Hometown Kitchen — Restaurant in Somers

Do not go here if you have food allergies. I specifically told the waitress I need my meal gluten and dairy free. I ordered a burger on a bed of lettuce. She told me the lettuce would have cabbage and carrot bits and I said ok. Ten minutes later, my food arrives and my burger is on top of a full salad with egg, bacon and feta cheese everywhere!

I told them I couldn't eat that with the cheese on it so they took it back to the kitchen. Literally, less than 2 minutes later, they come back out with my salad and burger and tell me it's all set. Well, nobody can cook a medium well burger that fast so it appears they were trying to give me the burger that was just covered in feta cheese!! I even told them how important it was as this is a true allergy and I'd end up with hives in my mouth or worse. I told them I couldn't eat it if they just took the same burger out of the salad with feta cheese and she tried saying they just made it, then she said she thought they were just giving me someone else's burger from the grill! Yea right! Lie.

At that point, I just offered to take my money back and go elsewhere but they took it back to the kitchen again. 7 minutes later I had a new burger. It seemed fresh off the grill but I was still afraid. I was starving and ate it anyway and within 30 minutes my eyes swelled up with hives. Thanks!! I appreciated that! Did you rinse the burger and put it back on the grill for a minute?

Do your customers a favor next time and tell them you are too incompetent to accommodate food allergies.

I will never come back or recommend this place to anyone. Terribly...

Breakfast...plenty of seating...lighting is kind of dark but the dark wood decor contributes to that.resataurant eating area was clean...as for food...my hash browns were undercooked...kind of mushy...my veggie omelet was filled nicely...could have been better with fresh veggies but still good...multigrain toast was very good...my husbands hash browns were nice and crispy....his scrambled eggs cooked perfect...all in all a decent breakfast...just don't understand the difference in hash browns or should I call then home fries.........this is the first time we have stopped there since the pandemic started...will be back for...

One of my favorite things about traveling is finding yourself in a small town with a diner that has amazing food and even more amazing people. I decided to check this place out because I was staying in an Airbnb and was not disappointed. Dinner was so good I came back the next morning for breakfast! The baked scrod was recommended and did not disappoint. Neither did the peanut butter pie. And the blueberry pancakes the next morning? Delicious!

If you are ever in the area and want a nice, comforting meal with very friendly staff, make the stop here....
