Location: 213 W 2nd St in Madrid, Boone County in Central Iowa.
Directions: 2nd St is the old business district just off the main drag through town.
The Tenderloin: This was a big oval of pork meat between a bun. The cut of pork loin was thin with just a minimum of juiciness. The breading had some good crunch, but this didn't take away from parts being just too thin. Served with your choice of fixings on an untoasted bun. Overall 7.1 out of ten.
Price: $4.50 for lunch with a side of ruffled potato chips.
Also on the menu: The menu is simple, with basic sandwiches for lunch and breakfast in the mornings. The Saturday special is homemade Biscuits & Gravy, other daily specials are available for lunch. The place had run out of pies when I stopped in at about 1:30 in the afternoon.
Service: There were four old ladies running the show and they seemed to recognize every person in the room by name.
Ambiance: There is an old counter and some booths for seating. This is a no frills place with pictures of the High Trestle bridge and drawings of Gingerbread Men on the walls.
