First visit, about a year ago, we had a great experience. Great vibe, mimosa flight (although warm), and a favorite dish right out the gate. After bringing friends and family a few times there were changes to the menu. Favorite dish looked completely different, taquito proportion became smaller and less flavorful, runny eggs no matter how they were ordered. This went from a place we brought visitors to a place we avoid rapidly. Last straw was our to-go order. Food was thrown about, ketchup packet in my Benedict, and the gravy had way too much vinegar to name a few things. Food looks nothing like the pictures and is sub par. Not sure if management changed or they're making cuts to the cost of food but sadly I no longer recommend.

DISAPPOINTING! COLD biscuits and gravy! Dry and cold chicken tenders (with my waffles). When I told my waitress about having cold and dry chicken tenders . . . she looks at the chicken and says, ' oh, sorry'. Really!!! Sorry?? PLUS IT WAS VERY OVER priced for the portions served! WON'T BE BACK!

Food is overpriced for portion sizes, but the quality & flavor are good.It's a small place inside & out but popular. You will find yourself waiting if you don't go early enough. I do enjoy the live music on the weekends. Plan ahead or plan to wait. It is enjoyable for small groups of 4 to 6. You can have more people, but probably best to let them know ahead of time if you're planning on more.

100% recommend checking out What’s Crackin Cafe. Don’t leave without doing a mimosa flight! All the flavors are so good. The food was also excellent. Our server Zach made really good recommendations for mimosa flight flavors and our food. He was spot on with everything. The french toast sandwich was the perfect mix of sweet and savory, and I’m so glad Zach recommended the breakfast mini chimis. Probably the best thing we had there. Zach was genuine and provided great customer service. Definitely will be back next time we are in the area.

This used to be a nice restaurant to go to in the neighborhood. They carried a nice champagne and the food was always good. However today's experience was quite disappointing, they've switched to a sub par champagne that is $6 a bottle retail and they charge that at least for glass, and it was nowhere near the Vonin that they used to carry. And today's meal was the worst I've ever had there. I can't say I'd recommend this anymore.

Atmosphere was great, and server was excellent so nice constantly checking on us. That food was a good 7/10 do NOT recommend the green chile sauce AT ALL sorry:( tasted watery and no flavor but other than that tater tots and bacon were good. Seems like a lot of people would come here for the drinks might give it a try next time for that! Good luck

Waiter was fantastic. Small area, not much room to be able to walk around or walk within passing. Patio has nice seating but only 1 heater available for the size of the area. Food was mediocre, the huevos rancheros and chilaquiles were soggy, and avocado Toast was missing most of the avocado. They don't carry jalapenos to be added to your order. Not worth the 30+ minute wait. Maybe I will try lunch but I'll pass on breakfast in the future.

We got fried pickles as an appetizer and they were delicious! Then I got their chicken sandwich with onion rings. The onion rings were really good. I felt that the chicken sandwich was a little dry, but I do tend to like my chicken sandwiches with extra mayo. So I should've asked for that and that's my bad. For dessert, we got these chocolate chip cookies fried in pancake batter and they were absolutely delicious! I don't love sweet stuff so I didn't eat very much of them but the flavor was bomb. I also saw that they do have live music there at times and I would love to go back, have a drink at the bar, and listen to a local band!

Best place to go first thing in that morning. Breakfast is always perfect I try something different every time I go in. Anthony is always mine and my wife's favorite. He can give you information on the food. His suggestions are always appreciated. He polite. Can't get better service and where in the valley.
