Another breakfast spot. Food isn't bad, but its also not anything grand or unique. Two egg serving on different plates aren't the same—my plate came with twice as much of a 2 egg serving as another person's plate.

It is so annoying loud here. You can barely hear the people at your own table. Before it was John's Pancake house, it didn't sound so bad. If noises bother you, I'd avoid during busy times.

Was in the area for a concert. Stopped here for breakfast the day after. The place was nearly packed full. The wait staff were on it and the food was amazing. Definitely going to be my go to every time I'm in the area.
June 2025
Solid brunch offerings served fast by friendly staff. Highly recommend. They also have outdoor seating & welcome dogs.

Vegetarian options: You can custome order most dishes w/o meat.

Dietary restrictions: They were very good about leaving out ingredients we cannot eat.
