What They Claim

Good Enough to Eat brings fast food to a whole other level for the typical diner. They make their own food at the restaurant and cook everything fresh. They have everything from thick pancakes with syrup oozing on the top to fresh deserts that were made in the back especially for each customer. For dinner you can order meals like fish with chips and meatloaf with mashed potatoes, except the food is fresh and not just thrown together.

The restaurant supplies meals for all ages, and, because of this, children to adults come in droves to eat. There are so many customers for lunch that long lines fill the restaurant and the wait takes awhile. Good Enough to Eat also provides a catering service to help those who need food for special occasions, and it is affordable and good to eat. The interior of the restaurant is filled with knick-knacks and gives an appearance of a homey atmosphere for those who enter, and to top it off, the waiters are friendly and very inviting for customers and are willing to help if they are needed.

What We Say

The meals are overall very good at all times of day, and each customer receives what he asked for. It is made in the back and the food is enough to fill the customers up, with maybe a little room for desert. Customers are happy most of the time with the food, but there are times when the food is not up to pare with what they order.

Décor flows throughout the whole restaurant, bringing a unique twist to the restaurant scene. The homey atmosphere makes you feel at ease and able to relax with your meal. You feel like you don't have to rush in and rush out as soon as you get your order, and you can take time to eat your meal in peace. Children also can come and enjoy eating at a restaurant that is not just fast food. They can pick meals like fish and sticks and eat it happily as they chatter away at the table.

Quick Tip

If you get lunch at this restaurant, go a little later in the afternoon because lines will cause you to take awhile at the restaurant.
