Stopped here while my wife was seeing her doc at the Kaiser around the corner from this restaurant. So glad we did! Delicious homestyle food with friendly service. The stuffed French toast and biscuits and gravy are amazing. The restaurant has an old diner feel which I appreciate. I loved the bench swings in the waiting area, reminded me of a dock at waterfront park in Charleston, S.C. that has these swings down to the end. Highly recommend!

This was my 1st time here and the service was absolutely the amazing! The food was so delicious, right down to my glass of Tea. My waitress was so kind and was open to making suggestions to us. The wings were great and the fresh hot waffles were delicious! She made sure we were happy with our dinner choices. I asked for my dessert to go, she wrapped it up tightly for a safe trip home. When I asked for more Tea they even gave me a cup to go! As we left she gave my Son another suggestion for our "next" visit! I wish I would of gotten her name. We are looking forward to our next visit. Thank you for making us feel welcome as if we were "regulars" 😊

The food was good. Tried the alligator sausage. It was pretty good. The atmosphere was ok, sort of reminded us of granny's house. But there was a VERY large party (about 20+ people) half adults and half kids that made the atmosphere extremely loud. It wasn't so much the adults, but the kids (around middle school age) were running around in the restaurant, hollering and playing, unchecked by their accompanying adults. It was so loud I considered going elsewhere. If my child hadn't asked if we could stay, I'm sure I would have. The combination of the unpleasant atmosphere and the waitstaff forgetting my three times ordered water and other ordered items leads me to believe I probably would not go back there again. But I'd say give em a try. The food wasn't bad.

Yes, yes, and yes! You need to come here and just eat. Everything was so good and downright full of flavor. Hearty, good old American food. The restaurant kind of has an old school diner mixed with a cabin vibe. The bakery has some good-looking desserts. Recommend you eat something sweet when you come give this place a try. The menu is huge and you're sure to find something to fill your appetite.

Stopped by on October 1st. My son and I were in the area and were hungry. I'm glad we found this spot. I was craving some real authentic country fried chicken. We were welcomed and seated right away. All employees are attentive and nice. They helped each other out. I wish I could remember my waitress name she did a great job. OMG my mouth watered just remembering how delicious the chicken was. I got the 4 chicken wings that came with 2 eggs and 2 sides. My son tried the full size pastrami fries. The food was delicious I didn't even have a chance to take a picture. We didn't wait too long for our food. They were busy so it's understandable. The prices are the same as any restaurant nowadays. Portions are good. The place is kept clean. Nicely decorated with a country feel. On the bottom of the menu there's Bible verses which I really thought were cool. The parking lot is small. Will definitely return next week when I'm in the area again.

We love Riverside and try to find at least one mom and pop place to stop heading in or out of the area. This time we found Kountry Folls and so glad we did! When I say right off the freeway i mean it. So easy for us to get right back on the road after such a tasty meal. We love a good breakfast in our house and these portions kept us full and happy all the way home. Cute and cozy inside it really gives off that country feel. From the old school bar seating or the swing type benches in the waiting area. Service was awesome and we didn’t have to ask for anything. I’m typically not a fan of hash browns, but they were seasoned well and I ate them all. My daughter ordered what I think was called the farmers breakfast with hash browns and biscuits and gravy on top. She couldn’t finish them all but she tried her best. My son said his chicken friend chicken was some of the best he’s had. The potions were huge. Great stop. Have you been?

When you walk in the atmosphere oddly reminds me of Disneyland. Very clean very welcoming. We were immediately sat in drink borders were taken. The amount of food that these wonderful people bring you is very hard to explain. Very well thought out menu really good food in an absolute killer staff. We will return
