So we checked out of a hotel down the road, and instead of enjoying their free breakfast of cereal…read moreand maybe a waffle, my wife suggested Wade's. She had been here before, so I'm thinking sure why not. We walked in and sat right up at the counter and the gentleman that was working the grill was super friendly. He's basically cooking for the whole restaurant with another guy next to him and yet still found the time to welcome us in and take our order. I got the southwestern omelette that is made with homemade chorizo hash and he asked if I would like some jalapeno chopped up in there to which I said sure why not. Comes with a side of toast and potatoes... My wife gets eggs benedict, and they have a menu item called the Benny extreme which is the same basically but it comes with tomato and spinach, so she opted for this. She also ordered a cinnamon swirl pancake. I'm thinking hey that sounds pretty good, so I asked if I could also have a cinnamon swirl pancake. The gentleman taking our order just kind of looked at me and said are you sure? So now I'm thinking to myself yes yes of course I'm sure I've had pancakes before, some places I go to I get a whole stack of them, I'm thinking I can handle one and I'll use it as like a dessert item. He says okay, smiles, and they prepare our food. Everything tasted wonderful. The hash was excellent, at least I think it was I mean I've never had it before but no complaints. The only surprise I had was the pancake. It was on its own dinner plate. This thing was freaking huge. We could have easily shared one and maybe had leftovers as we also both ordered breakfast in addition to these two monster pancakes. Now please understand I was in no way upset. While it is true my wife could have warned me about the size, and he could have said something as well, it was okay. I still finished everything and most of my pancake. Over all the service was great, like I said this guy was cooking for the whole restaurant and he's still found the time to check on us and made sure our coffee was full. I will definitely go back next time I'm in the area however it might be a little while because I live a couple hours away. The only thing I wish I had done that I forgot, when you order toast with your breakfast, the bread is homemade and they sell it by the loaf. White, wheat, rye, they have all of it. I meant to buy a loaf and I forgot. I look at it now though it's just an excuse to go back, and of course to grab another one of those pancakes... The only other thing that I could mention is that the place is a little smaller than I had expected. Everything was nice and clean so that's a bonus however for the business they're doing, and the number of people waiting to get a table, they could use a larger dining room.

This is my experience as an AuDHD adult, male-presenting person…read more I went to Déjà Brew and was greeted with smiles. Three people were prepping early in the morning--maybe around 8:30 or 9:00. The whole place had a warm, easygoing vibe. I ordered a Soul Shine smoothie and a BLT for later, with romaine substituted and garlic & herb sourdough, a Texas-toast-style bread. They called it sourdough, and maybe it was--but just a heads-up, it's on the denser side. I liked it, though! The interaction was great. They answered all my questions, and when I asked if I needed to make a purchase to use the WiFi, they said no--it was freely given. That small kindness already made me feel welcome. I took my time sipping my smoothie while researching what's next. When I was ready for my sandwich a couple of hours later, I let them know, then stepped outside for some air while they made it. When I came back, I found they had brought it right to my spot. That small, thoughtful gesture really stuck with me. The sandwich looked fantastic, and to my surprise, it came with a few thick-cut pickle chips--definitely dill, and so good. The BLT itself? Also solid. Big slices of tomato (which, honestly, I don't usually go for, but it's a BLT, so I rolled with it). The mayo--or maybe aioli?--was incredible, the kind that makes your mouth water. The romaine was fresh and crisp, and the bacon was good--though I wouldn't have minded another slice or two. When they brought it over, they reminded me that chips were included. I checked out the options and saw some good flavors, but I was craving something a little more nutrient-dense. I asked if they offered fruit with the meal, and they kindly offered me a banana. It seemed like something they don't normally do, but they were happy to accommodate, which I really appreciated. The total came to $21.60 after taxes, and honestly? Worth it. I spent five hours here, enjoying the space, the welcoming atmosphere, and the heater they had running on this cold April day. The kindness, the food, and the comfort made it an easy place to settle in for a while. 10/10, would recommend to a friend.

If their hours were more beneficial and consistent to people they would get more costumers.

Everyone had so much fun picking the aptly named drinks and the Harry Potter Butterbeer was one of the top favorites. The wings were Oswego Wingfest Champions and demanded a try. The people's favorite- The Nashville Hot - got top praise from our harshest critic, while the judges' favorite- vanilla-cayenne bbq -won over the majority. Everyone agreed that the heat on both types of wings was next level without going over the line. The Bocce Balls, New England Oysters, and P.E. Island Mussels all were given top marks. The Short Rib French Dip was ordered by 1/3 of our party and was a major hit. The Nashville Hot Chicken brought the heat and also got top marks. The ambiance was great and our waitress, Stephanie, handled a 9 top like a true pro with top service. I can't wait to go back!

And if that wasn't enough, two diners who had just finished their lunch couldn't help themselves from stopping on the way out to tell us how much they loved their meals. We were greeted at the door and seated, within 2 minutes our waitress Lauren was at our table asking us if we had ever dined her before and explaining the menu to us. She was incredibly patient,helpful and knowledgeable especially when asked about gluten free options. Lauren walked us through the menu and many questions we had in general about this year old idea for a tater themed restaurant. Two of the three of us chose a Flight, that consisted of three 8 ounce potatoes with a choice of different toppings. I chose a pulled pork and Mac, a chili and Mac & a buffalo chicken and Mac. My wife chose a pulled pork and Mac, a veggie and a chili all gluten free. Greg went with a single 20 ounce potato and pulled pork and Mac. Everyone was very happy with their choices. And if that wasn't enough it was, we all had dessert. My two lunch companions chose ice cream, I went with a blueberry, strawberry, rhubarb crumble with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Stop into this potato themed restaurant you won't be disappointed.

She opened JoJos after years of being a home cook to family and friends and decided to try opening her own restaurant, geared towards a more "on the go lifestyle" in her words. JoJos is aimed more at the breakfast/brunch crowd, with hours from 8-3PM, but has an assortment of items on the menu, from breakfast sandwiches to smash burgers, shakes, dirty sodas, loaded fries, and their specialty - garbage plates that they refer to as "the junkyard." My wife and I were in the mood for a smash burger but also wanted to try somewhere new. JoJos popped up in our search, so we decided to give them a try. JoJos is in an unassuming building in Oswego and while there's a sign, you'd probably miss it if you weren't looking for it. Its a small place with about 5 or 6 tables, but they are aimed more at to go or quick eats style food over sit down. It's been nicely decorated in a 50s truck diner style with license plates on the walls and bright colors all over. You give your order at the counter then either take it with you or it can be brought to you. JoJo herself took our order, as its only her and 1 other employee. I got a "don't go bacon my heart" smash burger while my wife got the double smasher junkyard plate. Food was brought quickly. Everything was hot, fresh and very good. My smash burgers was cooler perfectly, nice and crispy, the bacon was crispy and plentiful and the fries were well seasoned. My wife enjoyed her plate as well as the purple cow dirty soda she ordered. We'd definitely go back.
