couzin's cafe

not so sure why everyone raves about this place like i'm honestly confused why people say the food is good! my english muffin was stale and hard as a rock. confused as to why reviews mention good country fried steak. i waited 30 minutes for something that was undercooked inside and burnt on the outside... it was also just very unappetizing. brown bag had the best country fried steak until they changed their recipe and for less than this place! $15 for something chewy and rubbery? i won't be going back. the eggs were okay but definitely not over medium which is what i asked for. the gravy was watery. the hash browns were mushy/undercooked on the inside and unseasoned. if i wanted to have the most plain plate of hash browns i would have just gone to safeway and bought myself some to cook at home. it would have matched the level ofservicei received at couzins cafe! the cinnamon roll my boyfriend ordered clearly came from a package cause it was chalky and i saw a seam from packaging. it also was bland except for the cream cheese icing which was sort of an odd flavor. the bright side of that is we only wasted $4 on that. overall a very bad experience with the food, atmosphere and service. we got the nice "repaired" booth seat in the back too so yeah i for sure think that the food is way overpriced for the restaurant it's in. if your friends recommend this place to you they are absolutely crazy. don't try it!!

went there for my birthday, 11-15-15.  they made me a strawberry's souffle, which was fantastic.  this is my third trip to couzin's, again great customerserviceand healthy portions for reasonable price.

i think, this is the best breakfast place on the eastside and i'm really, really picky...

we went on a sunday and there was definitely a line out the door to this tiny spot. we were lucky that space opened up for us in about half and hour andservicewas pretty quick! i rarely had american full breakfast and decided to go all out with country fried steak. crisp english muffin (with loads of butter), crisp hash brown and runny sunny side up — checked. not wow but tasty. the beef was thin, tender and crisp, with great flavors in the breading. i only wish the gravy was not as starchy; it was a little sticky to the teeth and palate. flavor of the gravy was good – nice peppery chicken flavor, what i would expect in a good diner.

i liked this little café quite a bit. theservicewas friendly, the portions were generous, and the food tasted good.

greatserviceand the breakfast food is delicious! definetly will come back to try lunch!
