“Being an old-ish Army Vet, I had to try the SOS, as it was the go to breakfast in the 80's Army. I was not disappointed with the flavor or the memories! Great, efficient servers, service and food. 12 stars outta 10 stars! (When the VA appointments send me this way again, I'll definitely be getting my breakfast here!)“

“🍽️ Restaurant Review
The overall experience was excellent, characterized by a pleasant atmosphere and exceptionally prompt service.
🌟 Ambiance & Service
* Atmosphere: The vibe was great. The music selection was enjoyable, and the restaurant was comfortably busy—not overly packed.
* Service Speed: I was seated immediately, and the service was genuinely outstanding. The staff was incredibly attentive; I received my requests within literally 30 seconds. This level of efficiency, while warranting a generous tip, significantly enhanced the dining experience.
☕ Drinks & Appetizers
* Cinnamon Coffee: A highly recommended start! It was very good, featuring noticeable and pleasant hints of cinnamon.
* Onion Rings: A definite 10 out of 10. They were fantastic both plain and, even better, when paired with the ranch dressing.
* Specialty Salsa: This sauce, which we asked for on the side, was super delicious and packed with flavor. While it had a slight kick (a bit spicy for my personal taste), it was excellent overall. It truly elevated the burger.
🍳 Main Dishes
Eggs Benedict
This dish was quite good overall, though a couple of preparation issues were noted:
* Taste: Very good, particularly the hollandaise sauce, which was nicely seasoned.
* Hash Browns: Nice and crispy. They needed just a touch more salt when eaten plain but were perfect with a side of ketchup.
* Poached Egg: The yolk was runny, which is ideal, but the egg preparation was flawed. I observed some water leakage, and parts of the egg white were undercooked, suggesting the egg was taken out of the water too soon.
* Plating: The presentation was a bit bland. Adding a simple garnish, like chives over the hollandaise sauce, would significantly improve its visual appeal.
House Special Burger
A very enjoyable main course:
* Flavor & Texture: The burger had very good flavor and was wonderfully juicy.
* Minor Note: The only element missing was an onion, which would have completed the profile.
* Serving Suggestion: Pairing this burger with the flavorful specialty salsa made it absolutely excellent.
In summary, despite minor issues with the poached egg and plating, the quick service, excellent atmosphere, and high-quality items like the Onion Rings and House Special Burger make this restaurant highly recommendable.“

“A must for breakfast in Carmel!! My favorite is Eggs Benedict. There are about 20 varieties but my favorite is the Truffle Eggs Benedict. The omelettes are amazing too. My kids always get the pancakes. Again there are many varieties and all are good. I have snuck bites from my kids’ plates and I can attest that they are scrumptious. Last but not least is the Hot Chocolate. Topped with whipped cream. It is spectacular. (Pro Tips: they only accept cash, and you should call ahead for hours because the sometimes change)“
