A Nostalgic Return That Still Hits Right This place used to be one of my favorites back in high school, and I hadn't been in a while. With everything going on and spending a lot of time at the hospital with my daughter, I decided to stop in for a little nostalgia. And I'll say this -- it delivered. The staff was friendly, but not overbearing. It gave me that old-school Mayberry feel -- like you know your waitress, she's kind, warm, maybe reminds you of an auntie... but you also know not to push her too much . It felt familiar in a good way. Now, I'll be honest -- the only thing that stood out to me was the lettuce in my salad had a little browning on it. That's just a personal thing for me. It didn't affect the flavor, and it wasn't bad enough to ruin the experience or drop the rating, but it's worth mentioning. The biggest challenge here is the hours -- they can be a little hit or miss, so you've got to plan ahead if you want to catch them open. I've never tried their pies, which I hear they're known for. I'm just never in the mood for pie when I go. So if you try one, let me know how it is. Overall, it was a good return visit. If you're looking for something with a little character and a touch of nostalgia, give it a try and see what you think. read more

I've gone two times in the last month with a party of three and each time there was no wait to sit. The staff was very kind and attentive to our tables needs. The food came rather quickly, was hot and delicious. I personally had the waffle. It was just right with crispy edges and a soft center in the middle. I would highly recommend this as a food option. The only turnoff was the homeless guy sitting in the front of the door, that everyone just seemed to walk past. He didn't beg for money, but sitting right next to the entrance had me a little on edge. Other than that, I would definitely visit this place again. read more

There was no wait time for seating. The tables are out dated but the booths were reupholstered. We both ordered the Doc's Omelet, one with fruit and the other with crispy Hash browns. The food was served heat hot with lots of flavor. We enjoyed the meals. read more

Ok so I was very reluctant to coming here due to its history but husband wanted to try it so I braved it. First impression was pleasant with a welcoming hello from the person at the register. We were seated right away although the very short time we were standing waiting to be seated was greated 3 times by different people acknowledging our presence. You can tell right away this is their "usual" spot for many elderly locals. Maybe they offer a senior discount? It had that home feel and sound aa people were coming and going. The menu -- nothing special - very traditional comfort food :) that fills the hungry belly but the service was really good. Our person was Shawana - middle aged Caucasian woman that didnt smile once HOWEVER her body language was friendly, attentive and honesty - comforting :) Kinda like how an Auntie will try to feed you when you come visit. The place was CLEAN and dirty tables were quickly turned over. The gentleman bussing the table was friendly to the costumers as well. Saw many pleasing interactions. Thank you for having us! read more

Ordered online - incomplete order no option for refund on recorded call. Charged for item I did not receive.

I found this joint on my birthday as I was out of town and visiting my brother in Sac. This one was the closest to our rental and looked like a promising American breakfast place. It's not fancy or anything like that so good to stop by and have a delicious meal. It was also fairly clean.. they had a woman cleaning while we were there. The waitress was sweet and we were seated fairly quickly. Pricing is reasonable and there is plenty of seating. It's an older looking restaurant but def did the trick for my family and I. The waitress also blessed my kids w a sundae which was great. There was a mistake on my order but honestly I did not mind. She corrected and brought my food quickly. I wouldn't mind returning if I am ever in the area again. They also accommodate large parties. While we were leaving I believe a party of 20 came in. We left right on time! lol read more

Service waited over 10mins to be seated.Come all the time. Always come to get quiet time.

This was a standard breakfast restaurant. The food got the job done breakfast-wise but it was nothing to rave home about. I had the French Connection which came with French toast, eggs, canned peaches, and bacon or sausage (or you can do half and half). My food was fine but it didn't stand out for me to purposely return eating here. I liked that there was a diverse menu and the kids entree was huge. Service was a little slow for a weekday but our waitress was friendly. read more

Where has this place been all my life? Ok, a bit melodramatic, but good breakfast at a restaurant is one of my favorite meals to go out for...and Sacramento is severely lacking in that department. This is very old school....we went after my wife's doctors appointment, and we were probably the youngest people there. Nothing wrong with that, as it was 9:00 am on a weekday morning. Old school generic American restaurant vibe (and again, not said as a negative). Now, then, onto the food... I ordered way too much. I was hungry, and as previously mentioned, loved to try out new (to me) breakfast places. On a recommendation from our amazing server, I ordered the chicken fried steak and eggs, with a side of "tiny" (not really) pancakes. My wife ordered sausage and eggs. The eggs were scrambled perfectly, but...the chicken fried steak was pretty incredible. It stayed hot for so long, as well. I wish the pancakes had been a little warmer, but oh well. Her sausages were just as good (to her), and we left with full bellies (and too much food left on the table). Sadly, over the next few weeks, we will be in this area many mornings for medical appointments, but the good news is I believe we found our new breakfast spot. read more

Been coming for 50 years. Stop most any time I am in Sac. The value, the food and the service won't make it another 10 let alone 50 years. They call a regular waffle a Belgian waffle. Big difference. When I mentioned it the server was grumpy about it. It is a great old cafe feel. But likely won't stop next time. read more

Went today with hubby for brunch. The waitress saw us but took a turn to greet the seated customers. After 5 minutes, we were told to pick a table, and she'll give us the menu later. After placing our order and delivering our food, waitress NEVER came back to check on us. We needed refills and I was missing my toasts. I was so thirsty I was eating the ice. When checking out, same waitress closely watched me to see if I left a tip. Needless to say, I left no tip. I've dined at Mr. Perry's before and this was the first time I've had an awful experience. read more

0 stars. The food was awful today. My eggs were supposed to be over medium and they were so runny they weren't even over easy. My waffle had a sour taste as if the batter had been left out all day. We were there at 2:30 p.m. my daughter french toast tasted like it had some kind of spice on it, maybe tumeric. And now they set their tables with serving spoons - so incorrect. I don't want to stir My coffee with a huge serving spoon. It's been like this for a while but I've finally given up hope. To the owner - SELL TO SOMEONE THAT KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE DOING. And fire your cook.​ read more

Came in to Mr.Perrys with my husband around 10am today.. we ordered Doc Omelette (without zucchini) and 10 dollar stack pancakes with berries. I would rate the omelette 5/5 and the pancakes 3.5/5 because of the fruit (wasn't fresh, kinda soggy) Overall service was fast and our server was great checked in with us multiple times while dining. read more

Found this place thru instagram, someone reviewed it . Decided to pop in . First of our service was TRASH. Before I continue I would like to say I have worked in the service industry from fine dining in Monterey to Chili's in Stockton ca ... I'm not expecting too much from an old school type diner ... but - we weren't greeted or seated We had to wave a woman down and then she told us to sit where ever, it's pretty big so we chose an area that already had patrons in it , BIG MISTAKE apparently her and the other server who was helping the table next to us have some issues. Tension was heavy ! We tried to ask open ended questions and she wasn't really helping ... which is understandable if you're quiet or shy , but definitely not if you're in service and sales ... we wanted to try so much . Bummer . I really wanted to like this place . The food came out fast ... wasn't what I expected maybe that's a me issue. I know they have cameras there maybe the owners of the establishment can watch and see how much customer service and hospitality is lacking at this establishment. The ambiance could be so much better with just a positive attitude ! read more

I really miss the diners in New York City. Mr. Perry's came up when I searched "diners" so it was time to give them a try. We got here about 7:50am on Friday morning. It was quiet with few customers. The parking lot was empty with handful of cars. We were greeted right away and the server told us to sit anywhere we like. The menu is extensive but we wanted breakfast. We went for the "Sunrise Specials" which was served every day from 6-8am for $7.99. Woah, I think McDonald's big breakfast cost more than that. I got the Pancake Breakfast, which came with one pancake, two eggs any style, one bacon strip or one sausage link, hashed browns or country potatoes. It wasn't a huge portion but a good amount of food for me. I couldn't finish it. Everything tasted okay. The eggs and bacon tasted good. I didn't care for the hash browns. It wasn't crispy or browned like I had hoped for. The pancakes was like something that came from a box that you make at home. It wasn't bad - it was very generic! The place can use some updating and refresh. Server was nice. She took our orders quickly, food came out in about 15 minutes and we were out the door under 50 minutes. Great value if you have a tight budget. read more

Went there today no cars and sign said closed. When if ever will it open? It is wheelchair friendly

Haven't been here in forever! I was in town and was craving brunch foods so decided to take my siblings here. Three people and no wait! It looks like they renovated the inside so it looks a lot more modern with their booths. Food is still the same! I ordered the eggs Benedict - Hollandaise sauce is bomb! My sister ordered the eggs and ribeye which came with toast or biscuits and she chose the biscuit and really enjoyed it. My brother ordered the country fried steak which he said was okay. Price is average to a little higher per entree but I think service is good and they are really nice here. They are a little understaffed as it looked like our waitress was the only once waiting on all the tables but nonetheless, it was a good experience overall. read more

Great food, we went the night before Thanksgiving, very low key, no crowds. We have lived in the area 30 plus years and have enjoyed all three original restaurants. Kallies which sadly burned down, Truck-a-dero was also great. read more

Very cozy nice diner Portions are big. Customer service is great. Will definitely come back to check other items on the menu

Where to start, well the General manager was assisting and assessing the normal operations. The waiters do talk loud for the hard of hearing and they have all kinds of options. I took my mom and aunt in a mother's days brunch and ended here. I am not too thrilled about this place from my last visit but the food did do its thing. I just need more attention when ordering about preferences and get rid of the hot chocolate. The juice is good quality and the pancakes are good. The hash browns need to be browner tho and skillet can be hotter and more cheese. After 75 dollars later I wanted half of a refund. However, the waiter at the front made me feel welcoming. read more

A local, old, reliable establishment, obviously! It was our first time there. I was delighted to see so many regulars greeted by name and acknowledged by the staff. The eggs and grits were just fine. The eggs were cooked perfectly. The grits nothing special, but I enjoyed them with some butter and bacon sprinkled in. My coffee mug was large and always full, although the coffee seemed a bit weak. It's all good - it reminded me of some of my dad's favorite places and, some days, that's enough for me. read more

Mr. Perry's - Massive coffee mug!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Sacramento, California

Just found out that Tina who has been a waitress here for a very long time no longer works at Perry's. She is one of the best and is really missed. I've been coming to Perry's for over 20 years and is one of my favorite places to eat but unfortunately I will not be going there anymore. The current main waitress is one of the worst I've seen. Over the past 20 years about 90% of them have been fantastic. The current one is not attentive, doesn't provide items that are included with the meal, bring your salad after your meal is served and today had a really crappy attitude. As being one of the old timers I would take a vacant seat at a small table wave hello and others would take a counter seat. There was three or four parties after me that she gave seats and menus and just glanced at me as she walked by. I got up and walked out of the restaurant. To be clear the food is good and service by other staff is great. This is the first time I've stopped going to a restaurant that I enjoy because of poor service and attitude of a waitress. She does not represent the restaurant well. read more

Mr. Perry's Restaurant Time: about 4:20 pm. Day: Sunday, November 3, 2024. Address: 7820 Alta Valley Dr. Sacramento, CA 95823. Phone; (916) 423-2140. Prices at Mr. Perry's restaurant have gone through the roof! I ordered half a turkey sandwich with a side of fruit, and I added two strips of bacon for the Half Turkey Sandwich, which I believe wound up on the Club House Sandwich? I also ordered a Club House Sandwich with Ham and American Cheese and a side of French Fries. Last, but not the least, I ordered two chocolate Milkshakes. The food was good, the service decent, the ambiance not so great. This all cost me $50.81. Now you add in the tip, well, I should've gone to Zocalos. Needless to say, I won't be back, the cost is too prohibitive. I gave it a 3-star rating based on the cost of the meal, nothing more. Enjoy your meal! read more

I used to go to Mr. Perry's a lot before the beginning of Covid. As a matter of fact, my dad loved to go when I was little, back in the 70's, before we went to visit family in the central valley. Well, my mom wanted seafood and suggested we come here. Oh my, I still love this place! There seems to be so many more and different items. But, many of the same as well. I had a T-bone steak that came with soup, salad and a potato. It was soooo good!! My mom had the seafood platter and my son chicken and waffles. It was ALL good and filling! I also want to thank Karen, who was our marvelous server!! I can't wait until the next time we go. read more
