Absolutely love this place. Wish it was open later so I could come more often! Large portions and comfort food. My son had the ribeye which comes with pie. I was sold on the chili and classic Monte Cristo. Been coming here for decades and highly recommend slowing down and enjoying a good meal. Must come for breakfast and the giant cinnamon rolls.

This was my husband and I’s third time visiting this place and first time for our friends who we brought along to breakfast. Overall, it’s a great breakfast spot with lots to choose from and really good food, it’s just hit or miss with some of the menu items in terms of portion and quality.
Wait time is always going to be a bit unless you get there early (however, they have their wonderful bakery case at the front so you can stare at their gigantic cinnamon rolls while you wait haha). The staff have been pretty friendly and pleasant to interact with. Their coffee is alright, just your average diner coffee that’s not exactly the greatest but helps wake you up just enough. I will say I was a little more on the cautious side with this last visit just because the one before their creamy was expired; thankfully, I discovered this as I was pouring them into my coffee and didn’t ingest it.
The food was good, The Squatch was something I wanted to try this time around and I appreciated the portion size and flavor. My husband and his brother ordered the Wagon Wheel which they also really enjoyed. Our friend got the Country Mish Mash which looked rather lacking in portion size (he seemed a little disappointed when comparing the amount to the price), but otherwise he said it was good.
This place is great to return to if you stick with the items you’re already familiar with and know will be good. I’m certain we’ll return again in the future!

Bottom line up front: Solid 4 out of 5!
Would recommend would return.
Today was my first day eating breakfast here, with a friend and my youngest.
The country fried steak breakfast was as good as I was expecting. Better than most places in the area, but I would not say it exceed my expectations.

I am writing this review because of an issue I encountered during my recent visit to Homestead Restaurant. It first started with our table only having 1 set of silverware, I politely asked for more silverware and the waitress brings one more set. There was 3 of us so i had to ask again. We ordered a cinnamon roll to share and only 2 white plates were brought to us. I once again asked for another plate and it ended up being a black plate. The ambiance was just very weird. My husband, husband’s friend and I decided to dine there, and I ordered a chicken burger with onion rings. The initial experience was ok and I enjoyed the onion rings with ranch dressing.
However, after finishing the onion rings, I cut into my sandwich and discovered a moth underneath the first piece. My husband noticed my frustration and waved over the manager. She came to our table and was very apologetic, mentioning that in her six years at the restaurant, she had never seen anything like this. While I appreciate her response and the fact that she waived our meals, the incident left me feeling disappointed and hungry.
This experience raised serious concerns about food safety and hygiene. I will no longer go back to this place.

Absolutely delicious home style place, with a fun barn/horse stall theme. Bringing chili and beef stew home for dinner, after we grubbed on biscuits and gravy with pancakes, and eggs benedict with hash browns. Very sad that this place is not in Portland! We will definitely be back.

I’ve had lunch here several times and it’s always been great. Recently I saw a food blogger say how wonderful the breakfast is.
I went ,very excited to try the breakfast it seemed a little pricey but from the description – it would be worth it. I ordered the chicken fried steak & eggs over fry bread I think it was called the Squash? It look so amazing but…. Zero Flavor Zero .

I ordered the belgium waffles & bacon. We were seated immediately but it took at least 1/2 hr to get our food once we ordered.
This restaurant is stuck in the 50’s in more ways than one..their little displays on the walls of each table play snippets of The Little Rascals..[racist scenes]..John Wayne..[racist deceased actor]. This was offputting. Wait person was far from friendly & warm..but the real downside was as follows:
1. Still using melmine (plastic) dinnerwear.
2. Coffee served in plastic carafes . I looked to see if there was glass lining these carafes, but I just saw dark, unreflective, so I believe they were NOT glass lined.
So..if these issues were corrected (healthwise–come into the current Century) I would consider returning, but not as I found it. So, I would not return. Wait staff could use a “learn to welcome ALL guests PROPERLY” refresher.

If you’re okay with a premium cost, this is the place to go for great food and serving size, a carafe of coffee for the table, frequent wait staff check-ins, and quick service. They even provide a military discount.

The food is good, the portions are huge, and the staff is always wonderful. The owner is often present and acts just like any other employee. Love this place!

Had a quick breakfast here while getting our car serviced. I knew walking in that it would probably be difficult to find gluten-free options other than omelets, hashbrowns, or steak & eggs. While the service was fantastic and we loved her, the food was not good…. searing a steak needs to be on a hotter surface to get a good crust and the sides need to be rendered as well. We did not complain in person as we didn’t want to waste any food. Just something to be aware of. Thanks so much.
