This place has been on my radar for a couple weeks now, since the popped up on a breakfast search…read more It's a bit of a drive for me, but I made it a point to get by as soon as I could because what's better than waffles and chicken?? First, the location. I had doggo with me so went through the drive through. There is signage, but you still have to look for it. Drive through is on the back side of the building. Don't be scared, it was an easy process. The hardest part was figuring out what to order! Second, Service was quick and friendly but the speaker is a bit quiet, so be sure to turn your radio down so y'all can hear each other. The price! I ordered the #1 chicken and waffles plate and added on a small ice caramel coffee for a grand total of UNDER $12. That's extremely reasonable, imo. Finally, I ordered the chicken and waffles that I'd been staring at the past few weeks. The chicken tenders were crispy, hot, and perfectly seasoned so as not to overshadow the waffles. The waffle was fresh and hot, not too sweet, and complemented the chicken and syrup. The iced caramel coffee, while sweet, didn't make me feel like I was just drinking sugar. I could still taste the coffee, and it wasn't bitter either! So, basically, don't miss a visit to Elsa's!! So yummy and a local business. Support local!!

This is a family restaurant back country vibe local eatery with a huge selection of omelettes and scrambles. After pouring over the options for some time, I settled on the meat lovers scramble with over easy eggs on top and marbled rye toast. My food was seasoned well and very tasty. Our server was friendly and attentive, my coffee was never empty! If we are ever passing through again I would stop to try some of the other selections as well.

The guys on the grill work so hard i don't know how they do it, bravo guys you are the heart of Stateside The reuben sandwiches... the D-Town. The russian dressing. The coleslaw. The sauerkraut. It's so so good! Incredible really. I crave their food all the time. (and they offer half sandwich half soup orders too for a great price) The smash burger is to die for the fries are done right (i'm picky)! Inside, lots of seating, cool mural on the back wall, old school casual vibes. My only complaint is they close at 4pm and I can never get my order in on time If they offered mimosas and later hours it could be my favorite spot in the county lol

First…read moreimpressions were a typical nice small town diner, simple, tables were clean and wait staff was friendly and moving with due urgency, all fine and good. Had a seat and ordered a simple breakfast of 2 scrambled eggs white toast on white bread and a coffee. Out of curiosity I looked over the menu and saw the ~$20 omelletes that have become the norm these days, ridiculous. My order arrived quickly enough. The scrambeled eggs were the typical dried out flat blob on a plate, this is what passes for scrambeled eggs these days, toast equals wonder bread with fake butter on one side. This combination should be $4 max, nope $7. how 2 pieces of wonderbread and 2 dried out, flattened egg beaters is $7 is a mystery to me, those are omellete prices. Now the kicker, cup of coffee $4, this is a folgers crystal special with the little thimbles of "creamers"... $4?? Restaurant pricing has become absurd, yes food is up 15-20%, restaurant pricing is up 80-90% So Fernando's, what can I say, the staff is doing their job, the place is clean, just stop robbing people. I would never go back for sub standard food at premium price points, all you 5-star fanboys keep emptying your wallet for hospital cafeteria eggs and coffee, its your money.

This place has a very fun atmosphere, but the service is lacking and the food could be better…read more The kitchy decor and the fun names of dishes on the menu are great. I also liked the mismatched mugs. They seemed seriously understaffed, and service was very slow. We ordered drinks, and waited long enough for someone to come back to take our food order that we were starting to wonder if they thought we were only getting drinks. There was another long wait for our food. When it arrived, it arrived in batches. One person ordered three tacos, but the order was entered wrong, so they only got one to start, and they had to wait quite a while for the other two. The food was good overall, but the portions were quite small. I did like the Bourbon Street French toast, particularly the caramel sauce. It could have used more bananas though. The fried pickles were good, as were the spicy mozzarella sticks. The steak omelet's sauce was odd. The nachos were good. The coffee and lattes were good. The regular orange juice had less juice than one poured for our toddler. Overall it was alright, but I don't know that I'd go back.

I got the chicken and waffles, which had orange-jalapeño syrup and ginger-maple butter. The chicken was so crispy and moist, and the waffles weren't too heavy. Their cold brew was also really good. My boyfriend got the fish tacos, and some sort of cherry soda. I can't remember exactly, but it was good. The tacos were yummy! The fish was crispy, the sauce was great... it was slightly too fishy tasting for me, but I'm picky abt that sort of thing. He liked them tho. 10/10, I have already recommended to others.

I had no idea who was supposed to be our server until someone apologized for 'being inattentive'. So I guess it was the bartender? 2. I was served cold prime rib. After I sent it back someone came to me to ask me to 'just let them fix this one' by reheating. I'm aware that isn't going to go well, but I was so surprised at the audacity I felt obligated. It was fine, but definitely nothing to want ever again. Overall it was an incredibly disappointing experience.
