Best KPortal Reviews

Good old bar side/family side type restaurant that I grew up with. The hand breaded tenderloin is amazing. It is as large as you think. The breading let the natural taste of the tenderloin come through. That's a hard balancing act. You can order it anyway you want. Fries were great. They did not have bottles of mustard but they will get you small cup full if you ask. Service was awesome. Kept our glasses fun and checked on us when we needed it. This place is on the tenderloin trail so check it off your list if you visit.
We drove south to watch the eclipse and stopped in Elwood for tenderloins at the Tin Plate. My husband had the sandwich and fries and I had the tenderloin Manhattan with country gravy. They were perfect! The tenderloins were juicy with the right amount of seasoning. No additional salt & pepper were needed. The owner came outside to make sure everyone had eclipse glasses, super nice guy! The photos don't do the food justice, absolutely delicious. Wonderful hospitality in Elwood, especially at the Tin Plate!
I got mine to go so I can’t say anything about the service inside or the atmosphere. Looks like a nice bar to eat at or they have dining for family. Nice outdoor seating area. I love their breaded pork tenderloin. It is delicious. The breading is homemade. The pickles are really good! They toast the bun. The tenderloin was cooked to perfection. Not to thick not to thin. It is 10 oz and around 1/2 thick or a little more some days. It can make two sandwiches. The service for to go was very good. Every time they read my order back to me. They will also cut your tenderloin and make two sandwiches for you. Some places sale the bun and extra condiments and you do it yourself. It is one of the top ones in the state if I say so myself.
Pretty good food, service was good and the price wasn’t bad! The menu selection was large and the food was cooked in a timely manner. Definitely eat here again!
This was my first time eating here, and everything was excellent! Our party of 5 all ordered different foods, and we were all sampling each other's choices. We also had an excellent server, I didn't get her name, but she was awesome!
Working on homes in town,
I got a little tingle in my belly,
I googled food to see what's around
something other than peanut butter and jelly,
The Tin Plate popped up,
I decided to give it a try
just an urge, I reckon,
I can't tell you why,
So I ordered the tenderloin,
The waitress asked "do you want a extra bun"?
I looked at her with excitement as I answered
"how big IS it hun"?
She showed me a couple sitting close by
as a lady carried fries,
then on a cart, a tenderloin came,
i have to tell ya, my life, never the same.
You must stop in, give it a try,
there's so much loin, it'll make you cry.
I'll be back.
Best tenderloin I have ever had! I am through the area twice per year, typically, and I never miss an opportunity to get one of their MASSIVE tenderloin sandwiches. The last time I was there, a coworker and I ate in, and the waitress was fantastic too. Bonus: the price is very reasonable as well.
Was in town for a golf tournament in Yorktown and stayed at The Plum House. Went here after the round and we really enjoyed the food! Samantha was our server and she made sure that my son always had plenty of lemonade.
Burger was really good as were the wings and fries. Best of all was the onion rings. They were cooked to perfection. Not over cooked, not undercooked, but perfectly cooked.
If we're ever in the area again we will definitely go back to The Tin Plate.
