★★★★★ 5.0 Clara Camilo · May 2025

We were excited to try Perkins and found the opportunity to do so during a cross-country move after hearing so much about it. This location did not disappoint! The breakfast was fresh, delicious, and very reasonably priced. The staff was incredibly accommodating, even though we were in a rush. They made sure everything came out fast without compromising quality. Great service, great food, the perfect break we needed on our long drive!

My son and I got there for breakfast this morning around 9:30. We ordered within a few minutes. We needed to get to district wrestling at Lincoln Northstar that started at 10. So we figured we had until 10:30-10:45 before we needed to get there before my son’s cousin had to wrestle. 10:05 I asked the waitress to make this order to-go. I hear go back to the kitchen to ask if they had started on table 12’s order and they said something back there. At 10:15 the table next to us mentioned that it took an hour to get their food. The table that came in after us got up and left, then I tell another server that we have to leave. Just as I walked out the door, our initial server comes out with our food. We pay and leave with the food. There was no silverware, which was probably an oversight since t

We are new residents to Lincoln and have been slowly trying new-to-us places to eat. After months of seeing billboards with ads for Perkins, we finally tried it today for breakfast. The restaurant is clean and with a cozy atmosphere, the staff very friendly, and the service prompt. Our orders were correct, however there was no flavor to any of it. My husband had a pancake plate and I had the French toast. The plates looked good, but everything was bland and the syrup very thin, so thin that it kept dripping with each bite. Service and atmosphere are 3 stars, food is 1 star, so review rating is 2. Will not be eating here again, we'd rather go to Cracker Barrel or Village Inn.

I spent a lot of money to be disappointed with the food. Half our order was wrong. There was grilled tomatoes i never ordered. The eggs were bland and potatoe shreds were gross. Tasted like the grill needed to be cleaned. My daughter orange juice was literally watered down. It was water. No taste of orange juice at all. The skillets were skimpy. Tasted bad. I was so disappointed. Horrible experience. Don't order if want good food. Not sure I should even call and complain because they won't do anything.

WOW!!! Such a disappointment 😞 very unpleasant visit today i went to this location and I will never come back and u shouldn't waste ur time as well. After waiting close to 15 mins to even be greeted then another like 15 mins to get or order In then another 30 mins for food so 1 hour wasted 🙃 the food was horrible well over cooked for sure the mushrooms were black and burnt to crisp then my wife's was as well completely burnt inside as well the proper portion for hashbrows as a joke . Then after explaining this situation a gentleman came and didn't ever seem like he cared didn't introduce him self noting I left with no interest in even trying the food u get 1 star poor service at best. Does this look like something u should be serving ur customers? Round 2 its 9:55 came in to gett late din
