Caleb's Breakfast & Lunch — Restaurant in Kansas City

My husband and I recently went to this restaurant for the first time while we were traveling. We were very excited about it as we had read really good reviews on it. When we got there, the hostess happily greeted us and took us to our table, which was surrounded by cute decorations, and our waitress was very friendly, we were excited about being here. However, when we got our food, I had asked for an extra plate because we were sharing something and when they brought the long oval plate to me, I noticed it was severely, and I mean severely, scratched up, but then I noticed something was stuck to the plate. It appeared to be dried food, which apparently belonged to someone else and it didn’t get come off when they washed it , and so I was going to ask for another plate. But, when I looked down at my plate, the one with my food on it, I saw it had more stuck to the plate on both the right side and the left side of it and I didn’t want to keep that one either. I did scrape some of the dried food off, but very politely asked the hostess if she could bring me another plate and explained to her why. She took the plate and was gone for a long time, but returned with a very clean, round plate, which was different from the other plates my husband and I were served on. However, it was clean, and there was no food stuck on it, and so I gladly removed my food from my original plate and put it on this plate. It was our first time there, and it seemed like a very nice place, but that was not a positive1st experience for us. My husband did seem to enjoy the pumpkin French toast, and I would say our food was probably a three, but maybe what I went through was just a fluke. By the time we left, the place was really crowded and it looks like it’s a popular...

There I was, cold as hell looking to fill up with a hearty breakfast. I sit down with my friends and family and order an omelette with andouille sausage, hash browns, and a coffee. Three people wanted coffee and we were brought two mugs. I raise my hand to grab the attention of a waiter, and was met with a confused stare like he was surprised someone needed something. He slowly walked towards our table and finally took my request.

The food comes out. Omelette looks off, like someone tried to make scrambled eggs and decided to make an omelette last minute. As I start eating I’m thinking I must have ordered the wrong thing because I couldn’t find any sausage. About halfway through I find what looks like a sliced piece of sausage. Imagine a slice the size of a quarter coin cut in half. There were about four of these pieces in, which made me think the profit margins for this omelette must have been pretty high. What can I say about the hash browns other than that they were soggy and greasy.

I was left with a feeling of anger and sadness. Anger that I could have made a better breakfast at home. Sadness of realizing there wasn’t a good breakfast place within a reasonable distance from my home.

The inside looked...

I had an online order that emailed me to pick up at 10:44 am. W I walked in at 10:49. I greeted the waitress who was looking down at the register with a " Hello ". She stated, "yes?". I said, I have to go order for Linda Lockett. The waitress turned around and looked behind her to the bagged order on the shelf, and said, it must not ready be ready yet and she and the other waitress that was standing behind her left. I stepped to the side and waited. I noticed a couple of waitress come to the register then leave. No new bagged order came out. After 10 minutes a waiter came to the register ( without a new bagged order). I approved him to ask how long my order for Linda Lockett, would be. He turned to the shelf looked at the order that was sitting when I first came in and said, "oh here is your order". Disappointed, I said I told the other waitress I was there 10 minutes ago to get a pickup oder and she looked at it and said my oder was not ready, but it was. He said well I don't know why she said that, I was not here, but here you go. And then he left. $37.00 for cold food sitting from service that did not seem to be bothered to...
