Apologies for the length of this review, but there's a lot to unpack here…read more So, l had heard about OVG awhile ago from an absolute stranger who said LARGE portions, fair prices, great grub. On my radar. Well, Air Traffic Control safely landed this plane earlier today. The stranger, however, was wrong... the portions were XXL, prices seemed like a rollback to 10 years ago, and the food was very great (greater than great??). Couple things first. Cash only. Open four days / wk (Thursday thru Sunday) from 6 til 2. Parking situation ok. Not an overly large dining area, but adequate early afternoon today. Also, quite a few specials which were hard to turn down, but... out of the corner of my eyeball I detected a menu entree of 3 eggs, home fries, toast, AND a choice of two meats (out of bacon, sausage, ham, and hash) for $11.99. Sold! My outstanding server, Ellen, asked "how do you want your eggs?", "what two meats?" "patties or links?", "what kind of toast?", "do you want onions with the home fries?", and away she went. Food came back (from the open kitchen) very quickly. I could not believe the amount of grub piled on my plate. There were 4 sausage links... and not those flimsy ones.. these were large ones that I'm accustomed to, growing up in NY. Rye toast was thick cut from a regional bakery. It didn't melt in my mouth...it dissolved. Eggs were perfectly cooked, HFs lightly seasoned, and just right. Generous portion of CBH, nice and hot. Coffee also very good, and Ellen and Melissa kept it coming. Both were outstanding and personable. Two cooks (one of which is Steve, owner for past 14 yrs), two servers, and dishwasher / pots & pans scrubber make it all happen. It's a good thing I traded in my 6-pack abs for my 6-gallon repository that serves as the 1st stop thru my body's digestive travels. An "unabelly" would not be large enough. BTW, Steve said OVG goes through about 120 to 150 dozen eggs / wk. So, using 135 dz as average, that's about 400 eggs /day. Local hens are exhausted; and, although they won't admit it, roosters as well. Great place. If you're looking for a romantic setting, go elsewhere. If you want a nice, homey setting that the local cops would recommend, come here. 5 stars, and only because Yelp doesn't allow for more! Next time...the "steak bomb"!

Portions are huge and everything we tried was fantastic. We had Irish Benedict, a Mississippi omelet, and we split a pancake bigger than my head. The potatoes are seasoned super well and are absolutely perfectly cooked. You can get them with or without the grilled onions. I had them with, and hubby had them without. Their corned beef hash is one of my favorites, and I have Irish Benedict a lot! We will definitely stop in next time we are in town. They are cash only, so don't forget to stop at the ATM on the way.

My family got the steak and duck, they said it was awesome. The bao buns were fantastic, each bite was like a cloud In your mouth. The Jalapeno poppers were mild but a lot of good flavor. The staff were nice and personable. The service was really good, with the jalapeno poppers out first then the bao buns came. I also got the choclate cake for desert, it was creamy like a cheese cake with some homemade whipped cream and a strawberry slice. I will come again soon, thanks for the great experience

New waitresses were very cordial.

The meal I received (Eggs Benedict Florentine, a regular menu item) was not what I ordered (Tara's Benedict, on the specials menu), but by then I was so hungry that I just ate it. It was good. However, after a runner delivered our food, our waitress never checked in with us, or even made eye contact with us, until we were done eating. When she finally came, I told her (politely) that I had ordered Tara's Benedict but had received Florentine. She seemed to not know what to do with this information - but she did want me to know that she correctly submitted my order. Okay, I said, I just wanted to let you know that there was a miscommunication somewhere. She brought us our bill promptly (the incorrect meal was not taken off the bill), but then there was more waiting for her to come back and take our credit card. Finally my dining companion went up to the register to pay the bill. While there, they tried to explain to him what happened - apparently the chef had a different specials list than the specials menu that was given to customers. This does not really explain the mix-up. Plus, it was 11am on a Saturday - near the end of the breakfast period. How did they not realize sooner that the chef and the wait staff had different specials menus? This establishment is a little off the beaten path; you have to make it a destination - something I will not be doing again.

Good spot for breakfast…read more Initially wanted to go to The Duck but they were closed for renovations. Cedar Street Grill was full and they recommended coming here. So had a party of five and they were able to accommodate us in the back room by putting a couple tables together, where were not flush but oh well. The back was fine because we had a three month old with us so worked out well. Food was good. Sister had a wrap. Brother had the three little pigs. I had a breakfast burger. I asked for the home fries to be crispy and they made them that way. Wish my egg was more cooked as I asked over medium. Bacon was crispy too Service was good too.

Place is clean but rundown and smells. Although it's non smoking, they allow people to smoke tabaco and marijuana in the interior common areas. Smell proliferates everywhere. Julie behind the desk is rude, inappropriate, unprofessional, and racist. Although there were more than 6 dogs staying at the place (one barked non stop and another pooped in the hall), Julie decided it was my trained service dog with no proof. Most likely because I was the only non white person with a service dog. She went as far as telling me that my dog is a comfort dog and not a service animal. She refused to see the documents I offered as back up. She also crossed the line when she approached the event organizer of the event I was there for to ban me from future events. Extremely unprofessional and inappropriate. I wish this annual event would move elsewhere that is not as decade, decrepit, and had professional hospitality people.

There are no restaurants everything is falling down and looked closed for past decade . There is no hot tub, the paddle boats are in a pile and dock is falling down. Everything is literally dirty and broken from hall ceilings and walls to the bathrooms and rooms , pool area you name it . You look out the window and see piles of garbage. This place was probably a great once but it is way passed it hay day . It was not cheap and I was hoping to get a little vacation so I was pretty upset. I could barley sleep room was so dirty, bed so uncomfortable and smelled, The only upside was the lady at the front desk was an absolute pleasure.

Lunch was a Palmer classic. it was also dinner. Thia generous burger is topped with fresh lettuce and tomato and crispy thick bacon and fried pickles to give it flavor. No condiments necessary as the flavor packs a punch from the fresh ingredients. the chicken Caesar wrap was also a home run with plenty of chicken and just enough croutons and dressing. The garlic Parm fries or house made chips are a great touch to set this little breakfast/lunch place apart from any typical place. The friendly service makes you feel like a regular even if you are from out of town! We will be back next time we visit Palmer.
