Maid-rite - Rolla

We got there 1 minute before opening. We had to wait 15 minutes after opening time before they were actually open. The morning crew was doing what the closing manager should have ensured was done. They spent this time wiping down tables, stocking items, etc. The floor had not been swept, and if it was than it wasn?t well. There was still the previous days food on the the floor around booths. The restrooms were also neglected from the night shift manager, this picture of the restroom trash was taken 20 minutes after opening. If the night crew can?t clean basic areas than what does the kitchen look like ?? We still ate here because my wife was praising this place all over the previous day. Well her memories were dashed and I for one will choose another place before this one. Overall, this specific Maid-Rite needs to replace the night manager and give the whole building a deep clean to include the window ledges inside. Recommend? Not until these things happen.

Definitely the place to be. Stopped here for lunch today and I must say I have never had a better burger . Everything was fresh. The ice cream was probably the best cone I have had in a long time. Will definitely be returning to try more.

I grew up in Rolla but moved away about 10 years ago. But still, every time I come back, I need two things: Maid-Rite and A Slice of Pie. A Maid-Rite (or Cheese-Rite, like I prefer) is a very basic concept: a ground meat sandwich, like a sloppy joe without the tomato sauce. It?s so tasty and unique. They also have very good ice cream (concretes, in particular) that I recommend.

Unfortunately, our order was not made right and according to them it was our fault. We don't let customers go unhappy in Texas, but we were strangers in a foreign country trying to promote small local businesses so that different customs must apply. Nice to be home again.

The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and my favorite was the chocolate peanut butter shake.
