First time here with my family after Drill School Graduation and it was fantastic. Great food, great atmosphere, and we had the best server. I wish I remembered her name, but she was great and had such a great spirit with our Georgia Bulldog banter. 🏈🐾 Def recommend and would love to come back again when we are in the area in the future. #godawgs

This is a good place for breakfast and lunch. The menu is limited with a focus on pancakes as the foundation of meals. The omelets are baked, which gives a different presentation. They have some specialty meals that are worth trying. I suggest checking out the online menu prior to going to the restaurant.

Very friendly staff, large menu of options, and food is all cooked to order and served hot! There’s a wait to be seated due to how popular this location is but they do their best to seat you quickly. There was another wait from when we ordered to when we received the food because of how busy the kitchen is but it was worth it with how delicious it was and how large the portions are. They are very flexible in adjusting menu items to your requests so the entire menu is pretty...
