Review of Skillets Cafe & Grill

They have plenty of gluten-free options; pancakes, waffles, toast & French toast. The atmosphere is great. The food was good my over medium eggs were not jellied in the middle like an over medium egg would be but not very many people in this world I've noticed seems to know how to get in between the over easy and over hard. The gluten-free bread was soft and full of flavor. I bet that the gluten-free bread would be good on a french toast if they spice it properly. The grits were really good and full of buttery flavor. They only gave me like maybe a quarter to a half a cup of grits in a bowl. But between the two over easy that we're supposed to be over medium eggs, two slices of gluten-free toast and the small bowl of grits were enough to be filling. It was $11 for the three items, with a cup of hot water (they allowed me to add my own green tea). The customer service sucked throughout the whole place though. My waitress was not rude but not pleasant if that makes sense. She was not happy friendly wanting to help me. It was more like she's just there because she has to be. The lady at the front was very disconnected emotionally. I noticed that there's no gluten-free indicators on the menu at all so I went back up front and asked if they had a gluten-free menu and she told me to go look at the menu it's on there. The only thing indicated on that menu for gluten-free is a little tag at the bottom that says gluten-free options available talk to your server. The server was very knowledgeable about gluten-free options. She did not reassure me that my items were gluten free even after telling her that I'm allergic to wheat. I had to question and ask again to make sure that it was gluten free & safe. The atmosphere is great it's like a 50s diner with music to match. It's just the people down to the potential of the atmosphere. No one was lively or happy that worked there at all. It always shows when people are happy to be at work and when people aren't. Since it's cold and raining outside I decided to go back in and change into warmer clothes and I told the woman at the front that I would like to go back into the restroom and change into something more comfy and she just responded oh that's fine without even looking up at me. I smiled and looked at her and happily said that's a lot more comfy now in this. She just kind of grunted again without even looking up. I don't know what's happened to this world but I really would like to find a place where I can encounter happy friendly people.
