    Country fried steak

    Amazing food! Not the best coffee but everything else makes up for it. Friendly staff and not a long wait even though they're busy

    Breakfast crepe and spinach/bacon/cheddar scramble with coffee at the Hot Skillet in Paw Paw, MI

    Breakfast crepe was exceptional, crispy in all the right places. Fresh mushrooms! My diabetic dining partner did not have trouble finding a tasty meal. Coffee was good. Service was excellent. Our waitress was very sensitive to our needs, being right there when we needed her. Price was reasonable. We weren't sure about the ambiance when we walked in, but once seated if felt comfortable.

    Carmen chided her aunt to see the dish as a whole rather than as a sum of parts of a pig.

    My girl & I met some friends for a lunch at the Hot Skillet. We hadn't been in the building since it housed Takokat, an interesting Mexican restaurant that closed probably during the early days of the pandemic. The interior of Hot Skillet seemed brighter, and the restaurant certainly was busier than expected. (Takokat and its predecessor in the building, Cafe 237, never seemed to acquire the type of following each deserved.) Even so, our server was attentive and took good care of us. My girl & the others ordered breakfast, while I checked out the establishment's Reuben sandwich & fries. Our friends ordered meat & potato breakfasts, and expressed contentment. My girl asked that eternal question, "Does your Eggs Benedict come with real Canadian bacon?" and the answer from the server was, "Yes." Real Canadian bacon comes from the lean eye of the pork loin and my girl, after tasting the protein sitting under the poached eggs & Hollandaise sauce, was unconvinced. On the other hand, the poached eggs were perfectly soft and the Hollandaise sauce was unbroken (personally, my biggest gripe about the dish in restaurants). My Reuben sandwich was grilled on a flattop and had ample protein & sauerkraut. The fries were tasty & were coated with something that wasn't objectionable. My coffee was yummy & hot. The prices were typical of what is seen now in these post pandemic times for breakfast & lunch dishes. If in Paw Paw, we'd eat here again.

    Quiet little newer restaurant in the town of Paw Paw. We went on a Monday around 9:30 and it was empty. Sat right down and the waitress came up right away. She recommended the breakfast crepe when I said the crepes caught my eye. And it was delicious!! Almost like a thin omelet then sitting on top of a thin crepe all draped in hollandaise. I usually ask for the sauce on the side because it can be super heavy but their recipe was light and refreshing! We will be back again soon! They said they have been busy on the weekends.

    Very nice place. Good food, not your typical items on the menu - crepes, Dutch pancakes and such. Limited seating but worth the visit.

    This is such a quaint little spot!…read more We were working our way through the backroads, heading toward the lakeshore on a recent late morning when we came across this cute diner. You are invited to place your order at the counter and then find a seat while you wait for your meal to be brought out. My husband ordered an omelet. It was a special for the day. I went with the corned beef hash breakfast plate. The omelet my husband ordered was very plain. Sparse ingredients and he noticed a plate being placed in a microwave, seemingly to melt the cheese. This is not something we love to see. The omelet also did not include hash-browns, which was not specified. In our opinion the price point would have been better represented with the addition of some breakfast potatoes, alongside! :) My corned beef plate was very tasty!! It came with corned beef, two eggs, breakfast potatoes and delicious toast! We also enjoyed fresh jam - request this if it's not offered to you as they have regular, pre-packaged smuckers on the table, but fresh jam in the cooler! :) The staff were all super kind and helpful! This is a very cute spot - we need more spots like this around our local cute towns!

    Five 5 stars for sure !…read more Fabulous little diner in Paw Paw Michigan I-94 & mile marker 67 - We got off the highway to go To Geo rocks store. This diner has been In operation since 1924! Everything was home made with pride . So delicious! Chicken fried steak with garlic mashed potatoes & corn muffin - the best I have ever eaten ! Perfectly seasoned with the best white gravy. too! April ( very sweet owner) greeted us and took great care of us . I felt like we were visiting with cousins. I got some Home made multi berry pie to take home . They had at least 12 flavors and only $18 for a whole pie!!! Wow Save this gastro Delightful restaurant GEM ! decorated real cute , too .
