Perkins Restaurant & Bakery PERMANENTLY CLOSED

I'm disappointed with the teenage staff too. The food is good but we always receive miserable service and attitude from the teenage girls who sit us. They make our experience far less enjoyable. They obviously do not enjoy being there.

My wife and I eat here often for lunch. The food is always consistently good, but the service tends to fluctuate. Our lunch is great when we get a good server, other times it's very disappointing due to bad service. I also like to be seated by a smiling and welcoming person, however we nearly always seem to be seated by this young gum chewing girl wreaking with attitude.

The food prep is uneven. Sometimes good sometimes not and you have to send it back. Inconsistent service and food prep is NOT a sign of a good restaurant. Also the bathrooms and carpets and filthy and need a heavy duty cleaning.!
The woman manager seems to resent her staff and goes out of her way to berate them. Perhaps she's the problem?

The teenage girl who seated us popped her gum in our faces which appauled me. She was also very "mooody". The food was very good though and they have a good broad selection of items on the menu. For the food, I rated this 4/5, for the girl who seated us... that was very unprofessional and not the attitude for someone in your position.

I went to Perkins this very morning 10-5-02. Tina was our server and I have to say, I WAS IMPRESSED! Hats off to the new management, you have done a fabulous job.

The Manager was polite to everyone. There wasn't one table that needed to be cleaned off, it was all done. Hubby never EVER had to wait for a refill on his drink. I drink coffee and one of the things I like best about Perkins is they leave the the coffee on the table.

Again, Congratulations on getting your act together.

I have tried Perkins in the past and was not pleased. But after reading the reviews and how it's improved I will try it again. This site should be commended for there community service.

Like the others have said on here, Perkins has improved greatly. My first visits a couple of years ago were not good experiences, but I tried it again recently and was pleasantly suprised. For a family diner style restaurant the menu is diverse and we had good service. I hope it maintains this quality this time.

When we first moved here a couple of years ago we had breakfast here and it was a terrible experience. We later visited a few months ago and have been regulars since. It was far better and we enjoy their breakfasts and lunches. Good value and pleasant service.

We visit every Sunday after church. There is often a wait but the line goes down fast. They offer the best breakfast in palm Coast and have a great selection. Try their salads for lunch.

I wish everyone who has given Perkins a bad review in the past, would give them another chance. I did and I'm so glad I did! The improvement is amazing! They have new management and a new head cook, and they really care about food presentation and taste. Also, very good service. The whole staff is to be commended.

Ate here for lunch today and like previous posts, I too realized a big difference from visits a year or more ago. I had a Cajun Grilled Chicken Bread Bowl Salad that was plentiful and fresh. Nice to be able to eat the bowl after too! There was a busy lunch crowd but the server and kitchen seemed to keep up well.

Perkins beats Denny's hands up. Good menu selection, service a little slow when mega busy but food always consistant and fresh. Denny's has gone waaaaayyyy down lately! For breakfast hit Perkins.

Wait staff has large turnover, poor service, no one cares. Food is poor. Palm Coast deserves better.

Perkins has definitly improved. I had given up on Perkins after so many bad meals and poor service but my last few visits have been very good. Menu selection is good and makes a nice change over Denny's.

Definitely getting better. My last visit was the first in over a year and I noticed a big difference with the food quality and the service.

Perkins has got a lot better. Their menu is quite broad with a nice range of lunch items. Service was good and server friendly and the food was fresh and better than expected. I hope they sustain the quality this time.

I must say I've visited Perkins a few times. Along time ago the service was horrible and the food was even worse. Recently i've gone to Perkins a few times and must say that the new managers have changed things alot. Its much more pleasant to eat there and they seem to be turning that place around. Keep it up.

I have visited other Perkins in the state of Florida, but I've never been to one like the Perkins in Palm Coast. The food itself is nothing spectacular and the service is less than ideal here. They are way too understaffed to stay open. The managers need to get off their high horse and help the servers out when things get busy. When I visited, there were two servers on the floor and a dining room full of guests. While the servers were running around the floor trying to please their customers, the two managers were simply sitting at a table of their own, laughing and doing nothing to help their employees. And when I questioned the General Manager, Carolyn Vician, she was extremely rude and had such an attitude, like I didn't have a right to complain when their business was being run like that. No wonder this place has such a bad rap in town. I would not suggest this restaurant to anyone.

One word for this place - terrible. Close it down and replace it with a Chill's or Longhorn Steak House.

A truly awful dining experience. Service was almost nonexistent, food VERY disappointing, management were miserable, items unavailable, an overall extremely unpleasant experience.
