Breakfast was good! The menu was maybe a little limited, but the food was very good. I loved the thick-cut bacon. Annette's is not a fancy place, but it's nice and quiet, and the service is very good. My coffee cup never made it to empty! Three of us went after church today, and it's a good thing we hurried. We were seated right away, but others behind us had to wait for a while. read more

This place is amazing, I've always enjoyed coming back time after time! The food prices are very reasonable as well the size portions. The service was also pretty fast. I really liked how attentive our server was! If you're a country potatoes fan I definitely recommend this place!! read more

I wish there were outdoor seating because it was freezingggg inside this place. Plenty of open seats, so no need for a reservation, even on the weekend. I went with a group of 3 others and we all ordered coffee, drinks, and food. Their drip coffee was pretty watery, but the food and cocktails were amazing. Everyone in my party had leftovers, so the price point of the dishes is definitely worth it. Great local spot! read more

This place has become one of my favorite spots. The atmosphere is welcoming, the staff are kind and professional, and everything I've ordered has been delicious. Prices are fair, and it's a relaxing place to eat whether you're solo or with friends. Highly recommend checking it out. The meatloaf is amazing, and their breakfast options are definitely worth trying. read more

The service was horrible. We call ahead to see if they serve prime Rib on Friday nights. Person on phone was not knowledgeable on how much it would cost. Gave me wrong quote. When we arrived there were no servers in the restaurant or at the door. We waited about 10 minutes and no one even noticed we were there. Finally I had to go up near the kitchen entrance and even then no one noticed me. I finally had to call into kitchen to get seated. We actually ended up just leaving because Noone seemed to want to work that night. Very disappointing. read more

Use to be one of my favorite breakfast spots unfortunately last 3x I've been it has been terrible

It's not a good look to have a number of bussed and open tables available, but to leave people in the lobby waiting long. Food was pretty good. Portions were large, but I don't really care about quantity so long as the quality is good. I got a black coffee, and it had a hint of cigarette butts. It was gross. The ambience is lacking. The restaurant has a dark and dank feel to it. Almost all of the shades on the windows were drawn, or half drawn. All the staff were wearing pretty unprofessional looking uniforms. Restaurant was a tad dirty. They need to get one of those manual powerless vacuums to pick up all the food that falls on the ground. Hide the stack of Pepsi paper cups, and do a few other small little things to improve the visual aspect. read more

Came here for breakfast this morning based on review I saw on "Bring Fido". It was misting a little bit, but outdoor tables under an overhang, so could have done outside with my dog, but restaurant unprepared for outdoor seating as all the tables and chairs were still chained together. Came back a few days later to try again for outside, and tables and chairs still chained together. "Patio closed because it's too hot out". It was 77. Gotta drop a star for this. Suggest if you are taking your dog, call ahead to see if patio open Annette's is that iconic kind of small town cafe, actually quite large inside with lots of 2 and 4-top seating. I arrived about 7 and it was a "seat yourself anywhere" welcoming sign. I hadn't even sat down when my friendly server approached me with coffee pot in hand. Fantastic. I had read the menu in advance, so knew I wanted to try the 6-egg "huge" omelet. Settle on the "Jake" omelet which is a LOT of everything; 2 kinds of sausage, ham, bacon, cheese and veggies. Paired with country breakfast potato and rye toast. It was "huge" for sure, but with attentive service warming my coffee frequently, I made my way through it. I'm guessing this one breakfast was close to my entire day calorie goal of 2100! Mostly locals in here this morning, but great friendly vibe. There's lots of side street head-in parking and a couple small car spots on the street in front. West Salem location, but easy to find. read more

We've been there several times. My sister who comes from so cal always wants to go for. Lunch, as well as my brother who comes from Washington DC. Great sandwiches and large helping of fries and onion rings. Cheese steak are great I eat them so fast I should order 2!!!!! And I am over 80!!! Can't miss a place that serves great American food. Breakfast is also great. Be sure to take your. Out of town guest there. Ken C read more

It seems this place might have an insect issue. When we were given silverware, there were ants on it. When we were given a to go box, there was a cockroach on it... read more

The food was great. It was my first time trying the Monte Cristo. We ordered the biscuit as a side but not the one we had expected. We will try it another time with gravy instead of a side item. We sat outside so the service took a little longer. read more

Love this place! We were in the mood for breakfast food and it was after noon. This place serves breakfast all day! We got an order of crab cakes and the "salmon lo cal" breakfast. Highly recommend both. When in Salem, check out this spot! read more

Overall this place is excellent!. I've dined in before and food is superbly delicious!. Staffs are so nice and tend full.

The food is always fresh and cooked just right (for me). They're service is quick and friendly. The restaurant is clean. read more

Good food, can be very busy. Service varies. Host is often preoccupied. Restaurant occupies a former grocery store. Lounge in the back. Outside seating. read more

Great breakfasts and staff is attentive and friendly. Definitely a good option in West Salem. I'll be going back!

One of those diner restaurants that hits the spot every time. Good food, super friendly staff. Love that they have freezer jams and other condiments that amplifies their menu. Never been disappointed in the food or the portions! read more

Only a handful of tables, food took over 40 minutes to get. We were a party of 5 and they charged party of 6 for tip because a toddler that did not eat sat at the table with us. Was super disappointed in the friendliness and the service. Food was decent. read more

Very unhappy with my breakfast. I ordered Waffles with strawberries and whipped cream. I got two small waffles that tasted like they'd been reheated from frozen, with hard chunks of sugar baked in. The plate was completely drenched in artificial strawberry sauce, it was more like soup than a breakfast dish. And instead of a bit of whipped cream, it looked like they sprayed an entire can on top. I had to scrape everything off just to find the actual waffles underneath. read more

We had a 1-hour wait for pancakes which were cold and could not be cut with a fork. Everything else was okay to good. This was a go-to every time we came to Salem. We won't be back. read more

Diana definitely made our experience 5 stars. She was very attentive, personable and has a smile that made you feel welcome. The food was definitely fresh & delicious. We will be back!!! read more

I came once before and dinned inside. The food was great good enough to get a five star rating. Come in a month later and if I could upload my pictures it would speak for itself. I can pull the cheese away from the fries and it was burnt with bacon, green onions pull off like a omelet blanket coving the fries. When you spend money for another to prepare food for you and your family it should be a enjoyable experience not a disappointed factor.Today 5 stars moved to two stars. read more

Great spot tucked away in West Salem. Staff is very friendly, food is delicious, and coffee and fresh squeezed OJ is excellent. They accommodated our group of 6 on a Sunday morning with ease and delivered great service. They have a mini skillet + small pancake or French toast that satisfies the sweet and savory tastes. Others in our party enjoyed the Haystack and the classic chicken fried steak. It's a great stop, especially if you're headed to the coast...right off the highway! read more

Just walked out. Didn't get my coffee thirty minutes after ordering. Server was wearing house slippers.

Best breakfast place in Salem hands-down always! Super friendly and fast staff every time Clean and comfortable atmosphere read more

Looks nice on the inside. also nice temperature not to hot or cold. The food was okay. I am giving it a 3 because it took them awhile to take are order and fill are waters and they Arn't that busy. it is expensive to eat here. I don't think me and my man will be coming back. read more

Good food with large portions- not a cheap place but good if you are hungry. Service good.

The food is always terrific! However, the biscuits were a little "doughy" this time and heavy. The restaurant isself has always been a great place to recommend and to go, but, it's no longer the clean restaurant that I used to go to. There are marks on the walls, there's flies flying around your meal and the bathrooms, particularly the men's bathroom is disgusting! This time I went, I was disappointed in the cleanliness or lack there of. I wonder what the kitchen must look like! read more

My husband and I stopped for breakfast and we each had a delicious meal. Service was a bit slow but coffee was plentiful and our waitress super friendly. I happen to love has but most places serve canned hash which is not so good in my opinion. Annette's makes their own from prime rib and it is fantastic. Probably the best ever! My husband had Danish blueberry lemon crepes which he claims were pretty darn tasty. Lots of food and definitely leftovers for us to take home. We will be back! read more

I had occasion to have brunch here with 4 friends from 11 to 12:30. The food was good, the portions large and the service timely. It is definitely a "Family" restaurant and our table was surrounded by 3 other tables with children under 4. Initially at 11 the noise level wasn't bad, but as time went by, the restaurant filled up and the children became louder and the noise level increased so it was difficult for the 5 of us to have a conversation. For the noise level alone, I probably won't eat here again. Of course, being surrounded by those little kids didn't help either. read more

Horrible. Waited an hour to be seated (as expected on a weekend), then waited over an hour and a half for food, watching multiple tables be served before us who had been seated after. Our server was awful. Never coming back and recommend that anyone reading this doesn't go in the first place. After multiple attempts to check in with our server and being met with a really bad attitude and no willingness to help, we left before the food arrived. We paid for drinks, and our server then proceeded to tell us we won't be welcome back after the owner reviews footage and sees that we left before food came out. Turns out our server was the manager! Literally would not wish that experience on my worst enemy. read more

Went to have lunch and we were seated. 26 minutes past and still nobody acknowledged us, asked us for water, and other tables that sat after us already had their food orders. A waiter finally walked by and say, " looks like you all could use waters" and proceeds to ignore us for another 10 minutes. We got up and left. The worst customer service experience ever. Do better! read more

Had brunch today. Was delicious. Huge portions. Biscuits were BIG but more dense than flaky. Forgot to take pictures. We ordered the chicken fried chicken, prime hash, pulled pork enchiladas and mini veggie skillet w French toast. Lovely wait staff. read more

A friend and I met at Annette's Westgate for brunch on my birthday. It has a dining room and a lounge. The atmosphere is quaint. The food is excellent, the portions are substantial, and prices are reasonable. I ordered an omelet with various meats, hash browns, and a biscuit. My friend ordered a vegetarian skillet with bacon (everything is better with bacon!) with hash browns and French toast. We each had a non-alcoholic drink. The bill was just under $40. My only niggle would be that the service was on the slow side. I didn't care - I will take quality food and slow service over quality service and so-so food any day. Plus it was my birthday! read more

Small amount of breakfast food for a big amount of money. $23 for small breakfast. Other places charge way less for that portion of food.

Had a great breakfast here while visiting our son. Brooke was amazing! Loved how they treated you like family.

The chicken fried chicken is my favorite! I never order anything else. And it's a small quiet place.

Had an amazing breakfast here! Wife had standard breakfast with country potatoes. I had the oatmeal--which was amazing and came with bananas, walnuts, brown sugar and milk. Yum. Check them out! read more
