First time here this morning and was very impressed. Everything tasted great and was hot and fresh. Only comment is that my toast was a little well done for my liking.

We do breakfast takeout regularly from Erin. Her portions have not gotten smaller. We have noticed this demoralizing trend from other places, but not with her. Her skillets are the best we have ever had. They even know who we are when we call. There is also a very comfortable family feel to her place. Ask about her specials! Cheers, Paul

Orders a corn beef sandwich. It was disgusting. It was covered with probably 1 1/2 tablespoon of mustard. I was shocked and when we showed the sandwich to the owner she said “I can bring you another piece of bread “. Really, she should have replaced the whole sandwich or discounted the price.

Erin was a SUPERSTAR! What a delightful experience of charm, humour, positivity and kindness! This young lady welcomed me into the restaurant although it was almost closing time. She might have sensed my worry over my car stalling on me, and me being so thirsty and hungry on a hot day! She insisted I stay cool in the restaurant, suggested delicious food options and kept me entertained, all while I was worried to leave quickly to let them close up. What a kind person who exemplifies customer service and making a memorable client experience! Wow! 5+ stars for Erin!! Thank you. :) P.S. Erin deserves a significant raise!!! Like this review to get Erin a RAISE!!! :)

Food is consistently great whenever we go, server was super friendly and accommodating even when we asked to switch tables further from the kitchen. Menu and atmosphere was geared to Moms for Mother’s Day which was so nice! Only downside was having to ask for coffee top-ups instead of being offered. Otherwise wonderful and charming place.

Ordered the Buffalo Chicken wrap and it didn't disappoint! I've been here multiple times and always had amazing tasting food, fast and friendly service, and a relaxing atmosphere. I also suggest this place to friends when deciding where to go. 100% worth trying if you haven't been here yet. 10\10 would recommend!!

Good selection of lunch and breakfast favorites along with a few house specialties. The Onion rings will spoil you for eating them anywhere else!

Super slow, 35 mins for food to get to our table, fries were over cooked. The coleslaw was bland and no taste. The wrap was good.

Food was good.. my burger came on a little wood cutting board and was very messy. l and no where really to put it down because they had the onion rings standing up on a skewer.. i prefer a plate ...service awful! Wish I could give ZERO stars. Got the bill b4 we got our food... asked for a pop..had to ask someone else asked for napkins never them...table wiped down yet there was still sticky syrup on it.. ordered 2 yogurt desserts got 1..for a small hole in the wall with maybe 10 tables I would hate to see that waitress in a larger scale place..I really didnt even wanna tip service was that bad! Prob never go back Parking: Cars are just kinda lined up no real parking close by

Not good. They put my toast and home fries on my boyfriend s plate and vice versa. Shredded hash browns were no good, food was under seasoned in general. Coffee was okay for the first few sips and became absolute garbage afterwards. Was served a warm slimy watermelon slice. Also they gave us the bill with our food it s a no from me. Update: changed to 1 star. seemed to have also given boyfriend and I food poisoning. Vegetarian options: Only 2 options

We are just back from our first visit to Potkas Kitchen, and are already looking forward to the next. What a find it is. Knowing nothing of the restaurant, we found that it had good reviews. And they are well earned. We opted for the Bennies Skillet and the Dilly Chicken pita. Both excellent, the skillet particularly so. All ingredients are very fresh, flavourful, and clearly good quality. Deeee~lish! Even the sides, like the slaw in the edible bowl, and yes, the Onion rings have that hand made flair. The menu is quite large, so tempting options were aplenty. Much to look forward to for sure. We were very well fed at a quite reasonable price. Potkas is tucked away just a bit, but well worth finding. Enjoy.

Ordered the Thanksgiving meal from here because I tore my MCL and couldnt really do the cooking this year. Just wanted to come on here and say that it was absolutely fantastic! It came with sliced up real turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, mashed sweet potatoes, and a dinner roll. I just did some canned corn and bought a pie and my whole family really really enjoyed it. Everything was excellent. Probably better than my own cooking, and 100x easier. Think I found a hack for Christmas this year too! Lol.

Added a Greek salad and delighted that they added sliced beets - never had that before in a salad - WOW! To top it all off - had to ask what they had for desserts and had the cream pie with wild blueberries - I was in heaven! Staff and owner super friendly - can tell they take pride in their customers and do a terrific job with their food! Can t wait to return!

Love the warm homey ambience and the cheerfulness with which they take our orders.
