    Waffle House is Waffle House. You know what you are gonna get. The menu is pretty streamlined and easy to follow. Coffee is smooth and the sweet tea is hella sweet. It's pretty nondescript inside Food is simple but filling. Service is friendly and helpful They are 24 hours

    Wow! Yummy! I grew up going to Waffle House whenever we would vacation down south, especially Florida. I loved the waffles and grits so much. I have not been to a Waffle House in decades and finally, I am back. I guess I never thought to road trip over here, even though we are in Toledo for activities all of the time, but my child wanted this to be a birthday meal and I was totally down for the experience. This is an adorable location that gives nostalgia vibes, it seems like it has not changed since I last visited a location, and I love that! The place was very busy, not too many spots, people seem to love it here. The service was good, friendly, and efficient. I also love the prices, they also did not seem to change since I visited last, bonus! That way, we could order everything! I actually did not know until someone told me you could get your hash browns so many ways, honestly, I always just got waffles and grits. But today I tried them with onions, ham, and cheese, amazing! The grits were as good as every, so salty and buttery. I loved the pecan waffles, since I would get them in Georgia and that is what they were known for. So good and satisfying. We also got some toast, simple and delicious, and my husband got a side of grilled chicken, really good! Get that, for real! Now that I know, I am coming back soon. I need to try their lunch dinner food. We also got a carry out waffle covered in chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and blueberry nougats, so good. I really enjoyed that too.

    Waffle House restaurants are a no-frills, no-gimmick establishment that serves traditional American breakfast and non-breakfast meals. I like going to Waffle House for their breakfast items (waffles, eggs, sausage/ bacon, etc.), but for my visit to this establishment, I opted for their burgers and chili option as I had not had those before. However, waffles were ordered by others in my party. All the food was made to order and served hot. We sat by the kitchen counter for quick service. My burger and chili were good, and they hit the spot. We ordered a couple of different types of waffles (chocolate chip and blueberry kinds). The flavor of these waffles was good, but the texture could have been better. They seemed a bit undercooked compared to how I have had (nice golden brown) at other Waffle Houses in the past. Overall though, we liked our food. We received good service. The staff members were courteous and friendly. The menu had a good variety, and the prices were reasonable. I would recommend going to a Waffle House if you enjoy having a good, simple, inexpensive breakfast meal or a burger and chili with a side of waffles as dessert.

    I'm a huge fan of Waffle House, especially for their breakfasts that I love so very much. I used to eat at them on the regular when I lived in Arizona, but we don't have them in Michigan, so I haven't been to one in ages. As part of my little getaway, breakfast here was written in stone. Especially since the whole lockdown has been lifted, I am more than ready to sit down and eat at a restaurant more than ever before. Pulling up, it was early enough on a Saturday morning that the place wasn't super busy. My date and I got a seat right away and they were doing social distancing by seating people at every other table and booth. They also had curtain dividers as well between the seats and the servers were wearing face masks to boot. Due to the corona virus, they did not have physical menus, we had to scan a QR code at our table for a menu. I already knew what I wanted, but reviewed the menu on my phone to see if any changes had been mde to their menu since I had last eaten at one. (no changes that I could see, which is fine by me.) Our waitress was young and nice, but not the most attentive. I will chalk it up to her being out of practice, but one of us had to constantly get up and ask for basic things like salt, extra water, more coffee and a few other items. It got annoying after a while. She wasn't bad, but never really bothered to circle back, like ever. Plus, there was just 3 tables seated with 4 of us eating in, so it's not like they were slamming busy. Whatevers. Anyway, the food came out and it was as good as I remember. My date got a really nice big breakfast with all the fixings, and I got my usual 2 eggs scrambled, hash browns with cheese and cinnamon raisin toast with the apple butter spread. We both were loving the food here and it really hit the spot. Everything was as good as I remember, and made the lack of service seem minimal. Overall, this location has it going on. Not all Waffle Houses are created equal. Some lack in certain departments and don't deliver the whole experience. Others do it right like this place and make the time worthwhile. Overall a positive experience and I would dine here again in a heartbeat.

    Just stopped to check this place out on my way home back to Michigan. I was very surprised at how small the menu was, but what I did order was tasty. Both staff were very nice and friendly. I guess if you want a quick cheap breakfast, check this place out.

    So good, yet so bad.

    Waffle House, oh Waffle House, how I love thee. Hahaha.. I'm crazy, I know. But whenever I'm in Ohio, I have to have breakfast at the Waffle House before heading back to Michigan. Did you know that FEMA actually has something called the "Waffle House Index"? It's used by the agency to determine the effect of a storm and the likely scale of assistance required for disaster recovery. No lie. Look it up. I just recently learned of this myself, and it blew my mind. FEMA says that if a Waffle House is closed, things in the area must be really, really bad - like a large scale disaster (or perhaps a pandemic?) Anyway, I digress. What can I say about the food, except that I love it. It's horrible for your body, but good for your soul (and your hangover). I've never had their waffles, though, because I'm all about the hash browns - and on this last trip, I discovered the hash brown bowl - everything I love piled into a bowl of decadent high cholesterol deliciousness. Yolo, baby, see you in the cath lab! And where else besides Walmart will you see such a microcosm of society? The people watching here is on point, and always interesting. I'm sure that these awesome servers could tell some stories, and I'd love to hear them.. So yeah.. I may be a foodie, but I gotta have my Waffle House :)

    So many hash brown choices!

    This was my first time at a Waffle House! I know, right? I saw a ton of them when we drove to Knoxville last summer but we never actually stopped at any, so I was excited to stop at one in Toledo when we were in the area this week. Their menu is pretty basic. My boyfriend got the double waffle with peanut butter chips, and I got a hamburger with hash browns. You can add whatever you want to the hash browns, a la carte, so I added mushrooms and onions, and they were definitely the star of the meal. My boyfriend also ordered some sort of sweet tea that they only have there, I tried a few sips and it was pretty good. Not a bad experience for my first time at Waffle House and I would definitely stop in again when I see one.

    My all time favorite place to eat, wish we had one in Michigan! Fast friendly service. My go to are the grits with cheese, a waffle, hash browns and eggs. Everyone is always friendly, there's never any drama when I go.

    Yummmmm

This truly a wonderful experience for all ages and varying tastes. A tremendous and welcome change we've come to endure from other dining experiences. Here the customer is THE primary focus from the moment you walk in til you walk out the door - BRAVO!! The food, had the Mayberry Mega where you pick your 6 omelette ingredients. Normally a crap shoot in most diners but here it was a home run. The ham and sausage were nice size chunks, juicy, and full of flavor. Spinach, onions, and tomatoes were fresh and perfect sizes and good quantities for the dish. That leaves the cheese my one "ding" would have preferred shredded cheese vs sliced cheese because of flavor and texture - but it didn't take away from a wonderfully prepared omelette made and severed with genuine care. Potatoes were frozen BUT they were prepared exceptionally well for dinner dare they were soft and cooked with a nice crisp. It was a superb surprise and a very welcome one. The coffee was fresh and hot and the standard "acidic" coffees you'd find in most diners anywhere, but overall inviting enough to have a few cups for a discerning coffee "snob" like me. Place was PACKED so all tables and booth were full, but they have a nice counter service with plenty of seating and space to move and eat and be very comfortable for your meal. What's fascinating is the incredible teamwork and collective desire to ensure your time, experience, and meal are spent enjoying your company and food not staring at your watch wondering about time. The entire restaurant was seated, served, and cleared with clean tables within the time I had to get and consume my own breakfast. So if you see a packed house on your arrival and don't desire that counter seat fear not - in this home environment your wait will be short and your day will lose no valuable time - well worth some minimal patience - you'll be glad you did. Your greeted as soon as you walk in by one or more of the extremely hardworking waitresses with a smile - your also sent off with a "Thank you. have a Good Day" by one more waitresses as you leave - both excellent touch of service class enhancing customer experience. I've never seen a more well-run diner or any restaurant from the waitresses to the cooks to the dishwashers the teamwork, attention to details, customer satisfaction, and to the incredible cleanliness of the restaurant despite the constant flow of customers - I've never seen a restaurant so clean and kept so clean the out the day. So what are you waiting for come to Mayberry where a warm greeting, clean home, exceptional food are calling YOUR name today...I'm returning perhaps I'll see you there....Bon Appetite!!

My issues are the ham was a processed ham roll, and the coffee was pretty much just hot water. If the restaurant owners were real ham lovers, they'd have a "real ham" in the kitchen and they'd slice off a slab of the stuff for us folks that really love it. A nice piece off of a half or whole ham, not that awful "Cumberland Gap ham steak" stuff. Not the same stuff. Oh, real, strong coffee would be nice too.

There were two people who came before us, and then a group of 14, and then my husband and me, followed by another bunch of people into a restaurant that was already packed. The waitresses did not even bat an eyelid. They were very polite and were busy doing their work. They were helping seat people as well as checking out people who had just eaten. We only waited about 15 - 20 mins. In the meantime, we chatted with the locals, who told us how often they came here just to eat the pies. When we got seated, the first thing we ordered and got started on were the AMAZING pies (chocolate PB for me and custard for my husband). Oh my God, they were out of the world yummy! We got to watch the ladies on the grill as they made the food. My husband ordered he Swiss steak and I had the double hamburger with all the fixings. The food is great but so are the people who work here --they are just so friendly, have worked here for years and truly care. You don't see this anymore. If I lived here, I would come here once a week to chitchat with them and eat PIE!! Make sure you come here. This place is a gem and has been here since 1948.

    Night Owl opened very recently, within the last few months, I think…read more For starters, it's in Toledo, serves filling food well after midnight, has enough space for dine-in, and is an independent restaurant with a local feel not part of a large chain. We desperately needed that after White Tower sadly closed down. (Or at best is open very intermittently. Yelp still lists White Tower as open but they've been closed the last couple times I drove by.) So I really love this place and really hope it stays open and plan to be a regular patron. I encourage all night owls in Toledo to do the same. The negative aspects of this review should be taken as constuctive criticism, to help them to improve over time. Night Owl has a really interesting atmosphere. I love how it is explicitly night owl themed, it makes me feel welcome. You can tell they put a lot of work into the lighting design and the choice of music. It gives it a kind of swanky afterhours club vibe . . . Except that completely clashes with the uncomfortable chairs and the bright light coming out of the kitchen! And also to an extent the view of Secor Road and Sylvania Avenue out the window. I'll give them a bye on the view because it's really cool how the neon lights reflect off the window, and if they partly covered the windows to mellow out the annoying suburban atmosphere they would also lose those reflections. But what I think they could really do to make the vibe more consistent would be some comfier seating, like sofas or at least more comfortable chairs, and dim the bright light coming out of the kitchen or block it off from the dining area. The seating might be difficult given the limited space available, but the light from the kitchen could be changed easily I think? Then again, I kind of like the vibe just how it is, a sort of hodgepodge between a swanky club and a carry-out focused diner. Maybe they were even aiming for that eclectic vibe on purpose. And there's something to be said for being able to see into the kitchen. As for the food, it's okay but not exceptional. So far I've tried the burger, the blueberry blintz waffles, and the owl bread. The burger was fine but I've had much better burgers. The waffles were fine but unexceptional. The owl bread was kind of a zany hodgepodge, similar to the place overall. Sausage, lettuce, and ranch dressing, what? Next time I'll probably get the chicken sandwich. At the prices they charge I would usually expect real cutlery rather than plastic cutlery. (Then again, Zingo's is similar in that regard -- similar prices and plastic silverware -- so not completely unreasonable. But Zingo's has excellent food rather than so-so.) Overall, I'm very happy to have the Night Owl around, enjoy its quirky aesthetic, and look forward to my next meal there!
