Kiss the Cook Restaurant — Restaurant in Glendale

If you want an amazing meal this is the place to go!!!! Let's start by talking about the staff, each and everyone of them is as sweet as the kisses you get at the end of your meal, so friendly, make you feel welcomed, helpful, pay attention to you, willing to provide you with recommendations, look out for the regulars but they don't put the regulars above the new customers and on top of that they are still very professional. One day a lady had come in and was sitting by herself at a table for four, the lady had been there just long enough to order her drink, when a man walked in alone and was waiting to be seated, I watched the waitress (because I'm nosey) go to the lady and ask her if she would mind some company and pointed to the man, the lady so not at all!!! Now I assume since they both looked to be regulars they knew each other, but that doesn't always mean they would be willing to sit and eat with each other, but I watched the lady and man talk and laugh and have a great time together. This is truly a great and friendly place and if the waitress hadn't been so caring these two would of eaten by themselves and not had any one to talk to, not that that's a bad thing, but a happy meal with a friend is always better. Now let's get to the food, I highly recommend ordering a meal that comes with the baker basket, the little fresh warm muffins are so good (heck I would order something I wasn't feeling just to get the muffins), with just a little butter the best!!!! Of course you have your standards like eggs, meat, and bread but then you have some unique options too, I highly recommend the Cajun omlet 😋 my favorite. The pancakes are big and fluffy the potatoes are the best in town and all the ingredients are quality, not to mention the portions are huge so come hungry!!! Now let's wrap it up, the restaurant is decorated super cool, it's very clean and so affordable, this is truly a gem in Glendale. Thank you so much for the great food and even more so for the friendly and caring...

Second time in, I invited Two friends for breakfast on a Tuesday. Food was delicious but our waitress was not in the best disposition from the start. When she offered me coffee (since I was the last to arrive at my table) she offered regular or flavored, I asked if the flavored was the hazelnut (since that’s the one they had last time I was there) she said vanilla! I asked if by any chance they had the hazelnut and in a scolding tone she said “I said today is vanilla!” We let that go and continued with our breakfast. We finished our food, continued our chat while finishing our coffee, she just came to bring us the check and didn’t come back at all after to check on us for more coffee or anything else. After 20min she just came and told us “I hate to bother you but there’s people waiting for this specific table”. We looked around and the restaurant was half empty, there were plenty of tables available and there was only one couple waiting to be seated. Needless to say we felt very unwelcomed, we were not being loud, we weren’t even laughing at all. We felt she used that line to boot us out. I feel bad for bringing my friends and having that bad first experience. That was quite rude from the waitress. It’s a shame because my first experience was great, three friends invited me, it was a busy Sunday morning, we overstayed way longer at our table as many others did that day and our waitress at that time treated us kindly and with professionalism, never rushed us, never booted us out. I will definitely stop bringing people again, I don’t want to risk being served by that...
