Wendell's

Killer breakfast joint! Our bartender was super nice and personable. The food was amazing. Loved the pancakes and Bloody Mary was delicious! Vegetarian options: Pancakes, waffles, avocado toast, etc. Parking: Parking on Tennyson Street.

It was a fun place to eat, and the weather was great! Most everything I ate was fabulous, but. I didn't love their gravy! It had a vinegary taste. I think there was pickled something in it! I will go back though! Parking: It's on Tennyson, so it's hit or miss with parking spots!

It's backwards day at Wendell's - instead of being waited on, you do the waiting. It's not that the service is bad, which it is, but that they just don't care about your time. I've tried a couple times now and was hoping they'd eventually figure it out, but they haven't. First time we came here it was awful. 30 minutes to get water, another 45 for food and it wasn't even a busy day. Eggs were undercooked and waffle was raw. Same result today: empty restaurant, yet no one can be bothered to pay attention to you, instead they're just chumming it up with their friends or re-cleaning already clean and set tables. We got coffees quick but then waited 30 minutes (no exaggeration!) before I had to flag the server down and ask to close out - no one had taken our order and I wasn't about to sit there another 45 minutes to find out if the food was going to be better than the service. She was flabbergasted and upset, three times telling me I should've said something. Maybe. But it's also not my job to tell you to check in on your tables. Most places would've comped the coffee or done something to give you a reason to come back. Here they just blame you for not wanting bad service. Again, backwards day here. There are too many other good places in the neighborhood for that kind of attitude and if that's the approach to service....maybe try something else? It's a shame, because the OG Wendell's was pretty good.
