“Me and my husband loves ihop but today September 1,2025 there is a change with the food and service . My crispy chicken sandwich no avocado and the lettuce is wilted. We asked the server about the avocado and she said you still it? We asked also for a refill of sweet tea and we waited long for our refills.“

“Took my kids to see my mom Crystal at work finally and they were super excited about seeing Mimi at Wild Eggs! Food and service was awesome thanks! We are looking forward to our next visit!!“

“My wife and I frequent Maplewood on the weekends for brunch. There are many options in downtown/OTR/northern Kentucky for breakfast on the weekends, but Maplewood is our favorite. The menu has a nice variety of American breakfast options, as well as healthier alternatives. We love the Guajillo Bowl and Mediterranean Bowl, but the Maplewood Hash is also delicious if you are in the mood for something a little heavier. The GM, Erik, often recognizes us and welcomes us back. Erik and his staff always do a great job with service, and mitigating the crowded weekend mornings. Bring back the Chicken Tiga!!! Note: It's first come, first serve seating and you are supposed to wait in line and order before being seated. However entitled guests sometimes circumvent the line and save tables for the rest of their party waiting at the back of the line, whom have yet to order. This often throws off the flow of available tables, because the people whom waited in line and just ordered, now do not have a table. It can get busy here on weekends, but if you go, don't be one of these people, please wait in line like everyone else. The line moves quickly and the staff turns over the tables quickly as well. The couple of times this has happened to us, the staff promptly sat us at the bar and gave us a discount on our breakfast.“

“First Watch without a doubt is never a disappointment when it comes to food, but at the Crestview hills, Ky, 41071 location, the server went above and beyond to make sure my meal was perfect. Had the shrimp & grits that were excellent. Also because I was feeling very hungry had the million dollar potatoes, 2 eggs over medium, a plate of bacon, and a lavender lemonade for a drink. Troy if you are reading this, you are an amazing server and definitely have the gift of being a people person. Thank you for taking care of me after my long shift at work.“

“Wow! I believe that many of us has eat Waffle House many in a road trip but this time I was blown away with the service. In the fish time of all the years that I have enjoy the food the waitress that was helping us asked us if we wanted blueberry in the waffle it was amazing ?“

“Tried a breakfast first time today. Very awesome!!! I can’t rate the atmosphere I had my food delivered. You have to try the potatoes, amazing!!!“

“Best Waffle House around.“

“I ordered the Grilled Chicken Melt Bowl for lunch today and it was ready right when I arrived — hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious. The service was just as impressive: the lady who handed me my meal was extremely kind and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. 5 stars all the way! I’ll definitely be back!“

“The food, atmosphere, service, and ambience at Mt Lookout were top notch! The HOE‘s team members, Julie, Mitch, Bri, and Murph, were extremely hospitable and friendly. We were seated and served in less than 30 minutes. I recommend the Fried green tomato BELT sandwich with sweet tots (with the maple aoli), or the Chorizo Burger. The grill chefs cooked them to perfection. Then pair these tasty sandwiches with a Murphy special, a pomegranate - mango martini or a cold beer! It’s a match made in heaven. We‘re definitely going back soon.“

“Best pancakes you will find! Very nice staff and management“

“Today, 11.02.2021, a friend and l were in search of good breakfast food. Before dropping her off, we stopped at the Waffle House on Delhi Pike. The employees at this establishment were some of the warmest and friendliest group of people l have met since COVID. Fast service, our waiter Dante explained how we were able to mix and match the breakfast we had chosen. With the turn of our head, our meals were before us. The grits were freshly made, the toast was to a perfection with butter melted, everything about the meals were on point. The staff keep the restaurant clean. On their idle time they were cleaning the grill and washing down the floor, no one was standing around on their phones. I give the Waffle House ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“Our service Chad does a great job taking care of us. We are loyal customers here. Me and who I dined with today both ordered million dollar bacon and mine came out burnt and the manager still served it to me. Thanks to Chad he fixed everything for me. There was a little commotion in the back but my meal was delicious due to Chad.He also compensated our meal. He always does a good job here.“

“I was just here yesterday with my two kids, you have the friendliest staff out there! Food was great, service was amazing! Thank you!“

“I'm on a time crunch & just passing through. They had me in & out.“

“Only issue I have with Waffle House is it's a little too expensive. The food is good but we got biscuits and gravy, steak n hash browns, & a waffle with cho chips. Oh of course 2 pops & a coffee and it was $57 to feed 3 ppl. I mean that's a bit ridiculous & 1 of the 3 ppl is only 7 yrs old. Can't really blame the restaurant tho, the cost of everything is gone up & I'm sure they're feeling the burn too & passing it down to customers.“

“Fast friendly service . Our waiter was friendly and funny !“
