I'm in Yakima for a convention and decided to eat breakfast at Wafffle's Cafe…read more When I walked through the doors I saw a couple friends seated at the table. I wasn't expecting to see them and happily joined them for breakfast. I ordered a Country Omelette because of the white gravy that is layered on top of the eggs. I really wished I had taken a photo, but I was distracted by talking with my friends. While we were there our server apologized for delaying our order because someone else had ordered the challenge breakfast!! Personally, I think it was an effort to save money as the order came from a group of 4 adults and 1 child. I was not able to verify if my theory was right though because that group was in a different part of the restaurant. My friends and I enjoyed a pleasant breakfast with tasty food. My country omelette was cooked perfectly and I loved the gravy on top of the eggs.

The service was friendly, and I'd say that everyone made me feel welcome, they seemed warm and it was early in the morning and sometime you can get people who aren't the friendliest. I had an orange juice and a caramel macchiato for my drink, and then I had the Benedict which I posted a picture of with the stuffed hashbrowns. I will say that the Benedict did not allow me. I would give them a 6.9 out of 10. Maybe it's me, but it just didn't have the flavor I was expecting. The stuffed hash browns were good. I give them an 8.9 out of 10 and as a total for the experience, I would rate it roughly.... An 8/10. I think that I would be back to try them for something different. I definitely would encourage you guys to try it yourselves

We've been going here for years, but this was our first time visiting on a holiday for Mother's…read moreDay. It's also one of our favorite places to bring out-of-town guests. Everything on the Mother's Day menu was so delicious. It had 5 or 6 specials to choose from, and each one came with a drink. To top it off, every seat had a cookie waiting for guests, which was such a thoughtful and beautiful touch. The portions were generous, and the service -- as always -- was amazing. My relatives were very impressed, and it made the experience even more special. It may be spendy to others but it is worth it, and the wait is worth it as well.

The ambiance was nice and the servers were very sweet, but I can't see paying over $50 for lunch for two people on a regular basis. The food was ok, nothing spectacular to match the price. This might be a good place for a special occasion, but probably not somewhere we'd choose for an everyday casual lunch.

The only thing missing was the tabletop jukebox controls. After being shown to my table and reviewing the menu I opted for the Taco Omelette. It was made perfectly and I enjoyed every bite. There was an abundance of diced jalapeños and made it a nice, spicy breakfast. The wait staff was friendly and appreciated my joke. I enjoyed my visit and meal at Mel's Diner in Yakima, WA.

Driving east on Rt. 82 I found this lunch option by searching 'food along the route' on my map…read more The roads were under construction when we visited with 'business access' to their parking lot through the construction site. Parking is available on three sides of the building and looks large enough to serve the Diner. A sign just inside instructs 'wait to be seated'. There are two dining rooms and counter seating. Reat rooms are near the entrance, between the two dining areas. We sat in view of the open kitchen. The host dropped menus on the table and brought over waters. We were given a nice long time to look over our menu's. Once we put them down, our waitress came over to take our order. A Senior and Kiddie menu are on the back cover of the menu. Their usual burger is 1/2lb. The senior burger is 1/3 lb. Beverages include coffee, hot tea, cocoa, milk, lemonade, soda and milkshakes. The menu is diner comfort foods: grilled cheese, burgers, liver and onions and so on. The burger is tasty and moist, served with fresh lettuce and tomato, and pickle slices. Served with fries, cheese and bacon are a bit more for each. The taco salad was very fresh with salsa and sour cream on the side to dress the salad. An excellent size for lunch. The restrooms are older and do not smell clean. The restroom I used is not handicapped accessible but there is a grab bar in one stall to assist. No diaper station. The diner has a retro decor with car details in shades of aqua, red and black. Signs of aging are present, but stilll this is a charming diner. The food was good. The prices reasonable.

My Review: Great service, lovely ambiance, and DELICIOUS…read morefood. You can't beat the freshness as this is a farm to table restaurant. They change the menu frequently it seems. They sat us right away at the bar even though we did not have a reservation. I very much enjoyed my drink and looking over the very unique menu. Although it is very expensive I'd like to give is another go and try more from the menu. My Husbands Review: My husband was disappointed with crafted. The portion sizes are pretty small despite the server saying 1 plate would like be enough for us to share. We had planned to likely get 2 plates to try more of the menu, but for the price it just wasn't worth it. It was 50$ for the brisket. While it was delicious, it wasn't special enough for 50 dollars. So if you're hungry and looking to get full for 2 you're looking at well over 100 dollars. Just a heads up!

After letting the hostess know that we had arrived for our reservation, they let us know that they were busy and that we had to complete our meal within an a time frame. After being shown to our table, we were given menus, and then we begin to browse. We decided to get the goat cheese appetizer. This is really interesting because it came with green onions and cranberries. Overall, this dish tasted really good. It comes hot so it's best to eat it right away. We then also got the sausage and pepperoni pizza to share. The portion was a good size and it was delicious. You can tell it came straight out of the oven. For our main entrées, we got the hot sausage and veg penne pasta, as well as the Gorgonzola lemon tortellini. Both of the portions were a good size. I personally enjoyed the Gorgonzola lemon tortellini, which was tasty and very rich. My partner got the hot sausage and veg penne pasta and unfortunately it didn't hit. They said it just didn't mesh well together and needed a sauce or something to bring it together. After a meal, we were able to get some to go boxes and enjoy our leftovers the next day. We did not end up using all of the time that they had told us initially.

I especially appreciated that the order came with Thousand Island dressing on the side and I was able to request horseradish...which is surprisingly hard to find elsewhere. There was enough for me to take half of my lunch home. The sandwich came with very good French fries, served with fry sauce, though I asked for a side of ranch. Everything was fresh, hot, and satisfying. One can upgrade to salad or soup for an extra $2. The other guests ordered the Clubhouse Quesadilla appetizer for her lunch; another had the Yakisoba with Pork and the other had the Avocado Chicken Burger with just lettuce (no bread). Each of their meals looked great. Our server, Peggy, was wonderful--attentive without being intrusive, friendly, and on top of everything we needed.
