The Original Karen's Kitchen — Restaurant in Palmdale

I’ve been here three times, they say three times a charm and honestly i only come here because my son likes their breakfast. I admit they give good portion size for your money. But all three times I wasn’t too impressed with the taste of the food. First time was chilaquiles and that was no way authentic tasty at all. Wasn’t thrilled with it. Second was breakfast omelette with hash browns, which the hash browns could have been cooked a little longer, only top part was browned the rest raw potatoes… and the last time I ate there had country fried steak and biscuits & gravy. If you like gravy then you’re in for a treat, because they drowned both the fried steak and biscuit so all you see is that gravy!

So dense the gravy I couldn’t enjoy the taste of the biscuits, soggy and mushy I was disappointed and but disgusted. And let’s not forget the poor fried steak which was tough to cut through because again I don’t think it was cooked well enough. And I couldn’t even say whether it was a good fried steak because of how it was drenched in gravy, made the whole thing just a big blah! Only thing I liked was the house potatoes.. I should have asked for the gravy on the side but wasn’t even given that option. Anyway my advice , easy...

I bought a sandwich for a week straight for 15.99 There's a young lady that charged me 20.99 for the same sandwich next time I go over there it will be for my money. Then I'll never go again. She thinks she's slick because I told her what I wanted without looking at the menu but I know how much it cost because I bought it many times but it was the first time she seen me I want to hurt her because she's only there to take advantage but it's best if I don't. It's better if I read my Bible and forgive her. God will give her what...

This place is a great spot to grab day time meals if you really want to get a big portion and good prices.

Service is very good since you enter, it’s a busy place and hey still keep good flow servicing fast but fresh.

All menu is good but I do recommend the machaca, chiles toreados, and biscuits. They have bloody Mary’s so that complements nicely a good brunch.

Plenty of parking and wheelchair access. Fantastic job to all ladies...
