    Egg, cheese, & sausage croissant. Build your own omelette with potatoes.
    Tia B.

    Great food service was a little lacking but overall would come back was down for FSU game day and found this place on yelp and thought we would try it out.

    Woodchuck Special
    Henry M.

    Stumbled upon Woodchucks a few years ago when I was a freshman at FSU. While some may be off put by the exterior, I suggest that you walk inside and enjoy the food. While there are some items on the menu that I would not order again, the reality is that you come here for a cheap and hearty meal. I typically order the Woodchuck Special or the Hungry Man. The service is always nice and they are quite accommodating and are quick to greet when guests walk in. The ambience is rustic and clean, with nice decor showing the history of FSU and Tallahassee.

    Ordered 1 biscuit vs the normal 2... all this for like 7 bucks!

    Found this little divey diner gem on Yelp that had great reviews. They were not wrong. Greeted with a smile and told I could sit anywhere I liked and was asked what I'd like to drink before even sitting down. Coffee was in front of me within seconds and a menu and the young waitress asked if I would like any suggestions. She was sweet and we chatted a little about me being up in Tallahassee for the weekend and funny enough, she is moving to Tampa Bay for school in August. Good choice! One of my go to items to "test" a breakfast place is biscuits and gravy. After confirming the gravy is homemade with another wait staff member, I ordered my meal but with just 1 buscuits vs 2. She was also really sweet and ensured my order was done in a way to be more cost effective for me. GREAT customer service and I immediately thought how because of her actions, my savings on the bill was going directly to their tip. I noticed their display case had cupcakes in there that looked delicious even from afar so I got up to check out the situation. I learned that the owners (brother and sister) mother makes them. They weren't cupcake sized, they were muffin sized and only $2.79 each. Sold... okay maybe 3 were sold!! They weren given to me in individual to-go containers and the one had lots of toppings so was brought over to me without the lid because she didn't want to be the one to push it down and ruin the toppings herself. I thought that was cute. They all looked great so I understand her thoughts. When given my bill I was asked if I would like a to-go coffee. Everyone was very attentive and so nice. It was a great customer service experience on top of the great food. I mean, I could see the butter pieces within the biscuit let alone taste them. I actually thought about going back the next morning but made myself try another breakfast location.

    Western omelette, home fries and biscuit.
    Bret I.

    I can't believe I haven't updated my review in 7 years! What I can tell you is that Woodchuck's Cafe is still a great for breakfast! If you are a fan of traditional diners, then this place is for you. The menu covers all of the bases when it comes to breakfast, and then some. I've uploaded a menu so you can see the current prices and menu options. Suffice to say that they very likely have whatever you are in the mood for for breakfast. I went with a western omelette, home fries and a biscuit. Shortly after ordering the server came back and said that they were out of ham, but that I could substitute any other breakfast meat. So I went with a sausage patty. The omelette was full of filling and perfectly cooked. That home fries were delicious: thinly sliced potatoes are cooked on a flat top grill. I am a huge fan of the crispy bits of home fries, and I loved these. The biscuit was good, but not spectacular. The coffee was good, and they will bring you milk/cream if you ask (the table has containers of coffee mate). Don't let the location, next to a gas station mini mart, put you off. If you do, you'll be missing a great breakfast spot.

    Breakfast Bowl
    Andrew B.

    I've been coming here for the past decade, it has always been one of the best hidden gem locations in town. The wait can be EXTREMELY bad during peak times, especially on FSU game day weekend but it is well worth the wait for some great comfort foods. I got the breakfast bowl this time but their omelets are amazing, the burgers and sandwiches are great too. If you haven't come by to try this spot, you're missing out!

    Danielle F.

    Every time I am in Tallahassee I visit this location multiple times and this weekend wasn't any different. When I thought of breakfast I knew exactly where I needed to ho. It was a busy weekend so they were out of some of my favorite things but the secondary options I chose were just as amazing. I even managed to bring my niece one day and the next day she brought 2 friends along because the food was so good.

    Love this cute little hamburger and fry joint close to TJMaxx in Tallahassee…read more They had the most delicious skinny fries lightly salted while waiting for our ride after an afternoon of shoppy shoppy. Staff was amazing .They came by our table several times to ask if needed anything after bringing our order and drinks. Loved the cool vibe with bar and decor. Would easily return when in the area.

    Hopdoddy Burger Bar is a good place to get a burger but be ready, it will cost an arm and a leg…read more My family went in here for dinner one evening while in Tallahassee. They run a promotion where if you sit at the bar, your meal is half-off. Unfortunately, we were 4 people with a 9-month-old so bar seating was not in the cards for us. We walked up to counter and placed our order. 3 burgers, a chicken sandwich, two small bowls of fries and two small side salads. After tip, it was $96. I've had less expensive sit-down dinners with top-notch service for that price. Our food was brought out to us not too long after we ordered. I will say the food was good. I ordered a double cheeseburger. It was comically large and nearly impossible to eat. The patties were thick and the beef was fresh and savory. I did the build-your-own. Mine had pickles, lettuce, tomato and cheese. The fries were ok. We got the parmesan truffle fries. They had the slight earthy taste of truffle and dusted with parmesan. The side salads were good. The kale was fresh and crunchy, it had a light vinaigrette on it that didn't weigh down the salad and complimented the bits of tomato and carrot. In the end, we enjoyed the meal but couldn't get past the price tag. If there is a next time, we will pop our 9-month-old in her car seat at the bar to get this food at a reasonable price.

    How can you tell if you are going to have a bad experience at a restaurant in the South?…read more There will be some signs I will share with you based on my recent visit to Big Randy's. Sign #1: Sweet tea brought to you is from a soda fountain and not fresh-brewed. Making fresh-brewed sweet tea does not cost much. The waitress admitted it to me. I cannot tell you how many times I have had an awful sweet tea from the tab and the the rest of the experience has gone downhill more times than stabilizing the sail. Sign #2: Buying ranch to go with your wings instead of at least being given an obligatory one. Wait...it gets worse...paying for a pre-packaged Ken's Ranch...not Ranch made in-house. Sign #3: BBQ sauce on your wings is Sweet Baby Ray's bought from the grocery store. That is what my wife received and I probably had Sweet Baby Ray's Gold on my overcooked wings. Sign #4: I haven't met many French fries I wouldn't eat but Big Randy's tested me. I couldn't eat them. They were like McDonald's fries except way too salty. My wife's fries had no salt. The only saving grace from a 1-star is at least they made my wings extra wet like I asked and the service was fine. That's how you earn a 2-star. Note: the fried pickles had more of a corn nugget batter and the floor was also very sticky.

    My wife and I were at Table 23 the evening of August 1, 2026. We were seated at a reserved table…read moreright by the service door which I really hate. I tried to get another table but was told other tables were already reserved. So we decided to stop complaining to ourselves and just go with it. That was the ONLY major negative experience at Table 23. Other smaller negatives were ice water from the machine that tasted like the plastic devices it came out of. We requested tap water and it was promptly served and solved that problem. Our waiter did a fabulous job and he was always moving fast to his tables. Sometimes though it took him a while to attend to our needs but that really wasn't his fault. That waiter was A+. I think the restaurant needs another waiter to spread the workload a bit. My wife ordered a Bees Knees drink and it was delicious, almost like a dessert. I drank my usual beer. We ordered Okra and Gorgonzola chips which were quite interesting. For our entrees, my wife ordered the flounder and I ordered redfish. Both dishes were beautiful in presentation but even mores in taste. The flounder came with a sauce that had lemon in it and it was 100% delicious, as was the flounder. My redfish came sitting in the middle of a generous serving of fabulous, delicious creamy grits. After my first bite of that fish and those grits, I knew I had hit a jackpot and thanked my good fortune in ordering it. And for a dessert we choose a shared flourless chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream. visually it was just beautiful and the richness of chocolate and flavor was absolutely out of this world. We are looking forward to our next visit to Table 23 and it will be tempting to order the same things but the menu has many wonderful choices. What a fantastic delimma.

I'd definitely recommend their Sunday brunch. Their dinner menu looks exciting as well and I'll definitely try it when I'm back in town!
