Several reviews highlight exceptional staff members, especially servers like Jordyn and others who go above and beyond to accommodate guests, even during busy times. Jordyn, in particular, received praise for her patience, attentiveness, and genuine care, making customers feel comfortable and valued, especially when dining with family or managing special needs. The restaurant's staff is praised for handling busy periods with professionalism and kindness, often making guests feel like their tables are a priority, and managers also check in to ensure satisfaction.
The food at Perkins is consistently described as hearty, satisfying, and delicious. Breakfast favorites include the breakfast burger, which features a fried egg, hash browns, and bacon on a brioche bun, and is enjoyed for its size and flavor. The French toast, pancakes, and hash browns are also noted as tasty, with some mention of sausage that could be cooked a bit longer. Dinner options like cheeseburgers and fries are highly recommended, with fries cooked perfectly and served hot and crispy. The pies, especially the caramel apple pie, are a standout, with flaky crusts and a sweet, brown sugar flavor that makes it hard to resist.
Despite some staffing challenges and occasional inconsistent food quality (such as overcooked bacon), Perkins remains a favorite for many, especially travelers and those seeking comfort food. The restaurant's friendly staff, good food, and welcoming atmosphere make it a reliable choice for families, travelers, and anyone looking for a warm meal and great service.
