I have been coming to this restaurant my entire life. My family has held countless events here, my…read moregrandparents live right down the road, and I have the unique perspective of having worked for both the previous owners, the Plattenbergs, and the current owner, Bill. To be clear, my time as an employee was over 15 years ago; I am writing this as a lifelong patron and neighbor who has watched this establishment decline firsthand over multiple decades. The Chapparal has changed drastically over the last thirty years. Under the Plattenbergs, the restaurant was meticulously maintained. Today, the lack of hygiene is staggering. You walk in and it smells like a urinal. The bathrooms are absolutely disgusting--horrendous smells and filth that make porta-potties look clean by comparison. This extends to the kitchen. When I worked there, I saw dead rats pulled out of pots on rarely used shelves and a dead mouse in the bottom of a cooking pot. I have even been served sodas with bugs in the glass that I had to pick out myself. The food handling is just as concerning. On buffet nights, the food often sits out for 4 to 5 hours without being replaced. It is well known that Bill reuses buffet food for multiple days; if it isn't used, it gets covered, refrigerated, and put back out the next night. I have personally seen the same tray of food on the buffet Friday, Saturday, and Sunday because Bill refused to throw it away. Countless people, myself included, have complained of getting sick every time they eat here. Beyond the physical state of the restaurant, the management is unprofessional. Bill has a history of screaming at and belittling female employees in front of guests. Most recently, he did this to my mother, who is an independent contractor, screaming at her in front of the clients she brought into his establishment. He seems to enjoy screaming at women, though I doubt he has the balls to do the same to a man. Furthermore, if you book an event here, be wary of the pricing. Bill charges by the physical plate used rather than the person. If a child goes up and puts a single scoop of pudding on a plate, you are charged the full meal price (e.g., $13.99). If they do that four times, you are paying for four full adult meals for one child. This isn't a "one-time bad experience"--it is a documented, long-term decline of a place I once cared about. For your health and your wallet, please take your business elsewhere. People need to know what is actually happening behind the scenes at the Chapparal.

I was amazed that the biscuits were homemade and had a tiny touch of maple flavoring to them with sausage in between the two biscuits. The gravy was very tasty, nice and thick and done to perfection. I've never had biscuits and gravy that I liked in the past, but this I loved! I would have it again over and over. Thanks Bill! Fantastic job. And our waitress Kendall was very attentive, professional, and sweet. Thanks for a very positive breakfast experience.
