I grew up about 10 miles from The Anthony Wayne and it was a regular Saturday lunch stop with my father. Great to get back. They painted the building, which I wish they hadn't. It used to be a nice woodsy deep brown. Other than that it hasn't changed much in 30 years. My burger tasted exactly as I remembered it.
The Anthony Wayne charcoal broils everything over a real fire. Therein lies the difference. My favorites are the steak sandwich, the burger topped with raw onion and red relish and the mixed grill - a cheeseburger topped with smoked ham. Good charcoal broiled hotdogs, too.
The dining rooms are large, spread out, and early American. In warm weather there are tables outside among the gardens.
