I went here with mom after she came down to visit me in Paxton, Illinois, where I am a teacher!
Needless to say, I was looking for a local joint and had been suggested by one of the locals here in Paxton. The food was excellent! I got a Western Omelet (more on this later) and instead of toast I got cottage cheese. I also added a grilled chicken breast just for the hell of it. That was great too...love me some hot sauce. I even went up to the counter to get that hot sauce since our waitress...left something to be desired.
After I got said hot sauce (joking around with the woman in a Cubs shirt, telling her she was the "best" since she was nice enough to grab it for me...besides that shirt...she yelled GIVE IT BACK) that was great...
Anyway, our waitress gave us a few minutes to order. I couldn't decide between an omelet and just scrambled eggs with ham. I decided to ask her what the Western Omelet entailed. She said tomato, green pepper, onion, mushroom, and ham. Now being the idiot that I am, I took her at her word. I should have just special ordered since that is what I usually do. Since I was getting cottage cheese I thought, eh, what the hell right? I got my cheese for the day...but she did not tell me the omelet included cheddar cheese. I am glad it was in there, but what if I was allergic or something? I am to blame for this as well, but come on Ott!
I would have given four stars for sure...but the whole refill of water (I had to go to the counter and I am hoping the woman didn't spit in that refill) thing that I dealt with, going to the counter myself....THAT IS NOT SERVICE WITH A SMILE!
Would I go back? Yes, if I wanted diner style eating. I would not sit in this gals' section.
I was going to get a t shirt to show the world that I'd eaten at Ott's. But the service turned me office. I will keep that 12 dollars!
For my mom and I it was 20.45. Good and cheap!!!!
