This is one of the go two places that my St. Louis family takes visitors to eat when they are in…read moretown. We came in today for a breakfast prior to airport drop off, and it did not disappoint. I had a veggie omelette with egg whites. The omelettes come with pancakes. The most surprising thing about my breakfast was how fluffy the omelette was. It literally bounced when the server placed the plate on the table. My two little ones had a half order of brioche French toast, and a strawberry waffle. They really specialize in the breakfast breads here, so the pancakes, French toast, and waffle were all delicious. Our other family members also enjoyed their food. One of the best things about this place is that the food comes out extremely fast while also being hot, fresh, and well-made. They were popping on a Saturday morning, but we were able to be sat right away at 7 AM in the 7 AM hour. By the time we left around 8:30, there were people waiting for tables.

In spite of the Toast app, we are seated. I really like the people here and the omelets are…read moreespecially yummy! I knew it was going to be a problem when they changed how reservations are made and waitlists are "maintained" Well, I'm fairly certain that First Watch is pleased that The Original Pancake House has made this uninformed decision. Regular diners here should know the decision was not made in Missouri. Obviously! The staff the menu and the ambiance is not negatively affected. So, stick with your favorite choices. And let the staff know we understand. Brunch was excellent. Service was prompt. Very good choice for breakfast, brunch, or lunch! It's all as it should be in here.

We were headed to the airport and I searched for a 'diner like' place just off the interstate around an hour away. I came across Powhatan, and while the outside didn't look like much in the photos, the food looked great and the reviews were excellent. I bookmarked it, and sure enough it didn't disappoint. The outside is a basic restaurant attached to a hotel/motel. Think side of the road bare bones motel. Honestly, if I hadn't read the reviews I would have just kept on driving. Inside was very nice - not fancy but very bright, clean and welcoming. There was also a small slot machine area off to the side if that's your thing. I ordered the Pocahontas Pride, which was chicken friend steak, two eggs, hash brown casserole (I opted for plain hash browns) buttermilk biscuits and sausage gravy. I think it was $15. And it was enough food for two people easily. Very good, and very filling. My daughter ordered boneless wings (I tried a couple since there was too much food for her) and she and I both loved them. I'm normally hesitant to order wings outside of my normal places, but she will order them anywhere and she gave them great praise. She also added 1/2 order of onion rings which were both great and ample - I thought they actually got the order wrong there were so many. Wife wasn't feeling well, so she ordered a simple order of hash browns and liked them. All in all, a great experience for a quick stop during a long drive. Again, without reading the reviews in advance, I doubt I would have ended up at Powhatan. But I'm glad I did!
