Every time I've eaten here has always been a huge pleasure. The food is hot, and the servers are exceptionally friendly. The last time I went, they were out of rice for my fish and shrimp entree, so they sent me home with an extra order of strawberry crispers, free of charge! One of the waitresses also said I was pretty and mentioned how lucky my fiancee was. Totally made my night.

Tilapia and shrimp dinner I got was very delicious. The service was very good. I like wine with my dinner which they don't serve which is why I gave it four stars rather than five Stars.

Very very good service. The food was amazing a always and was piping hot.Dorrean is the best !!

had a patty melt it was excellent

This place hasn't changed much since I ate at one in my hometown many years ago. But in a good way. Service is good, food is great, and the ambience is of family and good friends. The dessert in the glass case makes your mouth water. Don't change a thing!

Food was disappointing and slow to come out and they weren’t very busy. Server was great but kitchen needs help

We love this place! Great food, nice employees, clean. However, on this trip(a Sunday), we were second in line to be seated (hostess seats customers). We waited 15 minutes, and the couple in front of us was still waiting. She said they'd been there for 5 minutes, so a total of 20 minutes for them and still no seat. There were empty tables. Not sure why, but no one came to seat people. A few employees came by and said someone would be with us shortly. We finally left. That being said, it's a good place to eat. I'm not sure what happened on this day!

My wife and I went to a Perkins in Iowa last October. Used to have them locally in Springfield IL, but store went down hill and out of business. So this place looked fairly dated and run down and food was very marginal nothing like it used to be. And the syrup was like water. So gave them one more chance. Food was disgusting. Eggs were like old scraps scraped up from the grill. Syrup again was watery and tasted terrible like oil. And my wife’s skillet was salty with almost no gravy and the meat was dry. Once a fine dining experience for breakfast back in the day. Aloha Perkins.

The food is good. I highly recommend eating here for breakfast. Staff is friendly as well.

Missing SEVERAL items on my 50 dollar order! I've only ordered from 3 times. Everytime I'm reminded of why I don't order here more. Atleast the pancakes weren't burnt this time....
