| - Mmmm I know everyone raves about Matt's and they aren't necessarily bad, but I don't think they are the best as many may claim. Let me start off by saying, their service isn't great. I've been to their original location, before and after the relocation, and now this new one, and hardly ever will you get a smile from anyone working there. And I've dined there when they've just opened for the day, I've dined a few hours in, I've been there around lunch, on both weekdays and weekends, and smiles have always been, and probably always will be a rarity. On the bright side, this location did care to ask if we wanted refills for our drinks cause the original location definitely did not.
The food is a little on the pricier side. Though unfortunately, there isn't much on their menu, and honestly, after not coming to Matt's after all these years, I was expecting to see a little more variety on their menu. Instead I saw the exact menu I had several years back but now with a little printed insert listing the specials of the day for the week. In my mind, their saving grace at the original location was the chalkboard, decorated with the special of the day. Quite unlike the regular menu, it was often something interesting, but this insert was less than interesting that I actually gave it a skip. Note that whenever a friend dragged me to the original location, I would without a doubt, order the special of the day. With a side of pancakes.
I guess their food isn't bad, but with all the hype, coupled with less than stellar service, and a menu that hasn't changed all these years, I am a little disappointed.
