Perkins American Food Co.

We recently visited this Perkins location and I want to start by saying the wait staff was absolutely wonderful. You could tell they were a bit short-staffed during our visit, which led to longer wait times, but the staff remained friendly, attentive, and did their best. There also weren’t many people in the restaurant at the time, so we appreciated their effort even more. I ordered the Frisco melt with fries. It was okay overall — nothing bad, but nothing memorable either. The sandwich was pretty bland and lacked seasoning, so I ended up dipping it in ranch to add flavor. The fries, however, were hot and fresh. My wife ordered the shrimp and rice skillet, and unfortunately this was disappointing. The skillet itself was completely cold to the touch, which is unusual since these dishes are

Really disappointed with my order today. I was looking forward to country fried steak after a long 12-hour night shift, but it was hard, burnt, and barely had any gravy. It honestly tasted reheated in the microwave. This will be my last time ordering.

First time having been at this Perkins, I will definitely be back. Jody and Brooke were wonderful! Very caring making sure the order was correct. The food was prepared very good and we actually had a hot meal, not lukewarm. Jody was fun to talk with while she was taking our order. Brooke took time to check on all the customers orders to make sure everything was fine. She was very nice to talk with.

The service at Perkins in Orange City is nothing short of heart-melting wonderful. From the moment you step through the door, you’re greeted with genuine smiles—the kind that instantly lighten your mood and make you feel like you’ve just walked into a familiar, welcoming home. The servers move with this effortless blend of warmth and professionalism. They check on you at the perfect moments, refill your coffee before you even realize it’s low, and somehow remember your preferences like you’ve been dining there for years. Every interaction feels personal, thoughtful, and sincere. What truly stands out is how authentically caring the staff is. They don’t just deliver food—they make sure you’re comfortable, happy, and enjoying every part of your visit. Whether it’s a kind word, a quick laugh,

It was an exceptional experience. Our server Samantha went above and beyond to see our every request and question was answered. And we do appreciate the reasonable prices ( along with the 20% off card I got in the mail!)
