We were so impressed, I couldn't wait to write a review. I eat out a LOT here in San Diego and seldom feel this way about a restaurant experience, let alone one in my hometown of Kenyon MN, if that says anything.
I had a veggie omelet with white toast and my mans had the biscuits and gravy. We both ordered an additional side of bacon, glad we did because it was perfectly cooked and delicious. The portions are quite large and fair for the price of the food, so be prepared to ask for a box! The omelet was awesome, real cheese, onions and peppers were sauteed, Miyazaki-movie toast slices all puffy and perfectly golden with plenty of real butter, overall fantastic. My favorite part of the omelet was the fact they don't cut the eggs with pancake batter or anything...however, I tried a bite of the hubs' beef gravy and instanly regretted not copying his order. Capital D *Delicious,* gushed about it to our server Sarah who explained it's the owner's own recipe and is made fresh every morning. Awesome!
The service was much better than the first time I visited Angie's around the time of it's opening. Sarah is so sweet and everyone was very accomodating to us. I really enjoy the pay-first model, choosing our own seating, and relaxed atmosphere. It's quite cafe like with a 'third space' sort of vibe that could be something pretty awesome as the restaurant grows.
I enjoyed the jerseys and other vintage Kenyon paraphernalia on the walls. It really feels like the owner wanted to honor her roots here in Kenyon and not only start a restaurant, but give people living here a welcoming place to have a sit and build community. The space itself is going through some growing pains in its first years but I really like the cafe-like, hometown vibe. As someone who enjoys tabletop gaming, the space in the back would be ideal for some DnD or a board game meetup...
Overall a fantastic experience! Definitely visit Angie's, would love to see this place become a K-town staple read more
