Crispy chicken wrap with honey mustard on the side, and waffle fries! So good!
Bria M.

I'm not sure what took me so long to have real food at Friendly's but I have been missing out! I love Friendlys ice cream, but I have never thought to try any other items off the menu. The service here is really good. I went on a Saturday and surprisingly it wasn't busy at all! Our server was attentive and gave recommendations when I asked for it. Most of the food was under $10 and that was a plus for me! For my meal I decided to go with a combo which includes a menu item, and ice cream. I ordered crispy chicken wrap with honey mustard, waffle fries, and cookies and cream ice cream. I was pleasantly surprised with how fresh everything tasted. I will definitely be returning to try out other things on the menu!

Came here on an early monday morning and was seated right away. I previously came to this place…read moretwice where there was a 90 min wait time so I left. Im glad I got to experience the great food. I was a party of 3 and we ordered OJ, coffee, and a hot chocolate. All generic, in a packet but that was ok. We then ordered the big breakfast, mexi churro waffles, and the grilled cheese special. Everything was delicious although the tomato soup wasnt a favorite. I would defiantly come back l. Make sure you come EARLY to beat the rush. I came at 8am.

Some places just feel special, and Maria's Brunch is one of them.

Every dish is made with care, full of flavor, and served exactly the way a great brunch should be. Whether you are in the mood for something classic or want to try something new, you really cannot go wrong here. What truly stands out is the family behind the restaurant. Maria and her family run this place with so much heart. They greet you with smiles, remember their regulars, and create an atmosphere that is warm, welcoming, and genuine. It feels less like dining out and more like being welcomed into a neighborhood kitchen. Maria's Brunch is the kind of local business you want to support. Great food, wonderful people, and a comfortable place to enjoy a meal. We recommend it without hesitation and look forward to many more visits.

I have seen Parkside Eats everywhere lately! Since the food, staff, and ambiance all looked…read moreincredible on their socials, I was thrilled to finally check them out. A few logistical tips: while there is street parking, a public lot is conveniently located right across the street. The dining room is quite intimate with only about ten tables, and since they don't seem to take reservations, I recommend arriving early or being prepared for a wait. If you don't want to wait, they do offer takeout! Another suggestion is to browse their menu online before you arrive, the selection is extensive! We showed up without a game plan and needed several minutes just to decide because there were so many tempting choices! Luckily, our waiter was incredibly patient and helpful, answering every question we had. Once we decided, the real fun began. Every single item, and I'm not exaggerating, was phenomenal! We started with the fresh squeezed orange juice, which was sweet and perfectly portioned, along with a vanilla latte and a cappuccino. Both were classic, rich, and creamy. For the main course, we chose the "Chill + Qill It" Chilaquiles, which featured traditional corn tortillas topped with cotija cheese, avocado, pink sour cream, eggs, and your choice of protein. We also tried the Parkside Classic Sliders; the chicken was exceptionally crispy yet tender and juicy, served with eggs on a brioche bun. We opted to upgrade to the truffle fries, which were delicious! Although our sliders accidentally came with pickles, the staff was so kind and immediately offered to remake the dish or swap out the bun. Finally, we had the Grilled Chicken Egg Ranchero. It was like a breakfast version of nachos, loaded with beans, peppers, onions, an egg, those same crispy tortillas, and more of that signature pink cream! We couldn't leave without satisfying our sweet tooth, so we finished with the Cinnamon Roll French Toast. It tasted exactly like a fresh cinnamon roll, the glaze was incredible, and the bread was perfectly crisp on the outside while remaining fluffy inside. I honestly cannot wait to go back and work my way through the rest of the kitchen's creations. This restaurant is a absolute must-visit for their unique combinations and superb flavors!

Don't come if you are in a rush or starving... going to be a while. 9 tables in the whole place…read more Our food got to us before 2 cans of soda did. Took 30 mins to get our appetizer, another 20 minutes to order our meals and then another 30 mins to get our food (no I'm not exaggerating it was a near 2 hour experience). Food was good, but when it got to us it wasn't hot and could tell it sitting under a heat lamp for a while. 2 tables got there after us and left before us. Understaffed and/or untrained. I'm really not one to leave a bad review anywhere, but this was just crazy. I really hope we were there on an off day because the place is cool and food was decent, but we just had an awful experience.

This restaurant came highly recommended by a great friend, so when I was thinking of a place to…read moretake my amazing daughter for her birthday, this was my first choice and I'm happy to report it did not disappoint. Service was tied with the food for first place! Starting with the friendly and helpful hostess, every single employee offered a greeting and a smile. Our server was Elijah, he was wonderful! Warm, friendly and professional. He was attentive and perceptive. He didn't hover but anytime we needed he re-appeared. We were greeted by two out of the three managers, 10 out of 10. Now for the food! We ordered the rice balls, maple wings a Pepper pig pizza and for my cocktail I had the blue Hawaiian. Every thing was delicious hot and freshly made. The outside and inside are visually appealing. I would describe it as modern meets industrial with a nice dose or rustic, very nice.

I would never return…read more The service was terrible from start to finish. They brought out the appetizers and entrées at the same time, leaving our table completely overcrowded with plates. To make matters worse, a server took away one of the pizza trays while my dad was still actively eating from it--I'm not exaggerating. It was only 9:04 PM, and we were simply finishing our meal before leaving. On top of that, I ordered the Bucatini, and it was severely overcooked. My mom ordered another pasta that also wasn't good. Overall, a very disappointing dining experience with poor service and subpar food.
