I try to steer away from chains and order from local owned eateries but I'm consistently disappointed in the food. I ordered a breakfast sandwich with a cup of soup. I can tell you the sandwich was good but bland, and I couldn't eat the hash browns because they forgot to pack any utensils or condiments even though I had checked the order form. I drank my soup broth, which was a creamy chicken with chunks of veggies and that was really good. If only I had a spoon and some salt and pepper, but...I can't give a complete review because without utensils I'm lost.

Well I've been to Little Chef for breakfast and never been too disappointed or amazed just a decent…read morebreakfast at a decent price and kinda love the charm of this locally owned spot that's been around forever. So I decided to try it for lunch and am torn between 3-4 stars. I got the breaded veal diner/dinner type special, posted on the board behind the counter seating. $14. And it came with bean or cream of potato soup. The veal was not a whole piece of veal but a ground concoction that seemed like something from the grocery frozen food section. Not awful but not awesome. Then again this is a little diner so should I expect chef food? It is called Little Chef. Undecided. It was served hot and crisp which was good because the gravy and mashed taters were definitely overwhelming the texture and flavor of the meal. The gravy was ok but a little different taste than any gravy I've ever had. Definitely not homemade and was very strong flavored. I think if it had some beans or a small salad included with this would have been happier. I got hot tea which was a challenge as the water spilled all over from the tea pot and I was told to put my hand on the top to avoid that, but then your finger got a little bit of burn from the hot metal. The soup was good and I took it home. The service was fine, absolutely no issues there and since it wasn't too busy, as expected. I know everyone's prices everywhere have gone up, but I just can't justify what I paid for what I got. Again not sure what expectations should be in this economy or where to put the extra minus star for the state of restaurants and value, but this was just a bit under expectations.
