Angie's Kitchen - Waterloo

Had to check this place out and glad we did! Stopped in for a late lunch, food was good, drinks are way over priced. Best part was the cinnamon buns and brownies, best I have ever had!!Seating is tight, booths need to be bigger! Was very busy when we were there, staff were friendly, but seemed a little chaotic with staff.

We were in Waterloo for the weekend and chose Angie's because there was no line up to get it and we wanted to try a local restaurant vs a chain like Cora's or Symposium. Mistake number 1. We waited to be seated as there appeared to be no one in charge of new arrivals or cash desk. When we did get seated we were not given menus for at least 10 minutes. We waited as the staff seemed busy taking orders to tables and we didn't want to disturb them. Mistake number 2. We gave the waitress our order and continued to wait. We over heard the 3 tables on either side of us either send back food that wasn't cooked properly, get the wrong food order or wrong drink order. Our meal came before our drinks! Never had that happen before. The bacon was very greasy, not crispy at all! The rest of the food was good temperature and flavour, I even got a refill on my coffee, but by then the restaurant was less than half full. Would probably not go back, maybe to pickup some cinnamon buns that looked good but we didn't try. The staff said they were short staffed and some were in training, Excuses and Apologies should be the name of this restaurant.

Great fresh baked goods but so so place to eat at. Have been there 3 times over the last year - twice and most recently for breakfast and once for diner. Staff are very nice and friendly, place is quaint - breakfast both times was okay - dinner was so so - find the prices a hit high for the diner scene. That said the fresh baked goods are amazing. And there are some in Kitchener Waterloo that will swear by it and make it a tradition. I am just not one of those - not likely to go there again.

This is their 55th year and it reminded me of small town diners from years gone by. Server was very friendly and genuine, actually; she was the best part. The plastic menus could do with a vinegar wipe down as they were greasy and sticky.Giant teapot makes for weak tea, I suggest you put the bag in your mug then pour the water over, otherwise you'll be there waiting for it to steep all day. Eggs were cooked as ordered and the home made home fries were good but would have been much better without the overdose of Lawry's seasoning salt.$8.99 for two eggs, 3 strips of bacon (one tasted a little off), home fries, toast & jam seemed a little high.The cinnamon buns are apparently also house made and aren't bad, a little pricey and there's something else in there I couldn't put my finger on, perhaps nutmeg.Outside patio in summer.Free parking lot for 2 hours but remember, this is on the one way Erb St.

The restaurant was empty for a Saturday evening at 6 pm which seemed curious. The menu consisted of maybe 6-7 items or the choice of buffet. The options on the buffet mirrored the items on the menu with the exception of two! So we chose the buffet.The food was plain, too hot, no flavour at all and the mashed potatoes were runny. The atmosphere was okay as we were pretty much alone and the servers okay. Had to hunt down the server to ask for refills on our water and they charged us for a refill on a pop beverage which I think is odd. The restaurant is definitely a landmark in the area so I expected much better.Overall the food is substandard at least at this buffet and not worth the money we spent.I will not go again. I can get better value and variety somewhere else.Sorry!
