Delta Cafe

Funky Southern Fun with Great Food.. A very funky place with extremely great southern food. Our waiter was a great help and made us laugh. We were there on a Monday evening and it was just great....but I have a feeling this place is hopping on the weekends. I had wonderful Chicken Fried Steak and My husband had the Catfish. Both really great. My mother had the fried chicken and said it was really tasty and juice all enclosed by a tasty outer crust. I am now a huge fan of Collard Greens. It was a great birthday pick.  View Less … View More

I almost went to jail because of how rude the waiter was!!!. Went to eat dinner on St. Patty's day with my wife and kids. From the jump the waiter was possibly the lamest person I have ever had serve me...and I have had some winners...he was rude and acted as if we were ruining his day by being there to eat. We shrugged it off and figured we just wouldn't tip the clown.

Now here is where I made a mistake...we approach raising our kids in a more...say European manner..and a sip of beer at home with dinner every once in a while..to take the taboo out of the experience is how we choose to deal with trying to help our kids being binge drinkers. So we made the mistake of thinking that since it is LEGAL at home..and yes it is legal is the USA to do so...we have always thought it was legal at a restaurant. Well it is not and if the waiter would of informed us of this we would of gladly apologized ( for me allowing our 14yrs old to sip my wife's drink) and then researched once home and if finding out he was correct never do it again as it is not our intention to get an establishment in trouble with the law.

BUT HIS RESPONSE WAS TO YELL AT THE TOP OF HIS LUNGS AT OUR TABLE..."No no no...are you kidding me?" Then he came and took my wife's drink away. His tone and movements were not only rude but to my wife they were threatening.

Needless to say this evolved into me having some words with him and almost getting into a fist fight.

The cops were called and no charges were filled against me. Even if I had been charged with harassment..which the waiter has the option to pursue..I would have been fine with it. Yelling at a man's wife and kids? Really?

It wasn't me this time..but I have a feeling if the management at Delta doesn't improve their servers people skills.. somebody else may end up having the cops called on them.

Worst experience I have ever had at a restaurant!!!!!

My best friend..Big Papa R.I.P. started Papa's Soul Food Kitchen in Eugene, Oregon and it is the most successful spot in town...great food...wonderful people..and no hipster attitude. If you want good soul food...make sure it really has some soul!!

This review was written by Elijah Mack, Master Barber and founder of Mos Faded Barbershop in Eugene Oregon. So for the people who know me and how I live my life than you will understand how horrible this place was for me to get this upset. To all my friends...Boycott The Delta Cafe!  View Less … View More

The service is ALWAYS lacking. We have been to Delta several times and the food is alright most the time (but not great). However the other night when we are there it sealed the deal on us NEVER GOING BACK...

Long story short: The waiter was rude from the start and seemed to have no patients with us, and then at one point YELLED AT OUR KIDS FROM ACROSS THE RESTAURANT (we have three boys 14, 10, and 7 month old) which resulted in us leaving before getting our food. The waiter was confrontational upon our leaving. When we asked to talk to the manager there was no one "in charge" on site or available to talk to...
