“Delicious breakfasts, good prices, friendly service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 17, 2013

Had brunch here on a weekend recently. It's a no-frills place, but the food is good and plentiful and the service is friendly and quick. Highly recommend it for families.

Have been to this place several times for breakfast and have always loved their food. Great pancakes and their omelets are delicious! Good service also.

“Awful”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed October 12, 2012

Waited a long time to order and to receive our order. The waitress wasn't very nice and the pancakes and waffles were rubbery and undercooked.
Won't be back - IHOP is better.

“So glad we skipped Denny's”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 6, 2012

You never know if the local place will be a hit or a miss compared to the chain restaurant you are used to. We didn't mind trying something new this time since we aren't a big fan of Denny's.

We were so glad we tried this place! My wife was even more happy than I was. She was excited to go back for breakfast the next morning and we hadn't even eaten dinner yet!

The best things about this place is the food, large and delicious and then the service, continual checkups (but not annoying) and very helpful. I think they really like their jobs there.

It was a little noisy as everyone seemed to be talking up a storm but it was kinda cute. It is definitely a local hangout. We recommend!
