We met for lunch at Pegah’s on March 06,2026 @ 12:45pm. The best experience about our lunch was the daily catfish special, my country fried steak was sub-par (15.99) I believe it was American food or Sysco service ( premade) .The table also had a Philly cheese steak sandwich & a chicken bacon melt both these items were rated a 7 out of a 10. We ordered extra tater sauce for additional 49 cents per container. I was so relieved when our lunch was done, the server ( Michelle M.) was argumentative , talked over me & disrespectful with me. I guess she felt this is a friendly small town gesture. Please reserve this type of behavior for your family. As a new customer I felt terrible & embarrassed after our lunch & I still tipped 20%.😒. My family owned a restaurant for over 30 years, I try not to review small business too harshly but this server definitely crossed the line. We definitely won’t be going back anytime soon! Hopefully this review helps someone in the future.

As newcomers to this particular area of KC Pegah's has become a new happy morning place for us. Consistently good, and ALL of the waitresses are top notch and personable. It simply feels like home.

The food is good when they actually get your order right or don't forget things all together. Not putting chicken on a salad(that comes with chicken) forgetting side items, completely making something else besides what you order. It's like playing roulette with every order. This used to be my go - to for lunch and I think I am just going to have to be done and find some place else. I don't know who they have working for them but man the inconsistencies are just terrible

When we arrived they were full up, but they were efficiently working tables. In a quick time we had a table. The service was very quick and friendly. The food was great and from a fun creative menu selection. I highly recommend it.

Scarlett and I began our day with breakfast at Pegah's, a restaurant she frequents for breakfast. Despite the lively atmosphere due to St. Patrick's Day celebrations, with Irish dishes featured, we selected the traditional breakfast option consisting of biscuit and gravy, hash browns, eggs, and bacon. As we waited for our meal to arrive, Scarlett and I played multiple rounds of tic-tac-toe. Upon receiving our food, we found it to be acceptable, with some minor issues - the bacon was extremely salty, the hash browns were crispy as requested, but the eggs were slightly overcooked. Nevertheless, due to our hunger, we ate our meal. The service was satisfactory, with friendly staff members. After completing our meal, we proceeded to our next destination.

The food is always super good but the wait staff and the manager are always incredibly rude. We have come multiple times because we love their breakfast but every time we are met with rude attitude.

Used to be one of my favorite places to go UNTIL I heard how the cooks treat the servers ! ( cook’s all men server’s all women ) I can’t support a restaurant where the OWNER LETS THE COOKS DISRESPECT AND DEGRADE THE WOMEN !!!!!

So just several different things. Server was extremely nice. Mushrooms were good as appetizer. The Potato soup was a no go, waffle fries a couple were still stuck together which made them still cold in the middle. The lemon in the water was soured. The roll was not great had a weird taste. The chicken fried chicken was ok just a little salty. Chicken salad was ok did have some brown lettuce little bit more than we liked for sure. Again the server was super polite and they did refund the soup!

Manger is horrible!! I came in for a dash and waiting 15 min pass the time. They had a young lady standing at the front that didn’t speak English so that was there reason she couldn’t read the order and hand over the order. Then tried to gaslight use saying we being rude when don’t Spanish as well and she working with them and standing by the food for 5 mins. Also the manager said they were short staff but came out eating food and got mad when I said everything’s on camera. I never had a bad experience but this one was bad.
