My husband and I go to BBD at least two times a week .We have gotten to know the waitresses ( who is expecting , who is the daughter and mom waitresses , who went to Vegas ) very well . They all do their absolute best, even when short staffed or slammed with customers .My husband swears by the pancakes and I love the Saturday night prime rib .They always accommodate our requests to choose our own ingredients for an omelette or substitute an item .Friendly service , great food and a good music to choose on the jukebox!
