cozy's cafe

good food but service is lacking.. i have eaten at cc several times and the food has beengoodeach time. however, today, upon entering the restaurant no one greeted us but a waitress glumly called out to us from across the room to sit anywhere. a friendly young man brought our drinks then we waited a long while before another unsmiling, unfriendly waitress took our order. the food was slow arriving but tasted good. the more mature waitresses are friendly enough but the two young ones have no social skills and they look so unhappy i feel bad for them. something is very wrong with management in that restaurant.

agoodlunch experience. i ordered the grilled tuscan panini with salad ($9.85) and a drink ($2.89) at my table. my order was delivered with a smile in about ten minutes. the panini was delicious, with tasty bread, flavorful cheese, fresh spinach, and premium chicken, but the amount of chicken was on the low end of acceptable. the salad was fresh and delicious. the service was friendly, and attentive. the interior was nicely furnished. the price is high for lunch.

ignored. my son and i walked into the place and were completely ignored. i was looking forward to a lovely meal but apparently we weren'tgoodenough.

great dining experience. after being told by agoodfriend, we went to cozy's for dinner and what a dining experience! we were greeted at the door with a smiling face (kim) and immediately felt at home. we chose to eat the osso bucco, chicken dish and they were both wonderful! it was a great dining experience and we wil definitely return. the pies were also very good!

good food with a friendly staff.. my wife and i went for dinner here and really enjoyed ourselves. the place was clean and the service was very good. the food we ordered was all tasty. in our estimation, the food was a little on the expensive side, and you certainly don't get large portions, but the other qualities of this place made it a prettygoodexperience.

cozy's cafe in kansas. i was looking at urban spoon for a restaurant near my hotel in overland park, kansas. i came upon cozy's cafe and thought the food looked amazing, so i hired a cab and got a ride over there. i walked in, not knowing if i should seat myself or if they would seat me. so after a little bit standing there and looking foolish, they finally told me i could seat myself. the waitress brought me water then left without asking if i'd like anything else to drink.(coffee). so once she came back i then asked. after seeing the crepes, i figured it would be agoodchoice. i decided to get the seasonal fruit crepes. they were 9.77 including tax. after they brought them out, i tried them. -honestly, they weren't that good, it tasted like they had put yogurt in it, which wasn't on the menu, and they weren't great quality for the cost. if i ever come back, i don't plan on eating there ever again...

anothergoodbreakfast spot. my family and i liked this place for breakfast. my spouse had the two crepes with fresh fruit and low fat yogurt served with an english muffin. we didn't understand why it was served with an english muffin, but okay… it wasgoodand enough to be filling. i wanted eggs benedict but the waitress said "we ran out of sauce yesterday", huh? i thought hollandaise sauce was just egg yolk, lemon juice and butter? oh well, i had a basic breakfast instead and it was fine. my son had french toast and a scrambled egg. no complaints from anyone. we enjoyed ourselves here and we were pleasantly surprised by the interior, pretty nice for a repurposed quik trip. we are putting this into our breakfast rotation.

not agoodchoice. my husband and i have passed this little place many times and i always suggested we try it for breakfast sometime. unfortunately, we did yesterday. although we received menus as soon as we sat down we were forgotten for about 15 minutes. i received my drink (milk) but my husband waited and waited and waited for the coffee he ordered to arrive. finally, a waitress (who i want to say seemed greek) arrived to take our order and when we asked about the coffee her answer was an abrupt "the coffee machine is acting up - you'll get it when it's ready" said as if we were bugging her. breakfast arrived. my scrambled eggs looked like the bottom of a cookie sheet -like they where probably cooked as a sheet full and cut to order. my husband's eggs benedict was cold. and, our biscuits and gravy were very bland. i like ketchup with my hashbrowns -so i immediately asked for ketchup-and our waitress must have forgotten this request taking the 5 steps back to the counter-cause she stood at the counter-did paperwork, talked to co-workers, delivered all her guest checks to all her tables, yadda yadda yadda-i got up and got my own damn ketchup. we usually give a restaurant another try or two just cause everyone has an off day once in a while but we're not coming back to cozy's ever.

the staff are very friendly. my wife really liked her breakfast croissant, which was lightly toasted with egg & havarti cheese. my prosciutto sandwich had great bread, but the eggs (which i got hard-fried) overpowered the meat and there was no manner of dressing; it was rather dry and not very well balanced in flavor. the hash browns were very basic and, for me, undercooked.goodcoffee, though.

not fond. i have tried this place 3 different times, once for breakfast and twice for lunch. the portions are vey small for the money. the only thing that was redeeming was that the quiche was creamy. the food isgoodfor the most part, put so expensive.

friendly service andgoodfood.. i've been to cozy's a few times now, but only for breakfast. i haven't been able to make it for dinner, but plan to. after the first time, kozy has graciously greeted me with whomever i've brought to try out one of my new favorite restaurants. one time, she even asked where "my man" was, since i was there with a female friend. she also remembers my usual order and that is the sign of a verygoodbusiness owner. i highly recommend cozy's for a casual, relaxedgooddining experience.

i won't be back. i made it in to cozy's again to try the burger. i ended up getting a triple with grilled onions. the taste was ok, but the burger patties were on par with silver dollar pancakes in terms of size, and the fries were undercooked for my taste but still edible. the real problem was the combo of the size/fries problem and a price of close to $8 (no drink). oh, and the bun was dry and fell apart just as a previous reviewer mentioned.

for my money i'd rather go to winstead's where i can get a dry bunned, bigger burger, with under-cooked fries for a little less $$$

(i actually like winstead's, but i have experienced the dry bun many times, and when don't they under-cook the fries?)

i'll be back. i intend to return to cozy's to sample a double or triple burger because they sounded like they'd begoodto me, but today i had the lasagna. i can't say i was impressed. the flavor was just ok, the salad was pretty bad, and the garlic bread was quite weak. what made the whole experience really suffer was the fact that this meal was a little over $10. totally not worth it. the burgers i mentioned seemed far more reasonable in comparison.

what i'd like to see is some albanian dishes on the menu because, as i understand it, the owner is albanian. i think serving some of the classic diner fare along with more exotic, authentic albanian food would be a much better way to go (keep the diner stuff because they have a fairly reliable clientele of oldsters who probably wouldn't go for the albanian stuff)

i hate to post after only one visit, but hey, whatever

really good, clean, excellent service-check update. had breakfast there over the weekend and it was very tasty. verygoodblueberry pancake. the eggs etc came out done perfectly as ordered. the price is average and the menu is not elaborate but appealing. oh, and the coffee was reallygood(it's surprising how often this detail is overlooked). i suggest you give it a try. i'm anxious to go back and try dinner.
update-april 2010
i hate to mess with peoples livelyhoods but i've eaten here quite a bit now and have noticed that the owner is somewhat a control freak and when it's crowded things get a little harried and disorganized. the owner has to be the one to take your order etc. and when it's busy that just makes the whole operation chaotic. also, the girl with the glasses looks so unhappy you'd swear she was going to hang herself in the bathroom any minute. i think the owner needs to chill a little-i see micromanaging at it's worst. the food continues to be good, they do need a little more selection for breakfast, i really don't like it as well as santa fe cafe and i'm not related to them or anything like that i really just like it somewhat better and have never been disappointed with anything there.

great food! delicious!. we can't get enough of this place. their breakfast is very good, with a lot of options for the whole family. for dinner try the tortellini pasta (yummy).goodprices.
