I attended a going away breakfast for a coworker after shift. There were 5 in our party. The food was delicious. Two of us ordered the Shroom omelette. The variety was amazing and the portions were enough to carry half home. Parking is hit and miss on the street, but I did the parking deck and the walk wasn't bad other than the pouring rain. If you're not familiar with the parking deck .. make sure you PAY @ the office prior to attempting to leave. Great place, was fairly quiet our morning, but could've just been the bad weather. I recommend.

First of all, 4.6 ratings are not equal across places. In any given large city that knows food, this place would have MAYBE 2 stars. The food was flavorless. The atmosphere was extremely loud and intrusive. The place could use a good scrub down. If you go, don't look at the corners because you will see crusted dirt. Gross.

This place has it all, which probably describes why it is nearly always lined with people waiting to eat there. Great selection of breakfast dishes, and they are pretty good at accommodating special requests.

Found this gem of a restaurant on google. Located in old town Salinas, it’s friendly & inviting atmosphere. I ordered the eggs with ham steak & breakfast potatoes. DELISH! The orange juice was fresh & the coffee was freshly brewed. Isabel & the rest of staff was friendly & attentive. I would recommend anyone to have breakfast here

My husband and I stopped at this breakfast spot along our road trip, and we loved it. Everyone from the hosts and wait staff were extremely friendly, service was fast, and the restaurant was decorated everywhere with Halloween-themed decor, it was a super cute vibe. We got the portobello mushroom and blue cheese omelette, and the portion was a nice size. Would definitely come here again.

Great please for breakfast. Coming back soon. 🙂
We arrived shortly after opening and seated right away, waited on promptly. Some of the other patrons spoke quite loudly so it was difficult to hear each other at our small table. No fault of the restaurant, just for other customers... know how loud you speak. Large portions of food and tasty. I ordered an omelet and was full of veggies. The potatoes did not taste good, way too oily. He ordered 2 eggs and meat. He too did not like the potatoes. Which was fine, luckily portions were so good we were still quite full without eating the potatoes. Staff was friendly and attentive. Would definitely go back.
