Continuing our everlong love of all things breakfast, we headed to Jake's to satisfy a hankering…read moredesire for pancakes. Here's what we saw: From the outside the restaurant looks good with a dog friendly patio and decent parking around the side of the building. The inside is clean and well maintained with a few TVs to catch games. We sat outside since we had our dog with us and our server was fantastic. He had a lot of jokes, knew when to give us space, and was just incredibly attentive all around. Unfortunately, that's where the positives ran out. The food was very mediocre, granted they just started serving breakfast recently so they're probably trying to work the kinks out. We ordered the pancake breakfast with breakfast potatoes, bacon, and Texas toast as well as the chillaquiles with beef fajita. The pancakes were very thin and chewy, definitely not a high quality batter and not moist. The bacon likewise was chewy and the toast was, well, toast. The best part of the dish were the breakfast potatoes which had a good texture and flavor to them. As for the chillaquiles, it was decent. A bit of a messy plate but nothing that took away from the meal. The beans, tortilla chips, etc were good but the best part was the beef fajita, seasoned well and pretty juicy. Again, it's hard to write this place off as a 3 star because we think they're a work in progress on the breakfast side and likely have better food on other parts of the menu, we can just only write about our experience. Service was phenomenal, that cannot be understated. Likely a place we will try again if ever back in SPI and hopefully we can rate higher next time!

To start with, there weren't many tables with customers, and sufficient staff was on the floor. We were greeted with scowls and crappy attitudes. Not very welcoming if you know what I mean. So after ordering, we got our mozzarella stick that were hot and tasty, but, a BIG But...... We were served an oval plate, not platter with about 10 french fries that didn't even cover the plate! Are you kidding me? Plus they were not even hot. We expected a huge heap of fries, most restaurants serve!! And I think it was $6.99! We were speechless. Never again. WHAT A J O K E !!!!!

I ordered takeout for lunch, but by the time I got back to work, the paper bag was completely soaked through with oil or grease. The fries were soggy, limp, and lacked any crunch whatsoever. The burger wasn't much better--just as greasy as the fries, with hot, soggy lettuce and a single slice of mushy tomato. The burger itself was also disappointingly small, more comparable in size to something you'd find in a Happy Meal. The meat in the burger was flavorless textures filler felt like eating beans with bread. Honestly, the best part of the meal was the can of Dr. Pepper that came with the combo. If you're looking for a better experience, I recommend Joe's Burger Stand or Ernie's Burger Stand instead. I won't be returning.

So the owners son was running around all over the place and came up to our table to offer my Son cookies. I kindly told the boy no thank you and hand him his cookies back. Shortly after that the owner walks up to me shouting "don't f#@cking touch my son!" After telling him, "I didn't touch your son I just gave him his cookies back" he then threatened to get into a physical altercation with me repeatedly saying, "You wanna go outside or what?" As I mentioned the food is definitely not worth the price and the ownership needs serious improvement on their customer service.

So I don't understand where I went wrong but My girls and I was treated like crap by THE OWNER TOM! So everything was decent until we received our food. I immediately noticed my girls was served more food than what the menu read. So I called the waitress over and advised her that I ordered the little ones (menu lingo) 2 peice chicken strips and fries. Instead we were brought a plate with 4 strips,fries, and 2 pieces of toast. She was persistent that I didn't say little ones and also said I should've made myself more clear by saying kids chicken strips, I was using their menu lingo, as I do anywhere else. I expect them to know their own menu but apparently not or she just didn't hear me. But that doesn't rule out that I said it. so she went and talked it over w/ whomever. Before my girls even touched their plate, I brought this to her attention in case they wanted to take the extra food off but she didn't so we continued with our meals. My daughters order from the kids menu for a reason because as I suspected it was was too much food and they only ate 2 strips and some fries. Mind you the plates they brought to my girls were 15.99 each compared to the little ones being 9.99 each. I looked at the ticket and noticed only $6 was taken off one meal. So I asked the waitress if I can please speak with a manager. This is where it got scary and uncomfortable for my girls and I so...TOM the OWNER came out and for 1 WAS DRUNK!! So he asked me what's going on and I explained everything and how I tried to get it settled before the food was touched and how I did request little ones chicken strips and it may have just been an error between the waitress and I. Even if it was impossible to make the change at that point he was the MOST RUDE,UNPROFESSIONAL PERSON and then to be DRUNK at his place of business. He basically was telling me there was no change going to be made since I didn't say the word *kids*... so I told him I'm not paying for that. So he says I'm calling the cops and I respond with go ahead I don't care. Again,mind you there was other people sitting around us and he was talking pretty loud for something so simple. There was no reason to be so passive aggressive. He asked me what I wanted to do with the food and I told him it's up to him it's his food to deal with. So after him saying he's going to call the cops I decided I was going to go to the front and away from everyone so they can enjoy their time. My girls and I waited in the front for the cops to come but they never did, instead TOM THE OWNER came out again and tells me...you can go now, get out of here and don't ever come back. YOU GOT IT BUDDY I WON'T EVER EVER EVER GO BACK TO THAT PLACE. I didn't have to end up paying for anything because he wanted to just leave at that point. but I would've rather had paid for our meals we requested but he didn't want it so we left. I wish I would have read the reviews before because I would have DEFINITELY!!!! Went some where else after seeing a review a woman posted 2 months ago, about there being rats running around. That is DISGUSTING My daughters left feeling sad, and embarrassed that they heard this man not only talk me in the way he did but then says he was going to call the cops . They were telling me they should have just ate all the food like it was their fault but I told them no we shouldn't be treated like this anywhere we go for any reason as long as we stay respectful, and calm. We went to have a good time after a long week of work and school and this what we had to deal with. For him to treat a woman and her daughters this way is uncalled for. THIS PALCE NEEDS TO BE EVALUATED AND THE OWNER NEEDS GOD, REHAB AND, HIS MOTHER OR FATHER TO SHOW HIM HOW TO TREAT PEOPLE in general BUT mostly WOMEN AND CHILDREN BETTER. I HAVE THE INTERACTION ON VIDEO BUT IM NOT ABLE TO POST IT ON HERE BUT I DID TAKE A SCREEN SHOT FROM THE VIDEO.

This is good, quality, consistent grub and more than worth the price they charge. The dining room is spacious and clean and the best part is the self-serve accouterments bar. I like to dig into the ocean of sliced dill Pickles, ripe, red, firm tomorrow slices, jalapeños, onions... it's always perfectly the way you want it when you get to add the extras yourself. It's an ingenious business model and makes a really good burger really great! Wings were awesome too, another favorite was the chicken strips.... No processed food here ... all fresh, and pretty fast to the table too. Staff is professional and courteous. The owner is there a lot and you can tell he cares! This is a highly recommended eatery, well worth the trip from anywhere in the county!
