Don't skip coming here…read more We went with the two recommendations from Our server and we're NOT disappointed. My husband got the huevos rancheros. Delicious. I got the chilaquiles with chicken and for the two sauces choice the white and verde. It was the best I've ever had. Everything was cooked to perfection and the flavors were spot on! The service was slow but that was bc every single table was taken - and now I know why. We will be back.

The chicken biscuit was crispy, flavorful, and paired perfectly with the soft, buttery biscuits and gravy. The French toast was thick, fluffy, and had just the right amount of sweetness. Honestly, I couldn't decide which one I liked more. The portions were generous, the food came out hot and fresh, and the service was friendly. It's the kind of breakfast spot that makes you want to come back and work your way through the entire menu.

Cute country style restaurant not far from our hotel. It was oddly busy for a Thursday morning. We…read morechecked in at the hostess stand and was told 15 min wait but we were sat sooner. They have delicious looking pies and other baked goods in the showcase. Our waitress was friendly and took our drink order while we looked over the menu. I opted for the regular breakfast of bacon, eggs, hash-browns and toast. My sister ordered eggs with French toast that looked really good as well. The restaurant is super cute-there was a diner top area with stools, plenty of tables and booths throughout. The restrooms were nice and clean and this restaurant will probably be one of my go to when I'm in the area.

We were seated right away as a party of 8, which was great for a larger group. Unfortunately, the experience this time was really slow when it came to food service. Our food took about 45 minutes to arrive, and we noticed smaller tables that were seated after us received their meals, ate, and left before we even got ours. Our server also walked past our table several times without giving any updates, which was frustrating while waiting. We typically go to the Liberty location because we've had better experiences there. This visit just wasn't the best, but we do like the overall vibe of the restaurant and hope service improves at this location.

After securing tix to tour the Truman home, I had 2 hours to kill in downtown Independence, so I…read moreheaded straight for Coffee Elsewhere to check them out for the first time. The place is quite small but charming and eclectic. I wanted to sit down and stay awhile but 4 people were hogging a space that could have sat 10, which was half the available area. Why do people do this?? Anyhow... I stood at the counter and chatted up the owner about the local coffee industry while he was busy making all the drinks ahead of mine - great guy and I'm sorry I didn't get his name. By the time I got my drink, the one and only 2 seat sidewalk table had opened up, which was a good thing since he made my cortado in a ceramic cup. I sat outside and waved at strangers passing while sipping a perfectly crafted beverage with beans roasted by Rochester Coffee. Hopefully next time I visit, I can find an interior seat and continue our conversation and enjoy the art and the vibe.

I went here while I waited for my dogs teeth to be cleaned at the vet. It looked like a good place…read morefor a quick bite and I was right. The restaurant is easily accessible and there is plenty of parking. Rae's is located in a strip mall and there appeared to be significant amount of traffic. There weren't many people eating, just some regulars but it made for a peaceful dining experience. Plenty of breakfast options to choose from for a meal. I ordered a side pancake and the waitress gave me a look. She said "Honey, these are big!" I thanked her for the warning and told her I loved leftovers. lol The food was great and the pancakes were huge. Very satisfying and comforting food. Hit the spot on a cold January day. Prices were very reasonable and well within range. One happy customer!

Wanted to check this place out since their move to Independence. Mr. G. And I went for breakfast…read moreand we were not disappointed. I ordered the Ultimate Breakfast. I don't usually like breakfast potatoes. I do now. The potatoes were bite sized, had the skins on them, were seasoned, but not hot. The potatoes were well cooked but not mushy had a crisp exterior. What I really enjoyed was my biscuit and Gravy. The Gravy was perfect. It had me thinking about how delish it was later in the week. There was enough food to take home fir a second meal. There is a homey feel to the restaurant and the manager waits tables!! Mr. G. Reported an issue with the men's restroom and it was attended to immediately. Definite going back when I want Biscuits and Gravy.

With a small giftshop too. Great spot to grab dinner and will be able to easily get seated to a table.

I went here for Father's Day after hearing how good their breakfast was. Their house salad was…read morehuge, but it was just a basic salad. I had the pot roast. It seemed to be placed under a heat lamp until the meat was dried out, than slathed with brown gravy just before serving. I received one carrot, a piece of potato and mashed potatoes drowned in brown gravy. Edible,but not worth what we were charged. For me, the highlight was going to be Apple Cobbler a la Mode. The presentation was spectacular,but the menu clearly stated that this was baked in their kitchen. I took one spoonful and it was still partially frozen. I sent it back, and was told it would be put back in the oven, but it was back in two minutes, and the plate was piping hot. I asked if went back into the oven, and was told it was put into a microwave oven. It was at best luke warm, so I ate the ice cream and left the entire cobbler, less two small spoonfuls, on the table. I was offered a to go box, which I refused. I was there with my sons, who didn't want me to make a scene. Had I been there by myself, I would have had a long, difficult conversation with the manager. I may go back for breakfast (which is served all day), but not for lunch or dinner. I would have gotten the same level of food if I bought a Healthy Choice frozen dinner.

We did find this location in downtown Liberty. A smaller dining room that tends to fill up quickly, but well worth the wait time. Still absolutely delicious, but very out of our way. If we even find ourselves close, we hoof it over there quickly. The Farmers Omelette and Gravy Scramble are our go to's always, but their seasonal options are usually pretty legit. Such a morning gem!

Service was friendly and prompt…read more Eggs Benedict was a redo. Poached eggs would have bounced, they were so overcooked. The ham was over grilled to the point of being dry and chewy. They happily recooked it while I watched my wife finish her breakfast. Big Biscuit next time! Edit: the eggs were great on the recook. The ham, however, was stone cold. Lowering to 2 stars... the same # of chances they had to get it right.
