Looking for a local diner after moving from out of state that's family friendly, has good food, and won't break the bank. This place checks all the boxes! Everyone's super friendly, Ronnie's always around, and they made us feel at home. Going to be our new go to spot! read more

1st time. Exceptional service from the time we walked in the door. High quality food. We'll be back.

Walked in and was instantly greeted and seated. The food was delicious and serving size was more than plenty. All of the staff were friendly and the service was fast! read more

Day dates with my bride have become quite a "thing" over the years, and we're always looking for new places to try. On a list of recommended breakfast spots I received earlier this week there were a few places we haven't tried, so the first stop on today's Saturday adventure was Ronnie's Restaurant. When we pulled up, the parking lot was pretty full, but on walking in we were seated immediately-- quite a feat for 10:20 on a Saturday morning! The dining room was quite large with windows all around and lots of seating. It was very clean-- bright and airy, with a slight sense of nostalgia about it. It took a couple of minutes before our server came over, and a few more before we had coffee, but the place was BUSY, so we didn't mind. When the coffee came she took our orders and by the time our food arrived we'd been in the building a total of 20 minutes... again-- not bad for a Saturday morning rush. As for the food, the thing about which I was most excited, that being the biscuits and gravy, was fine... nothing monumental, but my over medium eggs were perfect and the bacon was amazing. It had a smoky essence that made it feel special. The meal also came with what I presume is their standard breakfast potatoes; they were SPECTACULAR. My wife's waffle was crisp on the surface and tender inside. She was very pleased. And the cinnamon roll... OH. MY. STARS. It was of generous size with a rich cinnamon ribbon and a veritable ocean of cream cheese frosting. My wife and I shared it and we both HIGHLY recommend it! The clientele ranged from the most senior of adults to families with young children... a really great testimony to the family-friendly nature of the restaurant. The price was very reasonable and our over all experience was very good. We'll definitely be going back. Hope we'll see YOU there! read more

I usually go to Kate's Kitchen in the Northland but do visit Ronnie's when in Lenexa love their menu, service, and reasonable prices. Recommend!! read more

I love this place! Been going here for years with my family. We love the Thursday lunch special! Great service as well. Patty is super sweet and friendly. I've tried most of the menu items. Can't go wrong with the kitchen sink omelette. My parents love the chicken Caesar wrap. Pro tip if you get the cottage cheese ask for extra seasoning or what I call "shakey stuff". read more

This is a neighborhood favorite of me and my husband's. We love coming here for a quick brunch on the weekends. Our servers have always been very kind and attentive. They're always quick to greet you and our order has never taken longer than 20 minutes. One time our waitress recommended getting the chicken fried chicken and eggs and I will never get anything else. It's hands down the best chicken fried chicken I've ever had at a brunch place. It's hand breaded and deep fried. It's always fresh and tastes like it's battered THAT day. My husband gets the steak and eggs often and LOVES it. Nothing we have tried here is bad. We have never spent more than $35 dollars here with a 20% tip and I always have enough for two meals. Very reasonably priced. I cannot recommend this place enough. It's tucked away in Lenexa and often overlooked! read more

Ronnie's Restaurant - Chicken Fried Chicken And Eggs - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lenexa, Kansas

The food was great, reasonable priced, and the service was excellent. We both ordered the same thing. It was pancakes, eggs, and ham along with coffee. The place is a nice hidden gem! Highly recommend it! Susan was an awesome waitress! The couple that own the restaurant named it after their kids as they have one in Lenexa (Ronnie's) and one I think in Gladstone (Kate's). The children I was told are now in high school and work at the restaurants on the weekends. read more

Ordered take out from the restaurant before but finally decided to visit in person and it was totally worth it. Our server, Patty was so thoughtful and welcoming throughout the whole meal. In addition the food delicious for a fantastic price. I'm rarely thrilled with breakfast diners but everything we had was delicious. We loved the chicken fried steak and gravy was ON POINT. I enjoyed my sandwich with curly fries and their ranch was just the cherry on top. Oh, did mention the homemade cinnamon roll? If you haven't been here, it deserves a visit. read more

Ronnie's Restaurant - Kids pancake - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lenexa, Kansas

While I was in Lenexa, I decided to search for a good place to have breakfast on Yelp. That's when I found Ronnie's Restaurant. Although I had never heard of it before, the positive reviews piqued my interest. I decided to give it a try, and I'm glad I did because it didn't disappoint. The service was excellent, the food was delicious, and we didn't have to wait long to be seated or for our meal to be served. The only downside was that I realized I forgot to take photos of the amazing food after I had already finished it! One interesting thing I noticed is that they offer flavored creamer. read more

First rate breakfast & plenty of room for large groups. My wife calls ahead & they set up for a large group about once a month. The portions are fairly large. I don't think it's possible to walk away from there hungry. They have a lot of staff, all of which are very friendly and efficient. read more

I can't remember why I came here, maybe I found it on a recommended list either from Google or Yelp. Anyway, I drove from Lawrence to Lenexa to try it out. It's likely going to be a one time deal. Not that there's anything bad about it, I just don't see anything special making the drive really worth it. I can get everything on the menu at other places closer to home. There's nothing on the menu that's like ohhhhh that's new, I don't see that any place else. read more

Crab cakes eggs benedict is my personal favorite. But it all looks delicious from the burritos to French toast. It has the family-owned breakfast/lunch spot vibe. Booths and tables available with baseball decor inside and family photos line the entry way. Waitresses are polite and conversational; and service is quick. They also have the good coffee creamer in the bowls on the table (vanilla, hazelnut and macchiato flavors). You won't go wrong with whatever you order. read more

Ronnie's is the perfect mom & pop restaurant. Pricing is cheaper, food is wonderful and homemade, and large in portion. My husband and I have become regulars and feel as if we've tried everything on the menu! the hours are not too long but they are definitely worth a stop in. read more

Ronnie's Restaurant - Caramel nut French toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Lenexa, Kansas

Amazing food and excellent service. We loved it all especially the Turkey bacon ranch sandwich and the French toast!

We went 3 mornings in a row. Good food, service was great. Hardly any wait when we were there except Sunday. Family friendly.

This place has a 80s family breakfast nook vibe to it and the food was pretty good. Nothing super fancy, but a cozy place and good food. Not a top place for breakfast, but something different and not a bad place at all. I actually like the simple aspects of this place, they are not trying to be hip and trendy with fancy new plates and experiences, but they just do things with good service and simple food that is pretty good over all. Something like maybe you'd expect if your Grandma worked here before retirement and was good with home cooking for breakfast. read more

The food was good and the prices are reasonable. The server was very friendly and the restaurant is clean. This looks lace won't "wow" you but I could see it easily becoming my breakfast "go to" go place in Lenexa. read more

Great visit. The food and service was Great Thank you so much for making our Saturday brunch very enjoyable

Ronnie's does more than breakfast, but they definitely do breakfast right! Their biscuits are big and super-fluffy, and when smothered in their sawmill gravy, they're even better. The breakfast sandwich is an unwieldy handful of yum - scrambled eggs, bacon or sausage, and two kinds of cheese on a floppy and flaky croissant. Yum-O! If you have kids that can handle a hot mug, then the cocoa with whipped cream and chocolate syrup is as tasty on the tummy as it is on the eyes. A definite return visit candidate! UPDATED: A snow day from school (don't even start with how crazy canceling things has gotten recently - lawyers ruin everything) brought me back here with my wannabe foodie daughter (the coolest teenager ever) for a 1:1 breakfast. Hence, my aforementioned return visit :) The cinnamon French toast is an absolute home run. For reference purposes, it is one of their homemade cinnamon rolls, sliced, battered, and hits the griddle before making its way to your plate. A drizzle of icing with a blob of whipped butter makes it an excellent selection. Great prices, plenty of seating and parking, and friendly staff. The coffee is meh, but the food is wonderful! A treasure of Lenexa! read more

First time here and it's been absolutely outstanding! The service is fantastic and she has been so friendly! The food is very good, excellent prices and clean restaurant. Coffee is so good! We will definitely be back! Thank you staff for working on this snowy day! read more

We really WANT to like and support this restaurant. We've been there as a couple, individually with other friends, and as a group. 90% of the time, the service has been TERRIBLE! And of course, what memory do you walk away with as a patron? THE TERRIBLE SERVICE. Ronnie's either needs to hire more help, or train the help they've got. Either way, one shouldn't go to a restaurant being "optimistic" about a good experience. Do better, Ronnie's, or we're done patronizing you. read more

We were looking for a breakfast place near Olathe and of course used YELP. A little off the beaten path, but worth the adventure finding. Huge portions, traditional and Mexican style breakfasts. Clean, fast, efficient and tasty! Grab a Java and some hash browns at Ronnie's! read more

Well Ronnie your kitchen earned this one. Got here about 1130 am waited 10 min for a table Pretty normal for Sunday after church. We were waited on quickly got our drinks and place our order. Our cinnamon roll came out in just a few minutes our breakfast did not after waiting over one hour our server said he did Not know what the hold up on the kitchen was but he would check again. Finally at 1250 pm I placed a gratuity on the table for our waiter walked to the check stand sWhen asked for my ticket I told the cashier I did not have one and that we had a coke and a cinnamon roll And never got our breakfast I handed him a 10 dollar bill and told him to figure it out. I will not say never again but we are regular there and at best it will be a long time. I do not mind a delay but either keep me informed or tell me about it up front. Ronnie's you Ned to figure it out read more

Food is amazing! The staff is very welcoming and inclusive. They recognized that I had not been here before, and brought me out one of their famous cinnamon rolls to try. The tables were very clean, and even though it was quite busy, the operation ran quite efficiently. read more

The Italian omelette and scrambled egg with ham and cheese on croissant both with real potatoes were delicious.

Our entire family ate breakfast at Ronnie's, there were eleven of us & our breakfast came all at the same time & warm and all tasted great! Every dish scrumptious with large portions. Our waitress was great, friendly & prompt. The restaurant has a family atmosphere, with a lot of all occupants laughing and enjoying the togetherness.

The decor in this place is very down home Americana. The hostess was very nice, and even though they were busy, we were sat right away. The menu has scripture in it, which we love. Our server was Patti, and she was extremely friendly. She took what we wanted and made suggestions for us to get the best deals. She was attentive but not overbearing. Our food was very good and surprisingly large portions. When they brought the bill, it was just under $60 for the 6 of us - not bad at all. And the check had scripture on it as well. Love this place. read more

Lovely establishment! I went in for breakfast/lunch. I chose the Red Hot Mamacado and I added jalapeños (I love spicy!). It was all so very good. The meal with their breakfast potatoes and even the wheat toast was perfect! My server was AMAZING and it seemed that all staff were friendly and worked well together. So glad I tried it out, and I'll be back! read more

we love coming here!! our first time coming here was just over 1yr ago. my first order was their california chicken sandwich, and my husband ordered "pick of the litter". their portions are a good size, we never walk away hungry. we also love their pancakes, french toasts, fruity crepes, fried chicken salad, fried chicken and mashed potato.. along with fruits and cottage cheese, they serve curly fries a side to the sandwiches you order. we don't love all coffees that are served at most breakfast/lunch spots, but Ronnie's coffee is good. service is great, most of the weekend helpers look like jr high or high schoolers. they usually pack out quickly on the weekends, but they do their best to get customers seated within about 15-30min. they don't take reservations, so just make sure you have a few people at your party present to reserve a table on the spot. they close at 2:00, so please don't be that person that comes just 30min until closing time! the single (although significant) downrating is their restrooms. it is usually disgusting. if you need to potty, apparently, so did everyone else. their pipes could not handle it, and their staff could not keep to pace as well. you are forewarned, so plan ahead! you will enjoy the remainder of your time with them :) oh, and check out with your receipt on your way out! read more

It's not difficult to see why this place is pulling down solid review after solid review! My breakfast buddy and I decided to break our streak of consecutive visits to the joint around the corner to give Ronnie's a try. The only regret we had from the entire visit was not having given it a shot much sooner! All the basics were there: clean, spacious dining room, excellent service, huge menu with all the basics and tons of beyond-the-basics, and last but not least: fantastic prices. Like, so fantastic, you kind of wonder how they're staying in business! Our waitress deserves a particular call out for her patience, assistance with walking us through the aforementioned large menu as first timers, and her infinite patience with our questions about all things breakfast. Even after my buddy mentioned not being a "cinnamon roll guy", she somehow charmingly talked us in to sharing one. To this moment, nearly one week later, I cannot get that cinnamon roll out of my mind. Large, warm, soft, doughy, and chock-full of cinnamon and icing, the thing was a masterpiece. I enjoyed a scramble, and my buddy a breakfast sandwich. Both were well-executed. I'd like to give a shout out to the biscuit, which, again, was large, warm, soft and disappeared in record time. This place knows how to treat its grains... Lastly, and this is of utmost importance: the coffee at Ronnie's is awesome. Nothing befuddles me more than a breakfast joint that serves subpar joe. Ronnie's passed the coffee test with flying colors! Food = 4/5 Facility = 4/5 Service = 5/5 Ambiance = 4/5 Value = 5/5 read more
