Brandon's Diner

Brandon’s diner. We had the steak and chicken fajita combo, and a fried zucchini appetizer, along with the free chips and salsa. We had the fajita plate done as a special order. Normally in addition to the rice you see here, it would include beans, sour cream and guacamole. We chose to not have those items. Service: the service on the day of our visit was great. It was a little slow and later in the evening, so not many customers in there, we got our food quicker than expected, and exactly as requested. The fried zucchini came so fast that we both hadn’t finished washing our hands yet by the time it came! The food temperature: served HOT, even the chips were still warm. The fajitas were sizzling (in the live photo version of this, you can hear the sizzle), the zucchini had to rest for a couple minutes, the rice and tortillas were a good temperature too. Consistency: everything was consistent all the way through the meal. No bad zucchini, no bad veggies or chicken, nothing undercooked, nor overcooked. Rice was perfect. Portion size: very generous serving of zucchini. We ended up taking most of this home and it reheated nicely in the air fryer as a side for 2 additional meals over the next few days. The fajitas were filling without being stuffing, for 2. Flavor: here is where they earned the 5 stars. These fajitas were GOOD. I mean, sopping up the juices with the leftover tortilla, good. I’m normally one to ask for extra lemon wedges to squeeze on the meat to add some flavor. But I didn’t need to do a thing. I couldn’t get enough of the flavor of whatever they marinated and cooked the fajita in. I took one bite and was hooked. My wife and I had been debating trying Brandon’s at several locations over the years, but never got around to it. Even once, pulling into the parking lot and deciding to go to somewhere more familiar. But now we are hooked. This meal was that good. Our only regret is that we didn’t try Brandon’s sooner. If all their dishes are made with this much care and flavor, we look forward to trying even more offerings.

Good food good mimosa flats, but get there early because some drinks sell out. We had a little bit of everything and I would definitely come back especially at that price point just next time I want that adult coffee

Our first visit, and we don't have high expectations but it is unlikely we will return. Service was just ok, my drink sat empty for a long time before it was refilled. No one checked on us or let us know the status of our order. It was 40 minutes from sitting down to getting our food, which is not reasonable at all, especially if no one has checked on us. We actually began discussion of just cancelling our food and leaving but that's when our food came out. My albondigas soup was just slightly above warm. It was a bigger portion than I expected and had good flavor but I wish it had been hot. My salad was huge, again a pleasant surprise, and well prepared. I had to ask several times for the bread that is supposed to come with it, and finally ended up asking for it to go. My daughter's food arrived incomplete so she had to wait for the rest of it, but she said it was very tasty. She had chicken tenders and fries. The drinks were very big, a huge plus. The server apologized for the kitchen, which I don't particularly care for, it feels like passing the buck. They were busy and I understand that, it's the lack of service we received that makes my rating not a high one.

Brandon's has great food. If you can get there early on weekends for breakfast before 9am. Otherwise you will have a wait for a table. I had the mixed berry crepes so goood.
