Attended an evening luncheon with my dear friend Donna Lou Toler, who so loved the Million Dollar Pie and yet wished to watch her girlish figure. We always have had a delightful time with our company, service and meals here at Kalin's

OUR WAITRESS WAS THE BEST. I CAME IN EARILER TODAY BEFORE CLOSING AS IT SEEMED AS OUR WAITRESS WAS STRESSED DUE TO ENVIRONMENTAL STRESS FCTORS FROM A
UNRULY CUSTOMER. IN MY OPINION IN THIS DAY AND TIME IT IS SO RARE TO FIND AMAZING HELP ESPECIALLY SOMEONE AS YOUNG AS OUR WAITRESS , ZOIE ...SHE WAS AWESOME IN HER DELAGATED DUTIES AS A WAITRESS.. HER HOSIPITALY 👏 WAS ALSO AMAZING. IT WOULD BE A SHAME TO LOSE CUSTOMERS OR EMPLOYEE'S DUE TO OTHER PEOPLE'S ACTIONS. WHAT THE 🌎 AND UNIVERSAL NEEDS IN IT IS MORE PEOPLE SUCH AS ZOIE . OTHERWISE EVERYTHING ELSE WAS GREAT AND WAS A 5 STAR. IF THIS WOULD HAVE NOT TRASPIRED I WOULD NOT HAVE GAVE 1 STAR.

A great cafe'. Excellent prices, for the quality of the food. Friendly service and the kitchen was pretty quick preparing our food. I had the Italian Beef sandwich and it was very good.

The service could have been a lot better and I have no clue what happened to the food because it used to be good but what I had was absolutely absolutely bad biscuits seem to have been microwaved gravy I'm not for sure what was made out of no flavor but I'll leave it up to you to decide to go spend your money there or not maybe your experience will be better than mine but I think I'll keep my dollars in my pocket and take them elsewhere

Lots of great breakfast/lunch choices. The biscuits and gravy are a fav. Try the German potatoes. Great service too.
