Susie K’s - Opelika

Great breakfast! Restaurant was clean and service was great. Our server, I think her name was Amanda was fantastic! A bit hard to find but worth it!

My wife and I were passing through AL and found this spot on Yelp. When we walked in, we were greeted with a smile. I lucked up and arrived during the end of breakfast and the beginning of lunch. I ordered eggs and potatoes from the breakfast menu and a pork chop from the lunch menu. That's not normally allowed I'm told but, she hooked me up! That pork chop was phenomenal. It was tender, seasoned well, and fried to perfection. Next time we're passing through Opelika, we'll definitely be visiting Susie K's! Hopefully they add the pork chop to the breakfast menu as well by then.

Staffing issues which was not a problem at first because we know how it is in todays world. Finally got seated at a dirty table. Ordered our food.. were told they our out of biscuits. Not a problem we understand they’re busy. We ordered different food. The poor waitress had to come back to tell one of our party members that the new manager was not allowing people to order the full brunch menu (for example he ordered a hamburger which is on the brunch menu). I hope this was just a bad day and we will try again during the week! We’ve heard great things about this place and want to love it!Edit to add after our food got here.Out of grits so they brought us “home fries” which were French fires cut up… we are confused because the party member who ordered a cheeseburger and French fries was told the manager wasn’t allowing that to be made. Two of us ordered the salmon patty meal which on the menu came with grits, biscuit with tomato gravy, 2eggs, and a pancake. When it arrived they must’ve ran out of grits so they gave us French fries, didn’t bring the gravy because they were out of biscuits so they assumed we didn’t want the gravy. And the pancake lord… I have never seen a pancake so tough that I couldn’t cut with just the side of my fork… and they didn’t account for the price change on our meals because they were out of food

I was hoping to find a new lil hole in the wall here. You know those are usually the best. ?Pros: Very prompt, friendly staff. Very clean and inviting atmosphere. Parking can be an issue.Cons: They ran out of Mac 'n cheese, when they did bring it, it was like they forgot to stir it and I got a mouth full of salt. Stirred it, tried again. SO salty I couldn 't eat it...(and I LOVE salt) the hamburger steak was just ok, the gravy tasted canned instead of homemade. The mashed potatoes were too salty also. I gave up after trying. Sadly, will not be back.

The food was amazing. The fried chicken was fried just right and it wasn't greasy. The prices of the food is also very reasonable. I plan on going back this weekend for brunch.
