Chicken fried steak and eggs with home fries are delicious.
Crazy Otto’s used to the best at customer service and at there food. Not once have I bad experience or bad excuse from them as I did today . With a take-out order . I order eggs breakfast to have yolk running not over cooked all three eggs were overcooked with yolk cooked also. Many times I order my eggs that way from there they have always gotten it right not today . And excuse was given that they were still cooking in the container that why the yolk was cooked. I never heard of that and I have order my eggs to go they been right always . But today no apology or anything like my fault my eggs were that way .
Love this place. Never had a bad meal here. Always have to take home some food, plates are huge
Great food, larger menu, huge servings. Smaller servings on the Child / Senior menu.
Had a breakfast omelette with grilled Serrano peppers on the side..yep..el Fuego.
Good spot.
I'll be back.
Moderate noise as it was busy on a Saturday morning
Big portions, if you leave hungry it's your own fault. Decent price for what you get. The corned beef hash is homemade not from a can. So good.
Crazy Otto’s is a long established Lancaster haunt. I don’t prefer this location because this part of town is rather unsavory. However, the neighborhood is only matched by the unsavory offerings inside.
My first breakfast I ordered the waffles. In the 1990s having strawberries and whipped cream was the actual dish- now you have to add $5 more. That takes this dish well over $20z
The only breakfast item reasonably processed is the Two egg any style for just at $15.
Both my girls ordered from the kids menu, plus 3 drinks- $75 with gratuity included since we were a table of 4 adults and 4 kids .
I went again last week. This time I ordered a Denver omelette with added cheese.
The food is bland. There is no signature item- homemade jam, hash browns, pancakes- something so unique you can only get it there.
Crazy Otto’s is famous for big portions. That’s it.
The food lacks flavor or flair. I look over the menu thinking- I make better eggs and pancakes at home. Do they watch any professional cooks? Add vanilla, cinnamon to spice up pancakes. Throw in ricotta to scrambled eggs.
Develop a signature seasoning for the hash browns.
I love breakfast places. Every stand out place has a secret ingredient or flavor on the menu.
For $20 a plate - I expect the food to be so delicious you want to lick the plate.
The coffee is meant for the battled hardened - black, bold with a bitter finish. The grounds are not from any coffee producer that knows how to produce a balanced, smooth coffee.
The interior just needs a strong deep cleaning & refresh. There is an air of dingy, run down neglected decor. It’s an old building that shows her age against the haphazard way the space is utilized.
Yes have eaten lunch and even dinner during COVID.
If you want a sandwich- there are 2 very delicious spots I’d recommend in Lancaster.
Need a hamburger- there is another local spot I’d recommend- all worth every delicious dollar.
Price needs to be proportional to flavor . In this case there is not a single breakfast offering that is worth the price. I don’t need large portions- I need food that leaves a lingering, blissful memory that beckons me to return no matter the cost.
Update:
We had a party over 6. That means an automatic 18% gratuity is added. They split our bills three ways and ADDED $40 TO EACH OF OUR BILLS!! They didn’t give me an itemized bill. When called I was told to just dispute it with my bank 😡 They turned $40 tip to $120
Love it

Great food! Good people! Busy place but quick to be seated. Prices are ok and I’d come back for more! Saw someone’s old car and thought I’d add it. Super cute! ?

Do yourself a favor and STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE! Where to start. I ordered a “full” omelette with well done hash browns, a side of hash browns well done and an order of fried zucchini. When I heard the order was just over $40 it threw me off but did not think anything of it. I said ok the side order and zucchini is gonna be a huge portion. I get there to pick it up, and I head home without checking. I get home open the 1/3 boxes the zucchini order was a complete joke. I counted 11 pieces of zucchini’s like a literal joke. I’m already pissed off. Then I see the hash brown side. Completely raw!!! Another absolute joke. I get back in the car and I head back in. Tell the host the damn situation. And I tell here if this is a joke or what’s going on.! She said oh this is the serving size. I said no way I’m paying $15 for this stingy order of zucchini’s! I need a refund. She had to go ask the owner for a refund because they don’t provide refunds. Like what kind of customer service is this. The owner is joke him self for allowing this type of BS nonsense. Not good for business old man. Don’t go here stay away! I will not be going there again. Not only that but they threw the same hash brown back on the grill and didn’t provide a fresh new omelette with well done hash brown. Even thoe it was cold already from driving back and forth. I don’t live here in Lancaster but I’m thankful that where I live in mission hills we have a holiday burger. Huge order of fried zucchini’s is $6.99 and I mean it’s huge!. $15 for this crap is a joke.! Good luck. Won’t be back for sure! Oh and I totally forgot to take pictures!
