I ordered a sandwich and my husband had the pizza buffet. There was nothing offensive about my food but the pizza was much better.

We ordered a pizza and it was tastey. A friend ordered the fettucini and enjoyed it very much. The atmosphere is nice, it was very crowded and upbeat. Prices were decent. I would go back again to try other items on the menu.

Popped in here with my wife for a Mother's Day breakfast late morning. A good menu - my Classic Eggs Benedict were just that - Classic. The eggs were just a triffle overdone, but not too much. My wife chose a simple eggs and toast - cooked perfectly! Would not hesitate to recommend.
