Man, what a find! I was driving around after a brutal early morning of Amazon deliveries (you know how it is!), and I was seriously craving some good grits. I actually Googled "grits near me," which is how I stumbled upon this place. I'd seen a review that mentioned "classic diner vibes," and that totally sold me.
Walking in, it was like stepping into a different world although it's a bit dated, everyone was so friendly – not just the staff, but the other customers too! I got a bunch of "good mornings" from complete strangers, which was honestly so refreshing. It felt like a real community, a family kind of atmosphere.
My server was a total sweetheart. She knew the menu like the back of her hand and was super helpful in guiding me to the perfect breakfast. I ordered the Chuckwagon with eggs over medium, pan sausage, home fries and a side of cheese grits. My server even pointed out a way I could save a few bucks, which I really appreciated. It's awesome when servers are that considerate.
The food came out fast and was exactly what I was hoping for – hot, fresh, and cooked perfectly. I got over-medium eggs and grits, and when I poured the grits over my eggs, my server gave me a knowing look and said, "Now that's how you do it – the classic Southern way!" That just made my day. It brought back all these memories of having breakfast with my grandparents – those classic diner breakfasts that just feel like home. It was a real nostalgia trip.
Seriously, the whole experience was just what I needed – good food, good people, and a great atmosphere. It just felt… good.
I did notice the prices were a little higher than what I saw in some older menu pics online, but honestly, with everything going on these days, it's not surprising.
Even with the slightly higher prices, I absolutely loved this place. I'm definitely going back soon. It's the perfect spot for a comforting, classic breakfast that just hits the spot.

This is a Miami Classic. Excellent food and service. Extremely, fair prices. Awesome, coffee from a roaster in Florida. Very clean and efficient restaurant. Easy parking and quick service. I wish there were more places like this throughout South Florida and the east coast. The pancakes were delicious. This is a must visit for an excellent classic well served breakfast.

Really disappointed in how bad this place has gotten. The food used to be good but it's not what it used to be. It's just not good. You can make better stuff at home for half the price. Eggs were rubbery. Biscuits were dry. And so overpriced. Breakfast shouldn't be that expensive anywhere. Booth seats are old and falling apart. Best things were the home fries and the service. Won't be coming back again.

The food was great. Although a bit on the pricey side for breakfast. Service was outstanding. Their parking a a bit peculiar, and you need to be careful while pulling in and out.
