I wanted to give this place a try for lunch after a day at Ikea…read more There was a slight wait for a table when we got here. The restaurant is big, with the host's table in the front having a hutch full of knickknacks behind it. A large Betty Boop statue stands at the very top oh the fully while the shelf itself has restaurant merch and other knickknacks on it. The open kitchen can be seen to the immediate left and counter seating is right in front of it. The drinks refrigerator sits next to the counter as well and over to the very right is the main dining room. The dining area is mainly comprised of booths that seat up to 4 people, but there are regular circle tables too. There are also framed pictures and decorations hanging on the walls and a spinning cake display is next to the booths as well. We ordered the following: Daughter had the 2-2-2 combo, which is 2 eggs, 2 sausages and 2 blueberry pancake. She thought that it was great. She loved that the pancake was blue from all the blueberries and the sausages were delicious! She said that she would order it again. I love these types of sausages, nice and thick and not the skinny ones. Hubs had the Dutch Benedict, which are poached eggs on an English muffin with scrapple topped with Hollandaise sauce and potato cakes. He said that the eggs were done perfectly and the scrapple was swimming inside the sandwich. I don't understand why Hubs loves scrapple. It's not healthy but he said once in a blue moon is ok. LOL. He loves the potato cakes and said that it reminds him of potato latkes from a Jewish deli. Lastly, I had the sweet pepper and scrambled eggs on a kaiser roll. This was simple and I loved it. I've always wanted to eat eggs on a kaiser roll. For some reason, I love it. I ordered the Dark Side of the Moon cake to go. This was pretty good. Daughter and I fought for every last drop of the cake. LOL. Service was friendly and quick. Will return to try other items on the menu!

Santangelo's Cafe was an interesting find. We had initially booked brunch somewhere for the morning…read more we went here, but the other venue had to push our date because of availability. So in the ensuing confusion we managed to find this little place and enjoyed the food. The experience was a bit lackluster, but nothing was bad, and I would still say if you're in the area, Santangelo's is definitely worth checking out as they offer classic breakfast staples at a reasonable price. Tucked away in Norristown behind where the old Conte Luna pasta factory used to be located, there is generous parking and both seating inside and some outside tables for when the weather is nice. This is the point where our visit ended up a bit rocky. My eighty year old godmother joined us for breakfast who uses a cane and has a very hard time with steps. The indoor seating here is divided into two floors, the second, up an extremely long set of stairs. When we were seated we were told upstairs was the only seating available and that the large table that would've seated our party of five downstairs was "reserved". Not one to cause any issues, she told us it was fine and we decided to go upstairs despite the issues getting up there and enjoyed our meal. However, upon finishing and coming back down to pay the bill, the table was still empty and there was no apparent reason that we could not have been seated there, saving an older woman with a disability much stress and difficulty. As for our meal, the food was good! As I had said before, breakfast classics with some unique takes. The scrapple that I ordered as a side with my waffle was absolutely outstanding. Cooked perfectly with a crisp outside and a piping hot yet creamy inside that all who are fans of this divisive Philly staple will know is the "right way". Our server was also very nice and definitely offset the seating debacle, and helped redeem the overall experience. If we are ever nearby for breakfast again, we will likely return and try some other items. I was a bit upset they no longer have the meatball omelet, which sounded crazy and amazing, but maybe one day it will be back! Again, if you are in the area or live close, give Santangelo's a try and decide for yourself!

As a service of the local county bar association, this place stands out. It is located on the first…read morefloor of the Montgomery County Bar Association. The menu is amazing diverse, service is first rate, and the kitchen knows what it is doing about breakfast and lunch. Downside is that it is only open to the legal community and only Tuesday -- Friday, 8:30 to 2:30. Still, if you resemble these limitations, you might just find yourself eating a very good meal. I was there for an office lunch to greet a new member of the firm I am of counsel to, and ordered ahead so that everything was ready for us when we walked in at 1:00. I know enough to eat light at these gatherings because we talk more than eat, and we try to avoid conspicuous consumption in front of our peers. Thus, the MBA Salad in front of me was served in a large bowl and filled with standard veggies plus sliced apples, dried cranberries and crumbled feta. Liked it. Cool and not too filling. I also tasted a Pierogie ordered by another mate. It was okay, but definitely purchased in a frozen food department. Prices are reasonable. Of course, you have to be willing to be surrounded by lawyers and staff, otherwise, the experience might be less than purely enjoyable.

I had never been there as there were other Mexican places that I preferred, but I believe I remember this restaurant showing up sometime around 2008-2010 or so. I may be wrong, but the point is that it took me a very long time to finally order from here. It just so happened that we were having our TTRPG game day nearby at a friend's home who happens to leave at the edge of Norristown proper, and they said let's get Mexican and this was where we ended up picking up from. It is definitely legitimate Mexican food, with some very classic preparations and also some items that you don't always find, that I was very excited about. I was able to order pozole rojo, and if I see pozole on the menu, it is my immediate go-to. Although after seeing and smelling the tacos that one of my friends had ordered, I was remiss for not ordering them with cactus for myself, or even getting an order of those as well to go with my pozole! Despite the food being good and the price being pretty reasonable, there was nothing spectacular about anything we ordered. It wasn't very memorable and that is often what I am looking for when I try somewhere new, especially somewhere that has been a staple of a community area for a long time. However, that being said, I would go here again, and even sit down next time for a full experience. If you live near Norristown and haven't tried them out yet, head on over and definitely order the tacos with cactus, and if you're a soup fanatic like me, get that pozole!!!!

So we will see if Puddlers decides to offer the salmon salad option. The ambiance is nice, it's loud but always a good vibe. It's been about 3yrs since we first visited. I do miss the flounder sandwich which is no longer on the menu. The black bean burger is a great vegetarian option as well. Last but not least the cheese curds are delicious and always fresh. The beer selection is great and the drinks aren't bad. Puddlers is a great local spot.
