Very disappointed. This is the third time we have had to wait extremely long for our breakfast. 47minutes to cook what we ordered and then to pay $52 for subpar breakfast. We try to support locally but issues like this make it hard to justify our hard earned money being spent this way.
Place was packed still got my wonderful food in a timely manner! The staff was super friendly the views are the best around!

The outdoor seating area is especially appreciated, with a small, cute building on top of a bluff. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring that orders are taken quickly and correctly, even when busy. The restaurant features a hot and salad bar that is clean and well-maintained.
