Perkins American Food Co. — Restaurant in Minot

Couldn't be more disappointed with Perkins. Today I was kicked out of Perkins in minot. I have never been kicked out of anywhere in my life. Worst supervisor on a power trip I have ever experienced. I have grown up going to Perkins, was a family meeting spot for years. Yesterday I hosted 5 interviews in a section of the restaurant that was not being used and ordered coffee soup and breakfast, tipped well, and had pleasent conversation with all staff i encountered. Today well looking through the menu I was kicked out saying since I had 3 people coming in to meet me that I was not aloud to be there... absolutely absurd. I guess Perkins is no longer a meeting place or place to order food for that matter. My family will no longer eat at this Perkins or any Perkins for that.

I own 4 restaurants and pray my staff never treats anyone as disrespectful as I was treated today.. litterally as im looking at my menu to order and after telling the hostess there's no way I would come in and just conduct interviews and not order or support the business that I am at. This has bothered me all day long. Horrible way to treat any human being coming in to eat. Who cares if I host 3 interviews I'm a paying customer? Isn't Perkins a decent place to try to do this? I have done 24 reviews and I think this is the first not full star supper supportive comment I have made. Just so so disappointed in a generational family...

I recently visited for a bogo dinner special for pickup due to a coupon I got via email. I used their convenient online order system that allowed me to set up a pickup time during dinner time ordering in the morning. I arrived and the order was ready, the bag fastened up with a sticker all neat. And the cashier assured me, "Everything's all in there! Thank you!" I left, thinking, well that was great! When I got home ready to eat, and began to set out the dinners (grilled salmon steaks with terriake glaze), the meal on top had a a nickle-sized hole melted under the salmon, and the glaze had drained out all over the top of the container of the second meal. So after I cleaned up that mess, and transferred the meal to a plate without a hole, I opened the second salmon dinner. That meal came with a really large baked potato! Unfortunately, the butter and sour cream I ordered wasn't included! And so, while the salmon steaks were large and beautiful, one was dried out since there was a hole in the container, and I had to eat a big baked potato dry, with no butter or sour cream, YUCK! At least it was half price, but unenjoyable isn't even good at half price. And this is why we rarely eat at Perkins in Minot! In Bismarck, Perkins is awesome, but the Minot one has been screwing up my orders for 15 years! Always something wrong, and all you ever get is lame excuses and...

Perkins... no need for a catchy title when the quality speaks for itself. My first observation, upon initial impression, is: “How did this modest, casual restaurant become a lead contender with other, inflated, lavish food chains around the nation? First of all, a restaurant is only as valuable as its employees, and the Perkins of Minot has scaled the heights of fine cuisine and class. For example, amidst eating dinner with my mother tonight, our waitress checked in with us over a dozen times. Excessive? Not hardly, but GUESS WHAT?! I’m willing to empty my bank account on "excessive" tips if the service meets the grade of superiority. You can line up Culvers, Texas Roadhouse, or the latest Brazilian steakhouse from Rio De Janeiro, below our courteous neighborhood Perkins any day—because not only should our waitress deserve $30+/hour, but my steak skillet trumps any steak skillet I’ve had in years. Im sorry Denny's--You may have mastered the "Moons Over My Hammy," but your skillet needs some elbow grease. Folks; don’t take my word for it, but I implore you to belly up to the table and allow your tastebuds to touch the savory flavors on Perkins' menu. You, my friend, will not leave disappointed, or hungry.

Thanks Perkins!...
