Petinos is described as a busy, welcoming breakfast spot with large generous portions and meals that are consistently fresh and tasty; the service is repeatedly praised as friendly, attentive, and efficient, with staff who know the menu well and offer helpful recommendations; the menu is broad and accommodates many tastes, including gluten free and vegan options, and guests often say they would return and would recommend it for family meals, brunch with friends, or large groups; some comments note that the atmosphere can be loud and crowded and that service speed can vary during peak times, but overall the experience remains very positive across visits.
Last Saturday I had breakfast with two old friends at Petinos. Walking in, I noticed it was quite busy & thinking it would be a while before we would be served. But to my surprise, our waiter - a friendly & helpful young man - was there! The service was quick & the portions were big! I did my best to empty my plate! 😁
My third visit here, & each time I visit is better than the last. The service is always exceptional-we had Jerry today & he really knows how to give folks a terrific experience. One of the best servers I've had the pleasure of meeting. Very kind, funny & fast! Food was hot & delicious as always. The potatoes are the BEST. All around an amazing experience. I've worked breakfast/brunch for years, & it's not an easy industry, but this place does it right. If I could give them 10 stars I would.

Petinos DDO is saved by the most impeccable service you could have. Jerry makes sure you are taken care of from start to finish. Could not have been more accommodating & kind to our group of 13.
The food is average to good, but portions are way too large which leads you to wonder how much food is wasted every day.
The home fries are solid & there are many options on the menu for all tastes, but it is on the pricier side, averaging about $20/person, which is expensive for breakfast.
The bathroom is in major need of cleanup & maintenance. Not acceptable for an establishment like this one.
Petinos DDO is always a great experience. The staff is amazing-friendly, fast, & really make you feel welcome. I especially love the little individual bottles they serve for the mimosas, a nice touch that makes the brunch even better. Great atmosphere, great service. Highly recommend.
Potinos has been my first choice for brunch, management, staff & food are one of the best in westiseland!
My humble suggestion for improvement is to reface the menus as they don't look so appealing especially to new customers. Thanks!
We had breakfast here on Saturday with my family, & it was such a great experience! The food was delicious, fresh, & served so quickly. Everything tasted amazing. A special thank you to Nico, who was taking care of us-he was incredibly kind, always smiling, very gentle, & gave us excellent service. He truly made our morning even better. We'll definitely be coming back!

I hadn't been to this location in many many years. It was great back then, then I think it changed ownership & quality started to drop. That's why I hadn't been. Been back twice in the last couple of weeks & quality & service is way back up there! Loving it
Great Breakfast place! You need to get there before 11am on weekends or you're going to wait a bit. They remember regulars. Service is always very good, & friendly, & offering advice on dishes, if you need it. The eggs are always cooked perfectly. I don't understand the jam on the fresh fruits, but you can ask to not have the jam, & the fruit isn't cut the best (quite a few with rind still on it), but the rest is very tasty!
I always order the Avocado Benedict, with the sauce on the side (a few pics of that). I also ordered the petinos special, which is like meat lovers breakfast, or pork 4 ways.,see pic (bacon, ham, roast pork, Creton, etc).
