Overpriced Mediocrity – My wife insists we go there every year for her birthday and I grin and bear it... case in point. We brought a party of 10 and sat upstairs on the old rickety chairs... The initial bread and water was good. Half of us ordered the "Boomers Special" because we were hungry. What did we get ??? Two pancakes the size of Silver dollars, a scoop of eggs. potatoes and a size of bacon or fruit. $15 for a kids meal. Nobody was happy. I asked for a slice of fudge cake for dessert with a birthday candle. Seemed si... read more

Expensive inedible food, cold staff, slow service – My most recent experience at FOAF finally convinced me never to return. I once loved the place especially the blueberry pancakes served on the griddle. The location is so so charming. This Tuesday I ordered the blueberry buttermilk pancakes after waiting 30 minutes I was served yellow generic pancakes that were 1/2 inch thick, dry and tasteless. The waiter had vanished. After about 15 minutes he surfaced but did not approach me. I had to call him over to ask him about my pa... read more

Confused service, bland food – I went to FOAF with a group of seven people on a Friday night. We were seated upstairs. It was not very busy. First, the good. The decor was wonderfully down-to-earth and homey. The baskets of produce set the tone and whetted my appetite. However, the service and the food quickly diminished any goodwill the decor had built up. And when it comes down to it, if I just want to sit in a nice place, I'll stay at home. Service: After we were seated, we waited for 20 minutes for someone to take our dr... read more

Great Food, Great Service – We stumbled upon this restaurant while looking for a place for dinner on Friday. We picked it because we were intrigued by the name and like the menu. We were seated upstairs immediately and served by Louis. He was very attentive and charming. I ordered a mojito and it was one of the best I ever had! The menu was mostly comfort food and I had fried chicken. It was very good - most but not greasy - and the sweet potato fries were excellent. The people with me had other chicken dishes and were very ... read more

Do not use for a private party! Overpriced, average food! – The FOAF owner needs to be schooled in how to deal with customers interested in booking a private party. I feel as though I was scammed with the old "bait and switch"-- the manager I was dealing with to book a private dinner for 50 people quoted me a certain amount per person and three options for the guests to choose from, as well as the ability to bring in my own wine for a corkage fee. After expressing my interest in signing a contract, the manager did not produc... read more

Poor service, overpriced – Went at a slow time (late afternoon) and had to ask to have our order taken, our order checked on, and still waited about an hour to be served. Food is overpriced, based on portion size and quality of food. Definitely do not recommend this place.

Never to return! – I've never seen such terrible customer service. I live and work in the neighborhood and have frequented often. However, my lunch today was TERRIBLE. The serivce was AWFUL! It took 20 minutes to take our order and 45 minutes to get the food (we only ordered salads). In the middle of lunch, they began sawing downstairs. When I complained to the owner she denied that they were sawing and said they just started. Absurd! This regular customer will not return!
