As always, the German pancake is the best. We always get one for the table and it is everyone’s favorite. I pull off pieces and eat it plain or with butter. My breakfast also came with pancakes which were very good, the others got the potato pancakes and they were delicious. I got the corned beef hash with two poached eggs. Hash was good and had more of a corned beef flavor than other restaurants but it didn’t taste like St Patrick’s Day. The eggs were cooked right. My wife got the California Benedict, the eggs were cooked a little too long and the bacon and English muffin were very hard to cut. My son had the Crab Cake Benedict and his eggs were on the hard side, I pointed it out to our waitress and she was going to replace them but he decided to eat them so he wouldn’t have to wait. Despite those issues, the meal was very good. Everyone was super friendly but the place was busy being a Saturday morning. Our table was just inside the door and a ton of people walked by.Parking: The Amazon grocery store never opened so there is a huge empty lot to park in.Kid-friendliness: They are very nice to kids.

The breakfast food here is always amazing. Their omelettes are huge! The coffee is super strong. I don't care for it as much but my wife loves it. The bacon is thick and the pancakes are very good. My wife and I love this place. We go about once every other month.

Love this place for takeout and dine in. Servers are friendly and good comes out fast.Dietary restrictions: Great for gluten free eaters, but not good for super sensitive celiac’s people.

I ordered biscuits and gravy. They combined it with eggs Benedict (only with gravy instead of hollandaise - and a biscuit instead of English muffin). It was absolutely delicious ???. Service was good and fast. We had to wait about 20 minutes to be seated, but the service was quick, and we got our food very fast. I'll go back for that meal again!!!

Delicious food, served by fantastic servers. They took extra care to serve us promptly since we had 2 little ones with us. The coffee is very good as well! The pancakes are so light and fluffy!

The avocado toast is good but the pumpkin pancakes are the best I've ever had. It was my first time here and I definitely can't wait to go back and try more delicious pancakes from this establish

I remember this restaurant from Las Vegas growing up. The original burned down so I was happy to be visiting and come to this one. As I remembered the food was delicious, especially the pancakes and they give you plenty of it. The service was also as I remembered, excellent!

Table service was great - greeter's service was very sad. Greeter left us outside in the cold while we were waiting for the rest of our party to arrive.The food on the other hand was very good along with the server we had, he tried very hard to make us comfortable and happy. we had several different dishes. Strawberry waffle - great!, sourdough French toast - great!, pancakes and eggs - great!.
