We tried this lovely little place on our road trip home. It's safe to say we have a new favorite! If you like biscuits and gravy, it's a must try. Great flavor and texture to the biscuits and chunks of sausage. Yum! I had the chorizo Benedict and it was sooo good. My Son had the chicken and waffles with sausage and eggs and said everything was good. Hubby liked the potato burrito and hash bowns. Giant cups of coffee-these people get me. The waitress was a lovely human to help us wake up the morning.Enjoy!Parking: Its in a strip mall so there's lots of parking.Kid-friendliness: Perfect for families. Lots of food options.

Haven't been here since it was called Francos flapjacks. Boy were we disappointed. Came in a Sunday morning, only 1 other table has people, so we got seated right away. I got chicken & waffles, wife got eggs, bacon and country potatoes. Nothing had flavor. Eggs were bland, potatoes had very little flavor, and the waffle was nothing special. The only thing that was ok was the bacon, and chicken, which was a bit too crispy for my liking. And I never got a refill of coffee, even though there were 2 waiters and 3 other tables full. The only time they stopped by after giving us the food was for the check. Very poor service and food. Plus, the prices are outrageous. $15 for bacon and eggs? Id expect much better quality food for those pricrs. We probably won't be coming back.

One of the better iced teas I've had! Now for the negative. My favorite breakfast item, biscuits and gravy, was poor. There was a lot of it but, didn't care to finish. The gravy had a sour tinge, the biscuits too hard to easily cut. For $5.00 ordered bacon & scrambled eggs. Ate about two bites of the overcooked eggs and a sliced of the minuscule, overcooked, overly fatty bacon.Meal, tax, tip $20.00 and this is the cheapest item. Was better, and less expensive when it was Franco's.

The food is delicious. The staff are friendly. I enjoyed the hamburgers, but I can't wait to try some of the breakfasts I saw them bring to other patrons.

As we headed out of San Diego we decided to stop for some breakfast in Alpine. We stumbled onto this little Gem. We were seated right away and received our drink order right away. The waitress was very friendly took care of our needs. The food came out hot and delicious. Now the one drawback is that this place is small so I wouldn't plan on bringing to many people with you. But I do recommend stopping in and trying them out.

Fast friendly service. Thank you Michelle. My avocado toast and fruit were amazing! Glad I stopped in.

Called in a To-Go Order and the pancakes fluffy and omelette was fantastic. The only disappointment was the hash browns was under cooked. I also uploaded a menu so everyone can find what to order.
