Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

The server was great. Food order was correct and timely even though the restaurant was crowded. The pancakes were light fluffy and tasty. I ordered eggs over easy, but would have liked them a bit less runny. The bacon was, well bacon. I was surprised that I did not like the butter??? The photo shows my eggs on the pancakes. They were not served that way, they were nicely presented on the side.

I'm editing my review and adding more experience. I've been coming almost weekly for a while. Without fail my partners order IS ALWAYS served wrong. She substitutes bacon for apple sausage, nothing complicated. This morning, our food was served before the kids. When the children's food arrived it was burnt. They wouldn't eat it. And upon remaking my partners food it was obviously the same dish, with the bacon hand picked out then microwaved. I've included a photo so you can see the water in the dish. She said it tasted freezer burnt. For almost $20 per plate and $10 for kids to eat we'll just grocery shop and stay home. My food was decent and so was my MIL The staff is great, but the cooks are horrible. And the food quality had tanked. We're seeking another comparable option. Will not return

We went to The Kitchen Table for breakfast this morning and were really disappointed. I ordered the Simple 3 with French toast, biscuit and gravy, two eggs over medium, and coffee. The eggs were fine. Everything else was not. The biscuit was hard, the gravy was heavily over-peppered, and the French toast tasted like it had barely been dipped in batter at all. My husband ordered oatmeal and bit into something hard, possibly a nut or some other solid piece. He stopped eating it because he was worried about cracking a tooth. He also got a biscuit with his oatmeal and it was honestly gross. My husband is on culinary school and said the biscuits never rose or got fluffy and were likely frozen after they were baked. He even showed me what a proper biscuit should look like, flaky and crispy on the outside, soft inside. These were none of that. He also ordered a cinnamon roll and hot chocolate and said both were good. Our bill was like $42 before tip, which felt wildly overpriced for the quality we received. The food was sloppy, poorly executed, and tasted like no one in the kitchen cared. To be fair, the service was great. Our server was perfectly lovely. But we didn’t leave the $13 tip their POS system suggested because the food quality just didn’t justify it. And here’s the part I should’ve trusted from the start. When we showwd up, the place was packed with mostly elderly people. That’s usually a dead giveaway that the food is bland, frozen, or stuck in 1987. The Kitchen Table location on Mill Plain is much better. We’ve eaten there many many times before and its usually a great experience. This location felt like a completely different restaurant. Unfortunately, we won’t be returning.
