    Chicken and Dumplings
    Keith W.

    Friends is a great diner with an expansive menu. They serve both breakfast and lunch. One of the best places to get chicken and dumplings. Great food and great service.

    Food was good but we had a dirty glass and two hairs in my food! Will try this restaurant again-perhaps it was just a bad day?

    Chicken tenders, I ask for grilled and for fried as I had not tried these before. The fried were the best.

    Antilogy nailed brunch from the first sip to the last bite…read more We started with Bloody Marys. Our server asked if we wanted them spicy. We said yes, and she delivered. The cocktail actually had some heat, and the glass was rimmed with Everything Bagel Seasoning. I'd never had that before. It was a tasty touch. The candied bacon garnish was divine. We ended up ordering a second round. The Jalapeño Deviled Eggs are outstanding. Smooth and creamy, topped with jalapeño and candied bacon. Every bite was a pleasure. For entrees, I got the Bourbon Jalapeño Shrimp. It had a light kick and tasted incredible. My husband ordered the Rise & Shine Chicken Biscuit. It was all tasty, but that biscuit was fluffy and salty, exactly how a good biscuit should be. Our server made the whole meal. She was friendly and patient with me even though I was having more trouble than usual deciding what to order. She also mixed our Bloody Marys, so she was working double duty and doing it well. The space strikes a balance between sophisticated and casual, so you can dress up or keep it relaxed and feel comfortable either way. We'll definitely be back!

I know this because we were seated right next to the bar and she was asking another lady how to make it. This is supposedly a Bourbon bar and you don't know how to make a Manhattan? They totally served it in a martini glass and without ice (supposed to have one large cube). I had to take ice from my water glass and add to the drink. It was Meh. Our young waitress then rang in the wrong order for me. They brought out our food and my order was totally something else. She immediately said "that was my bad" and had to go change it. I waited while my wife ate her food. Of course there was no offer to discount our meal at all. We have eaten here over a dozen times and this was just terrible. Come on Antilogy, hire competent people. You can do better than this.

This place has a variety of fresh drinks and also a variety for the menu. I ordered the menudo and the soup was great. I also got 2 steak tacos and 1 pork taco. Also known as tacos de asada 2 and 1 pastor. They of course were delicious fast and hot on the stove. The homemade salsa Verde was a little more coarse then I typically like as it was not that spicey so it was good. Kids got the micky mouse pancakes and they were fully and thr kids ate them all the bacon was crispy too. Last item was chilaquiles hot yummy added steak to ours and just great. The service was fast and on point. With a medium noise level for ambiance. If you wanting to try a new breakfast place come here and give it a shot.

The restaurant itself is fine, your pretty standard strip mall diner vibe but with a Hispanic flair. The music is unobtrusive and it's easy to carry a conversation. The major problem we had was that the kitchen must've been understaffed because food was taking about an hour to come out even for the neighboring tables. The place did die down around 1pm which is when we were leaving so I would definitely recommend coming during off-peak hours. Food: Fresh squeeze OJ - love pulpy OJ and this had tons of it but the oranges just weren't quite at peak ripeness. 3/5 Pastor skillet - The skillet had good flavor with crispy potatoes, avocado, pineapple bits, and nice amount of eggs. The pastor unfortunately had quite a few gristly pieces that really detracted from the experience. 4/5 Tlacoyo - A classic central Mexican dish. It's a stuffed corn patty kind of like a pupusa which is more tortilla like. You can add nopales which is cactus and tastes like green bell peppers and a protein which I added asada steak to mine. I would recommend adding both to make it a nice filling meal. I got half-half red and green sauces as well and they're both delicious, pick green if you want mild and red if you like spicy. Definitely the winner of the meal here. 5/5 Overall, this place serves mid-tier food with great Hispanic twists on your traditional breakfast/brunch options. The salsas and proteins have authentic flavor although some higher quality cuts of meat would level this place up a bit. I would give this place another try but would definitely come at non-peak hours or a weekday if possible.

It's rare to find a spot that balances efficiency with such a welcoming vibe, but they've hit the sweet spot.

All the food was good, hot and tasty. My guests said the pancake was a bit firm and found the biscuits to be similar. Not light and fluffy but still good. Home fries are standard potatoes from Gordon food service or similar. Coffee was nonstop and good. Servoce was quick but they didn't mind if people hung out. The restaurant filled up one side of the building while we were there on a Friday morning for about 90 min. Eggs were cooked correctly on the breakfast bowl. Brioche sammy could have use a touch more pesto aioli but was good and i took half home. Would meet again for breakfast and they have several locations. Parking is super easy at this local due to strip mall. We walked it off at the nearby Sam's club afterwards. Would recommend for a hearty breakfast done well

The portion sizes were enough for two meals! The fries were seasoned well, hot and crispy and the grilled cheese had a wonderful flavor. Adding pesto and tomato really elevates this comfort food.
