A…read morefriendly waitress brought our carafe of coffee and while Mrs. K. decided to order from the menu, I started on the buffet. Before I was back with my first plate, her French Toast arrived. A great selection of proteins on the steam table and a nice variety of the classic breakfast offerings. A big plate of scrambled eggs and I was able to add cheese sauce and mushrooms on one side of my plate. On the other, some sausage links (very overdone) and some sliced ham (extremely salty). Lots of other high carb options available including biscuits, pancakes, French toast sticks, cheese and plain grits, home fries and tots. Something that might have been fried chicken livers and also some pieces of fried chicken. A dessert bar with banana pudding, jellos and fruits was also available. The place is clean and the service was great, clearing dirty dishes and restocking coffee creamer. A satisfying meal for sure. [Review 542 of 2026 - 4637 in North Carolina - 25724 overall]

Eye rolls when I asked for one thing. The main problem was the credit card charge. It's for credit cards only. I told the woman at the front that I was paying with a debit card. She added the credit charge. This is, according to Visa, fraudulent. I told her l what I was told, that Visa said that you can't charge a credit charge on a debit purchase. She dismissed my comment, saying "that's the way it's set up here." The reason is set up that way is that they set it up that way. Also, She pulled my check away so that I wouldn't notice the difference. I love a local business. The food is good, and it's a much loved institution here. I don't appreciate someone stealing from me. Pay cash, or eat elsewhere.

Today I enjoyed breakfast at the Waffle House in Morganton, North Carolina--affectionately known in…read moresome circles as the "Awful Waffle." I was served by a young woman named Ayden, and she was anything but the typical Waffle House experience. Most Waffle House servers (and the entire front-of-house team, for that matter) tend to be loud, boisterous, and, quite frankly, a little overwhelming. I've always assumed this is by design; the company wants you in and out as quickly as possible. Corporate strategy seems to confirm it--when a location stays slammed, they simply open another one rather than enlarging the existing building. It's a clever way to keep tables turning, and it works. I'm not criticizing the staff in any derogatory way; I'm simply noting that the high-energy, in-your-face style is part of the brand's DNA. Ayden was the complete opposite. She spoke softly, carried herself with genuine politeness, and delivered service that felt thoughtful and attentive. She wasn't trying to be flashy or flirtatious; she simply focused on doing her job well. You could tell she possesses strong natural service instincts. With the right training and time to develop, she could easily reach the level of five-star elite hospitality--the kind of server guests remember and specifically request on future visits. She handled my order flawlessly, and that is no small feat. I am an extremely particular eater. If there is a single pickle spear on the plate, the entire dish goes back. Onions, mushrooms, or peppers of any kind are an immediate deal-breaker. She nailed every detail on the first try. Yesterday, when I stopped in, my order was also perfect, though the restaurant was nearly empty and the staff was relaxed. Today the place had at least four or five other tables occupied, yet Ayden remained calm, focused, and consistently excellent. I had very little wait time, and the atmosphere was great until someone started playing the jukebox. In short, this young lady has real potential. If she chooses to invest the effort and receives proper mentorship, she could become one of those rare servers who elevate the entire dining experience. I left impressed--not just with the food, but with the quiet professionalism she brought to a restaurant that doesn't always prioritize subtlety. Waffle House has a solid concept and consistent product; on this visit, the service matched the quality of the meal. I'll definitely be back, and I'll be hoping Ayden is on the schedule when I return.

They took a long time to get to my order. The young woman kept calling me, "baby." But she took my order and I never saw her again. Another young girl finally came up with my food. Calling me "sweety" Asked me if I needed anything. I said, I needed silverware, napkins, and mustard. She apologized and returned with the mustard. I had to ask again for the silverware and napkin . After this point, I saw nobody again. It was not because it was busy. There were still only two other tables.. I couldn't get their attention for a to go box. When I had enough, I went up to the register to pay. The third lady approached said she would take care of my bill asked how much I wanted to give as a tip. I declined to include tip. The waitress that was assigned to me, approached and the lady handling my checkout told the waitress in front of me ... "she said she was ignored the whole time". They both proceeded to just look down until the transaction was completed. Just a weird all-around atmosphere/experience. Absolutely will not return! This not so delightful experience cost was 18.44.
