We’ve always passed by this restaurant on our way to Sam’s club, finally decided to try and have breakfast. We were not disappointed! We came on a weekday so there’s not a lot of people, service was fast. The servings are really generous, you can see in the picture how thick the scrambled eggs are! Aside from generous servings, it is not too expensive and the food’s delicious!

I ordered a club salad. It is incorrectly named. It should be called “Sam’s Club” salad. The salad is huge with a ton of every ingredient. Excellent service. Friendly environment. Pepsi products served!! Love Pepsi.

Huge portions and broad variety of offerings. I really enjoyed the corned beef hash skillet. I forgot to ask for extra crispy hash browns- and still really enjoyed it. Our service was excellent. Server was very chipper and a joy to interact with. The atmosphere was a bit sterile for me. It seems like a newer building and just hasn’t fully settled into its personality yet. Will definitely be back.

I like good food, cleanliness and great service! Ozzie’s provides all of this. This is the type of place you go into and see the owner serving and making sure everyone is good. He cooks, cleans and even makes sure the outside is up to standards. This place superseded my expectations in every way. Lauren, thanks for being an excellent server! Jimmie, keep up the great work! Oh yes, and even the seats are clean here! Oh yeah! That’s important too!

A place to eat a great breakfast or lunch while feeling like you are part of the family! We love Ozzie's and probably go almost every weekend. The staff are amazing, and you just feel comfortable when you are there. Jimmy and his wife Dashka are down to earth sweet and caring people. They go above and beyond to make sure you enjoy yourself, and your meal is how you want it.

My first time here & really enjoyed it. The food is excellent (Gypsy skillet w/pancakes) with large portions. I know others have commented on price; however I feel as I received an ample amount of food for the price. With that, I believe food is priced appropriately. Our server Megan was pleasant & did a fantastic job. Definitely recommend dinning here.

BLUF: Good breakfast restaurant, with large portions, don’t judge a book by its cover. -The outside looks a little run down, but it nice and clean inside. -Coffee tastes good and they have flavored creamer. -I really like the Ozzie hot sauce! -bathrooms are clean, but not fancy. -huge portions! -waitress and hostess were nice and gave good service. -saw a couple big parties. We will be back!

A bit pricey but worth it. My daughter had the oreo pancakes that were literally the size of a cake. My wife had the Mexican breakfast and I had a meatlovers skillet. I was really impressed there was very little grease in our food and well cooked. 3 of us w tip was about 70 dollas but well worth it.
