Molly's Family Restaurant — Restaurant in Spokane

We’ve been ordering food for take out and dine in here but today is the last time we’re coming here ,we called to pick up our order and ask if the crab cake Benedict is real crab the manager on the line said it is, so we ordered it along with the other orders, I’m a seafood lover & have family in Alaska who do fishing and crabing,so we know what real crab is,when we got home and start eating this I knew from first bite this are imitation crab,called and told the manager that why misleading people and she keep saying those stuff come to the restaurant frozen and they deep fry them and said it says real crab, seriously?,& ask what I want her to do,while I was telling her that I don’t want anything in return or even changing my food I just want them to know that they misleading people & they can check it to whoever deliver those frozen crab patties to them to check it with them, but before I even finish talking she said “ oh my god “ then hang up on me. Very rude & she should not be working there if she can’t handle complaint from customers,called back and they ask me to call tomorrow to talk to the owner,so for the owner if u know it’s not real crab u should not have anyone from your worker telling people it’s real crab ! check your crab cake Benedict before u eat it there because they charge more by misleading people saying it’s real crab when it’s not ! U can check online too that imitation crab is same color to what they have on their crab patties .. real crab it can break into pieces but imitation crab line what they have can’t break into pieces easy ..check the picture on that big part of the one they have inside their patties that’s imitation crab clearly...

This is one of those "don't judge a book by its cover" spots! It's been 24 hours now and I can't stop thinking about how great the food (and service) was. Savoring my leftovers, yet dreading the upcoming final bite.. would it be insane to plan a whole separate vacation to Spokane just so I have a reason to eat at Molly's again?? The turkey avocado club; 3 thick slices of amazing bread, piled high with all the works- so big we got lunch, dinner and a second lunch out of it!!! And then the chicken fried steak lunch.. oh.. my..goodness. I don't know if I'll ever be able to order it anywhere else again- nothing will compare! The chicken steak was perfectly crispy and breaded, the sausage country gravy was flavorful and the freaking mashed potatoes!! They must plop the mashed spuds on a cube of butter on the flat top, but I'll be reminiscing those crunchy buttery edges for weeks to come. Our server, Kayla, was an absolute rock star! Full house, only server, yet she managed to hold down the fort effortlessly (or so it seemed!). The water stayed full, the coffee hot, and the service friendly- I've been in her shoes with a full house and couldn't ever imagine handling it with such ease and grace. Whatever she is being paid, she is worth double! And then there was the cake.. I'm not typically a carrot cake fan but my 5 year old has recently decided it's her new obsession, and Molly's carrot cake will be a tough act to follow. The dang thing was 5 layers tall, perfectly cooked with no gooey spots, and delicious cream cheese frosting. If on my deathbed I get to choose a final meal, it's going to be...

Before I explain what my experience was. I would like to say that I used to enjoy eating at Mollys and it was an amazing experience. What I had today was not that. Imagine if you will you go to the very very crack headed dollar store near Ruby and division. Go inside and purchase yourself a pair of flip-flops than have been argued over and fought over by junkies untold. Now bring said item to the cashier and checkout. Pay your dollar 25 because God forbid that it’s actually a dollar anymore. Bring said sandal down to Mollys and donate it to a homeless person. Have them walk around the block in it. Politely buy it off of them for $.50. Bring said flip-flop headed to the chef at Mollys ask them to microwave in a dirty microwave for approximately 10 minutes. After this the blackened remains should be looked at carefully and put quietly back in the microwave for approximately another minute and a half. Take said item put it on a plate with hashbrowns served with three over easy eggs with said egg shells included. Bring to the delighted appetites of a loving couple who likes to tip and enjoys food. Watch them and ingest said food while sitting trying to not laugh at the absurdity of this all. Leave generous tip because the service was great but the food was not. Go home and spend the entire night wrapped around the toilet bowl causing it to have the same amount of damage as a street taco vendors public restroom in Tijuana. Fun. Never again will they get my business or my wife’s business thanks for ruining a great American and Spokane...
