All you can eat fish fry nights are the best! Service is fast and always make sure you’re happy.

Fast Eddies is the type of place you go to when you’re not in a hurry. It’s clean, well lit and the service is excellent. We’ve had several different wait staff and they are all proficient. Dana seems like the most proficient as she remembers our drink orders from week to week and we see refills magically appear. I’ve never been to Fast Eddies for breakfast. My friends have and I hear only good things.
I have a severe peppercorn allergy and they do a super job of accommodating me. The food portions are huge, the prices are fair and I never feel as though we are being rushed. We have a group of 9 on average one night a week (Friday’s-the only night that they are open late [fish fry night]) and they always quick to set up our table and take our orders.
Will return each week for the food, cleanliness and the friendly service.

The service was great waitress was friendly and did a great job. The burger was good fries were just decent not much flavor. For the price I enjoyed my meal. I loved all the decorations some of them made me laugh. If you’re looking for a cheap place to eat that’s decent I would recommend it

Went here for a quick breakfast last weekend and was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of the place and the fun décor. The service was good and our order came within a reasonable amount of time. The quality of food was good and the taste was what I expected it to be. Overall a good experience and average. I would return to this restaurant.

The food is okay. I have been there 5 or 6 times. Have never had the same server twice. I have heard that the owner or manager, the old bald headed guy is an asshole and hard to work for.
I found that out for sure. I was in with a group of 5 friends for breakfast. I guess we stayed too long, about 2 hours. After paying our bill and leaving a generous tip, we were asked to leave by baldy. Will certainly never return and will bad mouth this place for sure.

This is really, really hard as we like to patronize non-​corporate non-​chain business’s
but this place was horrible. I am not talking about the 40 min. we had to wait for our food, Hey it was new years day and a bit busy… no problem No I am speaking about the food. We ordered 2 burgers and what we got was small portions that were cold, dry & tasteless even the coffee was cold Our server was OK… we never really saw him
It is hard to put it into words… The place just didn’t feel right

A bit slow. Food ok, hash browns were a bit greasy, but was able to make the over medium eggs. Hard to get coffee refill, once the waitress serves you, she is gone.

we really like coming here on the weekends for breakfast, however it’s like the Soup Nazi… NO SUBSITUTIONS! You can’t swap potatoes for grits without paying extra nor can you substitute potatoes for bacon.

Been a customer here since they opened this location. Not a great place but its super close to our house so its an easy place to go for us. Just went this Friday for the ALL YOU CAN EAT fish. Only put in one refill order as it took about 20mins to get the refill. When it finally came my child was ready to go and as most parents know, when the child is ready then your meal is done. So the refill order came with 4 pieces of fish and we were able to eat 2 of the 4 but then had to go. When I asked for the check the waitress added 99 cents and when I asked why she said cause I didnt eat the entire refill I ordered. REALLY???
Since we had been such long time customers we got to know many of the waitresses and we were told how horrible the owner was to work for and how bad he treated them. And now the waitress told us this was his decision to charge if you didnt eat all your food. I hope that 99 cents was worth it because my family will NEVER come back to this place so that 99 cents will cost you at least 4 meals a month at $ 30 or more each time.
BAD BUSINESS!!!

Portions were small. Plus, they have a picture of pancakes with pecans and bananas. Looked delicious. Alternating layers of pancakes, nuts and fruit. Yummy. I ordered it and it looked like 3 plain pancakes. I asked where the toppings were and the server said inside the pancakes. They charge you an extra $ 1 per topping and I could barely taste them. Only in the very middle of the pancake. Quite a disappointment and nothing like the picture. We had a $ 20 groupon– food for 2 of us came to $ 15. I asked if they could throw on a dessert to make up the difference and I was told they don’t have desserts. My son suggested bacon. Ok, can you throw in $ 5 worth of bacon? She says I can throw in $ 4. Fine whatever. She brings me the bacon in a to-​go container (since all our dishes were cleared already). No problem, he just ate it out of the container. Imagine our surprise when we got the bill and even though we only bought $ 19 worth of food for a $ 20 groupon– we were also charged a «to-​go fee». Honestly. for $ 20 you get twice the food at IHOP or Denny’s. I didn’t even have a side with my pancakes.

Good diner food, too bad they don’t carry real sweet and low. Also their old thick sliced white bread has been removed. It was better before they made these cost saving changes.

Good food, nice waitress, and CHEAP — meal would cost twice as much in California. Next time we’re in Phoenix we’ll be here.

Excellent prices, great food and super friendly service. Yay, its my new breakfast spot!
The walls are full of 50’s style signage, with some funny sarcasm thrown in along the way. Unfortunately, I wasn’t around to enjoy the 50’s the first time, so its fun to go to places that try to re-​create that ‘long since forgotten by most’ atmosphere.
They have early bird specials until 7:30 am, so if you go, try to get there early. You wont regret it.
PS. They have 2 locations and are only open evenings on Fridays.

Took over 40 minutes to get my omelet and another 8 minutes to get the wheat toast it came with. Hmmmmmm

We go to Fast Eddie’s occasionally for breakfast. They have the best biscuits ever! They’re huge and SO good. The food is always cooked to order (I always ask for my bacon crispy and it’s always perfect), the portions are huge, and the service is prompt. It’s your typical average breakfast joint. The only thing they really need to do better is their hashbrowns. They are always undercooked every time I have them. If I ordered nothing but bacon and biscuits every time this place would be 5 stars all the way around.

They definitely live up to their name. Fast and simple food at an affordable price.
Food is nothing special, simple but cooked right with decent quality product.
I was debating btw 3 or 4 stars but I love the service there. They have a great team environment where the waitresses run out eachother’s food right away so you get it nice and hot and they never pass an empty drink even if its not their table.
This place definitely stays on the weekend breakfast short list.

Meh, This reminds me of the place my Granddad had breakfast at with his friends back in Nebraska. It’s not very good. However the people there don’t go there for the food. They go there to meet their friends, and they go there because they don’t know any better. Bland food, so so service, Don is a GROUCH and the place is only half clean.
This is the perfect place to go if you are 60+ and just want to talk to people your age.
I won’t be back and that won’t affect or effect the bottom line of this place Don is happy with the retiree crowd and they are happy with the same no frills no surprise bland food they’ve had for 40 years!!!

This is my second visit here and i am happy to say it was way better than after they just opened.
2 egg breakfast with bacon and hash browns were perfect. Service was excellent and had some sympathy for those of us who were nursing hangovers.

One of the best breakfast I have had in a long time.
Meat scramble… get it and eat it!
The service was good, she told some stories and laughed with us.
The B&G is a freaking monster plate, be warned.
Daily specials are priced right too! Skip the fancy places and come here!
