| Pork Tenderloin with Mashed Potatoes and Gravy |
After my recent trip to this Omaha favorite, I'm thinking a "People of 11-Worth" photo site might be a popular idea. Here in the waiting area you've got a group of College World Series bros enjoying the gratis coffee right alongside the Wal-Mart mutants; it's really a beautiful thing. These people obviously had one thing in common: They were hungry. And as the 11-Worth states on their website, they "have always made a point of giving large portions for the best possible value." Unfortunately, they should re-assess their concept of "value." The portions were indeed breathtaking, but who wants an overflowing plateful of crappy food? Take the Pork Tenderloin for instance. The first bite delivered a mouthful of thick breading that made the fatty in me go "mmm." Three bites in and I wondered if I ordered the Pork Tendon-loin by accident, judging by the Grade F meat. The Chicken Philly came on one of those rolls that tasted like it had a very long fake ingredients list. With the canned mushrooms, American cheese, and pathetic frozen French fries, even I couldn't get past the first half, which is really saying something.
You might say we should have stuck to the breakfast. I'd say join the VIP club for 15% off your bill, and go anytime you feel like asking yourself why you didn't go to Leo's, or nearly anywhere else in this town.

| Chicken Philly with French Fries |
first of all, why would you order a chicken philly here??? makes no sense at all. stick with the breakfast items. the 2x2x2 is never disappointing. 2 eggs, 2 pieces of bacon or sausage and 2 pieces of toast. also, their biscuits & gravy are heavenly. nice and thick gravy. the breakfast burrito is a definite filler as well.
ReplyDeleteit's best to go sunday morning for the real entertainment here.
I once saw a customer come in the door with what looked like a stab wound to his forehead. It can be that kind of place. The food is "quantity counts more than quality" but the breakfasts are pretty dinerlicious.
