I went into this Waffle House #1247 @ around 8:15AM 05/20/2014, and what a disappointment it was.

First the Coffee had a funny taste to it, the waitress gave me another cup of the same funny tasting coffee, but took it off my bill, so I ask for water, tasted good.

My waffle came late as the cook was not a cook and then waitress had to remind the cook to fix my waffle.

And when I got the waffle it was not fully cooked in the center, they should fire this cook. The waitress asked me if I wanted her to cook my waffle but I said not, but still paid for it. My total bill for this unfortunate experience was $7.65.

The will never get me twice, as I plan on never going to this waffle house AGAIN.
