The breakfast was really delicious! Key, was server and deserves 20% tips or better every time. She was so kind and polite. I wish every server in the world was like her. Thank you.

Went with my wife and son for some brunch a couple of weeks ago. Service was helpful and made sure my son had plenty of whip cream! Food was tasty!

We have been to this establishment a couple times for brunch and it was good. However, on 11/15/2025 we decided to come her for lunch. We arrived and the hostess barely greeted us. She asked how many for our party, and we said 2. She pointed to a table and said do you wanna sit there. We said sure and sat at a table. It was right by the door which is inconvenient due to it being chilly outside, but since they were busy we decided to not complain. It took forever for our waitress to even come to greet us, so the hostess brings over some water. When our waitress finally comes over and dryly greets us, she asks us what we want to drink. We then ordered our food. My boyfriend and I both ordered the 4 wing meal with two sides. We waited 45 minutes for our food. Our waitress did not come over to the table a single time during our wait to ask if we needed anything or to apologize for the long wait. We then notice that a plate of wings is up on the counter. A waitress with blonde and dark brown hair told our waitress twice that the food was ready, and our waitress was standing behind the bar working over there. The cook also pointed to our food twice to tell her it was ready. Our waitress then comes over with two plates and she tells us that they just told her they were out of wings and that they made one meal with wings, and another meal they decided upon themselves to make a plate of whiting fish with the two sides that were originally ordered with the wings. They should have told us the second they realized that they were out of wings so that we could order another meal on our own. It is extremely unprofessional to make someone wait for 45 minutes for their meal and then just bring them a plate of food that they decided to substitute. The waitress was not apologetic at all, and barely had anything to say. She said “There’s another location I don’t know if you wanna go there or not”. Extremely rude and unprofessional. I would have respected it more if they informed us that they were out of the food that we ordered, and would have been willing to order something else. However, I don’t appreciate them just bringing us over whatever they wanted. They also need to keep in mind that people have fish allergies. You can’t just assume that someone is going to eat whatever you make them. Will not return to this location.

Came here for brunch, decent little spot. Was busy and it seemed like they were short staffed which isn't a problem. Eggs cooked to order. The potatoes were mushy from being boiled and not all had the same consistency for the hash. Fun drinks.

I had an excellent experience with Kayla at Yolks on Us during my visit & her customer service was far more superior. Kayla was incredibly patient and knowledgeable, helping us quickly. She kept us informed on the food wait time the entire time and made us feel valued as a customer. I highly recommend Kayla as your waiter for providing truly top-notch service!

Server was named Brest waited an hour for some terrible food. Service wasn’t fast or responsive. If I took a picture they’d probably go out of business
