Blueberry Pancake Plate
Samuel O.

Had a friend from the south who was missing home and raving about Cracker Barrel. This was the closest location we could find, so we finally went. The vibes were off the chart. The dining experience was underwhelming. It's got a general store and the staff is very amiable. People were fun to talk to, and I'm sure we would have become friends if I lived closer to Camarillo. I'm a huge sucker for good fried chicken, and they really hyped it up saying it's one of their better dishes on the menu. Place has a very homey vibe which I'm all for, but when I got my coffee, first thing I noticed was a dirty cup. I mean the waitress poured me coffee in the cup and didn't even notice the long sticky substance on its side. I get that they're busy, but serving clean cups seems like a basic standard in the food industry; I took a photo of it for documentation. There are a lot of options and maybe the breakfast menu is better, but the fried chicken was very average. After all the hype and observing the ambience, I was hoping to experience something similar to Roscoe's Chicken & Waffles, but the food was very subpar. I mean I would have rather have gone to Popeye's for some hot chicken and Ralphs for some biscuits while paying half the price. To summarize Pros - The staff were friendly and fun. Cons - The hour-long drive, the dirty cup and the mediocre food.

Today I took my family here for dinner, upon entering I noticed how super clean it was & so were their restrooms, it's highly organized & attention to details. It's great you can either sit inside our outside, there is a lot of room inside. I love all the decorations inside the restaurant itself, super country & all the tools they use back then. The atmosphere here was super Welcoming, inviting, warm, cozy. When you first enter here, the first thing you see is the Gift Shop!! So many Wonderful gifts here! As we made our way to be seated by the stand, Helmi & Stella helped us to our seats, since we wanted to sit more in the back. Stella handed us our menu, Sweet Ladies! Elise C, was our waitress she said if we had any questions& she answered them all beautifully! I did ask if they still had their signature Shepard pie casserole, which they didn't & not yet (Seasonal).. but she told me they could still make. I was beyond thrilled! That was a YES for me & we also ordered "The Best Classic Meatloaf" which includes 2 sides of your choice, we got Steamed Broccoli & Mashed potatoes with gravy, $6 Take Home Meals (3 Meatloaf with Mac & Cheese) To go. Everything was super delicious, very hearty Meal, mouthwatering, savory!! Their price points are spot on for the Quality & Quantity of their Delicious Meals! They also have rewards here too, for eating & gift shop for you to earn! As we were eating I really did notice all the waitresses helping each other out, it was really busy. I thought that's so sweet of them! Elise C was making sure we had everything we needed. She was on it! Elise was so sweet, polite, kind, caring, very down to earth. Elise C has the positive upbeat energy about herself that really radiates! She is your Golden Star her shine will never fade! Please treasure her greatly! We paid our bill, which is toward the back, Austin help me with my transaction , very thing was a breeze! I also did shop in the gift store they have many varieties of great finds & gifts. There merchandises includes Thanksgiving/ Fall, Christmas, Halloween, Beautiful Clothing, Jewelry, shoes, Children's toys & Clothing, ton of decorations, candy of all sorts. As I went to check out again, Michael the Regional Manger helped me. He was super friendly & very welcoming, I had bought something that would break he immediately wrapped it for me. I thought that was so thoughtful & sweet of him! I would love to Especially Thank Elise & Ashely for Fantastic & Fabulous Memorable Visit! I would like to also add Kristina, Jade, Helmi, Stella and Austin for also helping & Very Beautiful & Hard Workings Ladies & Michael! I would like to Thank Cracked Barrel for Great & Positive & Wonderful Experience visit here. I'll definitely be back soon! I'll tell all my Family & Friends to visit! Please be Kind & Courteous to these Hard Workers!

Old Timer's Breakfast with extra sausage
Leo B.

Everybody knows Cracker Barrel. If someone says they want a Southern food this place usually comes up. My visit didn't match that expectation. I ordered the Old Timer's Breakfast and added an extra sausage. When the plate came out, my first thought was, "That's it?" The food wasn't arranged badly, it just looked empty. Big plate, small portion, and nothing about it looked exciting. Breakfast plates are usually pretty similar everywhere, so presentation matters. The scrambled eggs were a tiny portion. There were three slices of tomato, one of them still a little green, and the sausage that comes with the meal was small and pretty dry. (There are two in my photo only because I paid extra for another one.) The coffee - it was not a coffee The one thing I really enjoyed was the Hashbrown Casserole Tots. Those were excellent. I'm not going to talk about the parking, the country-style decor, or the gift shop at the entrance. Every Cracker Barrel has those. I do want to mention my server. She was genuinely kind and pleasant the whole time. She's the reason this review gets 2 stars instead of 1.

This was my first time ever go into a Cracker Barrel. It's definitely an interesting place especially if you like the old style decorations, which I do. The waitress is friendly. One problem was she brought us the incorrect lunch that we ordered, but it was no problem because it was still good. We had the chicken tenders and they were plentiful. We were just passing by at shopping in the Camarillo shopping outlet so this is a very convenient place. The bottom line is if you're in the area and want a lunch that have fair prices for the quantity give Cracker Barrel a try.

We walk in and gift shop had much happened..Easter, baby clothes, candies galore & old fashion candies too Toys, clothes, it's a great shop very cool And very friendly After lunch a bought some gifts at store it's a cute store We walk up to a cashier and took us to a table Lunch time not a lot of servers But our servers was busy and kept forgetting a set up lol She was funny I had chicken soup not any chicken in my soup And hushpuppies were great There was more then I thought was coming in a order. Chicken n Dumplings Had so many dumplings in the soup which was good I had a few also they were good dumplings But hushpuppies were my favorite And dipping sauce was okay I like a kick in the sauce.

General store

Overall I haven't been the biggest fan of Cracker Barrel in the past (no matter the location) This review today is based on todays visit only. I'm glad I gave it a chance this afternoon. It was great for a nice treat and just a minute to relax. We ordered the cinnamon roll skillet, regular coffee and the specialty vanilla latte. The skillet was very good. A nice account of gooey frosting and cinnamon and butter filling. It comes hot to the table and the warm skillet keeps everything the perfect temperature so the last bite is as good as the first. It was lunch time and the place was rather busy. However, it looked like the service staff kept everything running smoothly. Our server, Susan, was personable, attentive (without being intrusive) and overall efficient. I would feel lucky to be seated in her section again. Walking into the restaurant you step straight into their general store. Lots to look at, and if you're like me you'll end buying something, "you just can't live without". My experience today gives me confidence in trying again for a full service meal. When looking at the menu today I was eyeing the fried chicken.

This was my first time visiting Cracker Barrel. Upon entering, I noticed that they had a small gift shop attached to the restaurant. The restaurant itself was very spacious, with plenty of tables available for dining in. It offers classic Southern-style comfort food and a nostalgic atmosphere. I browsed through the gift shop while I waited for my table to be ready. For a small shop, they had a wide variety of snacks and other goodies to choose from. I even found snacks and drinks that I've never seen before! For my meal, I went with the chicken tenders combo. I ordered the 6-piece Nashville tenders meal and chose mac and cheese and steak fries as my sides. The Nashville sauce came on the side, which I thought was a nice touch because I was able to control how much sauce I poured onto the tenders myself. The mac and cheese wasn't memorable, but it wasn't bad either. I just wish it had been a bit more flavorful. The steak fries were seasoned with garlic and salt and were cooked perfectly. They paired well with my tenders. The chicken tenders themselves were fried to perfection, crispy on the outside and juicy and tender on the inside. They were also very well seasoned. The Nashville sauce was not one of my favorites, though. It had a smoky, mildly spicy, but also sweet taste. I prefer Nashville sauces that are smoky and spicy, but not sweet. Let's talk about the service. My server was sweet and had great knowledge of the menu, but she wasn't as attentive as I had hoped. I had to flag her down a few times to get her attention. Overall, this restaurant offers a family-friendly atmosphere, comfort food classics, decent service, and a pretty cool gift shop. I'll definitely be coming back again! Ratings: Ambiance - 5/5 Service - 4/5 Gift shop - 5/5 Food - 4/5

6pcs chicken tenders + 2 sides (Mac n cheese & broccoli)

My family and I had been walking around the outlets for several hours, and by the time 3 p.m. rolled around, we were all starving. Since I had never been to Cracker Barrel before, we decided to stop by and give it a try. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by shelves of merchandise since the entrance leads straight into their gift shop. There were lots of little knickknacks and nostalgic items. We did not end up buying anything, especially since we had already finished most of our holiday shopping, but next time we might browse more when we are not so tired. We were then welcomed by a friendly hostess and promptly seated. I absolutely loved the dining area decor. The walls were covered with old-timey relics like antique telephones, glass bottles, spades, and more. With so many restaurants moving toward a modern look, I really appreciated how themed and cozy this place felt. For food, we ordered the Hashbrown Shepherd's Pie and the six-piece chicken tenders with two sides. The shepherd's pie was flavorful and packed with tender beef, carrots, and celery. I especially enjoyed soaking the biscuits in the sauce. The chicken tenders were also good, with a lighter breading rather than a thick, crunchy coating, which is my preference. Overall, I really enjoyed our late lunch and would definitely come back again. If I had to point out a few cons, the service was a bit slow despite the restaurant not being very crowded, the cornbread tasted more like a muffin with only a subtle corn flavor, and the bathroom could have used better organization and cleaning, as it was fairly dirty during our visit.

Polite and prompt service. Ambiance is great with a western saloon look and fireplace going. Cute li'l gift shop as you enter. Lots of cute fun Knick knacks. Tried the grilled chicken breast with 3 sides, baked potato and Fried Apple and fried Okra. Fried Apple with cinnamon taste so delicious like the apple pie filling. And fried okra fritters were tasty too! We picked corn bread/biscuits. Boy that corn bread/ biscuits are goooood. Cracker Barrel knows what they are doing with those biscuits. Will definitely recommend this place and go back for those sides and corn bread/ biscuits.

I want to be fair but honest when rating Cracker Barrel. First we were great with a very friendly hostess. When we sat, the waitress was very friendly as well. We were told if we signed up for their membership we would get a free appetizer today. So that's what we did and we ordered our food. The first thing that came was the chicken noodle soup and salad which was quite good. Then we got our appetizer which was the fried pickles. Very good as well. Then our food came out. We got the meat loaf with green beans and greens and fried chicken with loaded potato and sweet carrots. The meat loaf was good but didn't come with any sauce. The loaded baked potato was good as well. The rest of the food, we were a little disappointed with. The green beans and greens tasted like they came from a can with very little flavor, the chicken was way over fried and the carrots were just ok, nothing special. When we were done, we went to pay and scanned my rewards for the free appetizer. Well what wasn't told to us is that it was on the next visit, not this current visit. The cashier was very sweet and reduced the appetizer to $0.01. We were thankful. It will be safe to say we appreciated all the workers and they were wonderful, just wished the food was better.

Old timers breakfast

Had the old timers breakfast at Cracker Barrel this morning in Camarillo. What a cool place. The host was very friendly and professional as was the server. The coffee was good and food hot and tasty. A beautiful day and nice way to start it off at Cracker Barrel. Recommended

We had such a pleasant experience at this Cracker Barrel. There aren't many locations nearby so we were very excited to stop by after shopping at the outlets. We were seated quickly, and every single staff member was so kind from the host to the gift shop register, and our server Amber was phenomenal! She was so helpful and attentive and made sure we had a great meal. We got the chicken tenders, meatloaf, and fried chicken breast, all were great but my favorite were the tenders. But the biscuits...if you've been to Cracker Barrel you know the biscuits are to die for. We got the beignets for dessert and they were amazing, melt-in-your mouth delicious. The gift store connected was super cute too with so many fun knick knacks. Will definitely be back if I'm ever in the area!

West of Orleans is the real deal; an institution that meets, excels, devastates all notions of what Cajun/Creole/BBQ cuisine can or should accomplish to stand out amongst the rest of the competition. And with how high they stand, all should recognize. With a menu as expansive as most, West of Orleans manages to offer their patrons all of the classics seen with most other restaurants of the same variety, but with so much more... But onto the food. It's true to its word. Fresh, delicate, light, harmonious in every sense of the word. Flavorful beyond flavor. The PoBoy was delicious, as the shrimp popped, the remoulade sauce incredible, tangy and sweet but not overpowering. The Jerk Chicken Mac-n-Cheese was the perfect pair between savory and succulence. Not too spicy, not too smoky, just enough of everything. The macaroni held up its half of the bargain as well. Currently planning my next experience here. Stay tuned.

Unfortunately, the experience was really disappointing because of the service. We were seated at a table without menus and left waiting for about 10 minutes, which felt like an eternity because the restaurant was extremely hot and there didn't seem to be any A/C running. Once someone finally came over, we ordered our drinks and the AYCE option. Our first round of food came out fairly quickly, but we weren't given any utensils, and our drinks didn't arrive until we were nearly finished with the first round. We ordered our second round as soon as our drinks arrived, but then waited another 40 minutes for the food. When we asked about it, our waitress seemed irritated and dismissive rather than apologetic or helpful. Because there is a posted 90-minute time limit for AYCE, by the time our second round arrived, we were understandably disappointed that we didn't have enough time to order a third round. The frustrating part is that the food itself was fresh and tasty. We really wanted to love this place, and it's unfortunate that the poor service overshadowed what could have been a great birthday dinner. We left with a bad taste--not because of the food, but because of the experience.
