Lakeside Restaurant

I've been here once prior to this visit for breakfast with a friend and the food was great then so decided to try it for breakfast with my husband. There was one server and one cook (I think he may be the owner because he cooked my food when I came for breakfast). Service was a little slow, but it didn't really matter all that much to us. A couple things to note: they do not have a drink machine, everything soda related was in cans and while we were here, the only selection was sprite, Diet Coke or Pepsi(can't recall which), and Mtn Dew. They are warm and are served with a glass of ice. I ordered the breaded pork tenderloin and it does not indicate on the menu, but it comes with a heavy brown sauce, carrots (or a vegetable) and mashed potatoes. When it was set in front of me, I did not have high hopes but whooooooa was it good. Like every part of the dish was fantastic. My husband had the burger and he said it was great, too. I tried his "fries" and they were crispy on the outside and like mini mashed potatoes on the inside. Soooo good.The interior is very much mid century modern and I loved it. It's quirky. Overall very pleased with my second experience and will be back again!

The farmers teak was flavorful. I enjoyed it with eggs. The fruit plate was large. The prices were great.

I love a small quaint diner feel but this place was like stepping into the twilight zone. The waitress shouldn't be waiting tables, maybe she saves her personality for the regulars but she was cold and unwelcoming.She never came back to the table after taking our order,we had to flag down the busboy to get water and other condiments. I actually wanted to leave as soon as we arrived and should have. The owner was the only one cooking so food was coming out rather slow(which had it been good wouldn't have been an issue). I think the only people who are giving this place a good review are the regulars who go there because they go behind the counter to get what they want. A patron went behind the counter and served himself coffee and then proceeded to actually make another pot. I guess people go here because the prices are cheap because it's not the food. Burnt and no flavor.

The restaurant is nice, very open air, service is wonderful, food is good, but a little expensive.

My very first time at this place and will be my last. Horrible Food!! Hash Brown was burnt and egg shells in my omelet. Not to mentioned the slow service.

Good food and good service friendly people in a cute little town best burgers around that area try it you will like it. Home cooking

Cute little diner in downtown Antioch and that's about all that's good about it. When I walked in, it was as if I was interrupting a conversation between two of the employees (maybe one was an owner or manager?). They turned to me and said, "Can I help you?" I responded by saying, "One for breakfast." It was such a an awkward and odd way to be greeted. The hospitality didn't stop there. The waitress and, let's call her manager, carried on a very personal conversation about family conflict which drowned out the tv playing The Price is Right.The service was lackluster and I truly felt like I shouldn't have interrupted their conversation by trying to have a meal. Not one smile on anyone's face except an older gentleman (possibly Bobby?) toward the end of my meal that filled my coffee with a great attitude. If everyone had his demeanor the experience would be much better. The waitress could take a lesson as there were no customer service skills. Now on to the food. I ordered cup of coffee and the "Field Hand Special" which is 2 eggs (poached), hash browns, ham, and biscuits and gravy. The eggs were cooked perfectly, but neither they more anything else was seasoned. It all came on cold plates which rendered the food a lukewarm temp and only became worse as I ate. I love breakfast and will sometimes I'll have two entrees at a diner like this. Here I didn't finish one. The biscuits and gravy was not made from scratch and it showed with gummy flavorless gravy that I have no idea when it was cooked. The ham was cold and rubbery. Hash browns oily. It was a disappointing experience because I was so hopeful for a small town diner to represent the community and be a go-to place for a solid breakfast. Other reviewers are right about how they treat the regulars as a few came in while I was eating. Even with modest prices there is nothing to pull me back to give the place another shot. Two stars. Would be one put the one friendly staff and the quality poaching of eggs give it one more.

Waitress was not very welcoming. Made us feel uncomfortable but since we're there already we decided to try it out. Food was ok I have to say.

This is a hidden gem! We've come for an old fashioned home cooked breakfast and it has not disappointed! (This is our third visit) No frills, quality food priced fairly. We will return!

Love stopping in to one of our favorite restaurants in Antioch. Great place to eat. Bobby makes an awesome burger! Silvana is always so pleasant and makes us feel at home.
