    Shasta Veggie Omelette with hash browns and toast
    Julie W.

    Ordered a 2-omelette Shasta Veggie Scramble with no sides because I wasn't in the mood for a side and bread. It had cut up veggies and cheese and it actually wasn't bad. I had read some reviewers stating that the food was bland, but my guess is because they are so used to very seasoned/salty foods. I, however, eat fairly healthy and rarely eat out so this was actually not too bad. It wasn't salty and within my ballpark of what I would normally eat at home. The rest of my party enjoyed their meals as well with one having bacon and hash browns, others having eggs with cheese, and pancakes. They had also stated that the coffee was delicious. The waitress was very nice and helpful. The inside of the restaurant is what you would expect from a diner. Not overly decorated, but seating was comfortable. The restaurant also has a shop where you can purchase stuffed bears and desserts, such as cream pies. I was tempted to try one, but thought maybe at another time. Hopefully will return again in the future to try another dish like a sandwich.

    Upon entry is a beautiful coffee bean aroma !!! Passing up tables of large portion plates. My eyes were bigger than my stomach. But the food was delicious and the waiter Ms.Wendy put us on the specials and her recommendation that didn't let us down. Beware: that homemade spicy pan sausage is very spicy!!! But really good

    Tomato Soup of the Day (150-650 cals.)

    What a cute lil diner. I love that the menu is a newspaper that apparently updates, staff were very friendly and attentive and food was great overall. I enjoyed my meatloaf and they had an option for a dinner size or lunch size, but the waitress was kind enough to inform me that if I wanted a cup of soup I might as well get dinner, so I did. They do soup of the day which I find really fun, today's soup was tomato I greatly enjoyed each bite. Onions were good and I was able to substitute my potatoes for hash browns cause I was feeling it. My friend even got to sub his soup of the day for chili. Very friendly and accommodating on how you want to order/eat. Overall would def come again to try other stuff on the menu! P.S. I will say I was not a fan of the cornbread, but everything else was delicious!

    The lunch and the breakfast is amazingggg here! I've been here several times and they always do an excellent job at what they do. The servers are always nice and the food is always good. The overall vibe of this Diner is very comforting and it reminds me of being in a warm cabin. I would highly recommend this place to everyone.

    Welcoming hostess and staff! Let's share what the food is about: *Chicken Avocado Club: 5/5 *Chicken sausage scramble: 2/5 - although it was supposed to be on the healthier and it was a lot of food and the egg whites were overcooked/mixed with a little yolk. It also had a lot of cheese. *Cinnamon Roll French Toast: 3/5 - they had a nice portion, but I think it needed more frosting. *Southern Scramble: 4/5 - not much to say here except that the biscuits are really, really big. The place was really quiet. There wasn't a line when we came in. We really enjoyed our food because of the service. We will definitely be returning and appreciate everyone for being so kind and friendly.

    OUR Biggest - The GRIZZ, check out those hash browns.

    The food was great, especially the hash browns with cheese and bacon!! The burger had bacon chopped up on it so you got bacon in every bite. The pancakes get a thumbs up. Brigette our waitress talks fast but had a good attitude.

    Chicken Fried Steak Omelette (1170 cals.)
    Marian G.

    We came in on Saturday morning and the place was packed. There was a 25 minute so we opted to eat outside. Our server, Kim, was pleasant and attentive. Although the restaurant was packed it was not too loud walking through to the outside dining room. The portions were large and we couldn't eat all of our food. The biscuit itself was a meal! And both dishes weee delicious. There is an extensive menu so you can order pretty much what you want. We will definitely be back.

    House salad (I had already eaten a cucumber slice)
    Isaura C.

    We have been here for breakfast and it was good. We stopped by for dinner and the food was pretty sad. We ordered the chicken fried steak, chicken strips, and kids chicken Alfredo. The chicken fried steak had ground beef texture with a really hard coating. The chicken Alfredo was dry and the noodles looked and felt old. The chicken fried steak came with a house salad and that should have been an indicator of how the rest of the food would be. It was missing all the regular "house salad" stuff. Place was pretty lonely, I thought this would be a good thing because mornings are always so busy. Now we know. Come for breakfast but nothing else. The staff was nice and the fountain drinks were great.

    Build your own with link sausage, eggs, and red white and blue pancakes (upcharge jut worth it)

    Depends on the day you go. The food is good but the service is a roll of the dice. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere.

    this was a weekly lunch for two years…read more deer park stretch. working for a big maintenance contractor. showing up from southern california thinking lunch was going to be something light and temporary it was not southern komfort kitchen became part of the schedule walk in and it's tables full of guys still in it. FR jumpsuits, boots, sleeves rolled, badges clipped. blue coveralls from lyondell, red from shell, a few others mixed in depending on the turnaround situation that week everyone eating like they earned it menu is not subtle chicken fried steak, gravy doing real work, boudin balls, fried everything that can be fried. portions that don't ask questions first few weeks felt like an introduction by month three it was just the system gained about 15 lbs during that stretch which made sense. doctor looked at it and said keep going which was unexpected but appreciated food hits in a very direct way. no interpretation. no explanation. just arrives and solves lunch but the real thing here isn't even the food it's the room this is where stories live you sit down and within five minutes something is already happening at the table next to you. hunting stories, plant stories, equipment stories, things that clearly started somewhere else and are now being finished over lunch there was one that went on for weeks brad handlebar mustache. former linebacker at LSU. the kind of presence where when he starts talking the table reorganizes itself he got into nikon scopes not casually full breakdown. bow hunting. sight lines. clarity. distances. adjustments. what works, what doesn't, who thinks they know and doesn't this was not a one day conversation this was a series every week a new layer by the end of it there was a conclusion that felt fully proven anyone telling a bow hunting story about hitting something without using a nikon scope is lying not mistaken lying and it was delivered with enough conviction that it became part of the operating system there were also discussions about AR-15 setups for family members at christmas, fusing jobs that almost went sideways, and other things that felt like they required this exact room to exist properly you realize after a while that this place isn't just feeding people it's holding conversations that don't happen anywhere else walk out full, slightly heavier than when this whole stretch started, and with information that wasn't necessarily requested but is now permanent five stars this is where lunch turns into something else entirely

    I took my team here, which was close to our office. We got there around 12:30 and got seated right…read moreaway. The service was great, served fresh and fairly quick. The menu had some exotic meats and a good variety of choices choose from. Great southern food and service.
