Waffle House

I visited the Waffle House in Smyrna, DE with my wife for a breakfast date a couple of weeks ago. The customer service was genuinely good—the staff was professional, friendly, and attentive throughout our visit. Their hospitality was one of the stronger points of the experience. However, the temperature inside the restaurant was extremely cold, to the point of being uncomfortable. It made it difficult to relax and enjoy the meal. The first waffle that arrived at our table was noticeably undercooked, with a doughy texture that suggested the batter hadn’t fully cooked through. The portion size was also surprisingly small, which was unexpected for a place that brands itself as the “Waffle House.” To their credit, the staff promptly prepared a fresh batch, and the replacement waffle was cook

On August 28th, 2025 at 10:15 pm my boyfriend and I arrived to get some quick food before going home. Little did we know that was not the case. As soon as we sat down the guy working came over and immediately asked us if we were ready, not even giving us a chance to look at the menu. We politely said no and he walked away. He shortly came back asking us what we wanted to drink, I asked for tomato juice and the guy said “do we even have that” and I said “yes you do” and then my boyfriend orders sweet tea. The guy then proceeded to open the fridge stating “why do we even have this” “who even drinks this” he then proceeds to try and hand me the very small can of tomato juice . So I tell him that I need two cans with a cup. He gets that for me and then goes to help other tables. At this point

We stopped here on our way to a doctor appointment. Mehrad was our server and was excellent! This place was sooo much better than the camden location that was dirty and made my husband sick. This location was spotless, the people ALL greeted us when we came in and made us feel welcome c to be there instead of a nuisance. I would gladly drive an hour for this type of service. We'll done staff! The other locations could learn a lot from you.

Honestly if I could give it no star at all I would. Let’s start with its super small, dirty and overcrowded. My partner and I stopped by for a quick breakfast, we were sadly disappointed by the service and the food. Our bacon was crispy and black waffles came out after my sides. My cup was filthy dirty to the point I had to let them know I would rather a to go cup because it’s no way my cup should be so dirty. The waiter wasn’t attentive at all, the manger acted as if I was bothering him asking for a different cup. The manger was couching not covering his mouth then back to writing on a notepad. One waiter bit her nail spit it out then took the man order. I thought I was on a Tubi movie because it was literally too much going on to process. Maybe I pay too much attention but it’s a never a

I stopped in for a quick bite before getting my oil changed close by. I had just about an hour and my first thought was that I was probably going to be late getting back to the shop. However, the service and server was on point. Minutes upon sitting down, the server brought me coffee, took my order and just a few minutes later my food was in front of me piping hot 🔥. I'm not a huge Waffle House fan, but I would definitely recommend this particular one. Food came out exactly as ordered and hot.
