The Waffle Spot

"The waffle spot is located in King Inn in San near Diego's hotel circle. The establishment has a light 50s motif. Colorful cartoonish pictures on the wall. Brightly lit and very open. The menu has many waffle choices that are infused with other connections, or you can order a plain waffle. The waffle is around 6-7 inches in diameter and made well. The food portions are plentiful and served hot. Price point is at market $$."

"So enjoyable on a Monday morning, practically all to ourselves. We have been many times over the years and the food rarely dissapoints. I always enjoy the bacon there. It's baked and smoky taste is a must no matter which breakfast I choose. Obviously known for the waffles, but the bacon... The decor is a little 60"s with music playing from the 80's. Colorful drawings by children of the restaurant mascot, King Waffle, line the ceiling edges around the restaurant. It's generally a longish wait on weekends, so hit them up on a week day for a relaxing meal. Hours are short. 7 to 1pm. Takeout not until 730am. Plenty of parking generally. Menu just one single sheet, not to confuse you like an Ihop. If you have kids, they offer crayons and a game/coloring sheet. They also have a short kids menu. Go, tell them Chris sent you. When they ask who Chris is, tell them you have no idea. Then the first one to laugh, wins."

"Pros: Food was delicious. I ordered Sweet Potatoe waffles with bacon. Great customer service from server. Cons: We were a party of five and had to wait for a table. My friend's daughter and her husband were on their way from dropping off rental car. Our party waited about 15 minutes to be seated. Once our table was readyWe were told that we couldn't get a table for us all to sit together. About 15-20 mins later, the couple arrived, and they sat at the counter. I was in town for their wedding and I was leaving that day. It was disappointing not to have a meal with the newlyweds."

"First time here and had the blueberry waffle with fried eggs, sausage. Nothing stood out and can say I actually prefer Waffle House over this spot. Almost $20 with tip. Service was good, cleans space. It’s attached to the motel which makes it a good option if not wanting to drive anywhere."

"Solid breakfast spot at the King's Inn. We didn't want to go anywhere far from where we were staying and decided to try The Waffle Spot out. Lorena was our server on Saturday and she was fantastic. Jesus was our server on Sunday and he was awesome. The other staff working both days were also friendly, helpful, attentive and caring. Receiving this type of service at this smaller, more old school establishment was delightful and a nice surprise. I don’t usually go to diners often and enjoyed the experience here. I can also tell the chef and his staff put care into the food. We ordered: * Healthy Options, a white egg omelet with spinach and mushrooms, comes with tomato and egg. *I tried the Healthy Options with nopales (cacti) plus tomato and egg the following day and it was delicious! * Denver Omelet with cheese and sausage, and country potatoes * Blueberry waffles Definitely would recommend this place if you're looking for a quick bite and are staying close by in the hotel circle area!"
