Food Suggestions to Maintain Cholesterol Level at Village Inn
Breakfast is actually very good here. My eggs were cooked just as I ordered. The hash browns were perfect and just as I like them : a little crispy brown on the outside. Waffles were very light and rich in flavor. The apple pie was surprisingly delicious with a perfectly flaky crust to boot. My expectations were exceeded. I will be back for breakfast.

This is definitely a late night place. Service was poor, It was hard to get service but once the food arrived It was pretty good. I'm not saying I will be back but without that it's definitely a one star place.

The 4 stars is less about the food, and more about the reliability. Village Inn is not exciting in a culinary sense. (They serve meals that are quintessential breakfast/diner favorites) However, this location has been a staple for many late night food cravings. The restaurant is always clean, which is an added bonus, especially after a night of drinking/partying. The decor is about as cheesy as it can be, but I really don't mind as long as the restaurant is comfortable and well taken care of. Just take Village Inn for what it is- a breakfast chain. However, amongst its competitors Village Inn really is better. They have reliable food, nice service and an adequate atmosphere. While I would hit up several local restaurants here in Salt Lake before Village Inn, I am thankful they are open late to satisfy my late night munchies.

This place is ga'zillion better then Denny's and IHOP. Their french toast and pancakes are so delicious. The place was packed with youngsters...sort of made me realized I'm not young anymore. The service was pretty good. Good place for food when nothing else is open around town.

This location has great nostalgia for me from high school and college days. Now it is just weird. New branding tries to look retro but very Martha Stewart. The manager kept going out and smoking and not once washed his hands, sick! My omelette was good and the waffles foster was awesome. Food is for sure better than denny's.

Keith M.
I liked this place. It was better than Denny's and on par with the likes of IHOP. The service was good, the food tasty and the restaurant was clean. I ordered the country sausage crepes. Eggs and sausage wrapped in a crepe and smothered in country gravy. Delish! Wednesday nights are free pie night. Any purchase (even a drink) gets you a free slice of pie!

Let's talk briefly about my experience with Village Inn as a chain: Much, much better food than Denny's or IHOP. Clean, well maintained restaurants. Some innovative dishes (others have cited the breakfast skillets and I wholeheartedly agree). Good pie. Coming from California where these places don't exist, the first time I ate at a Village Inn it seemed special, different, and better. That feeling has worn off a little after many visits, but the food quality is still obviously a cut above Denny's and IHOP, and I'm confident this will keep me coming back through the years. Now let's talk about this specific restaurant. On top of the above, great, fast service and quickly prepared yet delicious food. Special requests are not a problem. Parking isn't perfect, but it's pretty good. The only semi-complaint I would have is with the manager who, although always a courteous and polite gentleman, comes off a bit... is hawkish the right word? Whenever he comes by to ask if our needs are being met (and again, they always are) I get the feeling that there would be immediate and terrible consequences for my server if I were ever to say no. It's not a "Is there anything I can do to make things (which I am assuming are already good) any better?" as much as "Is there anything that your server hasn't done right that I didn't notice while I was staring at them from across the room?" This makes me feel a little uncomfortable, but overall it's admittedly not enough to keep me from coming back.

Came here for free pie Wednesday after a long day. This place is like your typical village inn that you find anywhere. It isn't all that clean but what do you expect for a chain restaurant. Let's me start off on saying that if you are coming here for the service don't expect anything good. I been here many times and the waitress have such rude attitude ESP when serving the food, she will just throw it on the table like if she was feeding animals. The only good thing about this place is that they open 24/7. Free pie ends at 10 pm. With free pie Wednesday is any purchase you get a free slice of pie. So you can order a scoop of ice cream and you get a free pie. Another thing to note is that they have certain pies that they offer for free. So make sure you ask for the free pie selection. Presentation of food is horrible. My friend got her pie and it look like someone ate the first off the pie. My peach supreme pie looked like gravity was too heavy on it and it sunk. All in all, I would only go back to this place when there is no where else left to go, or maybe free pie, not really recommended.

The chicken fried steak for breakfast was mediocre. The over medium eggs were more over easy. The hashbrowns were scant ... The circle of them smaller than a small pancake. The waitress tried to be friendly, but lacked the spark of a good wait person. She did try, though. The host was a decent and friendly young man. We will probably go to IHOP next time we are in town.

I moved into this area of Slc about six months ago and within walking distance of this Village Inn. One late night after a evening out with friends we decided to go to Village Inn to help heal the damage we had done lol. It was about 2:00am and I was expecting horrible food and service... I was very pleasingly mistaken. Our meals tasted amazing and the service was amazing. We talked about how good it was several times the next day. About two weeks later on a mid Sunday afternoon we decided to go again to see if the amazing experience we had the first time was just a lucky night...but yet again I was surprised by the service and quality of the food. The breakfast skillets are AMAZING! I will be returning again and again and recommend this location to anyone.

Thomas H.
Meh. Nothing to magical here. The service seems sub-par so far. Very curt and not helpful. Rather then explaining the menu it's look at like an inconvenience. I wouldn't recommend coming here if you could avoid it. Might be better to either hit another location or a different restaurant all together.

Dear Village Inn, I understand that you are not meant to have vegans walk into your doors. Sadly, you were the only choice at 3am so we found ourselves there with a lot of young people and a couple of vikings from Fantasy Con. As we are not unbendable vegans and were starving (that's what happens when you get your dance on at Area 51 for two solid hours) we opted for the most vegetarian items we could find. A veggie omelette hold the cheese (It offered cheese inside AND on top) and a salad hold the ham, turkey, bacon bits, AND cheese. Or something like that. Your salads are hilarious. Have some lettuce with some meat and more meat and crumbles of meat on the meat and cheese on top of everything but under a heavy blanket of ranch dressing. Eat it. It's healthy because it's a salad. Disregard the fact that your salad is five thousand calories, you see a bit of greenery underneath that cold cut? That means it's good for you. Haha! But we understand. Healthy people are usually sleeping at 3am and not part of your target audience. You transformed us for starving to not starving, and for that we thank you. Sincerely, Angela

Closest diner I could find near the U hospital. I had a cup of hot chicken noodle soup on a very rainy day, really good and homemade. The french dip was super tasty, served on garlic roll with hot au jus and fresh hot delicious fries. Great service too!

Far exceeded my "Dennys like" expectations! Very clean. Like Russell said, the service is a little tired but that's ok, got better. Food was very good. I had a skillet and it came hot! They're ain't shit open in SLC after 10pm, this is a solid option.

Felipe Z.
It's okay to go there at 2-3 am, after a party, or dancing, or wasted, or stoned. The servers are so nice, and most of them pretty chatty and fun to chill with when in that "Post-party state". I don't know if I would go for a sweet slice of pie at 3 pm, but the place fulfills it's purpose late at night, and I'm thankful for that. I know they do have deals, which you can check in their webpage I'm sure. The girl at the cashier that night we were all dressed up for our halloween party made me fall in love with her, and her cute smile... sighhhhhhhhhh. sampler is my go to, although super ghetto, it gets cooked really fast, and it fulfills its purpose when munching. yumyumyum.

I took mom on a sunday for lunch we both ordered sandwiches with fries. The sandwiches were good but way overpriced for the amount of food, the fries were not good or hot and there were only about ten on our plates. The service was wonderful and friendly. But for 25 bucks the meals should have been bigger.

I have a soft spot for Village Inn. It's a quintessentially American restaurant. It has a comforting feel, and generally friendly service. It's the kind of place that is appropriate to go to with either your friends, your lover, your kids, or your parents. Plus, it's open 24 hours. The best part is perusing the exhaustive menu, brimming with All-American favorites. I suggest a trip to their website to check out their cool interactive menu, guaranteed to whet your appetite. Witness this (very) small cross-section of the items available: Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs, Denver Omelet, Blueberry Pancakes, Rio Grande Skillet, Chicken and Waffles, Club Sandwich, Reuben, Tuna Melt, Cobb Salad, Chili Cheeseburger, Pork Chops, Fish and Chips, Fried Shrimp, Slow-Roasted Turkey, Pecan Pie, and Country Apple Pie. "God bless American, land that I love..." The only problem is that the food never looks quite as good as the pictures on the menu. And the reality of the meal is slightly less satisfying than what is anticipated. Still, there is a secure place for the Village Inn, both in my heart, and my stomach.

This place is a joke. The turkey avocado flatbread sandwich sucked. It took them for ever to bring our food out. Even though the restaurant was empty, they decided to seat these two psychology majors in the booth next to us so we could have the pleasure of listening to their annoying conversation the whole time. They double billed us for an item twice and made up a story of us wanting fries so they had to charge it twice WTF. I didn't even want to argue with them as I was soo done by this point so just paid and left. oh the guy that seems to be the manager stopped by our table and asked us how the food was. I told him the turkey sandwich was really dry and not appetizing and he just stood there staring at us as if he was at a loss for words WTF. Why ask a question when you dont know how to respond to the customer? Uggh... never again.

Worst diner on the planet! After frequenting V.I. for the past 8 years I am officially throwing in the towel. My past seven consecutive experiences have been horrible and all involve lousy service and absolutely the worst brown piss for coffee on earth. I live near this restaurant and was eager to see things improve after the remodel, however they have only declined. On several occasion my waitress has forgotten my order and or my check, and everyone of them has a terrible attitude and clearly no concept of customer service. Sorry Village Inn, but the way I see it, I've already given you one too many chances.

For mediocre food served all day long, especially late at night, you can't beat Village Inn. Is their food going to win any awards? No. But at 2am do you really care? No. Village Inn is great for what it is good for, open 24 hours to serve the late night and early morning crowds.

So it's 1:30 AM, the night is winding down, and you and your friends are craving some food before shuffling off to your respective beds. Your options boil down to the Betos "Russian Roulette", Downtown Denny's, or Village Inn. Personally I'd go with the Village Inn. I won't sugar coat it, you're at Village Inn. But that being said this is one of the better 24 hour breakfast restaurants, and at this time of night you're probably not looking for a 5 star dining experience. What you do get is never ending coffee, a filling breakfast, and something rare for 2AM... Great service. I honestly don't know how people serving groggy and often drunk college kids in the middle of the night can still be helpful and friendly but they do it here. On service alone I'd like to give them 5 stars, and for this time of night they deserve another 5 stars. However any other time of day I'd rate it 2 so we'll call it 3 overall. A word of warning. They technically close at 3AM so do the staff a favor and try to be out before then.

My boyfriend once got food poisoning here. How's that to start? This place was recently remodeled to look like a cheap knockoff of some 50s diner. It's difficult to eat anything healthful here, and the service is usually sub-par. I recently went and was able to eat paleo pretty easily (Cobb salad, no bleu cheese). It's just a Denny's type joint, so don't expect much.

The Denver omelet leaves something to be desired. Since VI Corp went into Bankrupcy status, portion controls are strictly followed, so it was a bit small. That and the green peppers seemed to be an after thought, tossed on the top of the omelet. Hash browns were a bit better than usual, but same grease ball they usually are. Old GM is back, much better than the clueless heavy set GM that had been there previously - who is still there fr/sa as a backup to the main GM. Parking is still a nightmare, enter from University (400 South) if possible, huge dip when entering/exiting via 900 East.

Yep, I love bacon and when you have a breakfast skillet that is a scrambled mix of bacon, potatoes cheese and eggs with 2 slices of bacon on top. you have my attention. They do breakfast all day and they are very consistent. Their iced tea is great and pies are OK. and the service is alright.

Therron R.
Village Inn is a step-up from the dirty Metro Denny's experience. A bit busy with the college crowds, and parking can be bad, but the service is usually quick, and I love their skillets. All dishes are reasonably priced, and the food is of a good quality. I recommend the South Salt Lake State St. location over this one. Sometimes the male manager is a bit short with us. Not sure why, maybe he's not to fond of young adult men?

Worst diner on the planet! After frequenting V.I. for the past 8 years I am officially throwing in the towel. My past seven consecutive experiences have been horrible and all involve lousy service and absolutely the worst brown piss for coffee on earth. I live near this restaurant and was eager to see things improve after the remodel, however they have only declined. On several occasion my waitress has forgotten my order and or my check, and everyone of them has a terrible attitude and clearly no concept of customer service. Sorry Village Inn, but the way I see it, I've already given you one too many chances.

Simply not great. Mediocre omelette, very undercooked potatoes, order was brought out incorrectly. Like a Denny's but Denny's is actually better

All I can say is Wednesdays, free pie? Yes please! YUMO!

For mediocre food served all day long, especially late at night, you can't beat Village Inn. Is their food going to win any awards? No. But at 2am do you really care? No. Village Inn is great for what it is good for, open 24 hours to serve the late night and early morning crowds.

So it's 1:30 AM, the night is winding down, and you and your friends are craving some food before shuffling off to your respective beds. Your options boil down to the Betos "Russian Roulette", Downtown Denny's, or Village Inn. Personally I'd go with the Village Inn. I won't sugar coat it, you're at Village Inn. But that being said this is one of the better 24 hour breakfast restaurants, and at this time of night you're probably not looking for a 5 star dining experience. What you do get is never ending coffee, a filling breakfast, and something rare for 2AM... Great service. I honestly don't know how people serving groggy and often drunk college kids in the middle of the night can still be helpful and friendly but they do it here. On service alone I'd like to give them 5 stars, and for this time of night they deserve another 5 stars. However any other time of day I'd rate it 2 so we'll call it 3 overall. A word of warning. They technically close at 3AM so do the staff a favor and try to be out before then.

My boyfriend once got food poisoning here. How's that to start? This place was recently remodeled to look like a cheap knockoff of some 50s diner. It's difficult to eat anything healthful here, and the service is usually sub-par. I recently went and was able to eat paleo pretty easily (Cobb salad, no bleu cheese). It's just a Denny's type joint, so don't expect much.

The Denver omelet leaves something to be desired. Since VI Corp went into Bankrupcy status, portion controls are strictly followed, so it was a bit small. That and the green peppers seemed to be an after thought, tossed on the top of the omelet. Hash browns were a bit better than usual, but same grease ball they usually are. Old GM is back, much better than the clueless heavy set GM that had been there previously - who is still there fr/sa as a backup to the main GM. Parking is still a nightmare, enter from University (400 South) if possible, huge dip when entering/exiting via 900 East.

Yep, I love bacon and when you have a breakfast skillet that is a scrambled mix of bacon, potatoes cheese and eggs with 2 slices of bacon on top. you have my attention. They do breakfast all day and they are very consistent. Their iced tea is great and pies are OK. and the service is alright.

Village Inn is a step-up from the dirty Metro Denny's experience. A bit busy with the college crowds, and parking can be bad, but the service is usually quick, and I love their skillets. All dishes are reasonably priced, and the food is of a good quality. I recommend the South Salt Lake State St. location over this one. Sometimes the male manager is a bit short with us. Not sure why, maybe he's not to fond of young adult men?
