Dimitri's Restaurant

My first impression was not a good one. I got out of my car and the smell was horrible.  I look down and I am walking in running water that is pretty much a grease pit flowing from the restaurant. Just from an environmental standpoint, I should have got back in my car and left, however I was meeting a friend. Thankful the smell was not so bad inside, but I think my nose was coated in the funk and I couldn't get past it. The service was not so good and the food was something you would expect from a Denny's but overpriced.  I will not return.

I've been to dimtri's several times. In the past as lastnight we were greeted immediately and seated with menus. It seemed our server was not the least bit familiar with protocol. Several minutes passed before we were offered drinks. The salad I ordered with my meal came with the drinks and no bread. The bread toasts did arrive with the lasagne and 15 minutes later a small round loaf freshly baked and delicious but by then I was about finished eating. I was offered dessert at the time which she claimed are prepared daily there. I could certainly be wrong but they certainly looked like the desserts I see @ the East St Kroger bakery.
I have usually enjoyed the ample portions,  the meals have always been quite good; seasoned well, and quality as far as temp.. The selections are vast so not to leave any pallet with no variety.
I suggest Dimitri make sure his servers are aware when to affer and serve when and with what.....

Went in for a Saturday late morning breakfast. I have been in 2 times before and was still on the fence. The pros... beautiful decor and clean. they leave a coffee pot on each table when you order coffee. The service was very friendly and attentive without being intrusive. The owner "Dimitri" has been their every time I have been in, overseeing the operation. Now the cons... bacon was low quality thin and over cooked each visit. The omelet was made in "football" shape not folded and used very lil cheese and filling with canned mushrooms. A bit stiff on price for the quality of food. If third times the charm im not sure i will be going back a forth.
