    Our view from the booth

    Walking in to The Cameo Cafe was like a blast from the past! That quintessential old diner coffee smell really got me, in a good way! I'm giving the restaurant 4 stars mostly for atmosphere and nostalgia. The food wasn't bad, but it wasn't great. The hash browns were perfect, but both the hollandaise and sausage gravy tasted like they were made from packets. The waitress was pleasant and efficient. The view from our window booth was nice and there was a bunny hopping around. It took a while to get our check, but that felt more like they weren't rushing us and not inefficiency. All in all, it was a pretty nice experience with the restaurant itself, I just wish the gravy and hollandaise were scratch made. That would make it 5 stars for me.

    Every-time I come here the food is so good! I recommend the Monte Cristo or the Biscuits and Gravy. This is becoming a normal breakfast/brunch spot for us!

    Early morning breakfast at one of our favorite diners. Served fresh hot breakfast within minutes by a very welcoming waitress. We enjoyed seating in the booth and looking out at the golf course.

    Their food is dope. the food is tasty. The inside is so cool. The food came in less than 10 minutes.

    Chicken fried steak, 2 eggs, hash browns, and choice of toast.

    Stopped in for breakfast on a Friday morning. Place had several tables full of what seemed be regulars. Waitress was buzzing around with grace as she took care of everyone's coffee top offs and hot food delivery. We ordered from their weekday early bird breakfast menu, which is a decent savings! If you can make it in on a weekday for breakfast, give Cameo Cafe a try.

    Met a few friends here for a gathering. We had wonderful food and great service at the bar. Lots of laughs and fun times.!

    Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs

    Definitely NOT Vegan Friendly!! They put chicken broth even in an item they call tofu pancakes? We did order tofu style entree for brunch but not anything recommended. I settled for an order of hash browns. My friends got bacon/eggs type and they did not seem to like the bacon. It's chaos inside if busy, and getting a table seemed chaotic as well. Warning about their own seasonings, have beef seasoning inside them, but clearly labeled. They do not even offer milk alternatives for dairy free cream for your coffee. I'd say pass on this place, especially if you have diet restrictions. They cannot accommodate most of them.

    Kids and I strolled up on a Sunday morning around 9:30, the place is pretty dang full. Luckily there are 2 open tables inside (the hostess offered us outdoor seating but uhhh, it was 40 something degrees so no thanks!) so we chose one and were seated rather quickly. Our server approaches and asks about drinks; I ask for a Bloody Mary while my kids ask about what kinds of juice and milk are available. Our sweet server is an older lady who can't quite hear them, so she leans in and ask for them to repeat the question. This happens again during our ordering of food and when I am checking in about my cocktail. We decide to ask someone else for napkins lol. Our server is nice and friendly but doesn't check up on us but once as she notices our food has been brought to the table ("Everyone good?" she says as she walks past. We politely nod, she's still moving anyway). Oh well. The Bloody Mary is the best I have had, and this is coming from an enthusiast! Over all, the food is good, the drinks are good, the atmosphere is very casual, and the prices aren't outrageous. I'll be back im sure!

    #5 2 eggs over medium with hashbrowns and dry wheat

    Looking at the reviews here, I see a lot of indifference vs hostility. Their layout is a little confusing. There's a bar if you go through the right side door at the entrance and a cafe if you go through the left one. Sitting in the dining room felt a lot like sitting at a garage sale with the old white full size piano playing centerpiece to the room, retro lighting and the old phonograph sitting next to a Bunn coffee warmer on a side table. They have a number of booths as well as tables in there. We stood for about a minute before someone saw us and led us to a booth looking out at the neighboring golf course. The little lawn outside is well-kept and pretty to look at. The golfers less so but I chose to stare down my BF instead to see if I could get him to do my bidding without saying anything. It didn't work and he ordered French Toast with bacon and a side of two eggs that he couldn't finish. Lol. I had the 2 egg and hashbrown combo with dry wheat toast. I thought everything was great. BF enjoyed his French Toast and was delighted that the bacon wasn't cooked to a crisp, but just cooked: he way he likes it. Others claim their food could use more seasoning but compared to Carol's Corner, this place is a find. The portions are smaller but they taste better. Bread and coffee are pretty average and you're better off ordering eggs over medium like I did vs scrambled which were a little rubbery. I think Carol's wins over diners by pricing their breakfast a bit lower and offering larger portions. BF's French Toast was almost $20 and my combination was $13.50. The drinks were what pushed the bill to extra at $3.75 each. All in all, I'd come here for breakfast for something close, but not too often as you can make something just as good with a little effort at home. *Returned the following weekend for another #5 which I enjoyed as much as the week before. My bf tried the chorizo burrito which he seemed solid but not great. Sounds like he was exposed to a lot of great chorizo growing up in Texas. I suspect he'll be a French Toast regular. I otoh have a hard time straying from those hash browns....

    Veggie Omelette, #3 Hotcake with Meat and 2 Eggs

    First things first: PLEASE UPDATE YOUR MENU PRICING ON YOUR WEBSITE! I understand inflation but it was a little shocking to find the actual menu prices are $5 MORE from what they have listed on their website currently. But that aside, to be fair, if what you are looking for is a old school classic diner vibe, this is the place for you. The parking lot is huge so plenty of parking. They had lots of seating variations including round tables for night groups, booths, and small tables, and what looked like to be a private room as well when you first walk in. There is a bar/lounge on the other side too. The floors are carpeted with some interesting eclectic decor. My friend got the veggie omelette and Hashbrowns with sourdough toast, and I got the hot cakes with 2 eggs and sausage patty. On the table you have all the condiments you need and some homemade hot sauce and jam. My hot cake was huge! But unfortunately it was cold and chewy when I expected hot and fluffy, honestly for $19 I really expected more. The service is friendly but we did have to wait a little to flag our waitress down to put in our order. You pay at the cash register by the door on the way out. It did get quite busy as it was a Saturday morning, and like I said if you are looking for classic diner food this is the right spot, but I personally didn't think the price was worth the food I had.

Given the location, I admittedly expected the environment to be possibly run down, but I was completely wrong! Lisa's is warm, friendly, and meticulously clean, with well-maintained furniture and a lovely old-school vibe. ​The service was truly exceptional--ultra friendly and very attentive from start to finish. I felt constantly cared for with proactive refills of coffee and water. At one point, our server even overheard a side conversation and brought something over without us asking! That level of detail-oriented service is hard to beat. ​The food was great standard breakfast fare, and I was impressed with most of it. The Chicken Fried Steak was good and a decent size. I found all the portions to be the perfect amount--not too large and not too small--though most people would probably say they were generous! ​My one criticism is reserved for the pancakes (which I tried, but thankfully didn't order). While they were very large and looked great, they unfortunately lacked flavor and had an odd aftertaste. They just felt spongy and a little "off." ​ ​Everything else was pretty great! This is definitely a place I would come back to--perfect for a family meal or even for a solo visit to enjoy breakfast while reading a book. Overall, I'm already looking forward to my next trip to try something new!

When it…read morecomes to quality and variety of food, and the excellent service, Ondus stands apart and I would stack it up against non-hotel restaurants. They are a scratch kitchen, meaning everything is prepared in their kitchen and it's noticeable. We ran into the chef and he said they make everything but "the bread and the ketchup!" For lunch, we had the meat lover's pizza (real pieces of bacon) and ceasars salad (with an actual anchovy) - both delicious. At breakfast, we got the benedict and spinach mushroom omelet that came with incredible potatoes (trying to figure out how to replicate these!) Also got a side of bacon, which was melt-in-the-mouth good. Super tasty. We only had breakfast and lunch, but we were very happy and would come back in a heartbeat. Every server was incredibly friendly and solicitous, checking in on us with Goldilocks frequency (i.e., just right). Prices were also reasonable and, if this isn't enough for you, how would you like a view of the river while you dine?!? There is a lovely patio but you don't have to sit outside to enjoy the view.

Unfortunately, my first visit today will likely be my last as the eggs I ordered were very poorly poached and the server failed to stop back to check on the quality of the breakfast or if we needed anything else. Even when presenting us with our check, did not ask how everything was particularly when it was obvious that the eggs were uneaten. This also in the context of the restaurant not being very busy where you might forgive a server who is neglectful due to other tables. I'm sure the quality and service is normally fine as I see other reviews saying so, but as a first impression my experience was very disappointing.
