| - I've eaten here twice now, and neither time was particularly enjoyable. The food itself is fine; exactly what you'd expect from a Perkins. I tried one of their newer omelets, and it was surprisingly tasty. I had that problem where I was too full to eat more but wanted to keep eating... The service, however, leaves much to be desired.
The first time I went was on a Sunday around noon, so it was pretty busy. My boyfriend and I stood in front of the podium waiting for someone to come to put our names on the list. When someone finally came, he first took the name of someone who had come in after us, like we weren't even there. It took a while to be seated, but that's understandable since it was about time for Sunday brunch.
The second time was again on a Sunday around noon, but it wasn't near as busy. Our waitress took our orders promptly, but afterwards, the quality of service plummeted. My water glass was empty for at least 15 minutes before getting a refill, twice. The waitress had walked past our table many times, but didn't even look at us to see how we were doing. Our food took forever to come, and I understand there were five of us so that can take a while, but this was ridiculous. And the waitress didn't say a thing the whole time. When the food did come, it was warm, so at least the meal itself was good. I asked for a box, but it never came. I ended up asking for one at the counter myself to avoid waiting probably another half hour. Overall, our waitress stopped at our table maybe five times total, and never apologized for the long wait or even noticed that we were pretty upset with our service. In addition, several of the other employees were arguing loudly in earshot of customers, which I think is pretty unprofessional.
I can't say I'd recommend going here, and if you do, expect to wait.
