The Scene – It's big and casual, usually filled with big families, seniors and kids from across-the-street Hillcrest High. On the weekend mornings, expect to wait a few minutes for a table. – – The Food – Surprisingly, you'll want to stay away from the namesake Belgian waffles--they come loaded with whipped cream, ice cream or processed fruit. Instead, go for the garbage hash (cheese-covered potatoes with ham, bacon, onions, peppers and mushrooms) or one of the gargantuan omelettes (they come out looking like a pancake, served flat and smothered with cheese). Don't…

SCARY
by lonniepark
Ok OK so bad news bears! yes, Belgain has a mean breakfast however I was recently having dinner when i noticed BLACK GREASE finger prints on my dishes i made the waitress aware i saw her tell her manager and her manager did nothing they seemed to be arguing that the cook did NOT wash his hands after working on an ice machine (SCARY). the young girl(my witress) seemed very distressed that manager did not do anything about the situation . My waitress offered to pay for my food but as it was not her fault I declined the offer. I must say they have some of the greatest waitresses around but the cook not washing his hands the manager not standing behing her waitress and the terrible condition of the dining room containing mass amounts of flies will ensure that I will not be back to this establishment. I do not even want to know what the condition of the kitchen is now it was not great 5 years ago.
- Pros: good breakfast
- Cons: kitchen manager/head chef/fix it guy doesn't wash his hands

Won't be back
by deelite99
Two weeks ago I went to the Belgian Waffle in Midvale. It didn't surprise me when they sat me in one of their rooms off their main dining room as I was a single and most restaurants don't like singles, we take up space where a family could... sit. While I was sitting waiting for the host to bring me a cup of coffee, I noticed that my hand was sticking to the table. I made the host aware of this and he apologized and brought a damp cloth and attempted to clean the table. I could see that he didn't understand the nature of the film that covered the table and decided to wait for my server. When she came in I voiced my concerns to her and she brought back a clone of the damp cloth that the host had used and attempted to clean the dirty film. I explained to her that I was a commercial cabinetmaker for many years and that a damp cloth was not going to cut it. She just kept rubbing harder and harder until I thought she was going to have a heart attack. I should have left then but I was famished. I was reminded of Jack Nicholson in the movie " As Good as it Gets" when he was asked why he used plastic utensils and he replied it was a judgment call, that he had seen the help. I feel the same way about the Belgian Waffle and won't be eating there again.
- Pros: better than lenny's
- Cons: filthy and the help doesn't know how to clean it

GOOD FOOD
by alventas
The food is very good and the portions are huge the only problem is the Graveyard lady. If you go in at night expect to wait at least a half hour for your food because the waitress is always in her car smoking something... The dining room is very drab and old and in desperate need of renovation but all and all they serve a mean breakfast!
- Pros: The Food IS YUMMY
- Cons: Night LADY Is NUTS
