My son ordered a club sandwich that came out 3-5 minutes after the omelettes we ordered.

Logistically there is both amble parking and space inside for groups of all sizes. Very simple inside and sometimes that's all you need. The service was spot on, even if a bit on the slower side for how busy they were. We weren't in a rush, so not a big deal. They were accurate, attentive, and very friendly. The chicken fried steak was delicious, and cooked perfectly. Their gravy was very nice as well. Eggs cooked correctly and had browns crispy. All I could ask for there! The french toast was good but not great. I'm not sure what it was that they coated it in but it had a bit of an odd crispy texture that was almost like it was pik-nik sticks (for lack of a better comparison), and while it wasn't bad, tilt wasn't my favorite.

Our experience at Red Zone Cafe was a great one! Although we experienced a small wait, our waitress, Yvette, soon swooped in and began giving us wonderful service. Yvette is such a cheerful person - she really made our day! Not only was the service amazing, the food (we ordered burgers) was phenomenal. If you haven't been here, I really recommend you try it. Hopefully you'll get Yvette as your waitress! read more
