    I met a new friend for breakfast. Kelly and Patricia were our servers. I had oatmeal with add-ons and my friend had a veggie omelet. The food and service was great.

    First of all, it's in a great location in the business district but it's so inconspicuous that if you blink, you'll miss it like we did. We drove around the block twice and finally saw it. When you enter, you're greeted by friendly staff. We waited on the stools to be seated and offered a drink as we waited. The wait was only 10 minutes. One of the owners, Christa, welcomed us in. She was hard at work helping her staff provide good service. We both ordered the Greek Omelette. The Greek Omelette was so delicious. It was light and fluffy. The feta cheese, olives, onions, little tomato bits were so fresh and perfectly cooked. We were very pleased with our Omelettes. It came with the most delicious, homemade biscuit. One of the best biscuits I've had in a long time. When I'm in the area, I will definitely come back to Geraldine's for a good old-fashioned breakfast. They also had good options for lunch.

    The service was friendly, our server was awesome, and the place has a lot of local charm, but it didn't quite land for us. My mom wasn't a fan of the food and didn't eat much of it. I thought it was okay. The coffee was weak and lacked flavor, though I did see a sign that says its ground in house, so that's cool. The scrambled eggs could use some love, and the country ham was really salty--great if that's your thing, though. The pancakes were yummy. The English muffins weren't really toasted. The food came out lukewarm. There was also some carpet on the wall next to us--interesting choice, though I imagine it's tough to clean. Overall, it felt like the food and space could use a little TLC. I probably wouldn't go back, but it seems like a beloved local spot, so maybe we just caught it on an off day.

    Excellent service, huge menu and great kid selections in a comfortable dining room. Don't miss this gem!

    Although there was a 25 minute wait for a table(Saturday) we were able to sit on the stools rather than stand. Once seated we were promptly served. Our drink orders were taken and our food came out in a reasonable amount of time. It's strictly breakfast and lunch fare as they close at 2 pm. It's nothing fancy but it was filling and really reasonably priced. It's a cute little local place(my oldest daughter enjoyed the ambiance) and had that throwback diner vibe. It's located a block away from the main downtown street(Spring Street) and free street parking is available.

    Locally owned and operated! Clean, cozy atmosphere with fantastic pure Americana breakfast dishes. Wait staff were friendly and relaxing. The biscuits and gravy made this southern man smile! The pancakes are fluffy in the middle with that little hint of crispy on the side. If you're looking for a down-home diner with good food your grandma served.... This is it.

Wife ordered a mango margarita and doesn't like a lot of tequila, so Kylie went half and gave her a shot on the side in case she wanted to add more. It was wonderful. I had a couple of beers. We started with the fried mushrooms, which aren't what you would expect. It's two large portobellos cut into chunks, battered, fried, and served with sun-dried tomato mayo. They were great. I then ordered a duck taco, brisket taco, and a side of Grippo Fries with smoked mayo. I'd never tried duck but that taco was smack-a-lackin'. The brisket taco was also good, and the fries were fantastic - sweet and spicy, fresh cut, and crispy. Wife ordered a pork belly slider and truffle fries. She enjoyed the slider but didn't care for the fries - just not her thing. The portions here are large. A side of fries will feed three people. We took a hefty portion of them home, as well as some of the mushrooms. We could've sat there at the bar and spent 3 hours socializing and enjoying a smattering of cocktails - love the setting.

Unique flavors and preparations artfully presented with wonderful wine pairings. Each course was phenomenal and had over a dozen diners doing the requisite "ooooh" and "ahhhh". However, if I was forced to commit to the standout items for me, it would be: (1) the delectable pork collar that defied comprehension with how it had a sweet crunchy exterior bark yet maintained a moist and tender bite as we dug in, (2) the soft shell stuffed crab on a bed of just perfect mustard greens with a crunchy texture, (3) dessert that mimicked a cloud and included coffee "gummies" and also was paired with a delicious sherry that held its own. I felt like I needed a cigarette after this meal. I don't smoke. It was That Mind Blowing. These collaboration dinners will be held for at least the next 2 months.

Each meal also had a variety of textures that complemented each other, as well as opposite flavors that checked off each taste, bud.
