    We were staying in Salinas and we wanted breakfast and my brother found this place on Yelp so we decided to give it a try. We were seated quickly and the service was excellent. There were several people going around filling up waters and coffee and asking if everything was okay apart from our server but she checked on us a few times as well. Our food came out at a reasonable time and the portions were large. We were enticed by the free kids meal with purchase of an adult entrée and drink Monday through Thursday. The pricing for the plates was decent.

    If you're looking for a good breakfast place in Salinas, the Waffle Shop is a safe bet. It's nothing fancy, but the food is usually solid. We ordered a veggie omelette and a pumpkin waffle (Because who doesn't love a pumpkin baked Treat?) The omelette was a solid size, and packed with veggies. It was easily split by two of us and included biscuits or toast and another side, which we selected as hash browns. The pumpkin waffle was a bit pricey for what it was but it was an up charge item since it was seasonal. It was good, but the pumpkin flavor didn't come Through as much as I'd hoped. Taking away 1 star mainly due to service. My husband was served black coffee without any cream and by the time they came back to our table it was Cold. I wanted a water, and they served it in a kid sized cup and they didn't check on us much so it was empty most of our visit.

    A pretty busy family owned business open for breakfast and lunch 9-3. Breakfast for 6 was served quickly with a little wait on getting seated. Social distancing and masks in force as well as sanitizing sin between customers. We enjoyed our pancake/ waffle combo meals. I thought the blueberry pie filling was over the top in sweetness and thought it would be cooked in the batter versus a placed on top. A note to self next time we visit. Coffee good and hot and fun to be around a 3 year old. Perfect for families.

    Cheeseburge, Philly chicken and French frys. Yum!

    The cheeseburger and Philly chicken was good. The service was also excellent. The diner was clean and there were plenty of seats.

    The assortment of children's art that you will find after entering the front door.

    The best sandwiches in the town and the salads still serve you very well the place is very clean…read moreeverything is perfect

    First timer here, ordered take out food was neatly wrapped reminded me a lot of the old togos's one…read moreof my all time favorites ! I chose this restaurant because i have a love of sandwiches , primarily in my area of Salinas... some other places that have been around for a very long time so read my review with that in mind please... As much as i enjoy giving 5 stars reviews to promote new and older businesses local! i must be very honest. I ordered a turkey sandwich with garlic pesto sauce, added extra meat and it came with cheese and lettuce tomatoes. i love sourdough a lot... my bread was very difficult to even bite into literally. I have to say the meat was minimal a thin slice of cheese and i could barely see the added avacado we added. i was hungry the size of sandwich as or looked big 8 inch. i as handed my sandwich and hubby says i hope you enjoy as it was $25 for the sandwich so i knew before i unwrapped it! I'm sorry, but i probably would have to give a 2 for the sauce taste of a hint of garlic pesto sauce is green usually and overall this sandwich was just A lot of "bread" not worth $25 i feel it could of been better ! for the extras we added and barely saw any of it period. In my opinion people making sandwiches either didn't weigh the amount of meats out in sandwiches and don't understand the extra and how much it costed. The presentation of sandwich was very professional. but not worth $25 at all. I hope management sees this review because i was hoping this would have been my new place for a good sandwich. the menu has so many selections. but unfortunately i can't see chancing spending $50 for two sandwich meals also side note: i didn't order full meal either no chips of drink. please give quality and quantity new time to avoid un happy customers. thanks anyways, i hope this place improves for future customers and maybe one day i'll try again?! just a lot of $$ for very little food and mostly bread and way to hard to eat... regards, Corina

The addition of extra steak on the side made it even more satisfying the meat was tender, plentiful, and really boosted the overall heartiness of the bowl. Super comforting and filling without weighing me down. The shrimp spring rolls were another highlight rolled tightly with fresh herbs, crisp veggies, and just the right amount of shrimp. They tasted refreshing and balanced, perfect with the dipping sauce. You could tell everything was made fresh. Service was fast, friendly, and efficient. Our food came out quickly even as the restaurant started to get busy. Ambiance was bright and welcoming, with nice modern lighting features at the entrance that gave the place a lively, yet relaxed feel. It's clearly a popular spot, since it filled up quickly after we arrived.
