no accountability. Asked for manager. They did not want to deal with any issue complaints.

The servers were kind and prompt. We ordered biscuits and gravy I.e the stacker, a shipwreck (like a skillet meal), and cheeseburgers for the kids. We also tried the cinnamon roll. All food was good. They were incredibly busy on Sunday so we waited a while but staff kept checking in with us to make sure we knew it was coming and filled drinks. Great job to the two cooks who worked hard to feed everyone. read more

Heather is by far the best waitress you'll ever come across! Best breakfast in the Cedar Rapids area, and reasonably priced as well! Make time to check this local business out, you won't be disappointed! read more

This is our go to breakfast spot. We Love "The Stacker". The staff very friendly and welcomes you in like family. This place has become our family weekend ritual read more

Stopped i for breakfast for the first time. We sat ourselves at a table. The waitress brought water asked if we wanted coffee and we declined but we weren't asked if we wanted other items to drink. We had to get up and ask for the beverages we wanted. The server was an older lady and she was very short with us. She was not warm and inviting. We placed our order and waited for 5 minutes. She brought out our food and quickly tossed the food on the table, when we mentioned that a side of sausage was missing for our one son, she said he didn't order it! Um yes he did and she didn't apologize nor bring any out for him. The food was so so. My kids had chocolate chip pancakes and they said they were so so. My husband and I both had a shipwreck and they were ok. We both like our potatoes to not mash up, they should be crispy. Cheese on top was melted Kraft singles! I won't go back on count of the service. No one was warm or welcoming. There was a feeling like we were being a bother by just being there and we were not a high maintenance. I've been a server before and I know that in this industry you work for your tip, you should treat every customer like a food critic. I could teach the staff some customer service. read more

Nothing fancy here, just good old fashioned American cafe/diner food in a classic small corner mom n pop package. fluorescent lights and small tables along with a four seat bar with an older crowd for breakfast is what you can expect here. The food is standard diner flat-top fare served pretty fast by servers who've seen it all. only had breakfast here but i assume lunch service is about the same. Don't expect anything fancy and you won't be disappointed. read more

Ever see that show "Drivers, Dine-Ins and Dives?" Well, this place should be on it. It's nothing fancy, just a home grown diner that serves good, inexpensive food. It's a typical menu, all homemade and nothing incredibly fancy. But it's GOOD, guys. Looking for a flat-top fare diner? Come here.. Looking for a nice laughing lady to fill your cup with coffee? Come here. You won't be disappointed. read more

I travel a lot for work and eat all over the place. There seems to be pretty slim pickings in Cedar Rapids. I finished with a customer early and thought after reading the reviews last night that I would try this place out. I had a Western omelette and some coffee so not a lot to write about. What I can say is, the people were nice, the service was good, the food was tasty and the price was very reasonable. read more

Great veggie omelet and yummy cinnamon French toast, all of which my husband and I shared. Even tho it was packed on a Sunday morning, we found a table immediately and were served in a timely manner by an efficient, friendly waitress, the sister of the owner-cook. Since we travel in a 25' motor home, we really appreciated the large parking lot which easily accommodated our RV. Highly recommend this place! read more

HORRIBLE. Let me preface this by saying that I am 6 month pregnant, so when I'm hungry I'm hungry. We got seated at a both for 2 immediately. We received our drinks and placed our food order. Our food order was hash browns, one pancake and an omelet. An hour went by, we weren't checked on ONCE, we watched people who arrived after us eat and leave. The place is tiny and our waitress had walked past us many, many times without acknowledging us at all. After more than an hour I finally went up to the counter to say that we were still waiting. No one said a word to me, but they did start scrambling around. My boyfriend threw a dollar on the table and when we started to leave our waitress wouldn't even look at us, say sorry, etc. I don't know if our ticket was lost or what, but at least try to make it right and APOLOGIZE for your f up. What the other one star review said about no accountability is absolutely correct. The place is pretty filthy. BOO to this place. read more

We have been eating shipwrecks there for many, many years. We brought our children and are now introducing our 3 (under 2 yrs old) grandsons to our family tradition.....the food is incredible and the nicest family owned business we know. from the Lee family read more

Definitely gives you the feel of the old home town diner. Good food and great wait staff. Large portions.

We have been searching for a very long time for good breakfast food in Cedar Rapids and surrounding areas. Honestly the best breakfast dishes in town! Their pancakes are delicious. We've been here several times for breakfast and have yet to have anything on the menu that isn't great. Would definitely recommend. read more

The staff is friendly and accommodating. Our family is not big on pork and they had turkey bacon. Also medium size portions. Average on taste. But I do recommend it. I have been there 2 times and will go back. Fast service as well. read more

I've been here several times, and I've enjoyed my meal each time. It's never been too busy when I've come in, and is usually very quiet. Their food is delicious. The pancakes are huge. Servers are usually pretty friendly. Food comes out really fast. read more

I was in Omaha and Cedar Rapids on business a few weeks back and had lunch at Mikhael's. It was very good, it was just what I was looking for. Great service and the price was just right. Don M read more

Mikhael's is the definition of a mom and pop diner to me, and has been my go to breakfast place for years. They serve great basic breakfast staples quickly and at a very reasonable cost. They recently (within the last few years) remodeled and added a touch of non-traditional items to the menu, which each one I've sampled has been great, from my personal favorite the 'Stacker' breakfast (biscuits, eggs, american fries, sausage all smothered with gravy) to the gyro omelette. The portions are huge for the cost and you won't leave hungry or wanting for conversation, as the family that runs the place (father and son on the grill, mother coming around checking on tables and refilling coffee) will make you feel at home. Cannot recommend this place enough for a great quality and quick breakfast or lunch. read more

Awesome breakfast!!! Try the granberry pancake it is delicious (granola, blueberries, cinnamon). The lumberjack breakfast is huge and delicious. I thoughly enjoyed the home made corned beef and hash. The pumpernickel toast went perfect with it. My daughter loved the cinnamon French toast. Family run restaurant, that is clean and friendly. We will definitely be back. read more

Four of us had breakfast here after going to the St Ludmila's Fall Bazaar and getting their amazing kolaches. Not only is their food delicious and reasonably priced, but the family who owns this establishment make you feel at home right away and have a wonderful sense of humor. We had such an enjoyable breakfast and will definitely be back. I had an omelette and breakfast potatoes, which were very good. 11/8/14 read more

This is a little gem. Went there last weekend with a friend. Endless cup of coffee. Friendly service. Didn't have to wait long for food. It is a small place with outdated decode, but clean and welcoming. Bacon was great, along with the french toast. The greek omelet was tasty and the hash browns were perfect. Plenty of parking. read more

Food is very home like, I like that. However if the wait staff is having a bad day, you will know it. Not only will they talk about it behind the counter, it will show when they bring your food or take your order. All in all this place is great for breakfast and has space to move around the tables. read more
