Well… Hells Bells.. You know when you visit this proprietorship and the staff remember you from years past, I gotta say that just Rocks! Normally there is no wait, menu is straight forward. Think IHOP but better ingredients and staff. The s should be illegal. The Chocolate pie will not survive the trip back to South Padre!! Our kids live a couple miles from here so during the Ho Ho ho holiday, we probably eat here 3 or 4 times in our 10 day excursion to the show me state.
Shout out to Ms. Callie. This young lady not only remembered us, but our names as well. Move this your lady up the chain. She is a fantastic employee..
All in all. It’s a solid choice if leftovers are no longer getting the job done!

We came to Perkins for the $9 burger, fries, and pie deal. I haven’t been to Perkins since I was a kid, so I was genuinely surprised by what an awesome experience we had there today!

First, the food: they gave us a generous helping of fries that were perfectly crisp and seasoned. My wife and I both felt these were some of the best fries we’ve had. The burger was delectably juicy and topped with fresh, crisp lettuce, onions, and tomato. The burger was tender, but the veggies provided the right crunch. The pies were, perhaps, the least surprising part of the meal because I remember that Perkins pies were always very good. I forgot to take pictures, but my wife got the apple pie and I got the cherry pie. Both were fantastic.

Second, the service was immediate and attentive. Our waitress got everything right, brought out the food quickly, and timed the check spot on.

Finally, the atmosphere hasn’t changed any from my memories as a child, and that’s not a bad thing. Nothing felt run-down, but the decor feels like “Perkins”. One thing I really appreciated about their booths is that the tables aren’t nailed down, which is great for bigger guys like me because we can move the table to get a little more room.

My wife and I really enjoyed our experience. This was a nice date-night treat for us!

We were looking for somewhere to eat late and we came to Perkins in Lee Summit the server Emma was beyond exceptional. Her customer service skills in how friendly she was to my family. My nephew and daughter was well beyond anything that you can ever experience. I recommend everyone if you ever hungry come to Perkins ask for server Emma, and you will be treated like family.

Had lunch at Perkins for the first time in 20 years. Ordered the classic hamburger special that came fries and a slice of pie for $9.99. Hamburger was good, but kinda hard to mess up a burger. Small serving of fries and small piece of pie but for $9.99, it was a good deal. Seated immediately and waitress was pleasant and helpful. Overall a good experience for lunch.

Our waitress Cassie, was absolutely amazing. She was so friendly and truly went above and beyond to make our experience great. Her positive attitude and attentiveness made everything better. A great waitress like her makes a huge difference, and we’ll definitely be back because of her!! She should get a raise!!

Coming to Perkins is a thing me and my dad like to do together. Tonight we went out and we had the sweetest waitress! Her name is Emma. She is so kind and really made sure we were satisfied with our food. She made sure to frequently check on us and we had such a nice friendly conversation. I usually don’t open up to people that easy but Emma was so naturally welcoming and sweet. The food was great and the atmosphere was incredibly relaxing. Perfect dinner with my dad. I hope to see Emma next time we visit. The nicest waitress I have ever encountered before!

Stopped in Lee’s Summit location for pie and coffee and Server Cassie told me about the burger, fries and pie deal. Food was at the table within 10 minutes, hot, fresh and delicious. Cassie was friendly and gave excellent service. Was an even better stop than I had planned for.

Perkins used to be a great destination for breakfast.

Used to be.

Today I went after deciding between a couple other near by breakfast places, and honestly feel I made the wrong decision.

To say, “My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined” doesn’t even begin it.

First off, this isn’t the Perkins experience I remember. Their breakfast always had a unique taste to it that couldn’t be replicated anywhere else.

This food tasted generic and bland. Every bite. I have heard that there’s a certain food supplier that now delivers food to 85% of the restaurants in the country – their trucks start with S and end with Co and their name sounds like a critic who reviewed movies with Ebert – so I don’t know if that is what is going on here.

The eggs looked like they came from a depressed chicken who was on the verge of ending it all. The hash browns were unevenly cooked and lacked any real good taste. I have had better hash browns out of a frozen bag in the grocery aisle.

I ordered a pancake meal. The waitress asked me if I wanted hash browns or breakfast potatoes with that. The operative word “With that.” She made it sound like it was included with the meal.

It also came with only one sausage patty so I figured to order a couple more. Now part of that is certainly my fault for not asking first how much they were, but I guess I didn’t expect two patties to cost nearly FIVE DOLLARS when a package of Jimmy Dean turkey sasuage patties can be bought at the grocery store for 3.99 for about 10 ounces. Two patties at Perkins costs more than entire package costs in the store, and you know full well they buy them in stock so they are getting them cheaper than 3.99 for every 10 ounces. The mark up is outrageous.

But even more outrageous for a couple flimsy pancakes, depressed looking eggs, hash browns cooked unevenly, and three sausage patties, I was facing a nearly $30.00 bill for breakfast.

The waitress brings me a device before she even brought me my receipt. Any restaurant I’ve been in, they bring my receipt first then I pay. She brings me a device and I blindly pay then get my receipt to see what I was charge for.

How did it come up to nearly $30.00? Not only did they charge me nearly $5.00 for two sausage patties, but they had the audacity to charge me $5.00 for the flimsy amount of hashbrowns I got. The same ones that she made it sound like it was included with the meal, no mention of being deceitful and upselling me.

Despite the mid quality food and questionable practices with their service, I still left a good tip, but that’s my last bill and my last tip I will ever give to Perkins, so I hope it was worth it in the end.

The food was great, and Emma is the absolute best! Every detail was on point. The meat loaf was just right, and everyone knows Perkins has the best pie around. Their chocolate silk is out of this world! Good value for the money. Emma brought my order out immediately when it was done, and checked in on me regularly to make sure I had the best possible dining experience. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
