My family went for lunch on Saturday, the place was absolutely packed! And for good reason, the food was absolutely delicious! And the service we received from our waiter was perfect. Elijah was very attentive and always happy to meet my toddlers many requests 😅 Also would like to add that even though they were super busy, it took them less than 10 minutes to get us seated and the food didn’t take long to come out at all. All the food was hot and fresh, even the strawberries were freshly cut. We will definitely be spending many more breakfast and lunch dates here!
I'm giving 3 stars only because the food there is always great. But the service at this location was 1 star, horrible on the afternoon of Friday, 9/6/24. We went in around noonish and stood by the hostess stand, which said "please wait here to be seated." We stood there a good 5-10 mins while various servers walked past and around us without even greeting or acknowledging us. 2 other people had come in by that point, one took her takeout bag from the stand and was waiting to pay, but nobody was acknowledging her either. When one of the female servers finally greeted us, it was "did you sign in?" Huh? Sign in? The hostess stand said "wait here to be seated." Apparently there's a window desk with a sign-in sheet now? I thought it was weird but kept quiet and signed in, while the guy waiting behind us said loudly "super weird." Yes. It was super weird. Never have had to sign-in on a clipboard at a restaurant. Such a bad look, and for the servers to condescend to waiting guests by implying they should know to sign in before being helped. I've been going there for years and never saw that before. It was not even busy so I don't know what the fuss was about. Meanwhile, the lady with the takeout was tired of waiting and just nonchalantly walked out. We didn't stop her because we didn't blame her by that point. The male server took the blame but really it was all the servers' faults, they all ignored everyone in the waiting area with no acknowledgement for a solid 10+ mins. Same with the people who arrived after we had been seated. If you're not going to acknowledge people who are there waiting, what's the point. Do your job. Don't be rude. You're making Pamela's name look bad. Oh also the music was a little loud too.

I’m very impressed with the quality of the food especially for the price. Their corned beef omelet is the best I’ve ever had .

We had an amazing breakfast here, a very diner feel but without the greasy spoon heaviness in the food. The Lyonnese potatoes are not to be missed. I don't usually order pancakes for breakfast but was intrigued by the"crepe style" label. Got the strawberry ones. Man were those AMAZING. Reasonably priced, fantastic quality!

Great food with HUGE portions. The amount of food each of us got was enough for two meals. Nice bonus to coming here is there is always someone walking around with a coffee pot to top up your drink.
I recommend making reservations to cut down on the wait time.
