I'm a vegetarian and didn't want any meat with my meal and I could tell it was cooked with the bacon and ham as he obviously is not cleaning the grill. To top it off the person cooking the food has a very long beard without it being covered whatsoever and my mother mentioned to me that the bathrooms were dirty. When I asked if I could get my tax exempt and my military discount which is advertised she said she could only give me one at a time. I don't understand that as the tax exempt doesn't have anything to do with their business as far as giving me a military discount? Not a place I'd recommend, but again it's a city of Lawton favorite?
This is definitely meant to be a truck stop dining. From the old mildew smell to the old arcade/jukebox it definitely gives the Ora of a place to eat a quick bit and get back on the road. The service was nice but a bit old fashioned and let's say the personnel have been around Lawton streets. On the other side of the grille you had a cook smoking cigarettes but the food tasted good nonetheless. I had a pretty good breakfast so on that part I can't complain. I think overall it serves the truck stop purpose not a city restaurant scenery. Could use a makeover but I'd recommend the breakfast at your leisure.
I have loved eating at Leo & Ken's since I was just a kid. My Daddy would get me up before the crack of dawn so we could go fishing. Those were the times when it was just my Daddy and me. But before fishing, we always went to Leo and Ken's for breakfast. The food is still as great as it was way back then. And if you're as lucky as I am, you've got lots and lots of great memories inside those walls.
Great location for looks and feel and didn't take that long to get the food out even with most of the restaurant full, did have a minor mistake on a burger but it was still a 10/10 meal.
We have been to many truck stops all over the US. when my husband was a over the road driver. They were big and some small Mom and Pops. I usually like eating here, today, the link sausage was overcooked and grits had big lumps in it and was tasteless. I'm wondering when the floor got mopped last? Their Texas toast was very good. Tables seemed clean. Our waitress was very nice. I think the cook needed some cleaning on himself. I don't like putting places down so we will try again but not right away.
we visited in late Feb for a late breakfast. Place had just been packed and we were lucky in our timing as tables began to open up. 1. clue to look for is local cars in the parking lot and trust me, criteria #1 was clearly met. A dozen soldiers were dining together and the rest of the crowd seemed to be locals. Pork chops for breakfast was wonderful! Travel partner had steak and we both ended up bringing enough home for dinner. The lunch special on the board looked spectacular but not until 11am! With it being a weekday, the lunch crowd began to filter in as we were leaving. Side note - the cash register was old fashioned noise making number clicker, not a digital. These are the kinds of cafes/restaurants from my youth and I do so love finding these treasures on my travels.
Super Nice People Working There. The Food was tasty and satisfying. If I was going to take a star away and I won't, it would be the number of dropped trailers and local trucks parked there for the weekend. There are so many lots that I am sure would accommodate the local guys...Free it up for the wayfaring crowd, you think??Anyhow, it was a nice stop and I would stop there again in a heartbeat.
Had the 1lb American burger with fries for lunch yesterday. Loved every bite and almost had a food coma at work just down the road. 20/10 recommended and will have again. I'll definitely preorder before my lunch break tho
Chicken fried steak and gravy had good flavor. Salad consisted of less than a cup of brown-edged wilted lettuce only. Beans were bland. Chicken strips and fries were good.Had the best burger I've had in a while on 3/19/22. Reasonable price.
We were in town to buy some supplies and I asked where we could go to get a good home cooked breakfast and they suggested this place.They didn't disappoint. Good food and good service at a good price.
