Terrible Breakfast. Ordered pancakes, first round they were cold and doughy. Server replaced them and second round was undercooked and tasted like flour and cardboard. I ordered omelet and red potatoes, got cold omelet and hash browns. Restaurant had moldy, water stained, and disgusting wet ceiling tiles all over restaurant. Overall place is dirty, serves disgusting food, and can't get a simple order correct.

Been back many times and food is always decent diner food. My only update is: get rid of the canned green beans. We've never opted for those as a side and my partner wanted pot roast so when the server suggested mashed potatoes and green beans he just said yes. I know she was trying to be helpful but he never would have selected the green beans when he was already having salad. He would have been happy had they been edible. I took one green bean and knew instantly they were canned. Just awful and mushy. Plus they're served i... read more

Inexperienced staff I have been ordering the same dish from this specific location on and off for about 4 months now and was informed that an ingredient that is crucial to the dish is now somehow not in it. I order the SCRAMBOWL and always call to change the country red potatoes that it is served over to hash browns. When calling this morning to make a regular modification, I was informed by either a younger server or hostess that the dish doesn't even come with country red potatoes. I proceeded to tell her I've called in m... read more

I was at this location for dinner with a couple of close friends and was very disappointed. We each ordered different dinner entrees, and were sadly disappointed in certain aspects of everything ordered. When one of my companions voiced legitimate concerns regarding the meal, the response of the staff was inappropriately dismissive and unsatisfactory. The one bright spot for the encounter was the mashed red potatoes. Otherwise, the meal was a regrettable disappointment. I will have to give serious thought as to whether I wil... read more

Recommend going before 10 AM. We normally have a great meal, today was not one. The food was not cooked to order and was cold. The server was never to be seen, we had to ask several times for items. Not the normal dining experience, unfortunate.
