| - After spending a lovely day at the World Wildlife Zoo, we were feeling hungry for dinner and headed over to Dillon's for some homestyle eats and bbq. It was a litle busy when we were here around 5 P.M., with a minor wait to get seated (5-10 minutes).
I ordered the burnt ends plate, with coleslaw and mac & cheese for sides. The meat was delicious. It was a good mix of tender and crisp, and the cajun bbq sauce I had it with meshed well with the flavor of the meat. The mac and cheese was nice and creamy, with pieces of corn kernels for added texture, and browned breadcrumbs on top. I wasn't a fan of the coleslaw. I could only taste raw cabbage and not much else in terms of flavor, but my husband really liked it because he said it had a light flavor that he found refreshing (Hey, to each their own!).
We were seated close to the shark tank, and it was cool seeing the sharks and fish swim around while we waited for our meals. The meals themselves didn't take too long to be served, and for the most part service was good. Towards the end of our meal, when it was time to get our check, service came to a halt and we waited a long time for our credit card to be processed so we could leave.
So, if you are at the zoo and are looking for a decent sit-down restaurant, this is a good option, especially since there doesn't seem to be a lot of places to eat at around this area. Due to the slow-down in service towards the busier part of the evening though, I might be hesitant to go here again if it's a busy time for the restaurant.
