What a hole-in-the-wall GEM! Outside appearance is unassuming. It's in the same building as a gas station. Inside ambiance is very laid back. My mom & I seated ourselves. We were greeted quickly. Our server was friendly and accommodating. The coffee was hot & delicious...not too strong, not too weak. Mom had a strawberries and cream waffle. I couldn't get a picture because she dove right into it. She really enjoyed it. I got the southern smothered biscuit bowl. It had two eggs in it. They were a perfect over-medium. It had taken us an hour and a half to find a breakfast place that was open on Sunday and not fast food. This place was absolutely worth the wait! read more

The worst service I have ever had. Our family sat at two adjoining tables and ordered dinner. Somehow the waitress lost the ticket for one of the two tables. Human error, this happens. The cavalcade of errors afterwards are unforgivable. She brought the food to one table and said she'd be right back with the others. About five minutes later we inquired about it, and she "checked" and said they were backed up, it'd be soon. Another ten minutes we asked again because the other table was almost done eating. She checked and came back and asked us what our food order was, and that's when we found out she lost our ticket. Neither of the two times she looked for it before. Our eight year old was despondent because she wanted our waffle. The waitress said she'd hurry and put it in. She apologized for losing the ticket, and said she'd make sure we were right away in the griddle. Eight minutes later she comes back with the waffle. Five minutes after that we asked about the rest of our dinner. She said she'd check. Another five minutes goes by. The eight year old is done. We decide we'll just take our dinner in the car at this point, and ask to just have them to go. She then says that they haven't been made yet. We're shocked. She then explains that there were other people she had to cook for - never mind that we had ordered almost 40 minutes ago at this point and she had SAID she'd put ours in immediately. Another waitress then had the temerity to lecture us about how it was unfair for us to expect to be moved ahead of other people, and that she'd put us in next. We decided to cut our losses and leave. As we tried to pay our bill for the food that we did get, they complained about how we didn't want to pay for the dinners we never got and that they never made, and then overcharged us for the waffle. I guess to make up for something. Who knows. Inconceivable that they totally forget to make our food, lie to us multiple times about its status, and then get upset with US because our entire family was done eating before they even started our food. First time ever giving this low of a review, but they earned it. read more

Your basic diner which saved us when the adjoining Taco Bell was closed. This place is 24 hours. My cheeseburger was fine and satisfying. But that might have had something to do with the fact that I was hungry and sleepy. I didn't try the 1 pound burger...apparently if you eat it all, you get $1 off your bill. Our cheery waitress made the late night/early morning meal better. Free wifi sealed the deal. read more

This place has great breakfast food! Tuesday is 1/2 off omlettes. Truck stop, friendly folks. Easy in and out

After waiting 30 min for basic Buiscuts and gravy it came out cold . I asked if they would please microwave it because I knew they were busy but it was unedable. 15 min later it was brought out cold again. I had to leave after 45 min hungry . The cooks that work there are a disgrace . It's a dirty looking place . read more

First time here... Was a bit leary, but gave it a try! I will say that it was much better than Waffle House. Had an omelette, toast, grits w/cheese & oj. Everything was just as I asked. Portions were just right. And the service was not overly attentive. The waitresses kept moving & cleaning about the place! I will be returning whenever I am in the area!!! read more

So glad we stopped!!! Great Western omelet!!! Service was fun and friendly! Also got to watch Reba.

The review is mostly for the food - it's a diner no doubt about it, which means inexpensive simple fair. The egg sandwich was on some cheap white bread, but the egg itself was cooked fine. As far as the people go - super friendly without being annoyingly so. Our waitress was smiley, and even wrote "thank you for stopping by" on the back of the receipt. A chocolate milk and an egg w/cheese sandwich, plus tax, was $5. Deal. read more

If I could have, I would give Omelet Shoppe 10 stars. Great tasting food. Friendly staff who make you feel part of their family. Southern hospitality at its best. read more

I was staying at the nearby state park. This is a very easy place to get to for a meal. I stopped in for breakfast. The ambiance is lacking as it is basically a truckstop and the place is inside next to a Taco Bell stand. I waited awhile for one of three employees to acknowledge me. I ordered eggs, grits, hashbrowns and a biscuit with coffee. The coffee was pretty bad and served with fake cream. I asked if they had any real cream and was given 2% milk. Well, at least it is milk! They only have some kind of artifical whipped spread instead of butter too! Ugh. The hashbrowns were standard. Nothing to rave about. Frozen type fried. The biscuit was gross. Seemed old and had an off flavor. Didn't eat anymore after tasting it. The eggs were fine. The grits were standard (but missing real butter on top!!!). This meal was really subpar and ended up costing 8.61 plus tip. I have had far better for less with real cream and butter. read more

Walk thru Taco Bell - take a seat & the friendly waitresses take care of you. Typical breakfast fare. Omelettes are delicious- hash browns are not greasy, biscuits are delicate & light. Worth the 18 minute drive from RU - we will be back. read more

Stop to go to Taco Bell and just happen to be a little dinner a few steps away so instead of smelling Taco Bell farts for the next six hours in the car on the road I said we are eating there. Well turns out this place has excellent food and very good prices. The young waitress named Courtney was very nice a good waitress. I'd like to stop in every truck stop and find gems like this. Restrooms where really clean too. Thanks Russell read more

This is your typical gas station diner. Blah. My kids liked their waffle but I was not impressed. Service was good.

Ive been here twice in the past couple weeks. The first trip was awesome. We has an awesome little waitress her name was Brittney D. Her service was great! This last trip our waitress was horrible. Her name was Kate and she took forever to even take our order and even longer to get our food and it was not correct. She never checked on us to refill our drinks. She was not friendly at all. I hate we had such a bad experience the second time around because the first time was great. I don't know if we will return again if there is a possibility of having that waitress again. read more

Just what we needed after 2 days of camping. Simple and clean, menu with wide variety of diner style food. French Toast not on menu but can be requested. Serving staff were fast and efficient. Was confused about location but just step inside Taco Bell doors and you will see the diner area or enter from the back of the main building. read more
