I felt hash browns should've been cooked longer to add a crunch to it. Similarly the tortilla could be cooked a little more; not crisp but at least lightly browned to give that burrito taste. Sausage was on the light side, needed a bit more. Service was great as always. And food came out fast.

Many mother's day outings here with my daughter before I worked my 13 hour shift serving other moms. It will forever hold the best memories for me. It has been close to 9 years since I have eaten here. Moving towards the north end created a big distance between us. But I was in the area with my neice today so we stopped in for breakfast. There's no other place in Meridian that I'd rather eat breakfast at! I remember this joint when the old owners owned it. It honestly was run down, old and dated. Your typical greasy spoon. My friend, Bob, took it over about 10 years ago and has totally given it the face lift it needed. It's brighter, cleaner and welcoming. I love the fresh flowers with our beautiful country's flag by the front door. I love the flowers painted on the windows too, it gives it such a fun appearance. I love the bright white building with the black trim. I love the bright lines in the parking lot. It's been revamped outside and it's gorgeous. Inside of the venue has had work done as well. The drapes were red, white and blue to go with the 4th of July. I love that they decorated for America's birthday. I'm sure they change it through the different holidays. The lighting is brighter. The decor is simple and fun. It just looks cleaner and fresh inside. It's not the old greasy spoon it used to be. My neice and I decided to sit at the bar, that's where my daughter and I used to eat at all the time. Kaitlyn greeted us and got our drinks started. I got hot coffee and my neice got an orange juice. I appreciate the creamer they had neatly placed by the condiments. It was nice not to have them just thrown in a bowl. Little details like that are fantastic. After breezing over the menu, we got our food placed with Kaitlyn. I got the popeye omelet with only 2 eggs instead of 3, cheddar instead of Swiss with no onions or mushrooms. I got fruit instead of bread and potatoes. My neice got the Belgian waffle with strawberries and whipped cream on top with a side of hashbrowns. My omelet was cooked perfectly. It had a generous amount of spinach. We know spinach shrinks really bad when it's cooked and vanishes. You can tell they didn't hold back with the spinach. The cheese was nice and melty in the middle. Even though I asked for my omelet to be 1 egg shy of it's normal 3, I only ate half. It was a hearty omelet. My fruit was ok. It wasn't fresh fruit but I didn't mind. I ate a much as I could. My neice polished half of her huge waffle. It looked tasty with the berries and whipped cream. The side of hashbrowns was no joke. It was such a huge portion! We ate about a third of it and took the rest home to enjoy later. My friend, Bob has done such an amazing job making this place his own. Express Cafe will always be one of Meridian's best breakfast joints. The amount of years it's been around speaks for itself. I'm so proud of Bob and all that he's done. The food was good today. Service from Kaitlyn was fantastic! I'm just sad that it took my close to 9 years to come back. That's going to change and I look forward to having Express Cafe be a part of my day sometime soon. I won't allow another 9 years to pass by.

The food absolutely delivered. The hash browns were one of the highlights--perfectly crispy on the…read moreoutside while still soft and warm on the inside. They had that golden, slightly buttery crunch that makes you keep going back for "just one more bite." The sausage patties were just as impressive--juicy, well-seasoned, and cooked just right with a nice sear that added a ton of flavor. Together, they made a simple breakfast feel way above average. What really made the experience stand out, though, was the service. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive without being overbearing, and made the whole place feel welcoming from the moment I walked in. It felt like they genuinely cared about making sure everything was perfect. Between the comforting food and the amazing service, it's the kind of place you leave already thinking about when you'll come back next.

But then waited about 10 minutes before waiting for someone to take our order, while watching multiple waitresses walk past us. Once we did order, I went with lunch (rueben sandwich with fries? and hubby went with breakfast (chicken fried steak, hashbrowns, and toast). The sandwich was delicious!! But the waitress didn't ask what side I wanted and just gave me fries. I could have said something, but was hungry and didn't want to wait for it to be fixed. Hubby loved the gravy, but thought the actual chicken fried steak was just ok. The breading was meh and the meat was more of a hamburger texture rather than cube steak. His hashbrowns were also very under cooked and the oil tasted old. Despite those issues, we'd still go back and talked about what we'd try next. Once we placed our order the waitstaff became much more attentive and was very friendly.

Not to mention, the all-you-can-eat salad and soup bar was calling my name. Hubby and I drove 40 minutes from our home to be dazzled. This place is a tad dated and little dark, but I actually loved that aspect. We were warmly greeted and sat in a booth in the back of restaurant. We also loved that too. Our server was very friendly and helpful. My husband ordered the country fried steak with fries and mac 'n cheese, I opted for the salad bar + half sandwich combo, choosing the cranberry chicken pecan salad sandwich solely due to the glowing yelp reviews. The salad bar was first...the salad mix looks like the bagged American mix you can get at the grocery store. There's a nice variety of dry and veggie toppings, though I wasn't a fan of the carrot chunks in the place of shreds or the yellowing cucumber slices. The salad bar also consists of a nacho, soup, baked potato and ice cream (soft serve) bar, so it's almost like a mini Souplantation. Wished they had the soups labeled, as I had no idea what was what. I think one was a chili and a loaded baked potato soup (which I tried and it was good). The nacho chips were very stale and the chunky potato wedges were very cold. The salad was fresh, though some of the veggie toppings looked and tasted a little old...the ranch dressing was the standard ranch, just average. Their chicken salad sandwich was very good, though a tad under seasoned...needed pepper or salt. Their chicken salad sandwich veggies were super fresh and the bread was thick and soft. My husband was not a fan of the country fried steak. He said that it was obviously a previously frozen reheated vendor-type meal... he expected that, but not such a low-grade frozen flavor. He said it was like a banquet frozen meal. Eek. The fries and fry sauce were good, the mac was average...at least they jazzed it up with a few shreds of cheese on top. We wanted to love this place so bad! There's definitely some merits with the salad bar at least.

The sign outside should be changed to state LOCALLY OWNED and also BEER AVAILABLE. Server Xander was very good, esp considering he isn't yet old enough to serve beer legally.

It's like Perkins, if it wasn't a chain and had a (small) bar. What it sets out to do, it succeeds. Astonishingly OK.
