I am not the type of person that tries new and interesting things on restaurant menus but I love a potato pancake. I had the potato pancakes and they were studded with onions, bacon, cheese and flavour. I really enjoyed them because of their crispy cheesy edges although I couldn’t eat it all because they came with eggs and three sausage links. I also got a pancake on the side and it was a decent pancake. My husband got the crab omelette and it was stuffed with crab. He also said the hollandaise sauce was good because it’s a lighter sauce than most other places serve. Our server was nice and friendly. She made sure the coffee was flowing and kept us updated on our order because they were pretty busy. I also appreciate their diverse staff and it was a very friendly and welcoming environment.

Great food and good service. They serve breakfast lunch and dinner the whole day, and they have a huge selection of all 3 meals. This is a decent location if you have a big group. The atmosphere is a bit bland, however, as it seems they are focused more on the food and less on being esthetically pleasing.

We don’t know why we haven’t been here for so long. But it was great. Service fantastic! Food was tasty and the price was very reasonable. The Dutch baby pancake with butter and lemon to die for❣❣❣ This is going on our rotation!

Stopped in here with a friend. Very friendly staff, quick to take order. Food promptly arrived fresh and hot. Coffee was decent. Lots of menu items to choose from! This chain doesn’t exist in California as far as I know, so I expected Denny’s-style food and atmosphere. I was pleasantly surprised with much better food and service. Great prices too.

On a whim, husband and I drove out for a lunch date. On Easter. We ended up at Elmer’s, and got breakfast. It was great. Everything was cooked to perfection; wonderfully seasoned and nothing overcooked or undercooked. Service was attentive but not overbearing. Prices reasonable. Very highly recommend. Will return.

I can’t believe I’m just now discovering this diner! Excellent service. We loved both our meals and will definitely return. Both entrees are worthy of reordering. Reuben sandwich with coleslaw and the stuffed hash brown (breakfast). The biscuit, wow, is the star…reminded me of my mom’s homemade.

We came here for breakfast. We ordered the ranchers breakfast and the potato cake breakfast. The portions were large but took a while to get. The service was okay and the building was clean.

Good portions and delicious food options. When we went it was very busy, yet there was nothing to complain regarding service. We got a coffee, a hot chocolate, French toast and a vegetarian egg bowl. These came with some scrambled eggs and hash browns. Highly recommend. Great ambience to bring family!

What a wonderful place! My family has been in WA for 2 years and this is by far the best service and food we’ve had! All of the staff were incredibly friendly, hard working, efficient and genuine. The food was outstanding. We got the fish, shrimp and chips in lieu of an appetizer. My husband had the beer battered cod, prime rib dip and chowder and loved them all. I had the stuffed hashbrowns, which was fabulous. My energetic 4 year old nibbled a little on her chicken strips, but chowed down on the shrimp and fries, while stealing all of my grapes before she started playing under the table. We did not use the restrooms, but judging by how everything else looked, they were likely spotless as well. I mentioned to our server it was our first time visiting and she brought us a lovely, welcoming letter with a coupon to use on our next visit! We will certainly be back very soon! I think we found our new favorite spot! Thank you to the staff we interacted with for the 5 star service and also thank you to everyone in the kitchen for the fantastic feast!
