Very friendly service! Eating breakfast today, wanted to know for the first time where the word ketchup comes from! Ketchup comes from the Hokkien Chinese word, kê-tsiap, the name of a sauce derived from fermented fish. It is believed that traders brought fish sauce from Vietnam to southeastern China. The British likely encountered ketchup in Southeast Asia, returned home, and tried to replicate the fermented dark sauce. read more

I was really hoping this would be one of those hidden gems of a diner, but unfortunately it wasn't. Let's just say it wasn't an enchanting come-again experience. I ordered the steak (medium), eggs and hashbrowns. It came out fast, but a little too fast. The steak was more rare to medium rare and bled into the eggs and potatoes. Yuck. I had to flag down the server but she took it back and returned a few minutes later with the steak redone. Now it was too done. The potatoes were okay, but neither the eggs or the steak were seasoned at all. Since this was a pricey breakfast ($14) that I basically couldn't eat and I did t want to waste the food, I took it home in a box to make stew out of. A disappointing visit, but since I was taught to say something nice or not say anything, I will say their coffee was good. Maybe they were just having an off day, but since it wasn't that busy and a Sunday, I probably won't return. There are too many other small diners who excel at their food and service. read more

Food is great, friendly efficient staff! Love this little gem in Goodyear Heights! Definitely need to get back more often.

Sausage gravy was awesome! Wait staff was very welcoming & service was perfect! Great little diner!!

Excellent food, friendly service, amazing value, just a really pleasant place to spend a bit of time for breakfast.

We drive from west Akron to Julian's any time we go out for breakfast. The drive is well worth it. All the food is made fresh in a small kitchen located next to the dining room. Everything is well seasoned and quickly served. Our family consists of all ages and there is something for everyone! The restaurant is cozy and immaculately clean. Highly recommend. read more

Stumbled across Julian's one Sunday when the breakfast place I intended to go to with an out-of-town guest was surprisingly closed. Boy am I glad we did! What a find. Cute and cozy atmosphere paired with friendly and helpful wait staff and delicious homemade menu items is more than we could have expected just stumbling upon a place. I had the biscuit and gravy with scrambled eggs which were the fluffiest eggs I've ever had at a restaurant. The homemade sausage gravy was perfectly light and flavorful and the biscuit..OH the biscuit! I am so sick of going to restaurants on Sundays for breakfast only to find the biscuits (they're my favorite thing) taste like they've probably been made the night before and have been reheated. Not this biscuit! Clearly fresh and fluffy and just perfect. My girlfriend got a croissant sandwich and let me tell you, that croissant was the most delicious croissant I've ever tried. So flaky and deliciously buttery I can't wait to come back! read more

Four stars for price. 3 for food. With breakfast running $7-8 it's nice to get something decent for $5. This is absolutely standard breakfast fare. It's tasty but it's not a culinary event. I don't think it's supposed to be though. read more

Julian's - Tasty. Reg breakfast was just $5.50. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Akron, Ohio

Nice little place. Lots of times at little diners, the food is super greasy. Not this place. Tasty breakfast, but I will have to go back for lunch. Specials on the board all sounded delicious. Seemed like a lot of regulars were there. AMAZINGLY clean! I was full but not stuffed. Really perfect breakfast. I will pick Julian's over Fred's. read more

The restaurant was very friendly and fast. We enjoyed our eggs, sausage, and home fries. Coffee tasted fresh and we also had a hot chocolate that was very delicious. Would definitely come back again. We called ahead and they said there was no wait so we were quickly taken to our table and ordered our scrambled eggs sausage and home fries. read more

What a find! We were driving from MA to Cincinnati and needed brunch - this was the closest place to the highway. The omelet and hash browns were very tasty and my Reuben sandwich delicious. Definitely a neighborhood place, but very friendly and pleasant. read more

My favorite place Never had bad service waitresses make you feel at home the owner is a great guy

We we're at a Taekwondo tournament near by and wanted something family friendly after. That's when we found this little gem. The service was excellent and the food was really good. My daughter had an adorable Mickey pancake that she devoured my wife's eggs and home fries where spot on and my omelette was large and very fluffy. The server kept our coffee full and I would highly recommend this place if you're in the neighborhood. read more

I very rarely give a 5 start rating but this place is the exception. I was very impressed with the food, service and overall experience. The decor could use updating but I was not there for the decor. I am VERY fussy with my eggs. 99% of the time I send them back to be cooked again. I like my eggs soft but not runny. I ordered Biscuits and sausage gravy with scrambled eggs and bacon. The eggs were PERFECT -- soft but not runny. The bacon crisp but not hard and the sausage gravy was like grandma made. David had the pancakes and eggs. He said that the pancakes were the best he's had in forever and again the eggs were perfect. This is our new "go to" breakfast restaurant. read more

The service was amazing as soon as we walked in. It definitely has a welcoming feel to it, like a mom and pop restaurant which I love. The place is clean and neat. The breakfast was so delicious! I was in the mood for sausage gravy and biscuits and this place definitely delivered the flavor! Not only was it full of real flavor with every bite, it was very affordable!!! I am so pleased with this restaurant and will recommend it to people in the area!!! Thanks guys for this mouth watering experience!!! read more

Julian's is still my favorite breakfast spot! I went in on Saturday morning and tried the spinach, mushroom, and cheese omlette special and it was amazing! The staff are all so sweet and friendly and I love how they all have pink Julian's t-shirts; so cute! I always see a mix of ages and races in Julian's and it's so nice that we can all be there together enjoying our meals in peace. read more

It's a small restaurant in downtown Akron. You also get the small town feel. It's next to a beauty salon. The waitress Janice was really nice and welcoming. The food was good too and the prices were excellent. For three of us it was $28! The sausage is homemade too. It's a must try. read more

Tried Julian's for the first time today. Was fantastic and at great prices. Homemade sausage and biscuits and eggs done perfectly. Extremely reasonable prices (it's like 80s or 90s prices lol). The service was quick and nice, and the owner came out and said hi. Felt like a good old-fashioned homey joint. Local places are the best and this one is no exception! Give it a try. You won't regret it!! read more

Ate there for the first time and loved it! Great breakfast and friendly service. Had waffles, home fries, bacon and a breakfast sandwich. Highly recommend if you are in the area. read more

Looking to support a local neighborhood eatery? One with good food and great service. Julian's is your place. Whenever we have a reasonable choice between eating local vs a chain, I always try to go with the local establishment. We were meeting a couple family members for breakfast and they suggested we meet at Julian's. The place is located right in the middle of a residential neighborhood. The menu is typical of a greasy spoon breakfast spot. I ordered the special - eggs, sausage, hash browns, and toast. I also ordered a hot chocolate to drink. The price was very reasonable. The portions were generous and the hot chocolate was triple stacked with whipped cream. I wish I had taken a photo but it was about four inches tall with a drizzle of chocolate sauce. It was unexpected but very appreciated. On my next visit I will be sure to post a few pics. read more

Amazing!!! The best clam chowder I've ever eaten! The turkey club was equally delicious!! There's no lunch meat on this sandwich... It's real sliced turkey all the way!! Don't let the outside of the building fool you... Step inside and you will find a diamond in the rough!! Very clean, excellent service and amazing food!! read more

Actually, four and one-half stars! My husband and I have been here several times for breakfast, even though we live in West Akron. The food is good, inexpensive, and there's plenty of it. The wait people are very nice, and the restaurant is neat and clean. I was especially surprised at how clean the ladies' room is--I've seen much dirtier ones in fancier restaurants. The reason for taking away half a star is that the decor could use a little sprucing up, but all the rest makes up for that. --Charlotte B. read more

I'm new in the area and was looking for a early break fast joint. Julians was a great stop. If you are looking for home style breakfast mom and pop shop definitely stop by here. The staff and services here was great. Me and girlfriend ordered waffles and biscuit sausage gravy. Waffles was perfect, crispy on the outside fluffy on the inside. The biscuit was fluffy and had a hence of sweetness while the sausage gravy pulled everything together. Definitely will stop by again. read more

M. This was off the beaten path the meal and service was low-key. The current trend of restaurants are geared towards a unique dining experience. The days of home style marginal quality cooking at a premium price may not interest the average customer. D. Taste 7, portion size 7, execution and technique 7, price 9, service 6. Would go back. Over all good. (1 ug , 10 this is the place) read more

This is probably one of the best meals I've had in the Akron area. A true local gem, you can really tell the time and effort that is put into the food. The highlight was definitely the tomato sandwich. If it's on the menu you need to order it. The sandwich is so simple but executed perfectly. The owner apparently grows the tomatoes himself. They were some of the sweetest, juiciest tomatoes I've ever had. And I don't really even like tomatoes. They breakfast items we also ordered were amazing as well. From the well seasoned, crispy, yet melt in your mouth homefries, to the one of the best waffles I've had. I definitely will be coming back here again and again. read more

Best breakfast in town! Great service, and reasonably priced!

I wasnt nearly as impress as others but that may be do to the time we arrived, the service was ok-ish but the waitress seemed a bit frazzled leaving us to have to wait a considerable amount time for our beverages and food...i was never offered anything beyond the breakfast menu. ..although they have others offerings . I know this because halfway into my meal i saw another customer offered a full menu. . the food tasted ok pancakes were buttery. .the bacon was crisp. ..my hubby ordered french toast and the slicers were pretty small ...and apparently someone had taken half of his pee for another customer so he had to wait to receive the other 2 pieces. All in all i hope this visit was an anomaly but im in no hurry to return. read more

Stopped here because of the good reviews. Husband said "it's the best breakfast I've had in a while." He loved the bacon and potatoes. I enjoyed my omelet and biscuit. Facility is very clean.

Great! In town for a wedding and this was close to our hotel. Perfect diner style breakfast. Would return frequently if I lived nearby. Eggs over-easy and home fries requested extra-crispy were exactly right. read more

My mother and I came in on a Saturday afternoon suggested by my cousin. This is a divey little greasy spoon spot. There was a very mixed crowd of both older and younger people from all ethnicities. They stayed busy the entire time that we were there with not alot of down time. Our waitress was really sweet and attentive. After my disappointing Reuben experience in Toledo I had yet to fulfill my Reuben Jonesing fix. Lets see if Julians can fulfill my fix. My Mom was opting for breakfast food but we ended up ordering the same thing I ordered it with with thousand island on the side. I also ordered us Mozz Sticks to share. Our Reubens came out warm with a pickle and chips. The corned beef was lean and juicy and the bread was buttery and toasty....really good...Reuben fix FULFILLED!! Money! The mozzarella sticks were crispy and not battered. My only gripe was paying 2.75 for a 4 oz cup of tomato juice...I couldve "bought a V8" A whole container lol. Overall this place serves really good food at reasonable prices. So I will definitely be back. read more

If i could give less then a star i would. I used to love this place Awsome food great service but lately there service has gone down hill. I ordered a side of sausage gravy and it was not even 1/4 of the way full in the container and cost almost 4 dollars when i called, the manager was so rude. I was a long term customer and they did nothing to try and make the situation better i did not want a refund just What i paid for will not be going there again. read more
