Famous Amos was a solid choice. We went for Saturday breakfast. The ambiance is oldschool southern diner - no fancy specials or flavors. Just stick to your ribs and fill you up southern cooking. The biscuit were the best I've had in a while- a little crust on the outside with soft buttery goodness on the inside. My crew says the sausage gravy was equally delicious. I had the fried tomatoes with grits, toast, and eggs over easy. All done well. Service was workmanlike and prompt. No small talk on a busy Saturday, but accurate & courteous despite the busy crowd.

When it comes to finding a restaurant that serves up delicious food in a cozy and welcoming atmosphere, Famous Amos is a top contender. Located in an older style diner, the restaurant boasts a charming decor that is sure to transport you back in time. The service is top-notch, with friendly and courteous staff who go above and beyond to ensure that your experience is nothing short of exceptional. The Amos bacon cheeseburger is a must-try, loaded with fresh lettuce, tomato, and onion on a soft bun, and served with a side of crispy french fries. The waitstaff is attentive and knowledgeable, and the pricing is more than reasonable for the quality of food and service you receive.

Husband and I stopped in for breakfast on a Sunday morning and was surprised on how little staff there was to accomodate almost a full house with a few bigger parties seated. Logistics seemed to be running smooth for how busy it looked. We walked in and it was a seat yourself welcome. We nestled into a booth and did a once over of the menu. Great value on the meals compared to most chain breakfast restaurants and I could say they didn't skim on any options you wanted. We ordered the typical staples, pancakes, eggs, bacon, sausage, grits, side of biscuit and gravy, home fries and a few other sides. We came hungry and our little booth ran out of space for the plates. Overall enjoyed our dine in experience and will probably do another visit to try their lunch and dinner options. We saw fried fish and fried chicken dinners that were specials on the Weekly Specials Menu. Beats having fried grease and clean up at home!

Cute old style diner. Excellent friendly service! Family dining experience with comfortable booths and old fashioned decor. I almost ordered the wagon wheel breakfast with eggs, grits, meat pancakes etc but another guest had the shrimp and grits and it looked too good to pass up. Oh my am I am so glad ! Shrimp and grits heaven with a perfect mild creole sauce and fresh diced tomatoes! My husband ordered chicken and mushrooms with onions and cornbread. He said it was good ended up asking for more onions. The only thing I would say is the bathroom could be cleaner in the toilet are the plumbing on floor area could stand a deep clean.

This place has been here forever. We came here pretty early 6:45am. We were acknowledged immediately and told to choose any seat in this section. Sat down and our waiter Craig took my immediate drink order and brought my hot coffee creamer and sweetener and our menus. Took a minute to order I got the pecan waffle and eggs with bacon. He got the pancakes and with eggs and sausage. I tell you Waffle House who? IHOP who? My waffle was perfectly crispy outside and soft inside and no skimping on the pecans. The pancakes were so fluffy. The eggs cooked perfectly and my bacon (which I find is sporadic to get it just the way I want) was exceptionally crispy and soft at the same time like I hoped and made me happy. I forget about this place but haven't had a bad experience here yet. I have to keep this place in mind anytime I want a delicious breakfast.

Laid back atmosphere where you can still get a good meal at a reasonable price. Even without the fancy layouts of other restaurants this place still provides a staple for some of the older customers who are on a tight budget.

Like being at Grandma's for lunch or dinner. Home cooked meals expertly prepared. Miss the restaurant on San Jose Blvd now closed and occupied by a marijuana shop! It was always a happy place for me.

Met a friend for lunch today. We both ordered the club sandwiches. I prefer mine with only two pieces of bread and chose Turkey and bacon with fries. The fries were lovely, hot and perfectly crispy. The bacon was also cooked to perfection. No skimpy deli Turkey either. It was so big I could hardly fit it in my mouth. My friend opted for the normal three slices of bread but wanted all four of the meat choices. She had Turkey, bacon, ham and roast beef. Also with fries which were lovely, hot and crispy. She asked for ranch to dip them in and was provided that without a problem. Our waitress was excellent, keeping our drinks full without asking. She came back to check on us frequently but was not over intrusive. Overall, I was very impressed with my first trip here. After this service I'm sure I'll be back. Can't believe I forgot to take a picture but suffice it to say there were no left overs.

I cannot say that the place is dirty. It's just not clean. I went there for breakfast. Small town not that many options. They just did not have any mark. The eggs were greasy. The pancake / it was sweet for some reason. And the coffee was not a hot. Just not a good breakfast.

I've been to FA many times and enjoyed the food and service. However, recently they've become slack in having enough people to wait on tables in the evening. Last night we waited more than an hour before getting our food. Prior to that, we ordered drinks and waited more than 30 minutes before flagging down another waitress and asked to be moved to another table because we couldn't get the attention of our waitress. After we moved, it was the same thing. We had to flag the waitress or actually walk up to the back counter to ask for more water! This is not what I've been used to and won't make FA a priority in dining anymore.The food is good once you actually get it, by the way, but is it actually worth the wait?
