    Meatloaf and more .
    Bill F.

    Food yes yes . Great service if pay cash no 3% up charge which I understand for credit cards . Meatloaf outstanding

    Coffee
    Rivka P.

    At 8 AM on Sunday morning, this place was crowded and I can see why. It's cute. It's clean. Staff is friendly. Food is good. Prices are reasonable. And there's coffee. Rooster's is now my breakfast spot! The cheese omelette was gooey with cheese and that's what I like. The home fries looked kinda black, but turned out to be yummy. I ate them all. And raisin toast with real butter. I took half my omelette home. It's the neighborhood feeling and decor that I like most here. Brooksville is my new home and these are my new neighbors. Btw, not a single person in here was under 75 years old (except me). Maybe the younger crowd sleeps in until 10 AM?

    Friendly service and plenty of food at an affordable price. Comfy atmosphere. Highly recommend.

    This place is sooo good! Cute little mom and pop diner in the downtown Brooksville area. The food is absolutely delicious. It's your normal diner style food but the prices are cheap, food portions are big, and food is delicious. If you go early on the weekends, expect to wait. They are pretty good about getting you in fast but just expect to wait if going on the weekend. Service was great, everyone is super friendly and the diner just gives you this warm, homey, small town feel. Definitely a must visit if in the area.

    Coffee!

    Both service and food could improve so we won't be back. Plus the location is to far away for these seniors.

    I have been coming here for years, and I've seen how this place has changed--and stayed the same!…read moreIn a recent visit, some of the classic charm is still there even if their old cash register is not! I think it's not trying to chase some form of nostalgia instead of just be itself (there's huge figurines around the property, for example, of Elvis). This is classic diner fare and they do a pretty good job of it. I think their milkshakes are pretty great because they are made with thick ice cream and spun right there. I've been getting the Black Bottom for years. As time has gone by, I think this has slowly become more and more eggy vs hamburger-y. This is a bit of a disappointment, to be honest, as it's very unique to Angel's. The tea is still good. Prices have remained reasonable in spite of the years. The diner itself is just as run-down as I remember it every time. But on my most recent visit, the air conditioning didn't leak on me!

The dining car definitely is the place to sit for the full experience. However, seating is limited and it fills quickly during meal times. Beware-the picnic tables come with a slightly weathered statue of Elvis Presley that may seem creepy to some. We chose to share the black-bottomed burger. It's a delicious mixture of egg, hamburger, cheese, and onions. It's hard to describe but truly tasty. The chili cheese fries were a bit soggy but the chili and cheese were pretty good. The shake was thick and creamy. The extra chocolate syrup was a nice touch. Service is friendly and efficient.

Upon entering, dirty tables everywhere and it was so hard to find a clean table to sit at. Dirty floors, dirty windows, buffet with people hovering over it while standing in line to pay their bill. It's ok to have an older restaurant but they must keep it clean! My husband never uses a straw, but he did today - scared the cup may be dirty...we know some folks that come here so we stayed because we just needed to see if it got better and why they come...it's a hard no! Long wait, extremely salty food, sad presentation of the food appearance. I had images of the kitchen in my head after seeing the front of the house. We've never been to Cross City - assuming it's a fishing town - which is cool but other than that, not much here. The pros - waitress was nice and seemed to like her job. I liked all the patriotic decorations. Well we were really hoping to like this establishment, but not for us, oh well, we came, we tasted, we saw, and now we move on.

I completely understand the importance of cleaning the tables, especially between customers, but the smell from the sponges and cleaning products was really unpleasant while we were trying to enjoy our meal. Maybe cleaning the tables before or after the dining period would help. Overall, a good meal, quick seating, friendly service, and very generous portions. We'll definitely be back! But please listen to my suggestion!
