Wow! Visiting from out of town, and had to rely on Google to pick a spot. Often, that's not even reliable. But Google got it right on this place! We walked in, greeted with praise music and Bible scripture at the entrance, definitely raised my expectation- this place better deliver! And it definitely did. We were greeted and served wth Wonderful hospitality by Brittney. The food was freshly made and perfectly cooked for utmost taste without being gimmicky as breakfast places often are. Love it here! Already told my friend about this place.

I had extremely high expectations of the Rise Cafe as the menu looked amazing and all the Google reviews are extremely positive, so my husband and I made a visit on Saturday morning. We got there around 10:30AM and were seated quickly but asked to move to a back booth b/c the sun was BLAZING in through the windows, increasing the temp by about 20 degrees. The lady who came to take our drink order threw down the menus, didn't greet us or tell us her name, and asked what we wanted to drink in a manner that made it seem like she was SUPER busy; in fact, the whole place seemed extremely chaotic, despite there being at least 3 other servers and a GM walking the floor and about 4 or 5 open tables at any given time (up until we left).

Now on to the food. The coffee was the worst I've EVER had, including that from gas stations and hotels - incredibly bitter even after adding 6 creamers and a BUNCH of sugars. At one point the GM came to check on us so we requested more creamers, but she never came back so we wound up asking another server to get them for us (which he thankfully did). I got the cinnamon roll waffle, which was actually pretty tasty (and fluffy), but the sausage patties (that were an extra $2, which wasn't mentioned or I would NOT have ordered them) were PAPER thin and overcooked. My husband got the southern omelet with grits and Texas toast and the omelet was also ok, but the grits were obviously the cheap kind and had been reheated, due to the texture.

The total was around $36 if you paid with cash but there was an added charge for CC payments, bringing that total to $38ish (which is NOT right - you don't make your customers cover the CC processing fee at a RESTUARANT). Luckily we had cash so we brought it up to the front and asked the girls if we could just leave it - the blank look they gave us, you would have thought we had just asked if we could pay with gold coins. Everyone there seemed like they were either too good or too busy to help us (except for the aforementioned guy who got us the creamer - I didn't get his name but I know he had tattoos on his arms). It may sound like I'm being harsh but both my husband and I have worked at every kind of restaurant imaginable - from cafes to fine dining and everything in between - and we have also patronized all sorts of restaurants all over the country - and the service and food we got here was some of the worst we've ever received. We rarely tip less than 15% but just didn't feel it was worth leaving more than 10% - and it could have been easily remedied by just a little more courtesy (or eye contact), and slightly better food! Sadly, we will not be returning.

The food was delicious. The livermush was great, crispy and peppered just like I remember my uncle’s. We were served by Rise’ new waitress Divine who was very friendly and helpful.

5 stars! Rise Cafe was fantastic, and our server Charles made the experience even better. He was attentive without being overbearing, consistently checked in to make sure we had everything we needed, and offered great recommendations and suggestions that we loved. Friendly, knowledgeable, and fast—Charles is a pro. We’ll definitely be back!
