Great food. Service took forever. Some punk kid was serving himself coffee and talking to his server girlfriend. That sucked. We could have been in and out but staff was distracted. read more

My mom and I love Debbie's restaurant...I haven't been back since before the Paradise fire due to I live in the bay area. I am so happy they reopened... Love their pancakes! read more

Welcome back. Ordered over the phone for the office. Food was warm and on time. Happy you are serving Paradise again.

This place is always good and consistent with regard to breakfast. Nothing super special about it but they make a good breakfast and their sausages are extra delicious. Nice to have a local place in town back open. read more

I had a Chicken Fried Steak Sandwich which was very good, but a bit dry. Good large portion. Delicious fries. My lovely wife had a Grilled Roast Beef Sandwich that was excellenr as well. Could have used a little mayonnaise. It was very similar to the discontinued Carls Jr California Roast Beef Sandwich. read more

Debbie's Restaurant - Chicken Fried Steak Sandwich - American Near Me - Paradise, California

Very down-homey feel to the restaurant (if 1980 and a country flea market had a baby...) but that adds to its charm. Amazing pancakes - they were huge, thin, and cooked to perfection. I could only eat half of my meal. Definitely worth repeating. read more

Debbie's Restaurant - Amazing pancakes. - American Near Me - Paradise, California

LOVE LOVE LOVE DEBBIE'S!! The staff is incredible, the food is amazing, the prices are as low as they can be with the cost of food as high as it is these days. Never once have I had a bad experience or had any food that wasn't the bomb! read more

Best Breakfast In Paradise! Good service, parking may look real busy when it's not. There is parking in back also. Home fries are perfect not greasy, great menu. Thanks for the good service read more

Never disappoints. Pancakes are so good and crispy edges are the best. Glad they are back and open in Paradise.

I love this place. The biscuits and gravy are awesome. Probably eat here about twice a week now. Most of the folks working there are super friendly. There is only one that seems to be bothered that she has guests. I look forward to not having her be our server, cause that is the only thing that dampers our visits. One day I will try something else other than the biscuits and gravy lol. read more

An absolute paradise classic and total original. Debbie's is worth the drive from anywhere. Let's support and I keep them going while we rebuild this town. read more

Great biscuits and gravy! Their super thin blueberry pancakes are one of a kind! My husband and I had our first breakfast date there in 2015, thankful they came back after the fire read more

Normally we love Debbie's, but lately they've been very slow. Getting there as their fifth table (others already having their food) we immediately ordered as we sat down. But after over 45 minutes of other tables walking in, ordering, and getting their food quickly we tried to signal a waitress to ask how much longer it would be but we're ignored so we had to go up to the counter and they said we were the next ticket. read more

Best pancakes in Butte County. Thin and chewy with a crispy edge. Food is always freshly prepared and served as ordered. Over-easy eggs come out as over-easy, not over-medium as in most restaurants. Always a treat to come here. read more

Debbie's Restaurant - American Near Me - Paradise, California

Came here walk in not one of the workers said a word to us. There was a place to put your name in we did still no word. Than they call our name. Most places I been too if there a child they bring Crayons and paper we had to ask. Our waitress had a attitude. We had our menu close she brought coffee and water than walk away. We had to wait for her to Come back. And when she took are order the Attitude came out again. Even made a comment about how she was running out of room on the tablet she was writing on. The food is good here especially the pancakes. I don't come here often cause I am A visitor to the area but it seem to me they need to work on there customer service. This is not the first time I seen bad customer service. read more

Some locals told us to try this place. It is so cute. Nice country feel, friendly waitress, and every table is filled so that says something. :). Definitely will come back since our doctors office is up here. read more

Yummm.... Eggs and potatoes = A very happy alli. Debbie's can be packed out on a weekend, which says a lot in this tiny town. Debbie's makes some killer breakfast items and the waitstaff is always really polite and helpful. Everytime I visit my parents I always make sure to visit this hidden gem. read more

Best pancakes, service, and country atmosphere. Thin pancakes is a specialty and the biscuits and gravy is fantastic. The staff was friendly, and the meal came quickly. They checked back often to insure that we had all that we needed. Worth the stop! read more

This place is great and also just celebrated their 30th anniversary.I went in for brunch with my family and the experience was fantastic, with good sized meals at a decent prices. I ordered the Debbie's special biscuits and gravy, it was to die for! The gravy is made each day from scratch with two pounds of bacon. I barely finished my meal of mouth watering biscuits and gravy, home style potatoes, two eggs over easy, and two good pieces of bacon. The service was great and the employees were very kind. I'd give it five thumbs up. read more

This is a Paradise original, get the pancakes you will not be disapointed. Staff is always friendly. THEY ONLY TAKE CASH OR CHECK! read more

After a couple year hiatus, we went back and overall a big improvement. Food was served hot, and was tasty. Service was much better also. Blueberry pancakes are crepe like and very flavorful. Really enjoyed them! We met friends here for brunch. Service was slow, then when food arrived everybody's was warmish, except my whole meal was cold, the butter wouldn't even melt on the pancakes. They took it back to re-cook me a new hot plate. Our table had almost finished their meal and mine hadn't come back yet. I told them to just cancel mine since everybody else was finishing. Just then they brought mine back out and left it. This one had a hot plate, but again the food wasn't warm enough for the butter to melt. We told them to take it back and I wasn't going to eat here, I'd figure something out. My husband had half a cold plate but didn't send his back. Overall, it was a huge disappointment. We will not be going back. read more

One word. Pancakes... Everything is good, pancakes are the best... Ambiance leaves to be desired but it is a breakfast dive, price is pretty decent, food is fast hot and service is always very pleasant! read more

They did all the little things right. Eggs cooked perfectly, English muffin not over buttered, pancakes didn't even need syrup. The service was great and the food was perfect. A rare find for Paradise. read more

"down-homey feel to the restaurant (if 1980 and a country flea market had a baby...) " Well said! Atmosphere alone is enough to keep me away. Literal definition of greasy spoon. read more

Best pancakes I've ever had. Iv'e been around to just a bout every place in paradise with pancakes either re-heated or like concrete or some other funkiness like forgetting to put enough baking powder in or none at all. A pancake ought to be like a ballet - light and fluffy and warmly flavorful. They are crispy and a bit thin like crapes but don't let that fool you. They are satisfying. I'm hooked! read more

Since moving to Paradise a year and a half ago, I can say I have now tried just about every place around here for breakfast. Nothing even comes close to Debbie's. The food is fresh, prepared correctly and the service is spectacular. Other reviewers have mentioned that sometimes the food here is to "plain". Well America, that's what happens when you're busy shoveling down grease soaked butter stuffed triple fried omelette's and hash-browns from the likes of Kalico Kitchen and Cozy Diner etc. Besides that the prices are really reasonable here compared to say Black Bear Diner, and the food is better, so it's a win win. So next time you need some more flavor, maybe lay off of the popular trans-fat swathed cooking of the 70's and 80's and come enjoy a FRESH consistent breakfast in a great atmosphere. read more

Old fashioned Quality. We Discovered the place just before the fire in 2018, we tried prior a couple of times, place was always packed. Now we know why! Quality!! read more

Good food, large portions, good customer service. I'm not usually a big fan of diner style restaurants, but I like this one.

Great pancakes. Country Benedict was great, too. Awesome hash browns!!

Great food, great service. Best pancake I've ever had. Hash browns perfect! Yummy biscuits and gravy. Homemade (not frozen) chicken fried steak. Yummy home fries. This place is amazing. Go here!!!! read more

See all

The manager is horrid, and doesn't like children apparently, so if you have kids dont bring them to eat with you here, you will get terrible service if you do. I recommend Donna's kitchen over Debbie's anyday! read more

For paradise this is one of the go to places for breakfast. I've not liked anything other than the blueberry pancakes. Their eggs and bacon are meh... but their pancakes are amazing. read more

Pancakes are soooo good! I try to do mine at home the same way but their never the same, plus I have to clean up the mess. Busy, but I've never waited more than 10 minutes to be seated. I love it! read more

As a breakfast connoisseur, I have tried literally EVERY single restaurant that serves breakfast in the area. Debbies is the best around and I found it right in my beloved town of Paradise. If you are not a resident, it is worth the drive. The pancakes are phenomenal. Thin and crisp. The hash browns are crisped to perfection and cooked to order. I've tried a lot of their menu items but in trying to take it slow. I will be eating at this restaurant as long as their doors remain open. Which hopefully is for a very long time. It doesn't get better. Ingredients are fresh, prices are fair, waitstaff is fast and friendly, and the food is crazy good. read more

Best f***ing pancakes I've ever had. You've got to give them a try! Decent prices and an awesome atmosphere!! Very friendly hard working, friendly, inviting people! Absolutely have to go here! Family friendly environment and deceptively filling pancakes. read more

I have seriously considered moving back to Paradise JUST so I could have Debbie's for breakfast every weekend... if you go there get pancakes or chicken fried steak. I have never found a restaurant that does these dishes better.... read more

Thai place is so great! The food is delicious and the staff is very friendly. The bacon gravy is the best I've ever had. You have to try this place! read more

Debbie's Restaurant - Debbie's breakfast. Biscuits & bacon gravy, scrambled eggs & hash browns. Sooooo tasty! - American Near Me - Paradise, California

Ordered a Denver omelet and added tomatoes. Saw a few pieces of ham (very few) and a couple pieces of tomatoes. Just assumed they would use cheddar cheese but it was covered inside and out with American cheese - yuk!! Would be nice if they let you know in advance if they're using fake cheese. I would say the omelets at Denny's are better. read more

This place has the best pancakes in the North State. I don't eat them anywhere else but Debbie's. Service can be slow, but it's worth the wait. Get there early or you will have to wait. Parking can be a bitch, but there is parking out back few know about. read more

BEST pancakes ever in my opinion!!! I have heard of some people who like super thick fluffy pancake not be satisfied with the ones at Debbie's as they are thin and crisp on the edges more like crepes, but that is exactly what I love about them so much; you can go anywhere and get the standard buttermilk pancakes - Debbie's is the only place you get these & I only get breakfast here when I go as I love it and it's what I go for, so cannot speak to any other menu items. Another plus for this place is the owner/staff are simply incredible people - extremely happy to hear they are back and have support to keep the doors open. Visiting this place is one thing I miss very much after moving away following the fire. Have not found food nor service as good as Debbie's any other place. Hope they stay strong and keep going many years to come & that they keep everything the same as before since visiting when I return to see dear friends in the area is a definite must on my to do list! Also in response to one post I noticed that was so/so regarding a wait and not being seated ... there is a sign (or at least always was in the past) instructing patrons to seat themselves ... anyhow, once seated service tends to be promptly incorporated to the rotation for the newly seated faces ... this is also the place where as a regular you're recognized and often your usual orders remembered too .... least in our experience over the many years our family enjoyed eating here read more
