The place is spotlessly clean. The service is unbelievably friendly. our server, Monica, was non-stop funny and efficient. The menu offers breakfast and lunch traditional options. Prices are old school reasonable. I ordered 2 eggs, bacon and toast for $6.50. Bacon is served floppy, crispy or perfect. I took perfect and it was. Food came out quickly. My eggs were cooked perfectly as well. Overall, a perfect breakfast. As we checked out, the clerk told us a joke. I won't ruin it for you by telling you the punch line. Anita's has two private rooms for meetings or parties. There is a single unisex restroom. Parking is ample around the building.

The only reason for the four star was the seasoned french fries. I did not find them to be well seasoned at all. Plus they were very limited in the amount you received for an extra cost. The service was friendly and quick. I would definitely go back to try other things on the menu. This is a great place for breakfast and lunch options for family dining.

This restaurant is new to us, as it wasn't there when we lived in Pendleton many moons ago. We all love an old historic home, so win, win. I was so excited about my flight of mimosas, I didn't get a picture of my omelet, but it was devine. All 4 of my granddaughters wanted the berry waffles and every single one of them devoured their food. My daughter, mother and grandmother ordered different breakfast wraps and we all very pleased. You do have to go up to the register to order and then they bring your food to you. You're asked to bus your own tables into provided bus bins. Very small business feel with a lot of attention to detail and providing a homey yet upscale atmosphere? I can't quite put my finger on it, but it was greatly enjoyed by all.

Finally, after several years Sophie's Bagels was in my plans. I can't here on a weekday with a…read morefriend, at 1:30 (they close at 2) and they were very gracious about not rushing us in order to close. My lunch was my favorite classic bagel, pumpernickel bagel with lox and cream cheese, red onion and tomato and I was sold after my first bite. I brought RRR here after the Saturday Farmers market and he enjoyed his bagel sandwich as well. First of all, we learned from the owner, Krishna, their bagels are made in New York in the right way, boiled then lightly par baked so they can be frozen and shipped. Sophie's then finishes the bake on site so they taste fresh every day. I have never been to New York and gotten a bagel so I can't honestly compare, but I'm not sad! The bagels are chewy and delicious. Also, they use Boars Head deli meats, high quality and worth it. We have only gotten water with our lunches here so I have no idea what their beverages are like but I suspect my 11 year old granddaughter would love the bubble tea. This is definitely worth a breakfast/brunch/ lunch stop if you're anywhere in the area.

Pictures of big sandwiches with 'sides' listed as part of a sandwich purchase but then every item is an up charge. The portions were small. Place seemed clean and inviting. 4 people on staff. Just us 2 in the whole place. Greeted by a young girl that did her job with the great efficiency without any understanding of customer service. I even had to ask for the receipt . Handed me a QR code to access my 'Rewards'. What? Our bill was $52. Plus. 2 sandwiches and 2 drinks. Picture of 1/2 sandwich is attached- you be the judge. Ugh

A few weeks ago, I invited my best friend out to breakfast for her birthday. I was leaving for…read moreFlorida that evening, but her birthday fell on that specific day. Since I would miss the activities planned for later that week, we both carved out some time to have a small celebration with just the two of us. It was one of those moments that is good for the soul. Every good story needs a great setting. And the context of our story took place at Lincoln Square in Fortville. It was the perfect middle point between our two homes, so it seemed only natural. I had never been to this location. The birthday girl ordered the decadent Banana Bread French Toast. It is topped with fresh banana slices, pecans, caramel sauce and cinnamon whipped butter! I mean, Jesus, take the wheel! I went with a classic Western omelet. You can tell a lot about a place by how they cook the classics. And Lincoln Square did it right. Plus, my omelet came with hash browns and my choice of toast, pancakes, a biscuit or French toast. I felt like it was my final meal before walking the Green Mile! Everything was delicious. We went a little late for most breakfast crowds, so the diner wasn't very busy. Either way, we had great service and the staff were all very kind. I had the feeling that even if they had been busy, you would still be given excellent service with a smile. Like my coffee mug reminded me, every sip counts. I feel like that is a mantra Lincoln Square holds dear. Side note: I am new Yelper, and I am still trying to get a hang of this taking picture of everything deal. How do you guys do it? Do you ask permission first? I took some pictures of the restaurant and the outdoor signage before going inside. Yet, before I could even get to the front door, the manager came outside to meet me and asked if everything was alright. I explained I was working on a Yelp review, and he was very kind. But it got my heart racing. Can someone educate me on the proper Yelp photo etiquette, please?? TIA

It is a nice sized place with a kitchen counter for singels to dine at if they are busy. Seemed like a good amount of locals enjoying a late Monday breakfast.

The only drawback is that the creamers were prepacked. That is common but my one note for improvement if the owners are on social. The staff is aaa freindly, good recommendations. And engaged.

Stopped in for lunch. Downtown Fortville. It never looks like there is a lot of parking…read moredowntown, but I've always been able to find a spot fairly close to my destination. I love the small town feel!! The restaurant vibe reflects the town. Everyone is very welcoming. I didn't catch bartenders name, but she was very friendly to everyone at her bar. She told us her favorites on the menu. I appreciated her knowledge about the restaurant and the menu. The bar area seemed a little dark, but that actually enhanced the experience of an old bar. We only sat in the bar area, I believe there is additional seating in another room, but I didn't look. I opted for a grilled tenderloin and a cup of beer cheddar jalapeño cheese soup. The sandwich's are Ala carte. The sandwich was bigger than I expected, that would have been enough for lunch. The trick with grilled tenderloin is that many times it is over cooked, so it is dry. This was cooked to perfection; cooked but still moist. The sandwich, with the "garden" was awesome. Now to the soup. I think she said they use wee Mac as the beer. The jalapeño was puréed. There was crispy bacon crumbled on top; I did not care for the bacon. The soup was odd to me as I was eating it. Because of the texture, it reminded me of corn chowder. There was a little spice/flavor from the jalapeño. What was odd to me, was it didn't wow me like I thought it would, but I kept eating it. So in the end, I think I really liked it bc I ate all of it!!! The menu is not large, but has a good variety for its size. The desserts were impressive, I just didn't have room for it. I could easily become a regular there!!
