James R.

Quiet atmosphere with very nice wait staff. The seats are older booths. There is back room for group gatherings. The coffee was hot and black. It was not super strong or burnt. The bread on the meatloaf was thin cut. The meatloaf and brown gravy that comes with it had a good flavor. We sat and talked for about 5 hours. They brought us our own pot of coffee. It was a very enjoyable evening.

Good Ruben
Ric V.

Cheryl was very friendly and a great waitress. The Ruben was good. Onion rings were crunchy and awesome. The fries were soft and bland. The price was average. Blue Moon draft was delicious.

French Dip Sandwich and Hot Turkey Sandwich- extra gravy.

Love this diner in Auburn. Don't come here often but when I do, it's packed with people coming for their breakfast menu (even after 12pm!)- the pancakes are huge! I enjoy their BLT and French dip. Love the hand cut fries. Boyfriend always orders their hot turkey sandwich, extra gravy.

Tomato basil soup

Atmosphere is inviting and relaxing. Both Allie & Nicole have served us and were fantastic! My husband & I eat here frequently- highly recommend

Corned beef hash. Sort of.

This is what people who only half remember what corned beef hash is make. When I arrived the wait staff was 3 feet outside the front door smoking and after I stood at the greeting station one of them opened the door to tell me to sit wherever. A third staff member came from the back after a bit and took my order, she was nice. Cool. I don't recommend. Food is disappointing and 2/3rds of the staff would rather make the dining area smell like cigarettes than acknowledge people coming in.

Burnt bacon burnt bread burnt fries. All cold

Waitress at bar was so sweet and kind. The food was horrible. Burnt cold cold greesy bacon the bread was burnt and hard and the fries where burnt and cold. I didnt want to upset the sweet bartender but when i payed full price for 2 bites of my blt ( no lettuce) n fries i told her . She said tell the cook. There is no reason to serve cold burnt bacon. I hurt my mouth trying to bite it. I spit both bites out. I ate 2 fries that where not as burned as rest of them. Worse place ever to eat. BLT sounded so good when i saw it on the menu. Came out nasty

See all

We are a mixed race couple. Waitress only paid us attention when the white person walked in the door. So we left.

Unfortunately I was not impressed by the food. I ordered an omelette with hash browns. It was very watery and had no flavor.

West Hill Deli - Ube Chicken and Waffles

West Hill Deli

Finally checked out West Hill Deli! Absolutely loved their food and ambiance…read more For food, we got the adobo pork belly (comes with macaroni salad, rice, and vegetables on the side) and the pandan fried chicken (comes with rice and veggies on the side). Pandan was super crispy and rice was soft, not mushy. Adobo was rich in garlic and in smoky and sweet flavor. Love they kept the fat on some adobo pieces. Each dish was just enough for us to finish for breakfast. For drinks, we ordered the calamansi juice and calamansi iced tea. Both taste great. Side notes: You order up front, bring your table number, and sit wherever you like. They will bring you your food. Once youre done, please put your food away in the back, which is located on the left hand side of the deli if youre facing the deli at the entryway. It was busy on a Sunday around noon. A few were available but was filled quickly after about half an hour of us arriving. People tend to spend time here. About an hour if youre just there to have a quick meal, but families were gathering and spending time with no rush which i loved. No waitress or waiter to check on you, just only to bring you your food which took a reasonable 2 minutes for drinks and about 10 - 15 for food. Overall, we definitely recommend!

Everything we ordered here was so satisfying, but the pork sisig with rice was the standout for me…read moresuper flavorful, perfectly savory, and just hits all the right notes. I also tried the garlic fried rice with longanisa and eggs, which was really good too. The longanisa had that nice sweet-savory balance, and the garlic rice was fragrant and comforting, though I'd still pick the sisig if I had to choose between the two. The ube pancakes were delicious soft, slightly sweet, and definitely a fun treat. Fair warning though, they will leave your teeth a little purple for a bit but honestly worth it. I also got the ube coffee and... YUM. Such a good combo with the pancakes. Overall, everything was solid and full of flavor. I'd definitely come back, especially for that pork sisig. Tita is definitely cooking in the back you can taste it.

Perhaps I am old and no one wants that anymore?. People are nice, place is pleasant. Would probably return to try something else.

We visited Maggie on Meeker Breakfast today around 11:00 a.m., and despite how packed the…read morerestaurant was, our experience was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. It's clear why this place is so popular. The atmosphere was welcoming, the restaurant was very clean, and everything ran smoothly even during a busy rush. This is a family-owned restaurant, and our server/owner, Raman Aurora, truly made the experience special her mom also checked on us. She was incredibly kind, professional, and attentive, especially considering how busy the place was. She checked on us multiple times to make sure we had everything we needed and never made us feel rushed or forgotten. The level of hospitality was exceptional. We ordered the salmon omelette with house potatoes, along with pancakes from the kids' menu. The food arrived hot and fresh, and the portion sizes were huge, especially the salmon omelette. The amount of salmon in the omelette was very generous and impressive for such a reasonable price. You can tell they don't cut corners with quality or quantity. The house potatoes were perfectly cooked, and the pancakes were fluffy and delicious. One highlight was the homemade hot salsa, which was absolutely amazing fresh, flavorful, and just the right amount of heat. It paired perfectly with the omelette and really elevated the meal. They were also incredibly accommodating, especially since I had our 2 1/2-year-old nephew with me. They kindly gave us the seating I requested, which made our visit much more comfortable. They also gave him some goodies. The menu is excellent, with great variety, and the salmon omelette was highly recommended now I know why. Even though the restaurant was full and they were likely short-staffed, the service was efficient, organized, and friendly throughout our visit. It's rare to find a place that delivers great food, generous portions, fair prices, and outstanding service all at once. We were extremely impressed and will absolutely be back. Highly recommend Maggie on Meeker Breakfast to anyone looking for an amazing breakfast spot in Kent, Washington!

Pizza is decent here, I'd come back again. Fries are good and chicken tenders/wings are typical bar grub. Beers are relatively low priced, I think it was about $4 for a draft coors light. The bar feels like someone's backyard garage, kind of a small space but also kinda "homey".

I want to be clear that this is coming from a place of honesty, not hostility. My wife and I were…read moregenuinely looking forward to the experience. I ordered the $21 meat lovers omelette, and I was honestly surprised by what was served. For that price point, I expected a substantial, well executed dish. Instead, the omelette was relatively small, the sausage and ham inside were cold, and the eggs were cooked to the point that they resembled an overdone scramble more than a folded omelette. At that price, that felt difficult to justify. Additionally, there was no pricing listed on the menu for a side of bacon. Being charged $7 for 4 pieces of thin bacon without any prior indication of cost felt uncomfortable and unexpected. Transparency in pricing matters, especially at those rates. My wife ordered a scramble, and unfortunately, it was presented as an open faced mound of eggs placed on top of meat, cheese, and what were labeled as home fries. The potatoes were deep fried and did not resemble home fries in texture or preparation. Presentation aside, the overall execution did not reflect the quality we anticipated. I say all of this respectfully, but firmly: based on this experience, there is not a realistic possibility that we would return. When a restaurant displays a food rating publicly, customers naturally assume a certain standard. After our breakfast this morning, I can understand how that rating may have been earned. I hope this feedback is received in the constructive spirit it's intended. We believe restaurants deserve the opportunity to hear honest experiences directly. Wishing you the best moving forward.
