    Small Mac n cheese, small soda.
    Kristin A.

    The food tasted good- but it was $20 for two small Mac n cheese, no sides or bread, and 2 small drinks. We had to leave and get another lunch because we were still hungry. I asked, and yes we got the correct price.

    Bacon egg and cheese breakfest
    Kaci H.

    It's 7:30 AM, I was the only order. How could you possibly reach a level of laziness to splatter my egg on the plate. THE PLATE. barely even on the sandwich then proceed to give me 5 slabs of cheese that tasted like rusted metal, if it wasn't rotten cheese then there is absolutely no way the Panera taste testers tasted that and confirmed to be able to sell that dookie cheek booty tasting cheese to the public. I feel like i need to get my stomach pumped after one bite, I had to chug my green tea for 30 seconds straight just the get the taste out of my mouth while I was gagging. I'm so disappointed, I'll never be ordering any food from you again. Unless it's a cinnamon crunch bagel, because it's never let me down. Yet. YET. Especially because the last time i ate here I got food poisoning from the chicken noodle soup, then my chicken from my chicken avacado sandwhich was FROZEN PINK CHICKEN Thank God I didn't swallow it, My body rejected it. I feel like this place should be closed down to the public.

    At nine months pregnant I got half way through my breakfast sandwich before noticing what I had been eating. Nasty.

    The staff is always friendly and ready to take my order. I really enjoy the different kinds of bagel. Coffee is always hot and strong.

    Curbside apparently means, come in to get your order from the curb, after waiting 10 minutes for a scone and bagel. Thanks guys.

The restaurant is easily accessible and there is plenty of parking. Rae's is located in a strip mall and there appeared to be significant amount of traffic. There weren't many people eating, just some regulars but it made for a peaceful dining experience. Plenty of breakfast options to choose from for a meal. I ordered a side pancake and the waitress gave me a look. She said "Honey, these are big!" I thanked her for the warning and told her I loved leftovers. lol The food was great and the pancakes were huge. Very satisfying and comforting food. Hit the spot on a cold January day. Prices were very reasonable and well within range. One happy customer!

I don't usually like breakfast potatoes. I do now. The potatoes were bite sized, had the skins on them, were seasoned, but not hot. The potatoes were well cooked but not mushy had a crisp exterior. What I really enjoyed was my biscuit and Gravy. The Gravy was perfect. It had me thinking about how delish it was later in the week. There was enough food to take home fir a second meal. There is a homey feel to the restaurant and the manager waits tables!! Mr. G. Reported an issue with the men's restroom and it was attended to immediately. Definite going back when I want Biscuits and Gravy.

( A very large order for 13 people, so not a cheap order) The Uber driver didn't even pick up the food until 6:20 pm, and then Uber pushed my delivery window all the way to 8:30 pm. I watched the Uber driver on the app, driving all over town. The driver was clearly making multiple other stops before delivering mine, which was extremely frustrating. Not only had my food sat at the restaurant before being picked up, but now my food was sitting in the driver's car getting cold and soggy while she drove to multiple other places. At one point I watched as she drove right by my house without even stopping to deliver my food!! I called the restaurant to explain the situation, and the manager was outstanding. She was super helpful, listened to everything, and resolved the issue with no hassle. That kind of customer service is rare and really saved my experience. I truly appreciate how the restaurant stood behind their service even when the delivery issues were completely out of their control. I'll definitely order from them again -- hopefully next time with better delivery luck!!!

    We have been visiting Popi's about weekly now since the first review. They have consistently been…read moreattentive, responsive, caring, and clean. Our visits recently have been on June 2, 9, 15, 22, 29 and so far July 8, 11. That is a testament to their delicious food, ample servings, and friendly personnel. For servers, on most days we have had Angelica, a couple times we have had different servers and have been good as well. Our selections have become pretty regular meaning we have been pretty much ordering the same thing as we enjoy them so much. I get the Fajitas Popi's ($20.25) which includes meats of chicken, beef, chorizo, and shrimp. It always comes out sizzling with a protector pad on the handle to prevent burning. An example of the quantity of meat included are 6 jumbo shrimp or 8 large shrimp in the mix and about 3 tablespoons of chorizo, as well as a nice complement of chicken and beef. It seems like at least five to six ounces of each. Vegetables include grilled and sliced bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes. My wife gets the Chicken Fajitas ($18.25) which includes a very nice amount of sliced chicken (seems like about at least 1/2 pound), as well as the grilled peppers, onions, and tomatoes. Each fajita platter comes with a second plate that includes beans, rice, sour cream, guacamole, pico de gallo, lettuce. In addition, 3 foil wrapped tortillas are provided wrapped in foil to keep them to and moist, choice of flour or corn. As mentioned, the food quantity is very good, especially for a single serving. My Fajitas Popi's had twice as much meat and vegetables on it for a single serving than we received at a restaurant on a trip that was supposedly a serving for two. Popi's definitely gives great bang for the money! It has been sufficient for us to take home half of each of our platters to eat at home for a meal another day, and it is all still very tasty and moist. We can hear the clattering of the knives and necessary utensils, and the sizzle of the food, to make freshly cooked fajitas. The sound and the ultimate taste is obvious. Freshly made tortilla chips are served in a basket, as well as a very nicely seasoned (mildly spicy) salsa served in a bottle with small bowls provided upon seating, and free refills of both are provided throughout. The chips are nice and light, not heavily salted, and have retained their crispiness even a couple days later at home (we place them in a sealed bowl when we get home). We can barely get bagged chips to stay crisp that long after opening a bag, so we really enjoy Popi's chips. Besides the menu on the website, they have a different special each day that is written on a marker board on the wall immediately across from the door so easily seen upon entering. One day may be enchiladas, another a burrito, and so on. Tuesday is tacos as mentioned in my previous post. As for menu items, so far we have had the Fajitas Popi's, Chicken Fajitas, Steak Fajitas, and Burritos. All have been excellent, seem to be freshly made, and would order them again. We hope to try some other items in the future but can state the fajitas and burritos are definitely good, and a great value for the money. Every once in awhile Popi has a few moments to come out to check on things. He is friendly, smiles, says hello, and is not intrusive but seems to enjoy seeing people enjoying his preparations. I hope to remember to take photos of some of these items to provide a visual of the items. Sorry, I am not a big photo person, even of myself, so my goal is to enjoy the food I am at a place for. In the meantime, if you want Mexican that is fresh and properly made, Popi's is a place to definitely consider.

You're unable to talk, you have to point to the item or items on the menu to your server so they know what you want to eat and drink. Again I was unaware of this Saturday night event and obviously certain people enjoy it and that's great but if you're coming here on a Saturday to try and to have conversation with out using sign language and pointing to items on menu because your server can't hear you then don't come here on a Saturday night. I think we got here around 6pm and he was still going at 8pm so I don't know what time he stops. The food was good. The Elvis singer in my opinion singing in a living room size room with the volume set like he was singing in a stadium not my cup of tea. Again this is just my opinion so I know not to go to this restaurant on a Saturday night.

I ordered online and went through their drive thru. Super easy process and the woman in the drive thru was super nice. The sandwich was very tasty. It came with a sauce on the side but I didn't need any. The Asian pickles gave me enough flavor. The steak was good, had an ok amount of fat on it, but small amounts are no issues for me. My wife tried the Chicken Alfredo and she loved it. I think it was good, maybe the one-cheese kind of Alfredo called the Cacio e Pepe, don't get me wrong, it's very good, but the chicken probably isn't fresh, and the flavor is good. Not what I'm used to. But very good. NOW, the crème brûlée was AMAZING!!!!!! Totally worth the 4.50 each. Will I eat here again, sure.

My beef noodle dish ($10.99) was served just eight minutes after I ordered at the bar, where the service was accommodative and still getting up to speed on order entry. The dish had a tasty sauce, delicious noodles, a good variety of veggies and a good amount of delicious, lean, seasoned, perfectly cooked beef - nice! I only wish the portion had been a little larger. I found the dining area to be clean and recently remodeled, with sound coming from one TV tuned to a sports channel inside. I also noticed a drive-thru lane outside. They opened eight minutes late and the employees took the parking spots closest to the entrance - not cool. I also noticed a 4% credit card surcharge. Overall, I'm thinking 3.5 stars and rounding up for the delicious dish.
