First time here and the services was awesome and the food was amazing! I’ll definitely go back when I’m in the area. Very clean and friendly! Can’t say enough good about the place!

It was our first time here and with such great reviews and pictures we were looking forward to eating here.
We got here about 1:00, were told we could sit anywhere so my boyfriend and I grabbed a booth, sat there for a little while and then at 1:23 asked the hostess if we were supposed to order at the bar or if a waitress would come to our table. She told us that she’d be right over and within a couple minutes she did and brought menus and got our drink orders. She brought our drink orders after a couple of minutes and took our food orders and its around 1:40 at this point. Our food came out around 2:15, both wrong but we didn’t realize until after we had started eating. (Boyfriend asked for raw onions, they weren’t, I asked for eggs over medium, they were over hard). Now, I completely recognize at this point we could’ve told the waitress about it and gotten our food remade but at this point we’ve been at the restaurant for over an hour and a half and had just gotten our food so we were hungry and didn’t want to wait any longer so we sucked it up and ate it. We asked for our check while we were still eating and waited another 30+ min before getting it.
I worked in a restaurant for over 6 years so I know that it can get busy and people forget, when we walked in there were a handful of tables but maybe 10 max. It seemed there was only 2 people on the floor so I was trying to give them the benefit of the doubt but even when we finally got our check and went to check out the waitress we checked out with even acknowledged we had asked 30 min prior.
The food was decent and I’d love to try it again but this experience left a lot to be desired.

The food was honestly just gross. The omlette I got was decent but the hash browns were greasy and seem old. The pancake tasted like fish (telling me they didn’t clean their grill last night). Water tastes like they got it from the river out back. Just overall not a good experience, new owners have changed the place.

We really enjoy FTC, both the ambience and the food. The staff are helpful and friendly. We recommend your restaurant, but wonder when you’ll consider providing to-go items not in Styrofoam but in a more environmentally-conscious way.

The bacon is kinda thick and hard to tear but they have really good eggs and toast. And the chocolate milk is very good. 7.5/10 but it is also pricy

I had the special Cherry Stuffed Belgium Waffle. Excellent taste but not a true Belgium Waffle. plenty of food for the price. Service is friendly and quite a variety on the menu.

Service was good, atmosphere was nice, food was not cooked all the way and rushed during a time when there wasn’t a lot of people in. No excuse for cold and under cooked food. Didn’t say anything because I’m not the type to send food back and let a cook be upset and get revenge for having to cook something over.

Don’t mind paying more if the quality is there. Food came out quick and not in a good way. Potatoes were still hard and kind of cold. Only 7 tables in the place so it wasn’t a morning rush or anything. 🤷♂️
