Another great breakfast experience. Whitman omelette was so good and perfectly cooked. Wife had a couple eggs with smothered hash browns. Even when they are busy the service and food keeps up. read more

I hear they are changing the menu In January and I really hope they don't change it too much. The menu is so very good. Solid. Dependable. Delicious. I really love that I know what I'm getting and it's going to be tasty. read more

Very good breakfast food!!! They serve breakfast all day so I have never had anything else. The strawberry cream cheese blintzes are so delicious, the omelets are full of cheese and toppings, hubby loves the biscuits and gravy read more

I asked for a recommendation. It had way too much cheese on it. Looking at the menus may have been my fault says it has extra cheese on the Whitman omelet. read more

Good value, good food, good service. You get exactly what you expect from a family type diner, and won't be disappointed. The prices are reasonable, and Clarette's is a breakfast stop for us every time we visit Walla Walla. read more

Always satisfied with my service!! they are kind and family friendly and the food is always excellent!

Great gluten free options! I tried the pancakes and had to ask if they really were gluten free. They were so delicious! My husband and I shared potatoes mixed with veggies which were also very good. We all enjoyed our food. Our server was friendly and not at all bothered by how busy they were. She kept up and checked on us appropriately. Would recommend this restaurant... good vegetarian options as well. read more

So delish! For a Saturday morning it was busy but we were seated immediately and didn't wait long for anything. 2 different kinds of house coffee!!! Pumpkin pancakes are to die for if you love everything pumpkin like I do. read more

Clarette's Restaurant - Scrambled eggs with Beyond meat Italian sausage. - American Near Me - Walla Walla, Washington

See all

Great diner feel. Lots of options and quick service. Pricey but worth it. Fully enjoyed this joint!

We were recently in Walla Walla and took a chance on Clarette's based on Yelp reviews. Service was timely and food was excellent. I was hungry, so the serving sizes seem a little small - but the food was excellent. I had the Walla Walla University Wrap and Minestrone soup. Both were very good. read more

Food (great) + Service (crappy) = 3 stars Let's start positive: the food was REALLY good. Vegetarian gravy/options is always a nice touch, especially when they offer biscuits and gravy. Those who have read my previous reviews know about my love affair with this gut-gasket. Good hash browns, good portion, size, overall yummy factor. Now for the crappy part: Mean-server-lady. I can usually de-crabby servers by being polite, and non-demanding because I was them once. Don't bother here - she's a mean crabby lady and she likes it that way. No it's not charming. In fact, it actually affects the quality if your meal when the server is a turd. Also, I'm pretty sure, breakfast at 10 a.m. on a Sunday morning should not take 2 hours. Pretty sure, unless you fall asleep at the table or something. You could say that we chatted away the morning and forgot the time - but you'd be wrong. What's more likely is we sat for 15 minutes before mean-server-lady takes our order, 10 minutes later mean-server-lady brings our coffee. 45 minutes after this (do the math, we're talking 1 hour + 10 minutes so far) our food arrives - maybe they had to persuade the chickens to lay eggs? Water glasses go dry. So does the coffee. Then another half hour after that...we have to chase down mean-server-lady to request our check. This place would be a repeater, but if mean-server-lady walked up to the table...I would walk out. Just sayin'. read more

I generally stick to small meals, but I managed to hurt myself real good at Clarette's. Seriously, I had to sip coffee for half an hour before I could get up from the table. It was embarrassing, but I'll be back. And the hash browns are crisp. Real crisp. MM good. HINT: Great veggie options. read more

I love this place. I've eaten breakfast here dozens, if not hundreds of times. There is nothing extravagant about it, but just solid, comfort food. The strawberry waffle is still my favorite anywhere I've been (the Klickers' strawberries certainly help). Some friends have had some bad experiences (e.g., JD with mashed potatoes hashbrowns), but I consider them to be aberrations. As others have noted, you'll generally have a wait, particuarly so on weekends. But I've never regretted waiting. read more

Amazing Food. Great for vegetarians. Most of the dishes with meat can be substituted for a veggie-meats (such as stripples, fri-chick, etc). Which is awesome, especially at breakfast. Additionally, some of the items, like the "biscuit and gravy" gravy is also available for vegetarians. And if that's not awesome enough... the food is tasty!!!! If your going on a Saturday or Sunday morning, especially on a holiday like father's day, expect to wait outside for a table. But it's well worth it. read more

Ladies working there are all super sweet and friendly. Service was great. Food is nothing surprising, but good and plenty of it.

This place was so bad. My parents and I ate there for lunch. The service right off was terrible, and the restaurant felt sticky.. everywhere. Then my moms iced tea came with a lemon (as they do) but the lemon was brown! I also ate a roast beef sandwich and the meat looked green. Very unfortunate to have such a bad meal here, since it came highly recommended from two different groups of people. read more

A cute little diner and a popular breakfast spot. Felt very homey. We met here with some family on a Sunday morning and were seated right away, we barely missed the mob of people who soon followed. I debated between the pumpkin pancakes and crepes. I ended up ordering the pumpkin pancakes, mostly because Yelp had 10+ reviews mentioning them. The first couple bites were delicious, but the closer I got to cutting into the center of them revealed they were still completely left raw and uncooked inside. I usually don't like to make a fuss, but they really weren't edible. The waitress grabbed up the place and had me another stack in no time. This time they were cooked perfectly, and the real whipped cream is wonderful. I do have to note, however, they do NOT taste of pumpkin. They taste like gingerbread! I taste all the spice, but no real pumpkin flavor. Still delicious, but rather misleading to someone who might be expecting something else. Menu is large and the service was good, I would come back. read more

I keep trying to love Clarettes, but I just can't. Being a college student, I've been here a handful of times, but the meal has never lived up to my expectations. Every time I leave Clarettes, I say, "I never need to come back again." First of all, the wait can be OUTRAGEOUS for food. I once waited an hour and a half for my date and I's breakfast to come out. Granted, they were busy but and hour and half wait on some pancakes is unreasonable. The staff is very kind and attentive but I've found every meal there to be mediocre. Mediocre pancakes, mediocre eggs... With a bubbling hip town like Walla Walla, I would love to see Clarettes step up to the plate and be a competitive restaurant. read more

Very friendly and attentive staff and the food was quite good, even the scallops which I was hesitant about. Great value and I would definitely recommend for some simple cooking. read more

D-licious! Cute lil country style restaurant near Whitman...lots of college students. The food was great and the seattle's best was always fresh and piping hot. Daniel had the cheese blintzes and I had the walla walla omelette - we shared. It was great, If I were in Walla Walla again I would definitely go back. read more

Just ate at Clarette's and can say that I love everything about this place. We got there about 11:30 and got seated immediately. Had the loveliest older lady (white hair in an up-do) as our waitress who came over right away for our drink order and then a few minutes later, once we were ready to order came back promptly. She was very friendly and the food took about 10 minutes to cook....great time! Food was great - we both got the Corned Beef Hash Breakfasts w/ Pancakes. Price was amazing! Will be back! read more

Right off the Whitman College campus this diner is awesome! Super friendly and helpful staff, great food, clean business. We had been travelling for hours, and both were craving a salad for lunch. These were not just your open a bag and dump on the plate salads. They were tasty, filling, and fresh. Mom had some clam chowder as well. It was made by Ivars, a Washington staple, and she said it was mighty tasty. Being allergic to pork, sadly I could not taste the bacon based soup. We were full for the rest of the day. That did not stop us from eating more later, after all we were traveling. They had so many options to choose from: breakfast could include traditional American foods, crepes, omelets, etc. Lunch and dinner could include soup, salad, American sandwiches, European sandwiches, wraps, burgers, and many different entrees. There was something for everyone on this menu. The rooms were big and there was no wait. The floors and tables were clean. The waitress was nice. We really enjoyed our time here. read more

This place would get four stars if our server hadn't been so groucho marx. The pumpkin pancakes were OUT OF CONTROL though. With cinnamon whipped cream? They were a dream. The fish n' chips was also really tasty, as well as the tartar sauce and baked potato. But by lord I've seen better veggies in my day. Those veggies looked like 1977 came out of a can. It was a good place to eat and get out of the rain. Oh, and they had homemade wild mushroom raviolis that were also delicious. Honestly, I enjoyed myself here, I just couldn't figure out what was up with the grumpy server from 1978 and the veggies from 1978. read more

Diner style, local food. PROS-lg menu, lg portions, flexible w substitutions, breakfast served all day. CONS-poor service on this particular night- one waitress only, flys-the lady said we brought them from Idaho- lukewarm portions of part of the meal. No wine/beer - "this is a family restaurant" said the server. Heck. It's in the wine country - just thought I'd ask! I'd still go back. read more

Fresh brewed ice tea! A mark of a high class restaurant! The food was good and the service was exceptional. We enjoyed our time there and will go back. read more

I LOVE Clarette's. I used to eat there all the time when I lived in Walla Walla. We would skip school sometimes just to go to Clarette's. Now I just eat when I visit. And it is just as I remember! There usually is a wait, but it is not long. It is worth it; read Tidbits while you wait. The breakfast is NOM. One of my favorites are the potato pancakes. The wait staff is awesome. I think the same people have worked there forever. They are sweet, accommodating, and knowledgeable. Go to Clarette's. read more

Clarette's is a nice little country-style diner serving up standard breakfast favorites. My friend and I arrived shortly after the completion of the Balloon Stampede launch and although the restaurant was busting at the seams shortly after our arrival, the servers didn't act harried and the wait times really weren't bad given the circumstances. The menu offered V-8, which I sipped while trying to remain balanced on a serious tear in the booth's vinyl seat. For a small extra charge one can receive Clarette's hashbrowns "covered" (with bacon & cheese) or "smothered" (with country gravy) and I highly recommend choosing at least the latter option. The hashbrowns are excellent, as is the gravy. Scrambled eggs with ham were acceptable but not amazing and I was disappointed that my request for added cheese was forgotten (though I chuckled that it was still charged to my bill for 25 cents!) My friend's Skillet Breakfast received similar mediocre marks, but her biscuit was reportedly excellent. read more

Are you hungover but still have to go out to breakfast with the folks? Well this is the perfect place. Cracker Barrel eat your heart out. This is what every little country breakfast joint strives to be. Rib sticking homemade goodness served up daily for decades. read more

hashbrowns covered in cheese and bacon bits?! 3 eggs, 4 links, 2 pancakes...Clarette's knows how to do breakfast, plus it was under $9 I could eat here everyday. read more

Solid breakfast. Took the family and all walked or wallowed out satisfied. Small place that is very popular but feels like home. 1 less star you ask? The pancakes were ok but mot what they were hyped to be. I had side of hash browns and both to me were just a little less than 5 stars. It's my visit I'm doing and that's the way the pancake rolls. Give it a try. read more

Came in alone. Ordered. An hour and 15mins later still no food. My waitress ran away when I signaled for her. Payed for my coffee at the front and left. read more

Came to Clarettes after having an awful experience at Bacon and eggs (don't recommend it at all). The staff was amazing at making me feel acknowledged and was seated after 3 minutes on a Sunday! Awesome customer service. Do yourself a favor and eat here!! read more

While traveling through Walla Walla, my dad insisted we eat here. It is everything you remember from an old school coffee shop/diner. Clean, quiet, friendly atmosphere and good food are a great combination. The portions are quite large & everything tastes fresh & has good flavor. We'll be back! read more

Food is fantastic. Price is not as advertised on Yelp and they cant change it which really sucks because I paid way more for a pick up order than I anticipated and they "cant" do anything about it. read more

Stopped by for a quick dinner during a recent visit to Walla Walla. Ordered hot tea and a bowl of garden vegetable soup. The tea and soup were hot and tasty. The waitress, Rose, was super sweet. This old school dinner was very relaxed and family friendly. Prices are reasonable. I felt at home here. read more

Was disappointed in the French toast. Had to send it back I wanted regular bread rather than French bread. Came back to visit Walla Walla all in all, not what I remember read more

I had a ham and egg scramble with the best hash browns of my life at Clarette's. Wonderful, friendly and efficient service. Can't wait for my next trip to Walla Walla just so I can have an amazing breakfast here again! read more
