Perkins Restaurant & Bakery

I ate here last night with a wonderful friend. I can't believe how clean this restaurant looks! It's a cozy restaurant with wonderful home cooked food! I ordered a coffee with French vanilla creamers to drink. My friend and I both ordered the pot roast dinner, which came with two sides each. The gravy on the post roast tasted great! Good flavor, not too salty. For my two sides, I had a house salad with Bleu cheese dressing and macaroni & cheese. My friend had mashed potatoes and green beans with bacon. This was the main meal for our trip. We couldn't go wrong!!! Our waitress did a nice job of helping us. I had not eaten here or at any Perkins for quite a while, so she helped me decide what to get. I was so happy with my choice!!! When I stay here again in the area, we will surely come back to dine here!!!

Nothing great, average at best. Been in here twice, both times service was just ok, ordered breakfast both times and just average, plenty other places in town that has better breakfast and better service.

This Perkins can be seen from off the freeway but not very easy to get to unless you are staying at one of the hotels down the lengthy street. We decided to stop here because the Cracker Barrel was crowded and the parking lot was nearly full. Most guests or visitors would not venture further down the long street unless you were staying at the hotels located further away. Service took a while since there was a line at the cashier station and the worker was not able to handle the payments and bakery orders at the same time. Once we were seated, service became much better and the food arrived quickly. Overall, this was a good place for food but once the line forms to pay for your meal, and people are lined up for seating, you will unfortunately have to wait for the other line to disperse before you are seated. It's not a great system but if staffing is tight, that would be the alternative.

It has the feel and smells of a dying restaurant. Unbussed tables are everywhere. We'll see how the food is. Dessert served; no entrees, yet. . Nobody is bussing tables, so the dining room is a wreck, paper bits on the floor. Sounds like about six people are in the kitchen having fun. WHERE IS MANAGEMENT?! Only four tables are being used. Still fun in the kitchen. Forty minutes in. Fifty minutes in. I left $10 on the table to cover the desserts and walked out. The only response from the waitress was, "OK".

Perfect takeout meal late in the evening to take back to our hotel. The food was hot and high quality, and ready about 20 min after I placed the online order. We had pastas and salads. Highly recommend.

The food is delicious and the service is great. I'm glad Perkins is still in Lincoln, Nebraska. I use to go to the old location a lot on 48th & O streets here in Lincoln in 2018 and prior. I commend all who demanded to bring Perkins back in 2019. A+ on their service.

Meh on top of meh. The place was empty but still super slow. The food was bland unappealing. Nothing was really wrong with it but it just wasn't good. Like how you feel when you make a tv dinner, you aren't happy about it but you need to eat something and it is food so you eat it. That's the excitement this food engendered. I won't go to one star because it wasn't exactly bad it was just enthusiastically not good. And very slow. It was like a restaurant that has just given up on itself. Like if a restaurant could be that guy that peaked in high school and now is 45 in a dead end job with an ex and kids that won't speak to him so he drinks cheap beer and watches tv land reruns all night in his recliner, if that could be a restaurant, this particular Perkins is it.

Not great, but it's precisely what I'd expect from a chain-type place next to a hotel. What I did not expect was terrible service in a small midwest town. The waitress was annoyed by us and did not like when we asked for something in addition to what she brought out, like sugar-free syrup (I know I would never, but my grandmother needs to watch her sugar intake). The bacon came out soggy, and my mom asked if she could have it crispy, so that was a fail. My meal was decent. I had a veggie skillet and added broccoli. In fairness, the waitress could have had an off day, but there are way better places for breakfast, so I'd blow past this on the interstate.

Went in this morning and was seated immediately. Only 2 people. We say for 10 minutes and had multiple servers pass through our section. Nobody acknowledged us. Simple eye contact and a smile would've sufficed. We ended up leaving after 10 minutes of this. Disappointing because I really wanted Perkins breakfast

This Perkins location was very clean. The employees were all very friendly. And the food was good too!
