From the moment we walked in the customer service was a delight. Pamela our server was very kind and professional! A big shout out as well to the kitchen staff for whipping up a fire vegan breakfast burrito and french toast!!!
This is some of the most average breakfast food I have had in a long time, and the price was the highest, too. I love Denver omelettes, but this one was okay but not great. Hash browns were thick and not adequately pan fried...cold raw potato for most of it. I ate the top layer of the potatoes only and then the toast was not even really toasted, slightly warmed but not crispy anywhere on the bread. The omelette was the best part, and it was mediocre. Service was lacking as well....
This is a good place for breakfast and lunch. However, the service is a bit confusing; they provide black coffee when you sit at the table. We wanted to order breakfast, but the server said, "I am not your server. Let me send you the right person." They simply left us without sending the server or whoever was responsible for taking our order. It was our first time there, so I don't know if this is a common occurrence. Everything else about the place is good.
