Crazy Otto's Diner

John Walker

We were looking for a breakfast spot near thousand trails rv park in Soladad canyon. We searched Google and found Crazy Otto's nearby, so we decided to give them a try. They were not very busy and we were seated immediately, the waitress was at the table in just a few minutes ready to take or drink order. We ordered coffee and then began studying the menu. They have a wide selection of normal breakfast items, and a few other interesting breakfast options. We made our choices and prepared our coffee. After a few minutes our food arrived. I had 2 eggs over medium with thick sliced bacon, hash browns, gravy and biscuits. The eggs were cooked perfectly, also the bacon was cooked well, however it was not thick it was normal thickness and tough. It was very stringy. The hash browns were very hard, I asked for crispy, but these were way beyond crispy. I actually cut the roof of my mouth on them. They were much wider than normal hash browns, they looked like small pasta noodles, very greasy. The gravy was awful it had a very strange flavor and was the consistency of wallpaper paste, I took 1 bite and I had enough. The biscuits were plain no flavor and turned to crumbs when you touched them. Very disappointed in the meal. It was $17.50 and the coffee was $3.99 for the very small cup of which I was only offered 1 warm up. The coffee was good. My wife ordered waffles and eggs with sausage patties. She also ordered her eggs over medium and they were cooked correctly. The waffles were about 6" in diameter and looked like a prepared waffle, they were very plain tasting and they were served cool, 4 small pats of fake butter that never had a chance to melt. The sausage was one larger patty that was very tough with a strange flavor. Another disappointment that was $17.50 plus the $3.99 coffee. We were offered only 1 warm up on the coffee and the waitress never checked back in with us. She brought the check as the meal was being served, never to be seen again. A few other observations during our visit. A waitress was chasing flys and killing them was the dishcloth then using the same cloth to wipe down the tables. The same waitress was bringing a to go cup to a table, dropped the lid and uncovered straw on the floor, which she then gave to the customer. On the menu it says that Crazy Otto's has been voted the number 1 breakfast in the area for 20+ years, which I find hard to believe. Unless there are just not any other places that serve breakfast. One other observation that I found funny, was they were nice enough to include the tip percent on the check for your convenience 10%-25%. I asked myself for what? We ended up with a $43.04 check for 2 people to eat breakfast. We will not be returning customers.

First time trying this place out. Was not fully convinced about AV's best breakfast. Prices are a bit high but portions make up for it. They stuffed my to go order in one box and pancakes got all soggy with grease from the sausage and eggs. Also some pancakes were not fully cooked through.
