Fresh ingredients, fast and friendly service and very reasonable prices!…read more I come here very often for lunch during the week. It's my go-to place for a healthy alternative to some of the other heavy, indulgent sandwich places in DT Syracuse. All of their menu items are customizable without unreasonable add-on prices. The indoor and outdoor seating is great when I have time to sit down too. There is enough space in the front for a small group (5-6) but most of their seating is for 2-4 people. Every once and awhile I treat myself to their homemade cookies! They are always worth the extra calories!

My kids and I ended up here after trying another diner that was so busy there was no parking. We…read morewere able to find parking, and 15-20 minutes wait list. They were swamped so the short wait seemed unlikely. But in fact we were seated and provided menus and waters. This is a classic no frills diner. Retro feel with large diner menu selection. I had a combination platter that was huge, bagel egg and cheese, steak and eggs, and we shared a waffle drizzled with chocolate and cinnamon. Everything was tasty and came out in a timely manner. Friendly service, getting the bill and boxes at the end of meal was a bit of a lull. But for a holiday it was overall very accommodating with no reservations! They offer a full diner lunch menu as well.

Went in for a late breakfast (11ish), to a busy little place yet there were a few tables open and…read morewe were seated immediately. Clean place, terrific servers ( thanks Amy!), fun menu. We went savory this time: breakfast burrito and steak-n-eggs. My wife had iced coffee and I ordered coffee with cream. Amy questioned my order and wanted to make sure I wanted coffee with cream. I said, " Yes, absolutely " She brought me coffee with whipped cream. We had a good laugh over my deafness and apparent mumbling. Meals arrived quickly: burrito was big but not imposing. Very yummy, Steak was of low quality and thin , which is always a cook's challenge to prepare. Nothing special but adequate. Eggs were perfect and the sourdough toast was extra delicious. All made for a satisfying meal at a good price ( given prices are elevated everywhere these days). Highly recommend a stop here .

This is a six star restaurant…read more We are traveling through Syracuse and Wake Up will be a regular stop when we're on road trips. This place is incredible. The service was very friendly and fast. We got our order to go, and as items are ready, someone brought them out to us rather than placing them on the counter for us to pick up. Side note: the restroom is extremely clean and smells nice.

Finally made it to try their banh mi and coffee out, I don't get to downtown often but I was down…read morethe road running errands. I found parking right away on the street, they have two entrances. It was pretty spacious as you walk in, it was easy to order. I ordered the roasted pork belly for a few bucks more at $13, all the other sandwiches were $10. The sandwich was delicious but I wished the pickled veggies had more bite to them to balance the sandwich out. Also there were more of the veggies than meat. I tasted the pork belly by itself and it was good. My daughter and I really enjoyed the bread(perfect texture outside and inside), I know they make them in house. As for coffee I went with an iced Saigon classic. It was decent nothing crazy about it. Overall it wasn't bad, I didn't have to wait long even with a few orders ahead of me. I don't know, it's good to try if you haven't to compare to other spots but for me I wouldn't go out my way to get it again.

E.A.T. is the third breakfast spot for Dave & Marty Richardson. They own the Nestico's Too diner in…read moreFairmount and the nearby Rise & Grind cafe. They also own Chelsea's Restaurant & Bar located across the parking lot from E.A.T., at the corner of Velasko Road. This 1,600-square-foot café is a cross between their full-size diner and the coffee shop. A counter stretches the length of the front windows with tall stools and plenty of charging stations for electronics. The dining room also has eight tables that each seat four customers. My wife and I met some friends at E.A.T. for the first time recently. It's a nicely decorated cafe, plenty of parking lot spaces available. We were able to easily get a table for 5. We all placed our orders, which were brought quickly. I ordered the chicken & waffles special, while my wife ordered the country biscuit dish. The chicken & waffles was said to have a hot honey maple syrup, but there was no heat to the syrup at all. The chicken was chicken tenders, which was fine, but they did not have a very good texture - they were somewhat rubbery and full of tendon. My wife enjoyed her biscuits, but her, and the rest of the table, agreed that their home fries were undercooked and grainy. We also tried their Lucky Charms special latte, which was good. Prices were decent, employees were mostly friendly. Not sure it's a place we would go out of our way to give another try.

Not my first time at EAT but I figured it was time for a review!…read moreThis place is super convenient nearby my work. Hours are from 7-1 most days I love love love the ambiance of this little cafe. They always have some relaxing music playing and the interior design feels so groovy! I'm a big fan of Recess coffee, this cafe uses the same coffee so they're winning in my book already. Plenty of flavor choices to choose from with a pretty extensive breakfast/lunch menu as well. Today I got an iced latte with marshmallow. Their marshmallow flavoring is closer to a toasted marshmallow and I think it compliments the espresso well. I usually get a bacon, egg, and cheese on a croissant. But today went out of my typical order and got their special Breakfast tacos! And I loveddd them! The pancakes were soft, I enjoyed the mix of sausage bits and pepperoni bits, the eggs were scrambled. I hope they keep them on the menu for a while longer so I can get them again If you've got a few extra dollars, I suggest trying them out!

I love Christian's amazing recipes and he puts ingredients together like a magician. Sometimes I just need something simple and I know my food is going to be great.

The room was full of very happy people talking, eating and enjoying their food.

Decided we'd ask to sit at the breakfast bar and the nice gentleman grabbed us waters and juices right away and waitress took our order shortly after. Glad we stuck it out. We both had the TMR which came with 2 eggs, choice of meat, home fries, waffle, and sausage and biscuits. I had Canadian bacon (2 slices) added onion to my home fries which were crispy and delicious the other was the same except regular bacon (8 slices). Price was great for the quality and amount of food. Gets busy and noisy but very good. Casual atmosphere a bit less noisy at the breakfast bar. Nice clean homey place. We enjoyed and took half the food home!

On late Friday afternoon it was not busy but a few tables were taken. I asked about my favorite eggs Benedict to make sure they use Canadian bacon and not deli ham! I've had it served with deli ham before and it's a travesty it is served with Canadian bacon. When it was served it was such a beautiful plate and the taste was amazing! The eggs cooked perfectly the sauce was tangy and smooth. The potatoes were real cut up ones that were grilled and spiced perfectly (personally I hate those deep fried frozen ones). Altogether I was really pleased with my me. An added bonus was great service and decent prices.

There are certain things by which I judge a restaurant's suitability for me. One thing I look for…read morein a breakfast/lunch eatery is their bisquets and gravy. Another is their home fries. At Long Last knocked booth of those out of the park. The best c&b I can ever recall eating, and excellent home fries. The fries were unique to my experience. They were a generous portion of small potatoes, sliced and fried to perfection. My companions decided upon breakfast sandwiches. A ham and cheese bagel for one lady and a steak and cheese bagel for the other. Both came with scrambled eggs on the sandwich, and one lady had peppers and onions (steak) on hers. Both proclaimed their fare to be excellent. Service was prompt, courteous, and efficient. The staff members were very helpful. The foʻd came quickly and was served piping hot. You'll be pleased with the open layout and total cleanliness of this restaurant. If it's brunch for you, an assortment of stylized coffees and alcoholic beverages are available. The menu is e x t e n s i v e! You'll find what you want and enjoy it in a relaxed atmosphere. The prices are average for the area. There are many places to dine in the Skaneateles/Auburn area, but I'm eating here. Enjoy!

This place is such a wonderful addition to the Auburn breakfast scene!…read moreWe came in around 9:40 on a Sunday. There weren't any tables but we were fine sitting at the bar. The Dubai chocolate latte had a wonderful pistachio flavor to it. There wasn't as much cream/ foam as most lattes that I've had, but it was still tasty. The avocado toast was a lot larger/ filling than I thought it would be. The balsamic drizzle was perfect on it and the bread was excellent. We loved the flavor of the gravy on the biscuits and gravy. Again, generous portion and the biscuits were nice and flaky. The Dutch Apple French toast was a great recommendation from the bar tender. I love the cinnamon in the bread and it was all not too sweet... definitely did not need the optional maple syrup. The ambience is fresh and light and the service was pleasant. Would love to return!
