They know how to make eggs over medium hard whites with runny yolks perfect for dipping your toast, with great crispy bacon

My friend found Fresh Start on the map so we could stop by for take-out on September 24, 2024. As soon as I walked in I wished I could have stayed to eat rather than take-out. The dining room was homey, comfortable looking, and filled with happy customers. The wait staff were very nice. The cashier was aware of my time crunch and tried very hard to make everything as nice as possible. I had a student with me, as we were on our way to a camping event, and my student was impressed with the cashier lady, for her thoughtfulness and thoroughness with the details to our meals. I do wish the cafe was closer to where I live, but should I ever pass again, I will definitely stop in! Very worth it! The food was delicious!

Vegetarian options: You can tell by the title and description what dishes contain to be able to choose as desired.

Parking: This is a shopping strip mall with parking for everyone, and clearly marked spaces for those who use a handicap sticker.

Kid-friendliness: The atmosphere is pleasant with options for kids. My student, who is 11, was able to look at the menu and order for herself.

Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is accessible all the way through the doors for handicap, with tables set up to accommodate a wheelchair.

Fresh Start has falling off! Since covid been rampant, you guys been holding back on certain things. For example, I normally get the Gyro skillet. Before covid hit they used to give me an ample amount of meat in my skillets. Now since covid spread like wildfire, I get little scraps/small portions of gyro meat in my skillet. I really like this place, but that kinda tuned me off somewhat.

Very disappointed in the food. Eggs were undercooked and she brought me overcooked ones when i was finished with the rest of my food and my sisters sandwich was so bad she took 2 bites and had the busboy take it away.
