We had a group of five celebrating a birthday. We waited TWO HOURS to get our food. We stayed because we were enjoying visiting, and the waitress kept telling us it was coming.
Turns out the cook had cold symptoms that could be Covid and was told not to come in so a new cook was handled the whole restaurant. I feel bad for that cook. The food was good but the waitress should have been straight forward with us instead of saying it was coming right up. They should have told new customers entering the restaurant that they couldn't handle any more guests till they got caught up.

Called to place a to-go order on Saturday Jan 8th evening at 7:45pm. Call went to answering machine saying they were busy helping customers & to try again. Called again, same. No biggie drove to the restaurant arriving at 8pm. Walked in & was told they are closed. I asked closed early thought you were open until 9. They said didn’t have anyone come in since 7pm so they chose to close early. What? Really? On a Saturday evening. No offer of a to go piece of pie or a drink no offer other than why they thought there was no visitors for an hour. Could have answered the phone or been more friendly

I understand being understaffed. Although, it should not affect the customer service aspect of it all. It was not busy at all. This was my second time with this server. She did not give the customer service I expected. She didn't offer any desert or boxes, she simply dropped the check and left without a word. Not even a thank you. After dropping off the food, she didn't ask if we needed anything more. Food was decent.

You'd be better off hitting up one of the other restaurants in town. The owner is spacey, cringey, and gives off strange vibes. She didn't even ask if we wanted anything to drink. The food was average, nothing special, and they were missing many staples sides that you'd think would be in every sit-down restaurant. Reviews are rare for me, but this was definitely an odd experience. Try the Asian BBQ down the street instead.

My new favorite restraunt.
I had bowl of chili and shared plate of sweet potato 🍟 w my son who had the bacon and blue burger and the amber XX- a little salty, but we both loved our meals.
Great waitresses. Only one cook. So food was a little slow last time we were here. Not so this time. Waitress will give you an accurate estimate.

This place was great! We stopped in on our way through Weed and they had some excellent food. I had a burger, nothing fancy, but I'm a simple man and it was very good. I'll definitely be stopping in next time I'm in the area. As an added bonus, they have a really cool sign. I had to get my camera out to get a picture of it.

It's wild. I feel like I could give this place 5 stars or 2 stars. Let's talk it out!
The food: my hubby and I decided on breakfast for dinner. I got the "California" breakfast burrito with hash browns and a biscuit. I know hash browns are pretty basic, but these were the best hash browns I've ever had! I can't tell you what made them special, but they were. My burrito looked thrown together. The eggs were over-cooked and the tortilla was under-cooked and tasted old/stale. The avocado and mushrooms were perfect. I didn't enjoy my biscuit but I think that was

Came in early. My plate was cracked, was given no utensils, I asked for some about 15 minutes before food came out was still not given any until about 15 minutes after my food had already came out. I understand that it was busy but I should not have had to wait for utensils 15 after my food came out. Good was ok, people were friendly.

Super friendly staff! They waved us off the morning prior saying that we would be behind a group of 19 firefighters and they only had one cook! We were grateful for that (and the firefighters!). We came back the next day and got behind the same firefighters but still got seated right away and got our food in a timely fashion.
The food was what you'd expect from a breakfast joint. The Belgian waffles were fluffy and tasty. The omelets weren't huge but sufficient quantity and sufficiently meaty.
The potato's (both country style and hash browns) were a bit of a disappointment

I stopped while traveling. I sat at the counter, which was fine & had a great view of just how crazy it was for the servers. This place was packed the whole time I was there, but ther wait staff acted like it was all normal. Never missing a beat, not running out of my iced tea & food received quuckly. I had the patty melt which was yummy.
Bonnie, who seemed to know every soul that came through the door was ridiculously organized, wonderfully happy & polite & knew exactly was going on around her at all times.
Great place.

On my way to Portland and decided to stop and support this little place.
I ordered the open biscuit with sausage egg, and topped with gravy. With a side of extra crispy hash brown.
Let me just say this is probably one of the best breakfast places I've been too. The is out was fluffy, and tasty, and it was light, it's not as heavy as some places, and the sausage was amazing. I read a lot of reviews about the sausage and the tellers were right! I can taste the spice which was nice. Also I asked for extra crispy hash browns and the hash browns were actually crispy!

We are always in a huge rush when we go through Weed, either on our way to Oregon or back home. Today we were finally taking a more leisurely pace home and decided to stop for lunch. Of course, I consulted Yelp and this place popped up. I'm a vegetarian so my options are usually limited but when I saw the huge menu I figured there would be options.
There were a few, and also a salad bar. The whole way there my husband and I said we were in the mood for salad. Instead he ended up getting the mushroom burger and I ordered a patty melt with a Gardenburger. I had planned to get a side salad but

As anyone who has read my reviews knows I am picky about breakfast and especially critical of how my eggs are cooked.
Nailed it!! Eggs in the omelette were cooked PERFECTLY! The sausage inside ...perfect. The bacon inside....perfectly crispy and fresh..hash browns were on point also!
Super friendly staff, clean bathrooms, cool decor.
This is WELL worth making a stop for a meal.

Worst. Service. Ever.
No water, the only reason we got this was because the manager seated us. After that the "waitress" just ignored us. We managed to get in a food order which she assured us was "no problem". Um thanks?
"Cocktails" is actually 3 pre packaged cocktails by Hornitos. Margarita, Manhattan and Old Fashioned. But you may want to have done stashed in the car since service was sooooo bad.
Food was ok, we had French toast and turkey (they were out of meatloaf) and it was typical fare.
Sorry Alexis I think you need to find a different profession

If you're going through Weed and you need to eat, this is the place to go! Stopped and got a breakfast. This place is very cleaned and well maintained which is always a good indication of how much they care about their business and reputation. Food was good, had the corned beef hash and eggs. Not a canned corned beef, asked for my hash browns extra crispy and they delivered! It's a small thing but I always ask for extra crispy at restaurants and I only get it about 1/2 the time. The server was super nice and she was hustling around that whole place and kept my coffee full, checked on

Best food in town, just like your grandmother cooked it, especially the breakfasts. I eat here often and they are the nicest bunch of Americans I have ever met. Dennis says. Stay a while, and eat something it's all good. Back again this time I had to sandwich I forgot what kind of sandwich it was just have to look at the picture and guess I'll tell you this much it was delicious Dennis says five stars

Food was delicious and the service was perfect. I had eggs Benedict and asked them to sub the English muffin for one of the big, fluffy biscuits and it was no problem. Also asked for extra hollandaise sauce that came out with the meal. My fiancé ordered the pancakes, they were awesome!
Perfect spot for breakfast and I'm sure any other meal of the day. We will be back!
