Staks Pancake Kitchen - Auburn

The only food complaint was the biscuit was dry and crumbley. Otherwise a great experience. Would definitely return when in the area.

This restaurant is an over-priced nightmare. I came here with my boyfriend a couple months ago because we thought this place looked nice, and they had gluten-free options. When you walk into the restaurant, you expect to be sat by a hostess because it’s a bit on the fancier side - but instead you stand there like a moron until you are told that it is an “order at the counter” type of place. And of course, they expect gratuity before you have even been sat at your table and given actual service beyond putting your order into the iPad.
Service was poor. Our waiter seemed to be very inattentive and bothered by the fact that they had to do their job at a bare minimum level. The food took a while to come out despite the restaurant being relatively quiet. There was nothing wrong with it and it tasted fine. However, when we reviewed the amount of money that we paid for our food. Apparently they add some hidden fee with gluten free items that aren’t clearly stated/labeled in the menu (at least not when we were dining there). My boyfriend went to speak to the manager about it and she seemed absolutely appalled by the fact that anybody could possibly be dissatisfied by their experience at this place. She was rude and unreasonable. It was almost $50 for two people to have two simple breakfast meals, not anything extravagant at all.
Seriously avoid this place like the plague, especially if you have a gluten allergy. The Waffle House down the street has better service and a more welcoming environment than Staks. Your money would be better spent at any other business in Auburn. Doubt they will last here very long at all.

It was a crowded Sunday. Upon entry, we were given menus then asked to stand in a long line to place our orders. One of the reasons we go out is so that we can be waited on. Servers here expect a full tip with half the service. Never again.

Stacks definitely lived up to the hype when it comes to breakfast food. Everything I ordered was fresh, flavorful, and hit the spot—perfect start to the day. The only hiccup was that my friend’s meal came out about five minutes later than mine, which threw off the timing a bit. Still, the quality of the food and the overall vibe made up for it. Would definitely come back, just hoping for a smoother kitchen flow next time.

I've had the chicken and pancakes and I've had the biscuit and gravy. Both were fantastic! The service is fast and helpful. I love this place and I'd love to be able to keep going back!

As soon as you walk in, you see how bright the decor is and very clean. The service is great and the menu has right. I enjoyed my chicken quesadilla.

We visited Stak’s during the Nike Launch day at Auburn and had the best experience. The food was delicious and came out within a decent amount of time. My youngest ate more food than all of us combined and said it was the best breakfast he’s ever had!

Hash browns were “undercooked” and had a weird soybean oil or very stale flavor. The scrambled egg whites were good. I agree with others, the chicken sausage could have been cooked more. I wish plain grits were offered, they are cheap to make and a healthier option than cheese grits. I honestly believe a trained chef is not preparing these meals. I felt terrible for the table next to us, their three children did not like the pancakes, left their food, and left hungry!. Honestly, the owner needs to consult with a trained chef to revamp/elevate the recipes—you are almost there… First Watch in Columbus is our favorite breakfast chain, they would be an excellent benchmark.

This place is supposed to be about the pancakes and they where nothing to write home about. It tastes like cake batter, plus every drink is a no refill except water. Additionally, the service there was abysmal. Vary bad experiencem

I don't know where to start as soon as we arrived it seemed like they were short staffed and we had no waitress. The floors were dirty and the restaurant had a funny smell. The food was not good at all. I expected better because it looked nice online. I really wanted our money back because we paid $78 and you have to pre pay before you get your food but we just left.

Staks Kitchen is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is charming and cozy perfect for a relaxing breakfast. We were lucky to have Dominique as our server, and she was fantastic. Friendly, attentive, and incredibly helpful, she guided us through the menu and helped us choose some amazing dishes.

We ordered the honey vanilla and cinnamon lattes both were rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. For food, we tried the pork skillet and the shrimp omelette, and everything was absolutely delicious. Each bite was packed with flavor, and the portions were generous without being overwhelming.

Honestly, we wouldn’t change a thing. The service, food, and ambiance were all spot on. Staks Kitchen was completely worth the stop, and we’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in town!
