Belgian Waffle & Omelet Inn

Stopped here after the Diaz McGregor fight. We were cruising the area pretty late and there weren’t many places open at the time, so we were excited to find a non fast food/Denny’s option. Service was excellent and our meals came very quickly after ordering. Fried chicken was super crunchy and tasty and the Belgian waffle was a treat!

Shauna, our waitress, was great. She was highly recommended from our referral source. An entertaining and real nice gal. Love that it’s open late; we had to find a place after Classic Fun Center. Parking was easy, no frills kind of place.
No complaints here. We were seated quickly, food was timely, staff was nice, food was good, glasses always filled, prices were reasonable, and of course, the food was yum! Table favorites were the French toast, garbage hash, and I liked my corned beef. And, upon walking out, we spotted the pie list. Homemade coconut cream pie – amazingness in your mouth!

I’ve lived in salt lake for a few years and pass this place all the time. Always thought… i wanna try it out… read the Unilocal reviews. Thought I’d still give it a try… big mistake. The staff was prompt enough with our order. However… i came for the waffle… also a big mistake. I order a Belgian waffle, with blueberries, chocolate fudge, nuts and ice cream… i also order a side of fries. Fries make a appearance 15 mins before everything else. The are drenched in grease. They are cold and flavorless and gross. I start to grow concerned about Whats to come. My husband who ordered the chicken and waffles…1 small waffle with butter…3…chicken strips!!! They were the same chicken tenders they serve in a high school cafeteria… very disappointed. My meal was so bad, i could only manage to get down half of it before i threw in the towel. Small waffle… gelatinous pile of cold blueberry compote, cold «hot» fudge, sundae peanuts, and vanilla ice cream. Nothing i ate was hot, or even warm. i had such high hopes for this place… so Disappointed. Our waitress ran around like a chicken with her head cut off, while other employees sat on their cell phones in the dinning room. Not friendly, but atleast efficient. Like i said total disappointment. I gave 1 star for the fry sauce. The best thing i ate this evening…

OMG, what a dump. THE worst food we’ve ever eaten. Trashy place, unprofessional staff. If you like to eat piles of «stuff» with no flavor, with patrons decked out in tatoos and nose rings, this is your place.
I would give it a MINUS 5, if possible.

I would probably give this zero stars if it was possible. This place is so run down, and the staff is unprofessional.
I asked the server what came on the club sandwich. She named everything, and yet when it came out it was missing half the ingredients. And those that weren’t forgotten were terrible quality. The turkey was flavorless and gray. The «mixed fruit» that came on the side consisted of peeled orange slices, some type of melon that was brown, and one grape. The Belgian waffles they’re so «famous» for were not nearly enough to fill one person, and cost $ 8 – 9.
Overall a very poor experience.

Three and a half would be more fair.
It’s a greasy spoon, ok? They fill a valid niche in the foodie landscape.
I was there with a large group. We had the banquet room, which is long and narrow. We filled most of it.
Our waitress was really nice and helpful and a human being.
Most of the reviews are about the garbage hash. So that’s what i had.
I’m from utah county, so my obvious comparison is Callie’s. I like Callie’s.
People like to say that the garbage hash here is huge. It’s not huge. It’s, big. It’s about half an order of killer hash browns from callie’s.
And that’s good, really. I mean, I’m a big guy, and the full killer is sort of stupid even for me.
Where callie’s killer is smothered in white gravy, the garbage hash here is smothered in cheese. I was tempted to ask if i could get gravy on it as well. That might be awesome.
I stopped ordering the killer at callie’s when what i got, twice in a row, was more microwaved than cooked on a flat top. The whole appeal of hash browns is the browning, right? The word brown is right in the name. So why did i get a pile of essentially steamed shredded potatoes with stuff mixed in?
The garbage hash here is slices of what appear to be baked potato that have then been further cooked on a flat top. I fully approve. This was very good.
You get less meat in the garbage hash than you would in a half killer at callie’s. But i still feel like it was a good balance of meat to tater. Maybe i was just missing the breakfast link sausage.
I guess the main thing is that if i find myself in that neighborhood again, or someone suggests meeting there, i wouldn’t turn it down.
The waffles looked good. I’ll try a waffle next time.

Meh. I’m not entirely sure how I ended up eating here – I think it was due to being with a big group and it was late and we were hungry. Service was good, they didn’t seem to mind that about 15 of us came in at 11 p.m. but the food wasn’t anything special.

I got an omelette with a waffle on the side. First of all it took forever to get our food. The portions were huge, but my eggs and omelette were soggy and the waffle wasn’t anything special.
For a place that has omelette and waffle in the name I expected it to be a little better.
Wasn’t my favorite breakfast place ever.

This place doesn’t pretend to be more than what it is. It’s a bit dirty, run down and and flies are just a given but I paid $ 36 for a lot of food that wasn’t too bad… So there’s that.

Food is good. Ordered the Garbage Hash. The opinions were still raw. My husband ordered the same but requested his potatoes well done. They were not done this way. My boys had French toast and waffles. They said they we’re good. Flies were all over the place.

This use to be the best restaurant to eat. We enjoyed coming for breakfast because the service and food was great.
I don’t know what changed… the service was ok but the restaurant itself didn’t feel clean and the food wasn’t as good as when we first ate there.

Disappointed. The service was horrible. In fact a guy we were with commented that you come here for the food, not the service. We were seated right away but our water and coffee came in shifts. And when we got coffee, we didn’t have spoons to stir with. We only got silverware WHEN our food came. And speaking of when our food came, what a frustrating nightmare. We got our two orders of eggs benedict, the sauce was cold, not kinda warm but actually cold. The other four meals never came and never came. We finally flagged down another server and told her to check on our food. She came back and said she told our server to check on it. Our server finally came out and explained that someone else had taken our food so they were making the meals and they should be out shortly. We went ahead and ate our eggs benedict and by the time we were finished, the other four meals finally came. The final four meals were waffles. At least they were hot. Never refilled our sodas or water. Coffee was refilled but we ran out of sugar.
When I told our server that we were not ok with how our meals and service was, he was understanding. When he came with the check, he said the manager authorized 20% off our check. We were ok with that but honestly, we probably won’t go back. We did tip our server fairly and didn’t blame him for everything. Although he should’ve checked on us and the problem could have been resolved quicker and better.
If you have other options, don’t eat here. The place needs a deep cleaning and the bathrooms are horrible. One of the women in our group said that gas station restrooms are cleaner than the restrooms at Belgian Waffle.
Oh and I just need to add that the hostess was wearing a grungy tank top and short, shorts. Kinda scuzzy feeling.

Its been years since coming here, and it wasn’t that good the. Hubby loves the garbage hash. It’s not as good as it was back then, either. A lot of grease, except for the clam chowder. That was actually good! Lol

This spot is a quaint little diner. We were seated fairly quickly at a booth that was decently sized. The coffee was alright that was served. I went with the garbage hash with no peppers. The hash was not too bad. The onions were not cooked but it did bring on a crunchy aspect to the dish. Not sure if that was done on purpose. The hash was decent and the bacon ham and cheese that topped it was done quite well. I would recommend ordering the half portion of you’re not too hungry.

Yes! I was finally able to find my first «greasy spoon» in Utah. Much like dive bars, this is an obligatory category for me to find in a given geography. If this does not sound like much of a shocking revelation to those who know food in the Salt Lake area, bear in mind I have not even been in town a week yet.
Much like every other restaurant I have discovered since coming here, I found this place completely at random during one of my drive around, get lost, and discover the lay of the land missions. The décor and tables of this place are about like any other establishment of it’s ilk; old school, rustic, and well worn, which is part of it’s charm. Our server, an older gentleman in shorts and with a coffee pot permanently fixed to his hand, was very welcoming and fun and he immediately dubbed us a «not from around here» type.
Based upon his recommendation I decided to go with the Garbage Hash as my entrée (pictured). This consisted of large plateful of ham, potatoes, peppers, onions, a solid 2 cups of cheese and two eggs. Brushing aside the fact that I probably reduced my human lifespan by about a 6 months by eating this cholesterol laden masterpiece, it was sinfully delicious. Our server stopped by after taking away our dinner plates to showcase a huge cinnamon roll the size of a basketball that he had just taken out of the oven as a possible dessert, but that was simply impossible. If you leave this place hungry then perhaps you should give some serious consideration to entering the Nathan’s Hot Dog eating competition up in Coney Island this summer.
Even though we stopped in at around 7 PM, this place is open 24 hours. I can imagine it is a big hit with the Saturday 3 AM drunk munchies, and Sunday AM hangover crowd.
Despite what you might think by reading this, I actually have a fairly sophisticated palate when it comes to cuisine This is the type of dive that every food lover needs in their arsenal. This place is the dating equivalent of that girl that goes to the bar with you and drinks you under the table, and then proceeds to take you home and do awful, awful, wonderful things to you. Not something to be proud of, but a guilty pleasure nonetheless.

This place is quite awful.
My Denver omelet was incredibly salty, buried in layers of cheese, completely missing the peppers and onions, and the little chunks of what I suppose was ham, was crunchy and tasted freezer burnt. Their «homemade» blueberry muffins were burnt up top and I had to pull half of the muffin apart. The Orange juice was the only thing I was confident in consuming.
Service was not as terrible as the food. She was doing the best she could with a busy shift. Overall, very sub par and disappointing.

I wish 3.5 stars was possible because I do think this joint is worth visiting. We had lovely prompt service by a a tall slender gal with a short brunette pixie cut. She has the perfect disposition to serve someone that just rolled out of bed, has a residual hangover from 2 nights ago and requires Unisom and Xanax to get a full nights sleep such as myself.
And it was pretty dang fast considering everybody bitched and moaned that the service here is slow.
I had a waffle and my husband at the kitchen sink hash. He really liked it and my bacon and waffle was yummy. I think if you’re looking for breakfast food that’s better then Denny’s but the same price range then this is a great place to check out.
They lost a star for the dreadfully dirty bathroom. But the rest of the place was clean and tidy!

Ok food, ok service. Nothing that really caught my attention except the hamburgers on the kids meals! Those were yummy!
Another reason why I wanted to stop by and try is was to check out their menu for a late snack. Looks like their full menu is available 24÷7… awesome!

Can’t figure out why we never made it here till last night! Mr H. and I met when we worked at a similar 24-​hour diner in Colorado. Night owls like us need a place like this, with a comfort food menu. Our food (Garbage Hash and Pot Roast Dinner) arrived promptly and hot, our table wasn’t sticky, and the 3 employees we had contact with were all pleasant.

The food is not so great, but when it’s 2 am and nothing else is open on a Thursday night in the area, it will do.
Food: The Belgium waffle was slightly soggy. The bacon tasted stale. The whipped butter and warm syrup made it bearable. I also had a few bites of one of the omelets and it was disgusting. It had way much cheese.
Service: Guy with the beard who works as a host made too many sexual jokes, and made any excuse to come talk to me and my girl friends.
HOWEVER, Shannon, our waitress was super nice and is used to dealing with drunk people on the regular. I tipped her extra for being super super patient, sweet, and funny ! I don’t post reviews on here often, but I told her I’ll recommend her to people on Unilocal.She was on point with checking up on us. Service from Shannon was an A+
