So I was feeling a little lazy and decided to order take out from West Town Restaurant. They promptly answered my call and were super helpful when ordering. I ordered Spaghetti and Baked Ziti with chicken. I arrived 20 mins and the order was already for me. They had lots of parking. Inviting music greeted me as I walked in. I was greeted by the most nice people. I was very impressed and the Restaurant was very nice inside, plus they have great prices. We were eager to dive into our dinner when I got home. Wow! Everything was great. The salad was so fresh tasting. I loved the spaghetti with meat sauce. I could tell it was definitely homemade meat sauce. I definitely recommend West Town Restaurant. Now I want to check out their breakfast menu, if I can get myself up early enough. lol. Oh I forgot to mention I am an Army Veteran and the do give a Military discount to say Thank You for your service to our Country. Thank you all so so very much.

Ate lunch here today and was genuinely impressed. The food was well-prepared and flavorful, and everything came out quickly without feeling rushed. The service really stood out—fast, friendly, and attentive from start to finish. Overall, it was a very smooth and enjoyable experience, and it’s a great spot if you’re looking for good food paired with efficient, welcoming service. I’d definitely come back again.

Today we went for Sunday brunch and everything was really good. Love a new place for breakfast and great service. My original review in 2022... This place is awesome! They have an awesome menu and my kids love eating here. My favorite is the Chicken pot pie, the good kind made with vegetables. Food is always good at an excellent price. Kenleigh is our favorite server.

I went to the restaurant at 12ish on saturday. It wasn’t that crowded there much. First of all, I really like people who are working there! They were very nice and delightful, and having hospitality. Second, Foods were all tasted good and they were reasonably priced. Especially, alfredo pasta was very good! And I highly recommend to try Espresso. It’s great without sugar or milk! I really enjoyed having lunch at Westtown Restaurant!! I gotta go there again when i’m back there.

I have been here a few times and so far have enjoyed every meal I have ordered. This is like a family old school Diner. They have breakfast, lunch, & dinner available, so there is something for everyone. There is plenty of seating, both tables and booths. There is also a private back room available to reserve/rent for private events. The owner always comes out from the kitchen to say hello and check on customers. His entire staff is very friendly and attentive. Our coffee & drinks are always kept filled. My only complaint previously was that they were not open on Sundays! Well, I can no longer complain. We now have a place for brunch after church and with great reasonable affordable prices that will keep you coming back. You can enjoy a great meal with drink for under $12! Today I went with the Fiesta Omelette with cheddar cheese, tomatoes, Turkey, bell peppers and Serrano peppers for a kick. I held back on the onions since I hate cooked onions. It comes with a side choice so I got a fruit cup with pineapple, strawberries & grapes…..refreshing! The omelette was not too heavy, it was the perfect amount of each ingredient so you could savor every bite. My wife got the Gallo Pinto, which is a traditional Costa Rican Breakfast. It has two eggs cooked to your liking with mixed rice & beans and plantains. This reminded her of breakfast in her country of El Salvador. She loved it and said it reminded her of her mother’s cooking. My daughter wanted something different and ordered the Fried Chicken, egg & cheese biscuit sandwich. It was huge and messy but so worth it…..her words, not mine. I did however witness her use a lot of napkins….lol. Overall a fabulous brunch, great coffee and lots of options for next time. They have awesome specials all week, especially during lunch. Stop by and give them a try, you won’t be disappointed.
