“This place lots of negitive reviews so i thought to give it a try.”

This place lots of negitive reviews so i thought to give it a try. I dont base going to places based on negitive reviews i do read them as its enjoyable for me. Lots of "nasty, rude, bad, horrible, key words used but it was far from that for us. I think some google reviewers are very sensitive and dont know how to handle situations, so they just come here to put you on blast instead of giving an actual proper review. You cant mess up waffles, eggs, hashbrows toast and country fried steak, strip steak all were a hit 5/5 food was yes FAST and HOT recommend everything we ate. Waitress there was only 1 so give her some time and be patient as she is making her rounds she was kind. I think parties of 10 or more forget that there are other tables to they expect top notch priority customer service, you cannot get that with one waitress just my opinion. We paid about 67.00 plus 20percent tip so do the math, expensive breakfest but it is what it is cook at home if you feel that its too much. Tip your servers!

“A nice place for locals.”

A nice place for locals. Service is fast. Waitress is very busy. The avocado toast was basic. It was actually a build your own. I had to smash and season the avocado myself. Overall just ok.

Foods 2.5/5. Food was bland like beige. Needs seasoning or something - maybe passion or a general sense of duty. Aesthetically pleasing in every sense of the word- my server might even be a model. However she looked offended when I asked if they had any real syrup instead of the McDonald’s type packets. Apparently every restaurant uses this type of syrup- they just put it in a nice bottle.

Just ok. We ordered the food and it arrived quickly. Omelet was ok, but hashbrowns were dried out and hard... does not appear to be freshly prepared. I'm not a fan of the packaged syrup when I am dining inside either. Average price point ~$23 for 2. Parking onsite.
