Ask for the Chicken Froed Steak!

Jonathon’s has to be experienced, as a mere description just can’t do them justice. Great atmosphere with a bar-and-breakfast-diner motif. The service is second to none.

But the real attraction is the chicken fried steak. Big enough to fill the whole plate, they start with a prime cut of beef that’s tenderized so that you can cut it with a fork. The batter is thick and tasty (contains Saltine crackers, they say) and fried to perfection. Plan on either getting a to-go box or unbuttoning your britches and getting a nap. We got the breakfast CFS & eggs. Matched with coffee and a Bloody Mary is enough to make a puppy pull a freight train!

The chicken fried steak was huge and the crust stayed intact upon cutting, a sign the cook knows how to pre-tenderize the meat. The gravy however had way too much sage in it which over powered the taste unfortunately. And whoever thought serving it on top of the eggs and potatoes needs to rethink that one. If my wife hadn't had a plate under her bowl of biscuits and gravy she let me use, I'm not sure how I would have been able to cut it or eat the eggs and potatoes under it. I will definitely come back for the great chicken fried steak, but now know to request the gravy on the side, and the steak on a separate plate.

My husband and I were in the area, and as soon as I saw the pictures on Google, I knew we had to try it.
My husband got the burger with ham, egg, and bacon, which was good (he is picky and it was prepared as he requested). I had the peanut butter and jelly waffle with a side of bacon. It was so good! I loved it! The peanut butter was definitely the forefront flavor with the jelly hints.
Service was spot on. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted and seated. We got drinks in a reasonable time. The place was quite full. A little slow on the taking our food order and getting served, but again full room.
The atmosphere was comfortable. Clean. The tables were a tad close together, and the busyness of the place made the chatter a bit loud.

Cook to serve fresh food... My wife got the chicken biscuit. Nice size serving even enough to take home... I got the sopapilla waffle... A little overcooked more like a sopapilla waffle cookie. Great flavoring. Just wish it was a little less overcooked.. We will be back!!

Their chicken fried steak was okay, but not even on IHOP level. I have to be honest. It probably used to be that good. That wasn't my experience. No hashbrowns, really???
