Overall the food is as expected from a diner. We were seated promptly, our order was taken quickly and the food came out quick. Not the worlds best food but I'm not paying for the best either. Steak was slightly overdone but the experience was definitely on par with my expectations. Slick Nick the waiter delivered prompt courteous service. Overall I'd recommend this place and I'll be back.

I went here the other day for breakfast with a small group, and we were seated right away (although it did get super busy once we were done, as there were maybe 20 people waiting for tables at around 9:00 AM). Granted, it was a Saturday so that's to be expected. In regards to the food, I don't think I ordered right...I got the avocado toast with a side of chicken apple sausage. The sausage was good, but a big serving. The avocado toast though...not good at all. I feel like it's a hard dish to mess up but they put the avocado... read more

We've come here a couple times and have consistently great experiences. Today our server was Amber and she was so on top of everything! I have a severe allergy and she took her time to make sure the food was safe for me - but even without that, her service was fantastic. We had omelets, French toast, sausage, hash browns... and it was also tasty and satisfying. I don't know why this place has a 3/5 stars, I would take my family here and recommend it to my friends. It's a solid breakfast joint.

45 minute wait at the table for a mid omelette. Never going here again. Ever again. Never saw the waitress again until I asked someone about our order.

In a group of 2. We waited 45 minutes for food that was pretty mid. The restaurant wasn't that packed either so it was especially frustrating. Waitresses were nice though and they did try pretty hard to make it right.

Servers need training. My daughter and I observed all 3 servers touching their hair and touching their faces and mouths. Also, one had long press on nails which can come off in food. The other had nail polish that was half off and looked unkept. When we were paying our bill, no one was at the register. Then 2 servers came out of the bathroom together. Really bad stuff is going on there! Also, the red potatoes were horrible, burned with a chemical taste. I will add that my daughter and I both worked in the food service indu... read more
