Absolutely loved this place. My wife and I try to find local places, when possible. The service was fantastic, and the severs were so nice and enjoyable to talk with as well. The food was fantastic. We had breakfast. Great value for the money! My omelette had tons of bacon, sausage, and ham. My wife had pancakes and eggs. Huge bonus, they had amazing coffee! Dark Matter brand.

Staff was reasonably sweet, but that's all I have for the good at this establishment. I was told that the minimum order for pancakes was a full stack (3) even though they had a short stack (2) on the menu. It made sense when the 20% gratuity was tacked on to the bill. Which they add to any party of 4 or more. I also ordered the chicken and waffle (key word waffle, singular) which came with what I believe was one chicken tender chopped up. $90 Bill was definitely not worth...

Unexpectedly good price for the food you get!

Salsas, salsas everywhere, love it you can pick all you want and try them.

Also they have toys for kids that you need while waiting for your food when it gets busy

The food is really good, particularly the steak and eggs in sandwich.

The brunch weekend line can get biggie, so need to be patient since there were no reservations available.
