We had a great Sunday breakfast š„š³š„š§. Our server, Mai, was excellent. It wasn't busy but I think that was because on the weather (-10F). Three of our group had the breakfast special. We had our choice of French toast, pancake or waffle. Each of us tried a unique option and all were happy with our choice. The pancakes were colossal! He got two pancakes with the #2 special and each was larger than a traditional plate. The country fried steak was good. The steak was nice and crispy. They had very good eye bread. There is no parking free close.

Theyāre simply the best, better than all the restā¦Thanks for feeding me and making my meals so special. A neighborhood staple.
The wait staff are very friendly. Very good homestyle food. I usually get the #3, 2 eggs, meat,hashbrowns, and your choice of toast. Try The Fireman's for an all in one dish with a little kick. The pancakes are high and delicious.

Outstanding new (to me) spot in a familiar neighborhood. Food and service were top-notch, as I imagined they would be. Mai was very kind and I enjoyed discussing the restaurant's history with her. Excellent spot to grab a bite to eat, highly recommend š¤

Usually donāt give bad ratings but the service was not great I mean it was super slow and we had to wave down our server more than once. Had the steak and egg dish was close to 20 dollars and was mediocre. Not really any flavor. Think it is overpriced for what you are getting.

So expensive! Like way too expensive. 2 eggs, hashbrowns and a slice of sourdough for $16?! Plus tip means you're spending almost $20 for a very, very basic breakfast. And that was one of the cheapest options! Plus the eggs weren't even cooked well. Portions do not justify the prices from any of the dishes I saw. I almost always have leftovers and I was still hungry after eating. Definitely not returning. Go down the street to Our Kitchen instead. Better prices, better portions, better vibes.

Mai was fantastic service for us! The daily specials were great, and my partner enjoyed the Cajun Breakfast. Stop in for a sunshiny morning for sure!

Reliable neighborhood spot that we visit frequently. Very family-friendly with a good kids' menu and super friendly staff. The food is average breakfast food, nothing to seek out, but is reliable. What we really like about this place is the staff. We are in about once a month, yet a couple of the servers remember us and parts of what we typically order. It's just a very welcoming environment.
Kid-friendliness: Great kids' menu. Crayons and coloring page at the table. High chairs and booster seats available. Kid-friendly atmosphere.

Decided to try breakfast here. The first thing I noticed were the prices, wow! $18 for 2 eggs, a meat, and hash browns?? All the meal options were in this price range, which seems crazy to me. We ended up ordering the skillet dish and the biscuits and gravy. The huge portions justify the high price, the portions are large enough to bring leftovers home, but I miss the days when a breakfast for 2 people didn't cost $60. The food was tasty and they server was nice. I probably wouldn't return here but I enjoyed my meal.
