Convenient location right off 68! A heads up it gets busy on weekends, especially when there are events happening at Toro Park. On those days, the parking can be tough. It's a cute, small restaurant. Not always fast, but the staff is nice. Discount for those paying with cash.

It's my favorite weekend brunch spot. The staff is fantastic and the food is so freaking good! It's always busy, so plan time to wait a minute. But that's the real sign of great food.

Waitress was abrupt, barely glanced at me(grey-haired senior woman), but had a friendly smile and greeting for my younger male friend. Hash browns were not the least bit crisp. I had bacon, eggs, hash browns, toast & coffee. It was “meh”. The best part of breakfast was the coffee, and prompt refills. My friend had a breakfast entree under $20, I believe. All in all, I regret the $10 tip, and the meal was definitely not worth $52 plus $10 tip. First and last time eating here.

Parking: Just off a busy little highway, with strange parking. Parking seems willy nilly, and “wherever”. People seem to park and actually block others in. On top of that, with other cars blocking your view, getting on the highway from the (lower) parking lot is darned tricky….taking a chance and edging out…hoping you don’t get t-boned.

Breakfast. Out of town visitor with(local) friend. Food was “meh”(soggy hash browns). Waitress had few words for me(grey haired woman), but smiling and chatty with younger male friend. Considering it was tiny, crowded, noisy, unfriendly(apparently exception is all smiles for regulars), terrible and tricky “parking lot”….. simple (!) breakfast for 2 was $51….My first and last time to stop at this place.

The place is very family-friendly because you have the opportunity to take your dogs.

Early morning breakfast was awesome. Had the special of skirt steak and eggs. It's so seldom that anyplace gets my eggs just right plus get my hash browns perfect that I can't remember the last time. They were perfect. The marinated skirt steak was very tender and much more than expected for size. As a plus the people there are friendly and easy to talk to or not if you choose. Set us up for a great day. Go there if you ever have a chance. Oh one more important thing for me is how clean the bathrooms are! It says a lot on how clean the kitchen is kept. Spotless.

Kid-friendliness: Kids will love all the things to look at. Nice outdoor seating.
