Wow the food is amazing. Got the divorce omelette which was half chile verde and the other half Chile Colorado OH MY GOODNESS YUMMMMMM

First time visit this place and my last one, I’ve waited exactly an hour for my food and I had to cancel, I told the waitress to charge me for the drinks and she said that we were next but unfortunately it was too much of of wait; we’ll I paid for two lemonades and an orange juice; that if I were a manager I wouldn’t charge for; but I don’t mind much!Also while I was waiting for the food some other customer were complaining as well and besides that I notice that inspection letter was a B”Waitress was nice lady! And that’s the star for…I love to visit local restaurants in kern and I learn to tip well; but this is my worst experience in the County.

We were coming back from LA to San Francisco and decided to have breakfast at Donna Kaye’s Cafe. We felt like we were in a 60’s movie. The staff were very friendly and treated the clients by name as they knew them for decades. The food was well served and delicious!

Excellent servers and environment. I especially love how they know almost everyone who walks in and they greet them by name. The food only is okay...but I would definitely return solely because of how friendly they are.

The food was NUTS. It was so good. I can’t recommend it enough. And the mug they brought my girlfriend’s coffee in was adorable. It had a puppy and roses. So cute.

Great food and atmosphere

The waitress was wonderful. Unfortunately, the food was below par.We ordered:Chilaquiles - They were not authentic, and the sauce could be compared to ketchup almost. The tortillas were not evenly cooked or cooked with the sauce.Biscuits and Gravy - The gravy tasted like flour and the Biscuits were doughy and flavorless.Sausage and cheese omelet - The cheese was not melted, the sausage was not cooked into the omelet.Hash browns and country potatoes were burned and cooked unevenly.Almost $50 spent for bites of food .... I'm sorry but not a place I can go back to

Customer service is excellent. Food fell a tad short though. My dish, Hamburger Steak. was bland. My daughters eggs and bacon were ok. Waffles were very good. I would visit again to give them the benefit of the doubt.

One place I never thought I'd have menudo at, but, they killed it! So damn good. Better than my own recipe. I highly recommend you go and try out. Service is also great.

We went and ate there this morning and our waitress was so sweet and gave us amazing service! There food is really good too!
