Ordered the Ham and eggs and my food was cold. The country potatoes were cooked perfectly. I like the way they were crispy on the outside yet soft on the inside. They were perfectly seasoned. The service here is always welcoming. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I like the ambiance it's friendly hellos and lots of smiles from the staff which is always lovely.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server Sergio was nice, professional and attentive. Someone was constantly looking to help and make sure we were taken care of whether it's to fill up your coffee or just an act of kindness I really liked that. The prices are pretty fair too. I like the huge menu so many breakfast options. Although I didn't care too much for the biscuits and gravy, I'll be back to try something different. The food was all around pretty good. It was a nice breakfast with My Popps. He loves this place!

We came here on a weekday and the service was great as was the food. The waffles were soft and moist. However the bacon was pretty normal as were the eggs. The biscuit came out lukewarm, but they were freshly baked. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The staff is very friendly and it is a true diner ambiance with several booths.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The only thing is that the menu reflects cash price and anything paid by credit is an extra 3.75% surcharge.

Inside - cute ticket windows

Great spot to stop in for a hearty breakfast or brunch. The eggs were cooked perfectly, and the corned beef hash and French toast were delicious. The entire staff worked hard and seamlessly together to provide top-notch service. Prices were reasonable, portions were generous, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the atmosphere is very family-friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Fajita omelette with hash browns
Garrett R.

This seems to be a popular place with locals, and gets my endorsement as well. Discovered via Yelp on a road trip, I can say they likely offer what you are craving, on their menu. Staff are prompt with service and followed-up throughout our visit to make sure we were taken care of. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The quaintness of the building was very welcoming, and the walls were adorned with old railroad photos and memorabilia.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I had their fajita omelette, and my father had the Coal Miner's omelette. Both were fresh and full of flavor. We both opted for the biscuits and gravy, lin lieu of toast, and were very satisfied. Pass ing through Fresno, or if you're living in Fresno and never been, this is a great spot to stop and enjoy.

Front of business

This place was recommended and had to check it out. I was out with 16 people and we called almost 2 hours for seating. Walking in there were a lot of people inside. Kinda loud inside and a lot of people talking. I ordered Pancake Combo with bacon, sausage & strawberries. Pancakes....bacon...sausage were all good. I'd definitely recommend everyone to come here.

Sinny S.

Fast and friendly service. Love supporting this local restaurant. Food is consistent. Plenty of choices and price is reasonable. Plenty of spaces in this plaza. It is located in the NW corner of First and Ashlan. Sometimes, I find it easier to find a table for 2 than big parties b/c of the flow of the traffic (opinion only).

Biscuits and gravy
Maria R.

The service the great; waitress was attentive. The food was great, my omelette was well cooked and veggies were just right. The pork chop plate was great. The ambiance was okay but great. A bit dated but that expected hence the name. I only wish they had the coffee mugs bigger. Over good place to eat breakfast.

Mary Cruz R.

All the staff is so friendly and welcoming, best service! I didn't like the mushroom & jack cheese omelette, it felt very bland. The biscuits & gravy was 5/10. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was very busy, I didn't get to see the train.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

Chorizo con Huevos
Rowen H.

Couple of my boys forced me to go here and I am a very picky eater. I usually eat my own homemade Mexican food, but this place did the chorizo pretty dang well. The other food looked good, but I totally forgot to take a photo of everybody else's food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They even have a cute little train track going between two rooms.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

The BTT. Bacon, turkey and tomato on grilled sourdough.
Mary Lou S.

Been having breakfast here (and sometimes lunch) for years. Food is always consistent. I love that my favorites haven't changed. Service is great, everyone does a good job. Special shout out to Anthony, he always puts a smile on my face. Kids love to watch the train go around the perimeter of the main dining room...it's fun to see their excitement. New and not sure what to order? You can never go wrong with the Train Wreck or Henry's Omelette (chili verde). Everything is good though!

Outside on a rainy day
Jr V.

Great food and excellent service! I had a fantastic late breakfast around 1 PM ish and tried the Coal Miners Omelette with a pancake--absolutely delicious!

Anna G.

We tried 3 times to eat at The train depot but the wait was always long. But after the 3rd time we finally git in. The restaurant was themed after a train station even with a ticket booth inside.. we ordered a variety of the usual breakfast favorites. Corn beef hash, chorizo omelette, bacon and eggs. Everything tasted good except the hamburger steak . The inside of the patty was not cooked. And raw meat is definitely an appetite suppressant.... So without that plate, everything was delicious , even the salsa tasted home made!!

HUGE Thank You to our Server Jessica and the rest of the staff here! Everyone was so nice, Jessica…read moreespecially was super attentive, our coffees were always full, our food came out at a decent time and it was still nice and hot and she was so friendly throughout our time here, so Jessica if you ever see this, Thank you so much, we appreciate you! We happened to be in the area today with a failed trip to Lithia Ford for a car repair. We both were hungry and needed to choose between breakfast or Mexican food, we flipped a coin and the coin chose breakfast. I'm glad it did, cause right when we were heading towards another breakfast spot, we made the quick decision to just choose what was nearby. It's a restaurant name we've heard of, but haven't been, so we opted to give it a try. I'm so glad we did! Because the food was amazing and the service just as much! Parking lot was full but not too crazy, that luckily came after we were seated. Inside was nicely themed to Louisiana Bayou with gators and cute signs with quotes and a big tree in the seating area with sound effects of bugs from the swamp. As soon as we walked in we were welcomed with a nice greeting from one of the busy waitresses who let us know we would be seated in a moment. Our server Jessica came up with a smile and a warm welcome and had us follow her to our booth. We both started off with coffee and browsed the menu, this menu had some usual fair but definitely stayed in the theme of the restaurant with Louisiana cuisine, like andouille sausage as a breakfast meat choice. I went with their "Hucks Platter" which is 3 eggs anyway you want, choice of potatoes or hashbrowns and you can choose between a couple varieties of meats, steak, chicken fried steak, sausage, bacon and andouille. It also comes with a choice of side, being toast, homemade biscuit or their huckleberry bread? I played it safe and went with the white toast. I also went with the bacon cause I love me some bacon! It was hickory smoked and my goodness it was cooked to perfection! My whole meal was cooked perfectly! I truly appreciate the cooking staff for doing such an amazing job during a busy morning. Jess chose the Banana Foster French Toast and my goodness! It looked just as good if not better than the picture. It was loaded, thick and comes with a side of eggs and your choice of meat. She loved the French toast, she's never had Bananas Foster before but she said it was decadent, sweet and had a nice caramelized flavor. Would recommend and also get it again! We paid, "with tip" around $57, which isn't bad for most breakfast spots now a days. Especially when you're getting this kind of food quality and service. We never went without a fresh hot cup of coffee and a nice check in from Jess or one of the other servers to pick up a plate or ask us how we're doing. I do apologize for no pictures, when the food came out, it looked so good we just dug right in! We both would absolutely come back and eat here again if we're in the area or back in Fresno looking for a breakfast spot. If you're in and or from here, you should definitely make this your go-to breakfast spot!

We came on Mother's Day so it was extremely packed but we were seated pretty fast for the two of…read moreus. The food did take a while to get to us but I ordered an appetizer and that did come fast so it held us over and honestly, I wasn't holding it against them. It was so packed. The server was very nice. I ordered a Cajun omelette and we also had the fried okra. My husband had the Riverboat omelette. Both were very good. The biscuit that I had with the omelette was fresh and hot and a really good size. The okra came with two different dipping sauces. The restaurant has a nice vibe inside. Love this place and can't wait to come back again.

The food here was good. It came out in a timely manner, have to be careful because this place is…read moresuper busy daily so have to time it lol. I love the variety of drinks and breakfast items. Plenty to choose from everything taste good. Will come back 10/10.

Very late review, 2 months late…read more I went with my niece and a couple friends one Saturday morning. No reservation so we waited a good amount of time but it wasn't so long that it was unbearable. Very cute waiting area. I didn't expect it to look as... modern? as it did? I'm not sure what I expected it to look like but it was nice inside. Staff was suuuper friendly. Every single one we spoke to. Considering how busy they were (constant flow of traffic/customers)... I appreciate that they can still smile and make you feel welcomed. I ordered the OG French Toast, my niece got the Bacon, Egg, and Cheese sandwich on a Croissant. I can't remember what my friends ordered. Portions are very good. We could have easily split a plate (my niece and I) and be okay. Classic American breakfast. Everything was good/satisfying. We all enjoyed our meals. I also got their Brown Butter Iced Coffee-- saw one of the guys that worked there drinking one behind the counter and asked what it was, lol. I can't say it was the best coffee drink I've ever had but it was still pretty good. Not strong though. Though I've written a raving review, when it comes down to the food, it's not the best breakfast I've had around Fresno. It would not be a first choice for me personally but I also wouldn't mind coming back if my friends wanted to. Plus, there's so much more to try on their menu so it's not fair to judge overall food off one visit. For now, they are a solid 4.

A last horrah indeed…read more Despite one negative experience, I have to give James and his team props for providing me with one of the best breakfast experiences Fresno had to offer in terms of food. That hollandaise sauce is one to remember and I'd pay big money to buy it if it were bottled up. Devin has served me many times in the past and she's always such a fun person to talk to. One of the best servers here that had been here for a long period of time that knows how to run a crazy show while running around. The Clapton. Simple. Yet perfect. I wish I could've explored the menu more but as a Taurus I had to keep my favorite the favorite. Best of luck to the staff and James himself. I hope this isn't my last time having this Benedict. But it was a delicious last bite for sure.

Benediction absolutely delivered an incredible breakfast experience. The food was outstanding,…read moreespecially the banana pancake and the thick-cut wheat bread, which was unlike anything I've had anywhere else. I also tried the cinnamon roll, and it's a must-order. Truly delicious. The decor and atmosphere are fantastic. Funky, fun, and full of personality. It's a hip, trendy spot that still feels warm and inviting. Service was good, and the overall vibe really adds to the experience. They use a QR code menu, which I actually think is a cool idea, but the cell signal was weak, so I ended up using a paper printout. Not a big deal, but having a couple of backup menus available would make things smoother. My only small wish: I'd love to see fountain sodas on the menu. The classic glass bottle Coke was a nice touch, but nothing beats an ice-cold fountain drink with a great breakfast. Overall, Benediction is a fresh, stylish spot with amazing food and great energy. Highly recommend!
