“The service was cordial, and the atmosphere was OK. The restaurant smells more like a bar. We had the french toast, which really seemed to be bread dipped in whipped eggs and milk, and grilled in oil. It lacked sweetness and cinnamon. The eggs and bacon we ordered on the side were very good and fresh. Cracker Barrel does a better breakfast.“

I didn’t feel rushed at all (although I did see a sign requesting parties wrap it up in 90 minutes). The ambiance was perfect… even a Sunday Kind of Love was playing as I sipped my cappuccino. The coffee was excellent. I ordered the Sunday Cereal. It was quite delightful and made me smile. I loved the mini pancakes and the fruit was very fresh. My only regret was not ordering the chilaquiles, which many other patrons ordered. The plating was photogenic although I was trying to have a phone free meal. The entire concept of the restaurant … 10/10.“

Level set on expectations for those thinking they are going to a Mastros!We ate here as we are local and was looking for something quick and nearby. Honestly, it felt really well run, I am sure powered by Latinos --- you can tell the hustle and care! Me encanta! The decor is old and if you been in a Black Angus in 1990s, well it hasn't changed since, but still, great price point and decent steaks!“

Their house sauce is amazing and I even got an extra side of it ! I took a bite of the double cheese burger my wife got and it even had an egg on it! We shared the wings and I got the dirty search sauce on my side. Highly recommended the wings with the dirty search flavor. The restaurant had a full bar and tons of seating. I’m definitely coming back here to try some more items on the menu. The waitress was great in helping us picking out menu.“

The service was topnotch. From my perspective the only drawback was the style of music and the volume.“

“It's a dive bar so it lacks ambiance as expected and the service is ok at best, but none of that really matters because what really makes this place spectacular are their crispy, juicy, flavorful buffalo wings. I don't know what they do to make them so delicious but if they told me their secret was rolling them on the ground in the back alley before dishing them out, I would still eat them. Wherever you're at in the county when you have a craving for wings, this place is worth the drive. Just don't eat them there. Order to-go and eat them in your car...unless you're in the mood to watch or be in a good old fashioned bar fight, then stick around.“

It's more like a bar atmosphere. The Kona Pie was just boring. The coffee ice cream was so mild I couldn't even tell it was coffee. The chocolate syrup was that cheap generic stuff. The crust was good. It needed a pop, like some nuts or something too.“
