I got the burritos twice over a year. And the utter disappointment every time is an understatement. This place just doesn’t have good food. Chace’s pancake is down the road. I would just go there.

Fresh, fluffy, sky-high biscuits made my day. Housemade corned beef hash was excellent. Service was friendly and efficient. Atmosphere is basic, but welcoming. We'll be back next time we're in town.

A hidden gem for breakfast or brunch!! As soon as you step in the resturant, you are welcomed by all their friendly staff. Meal options are great and cooked to perfection. From the time you enter and up until you leave, this place makes you feel like you're a family friend who they have been excited to see! What a lovely brunch spot!

What a sweet gem of a local restaurant. Great, homestyle cafe food tucked away in a little strip mall. We had breakfast and it was excellent!

Very friendly owner and server. Adequate portion sizes and good quality food.

The food was okay. I feel like the portion is little bit small and cold. However, the service was better.

If you’re ordering delivery from here save your money! Total rip off, paid $20 for a corned beef had breakfast meal. I received a country fried steak with two eggs. No hash browns or toast. I’m sure they don’t treat their customers like this when dining in… or at least I hope. I don’t recommend

Ordered from “Toasty’s Breakfast Burritos” through DoorDash, which is apparently operating at this location. You guys have forgotten the salsa on my orders 4 out of the 4 times I’ve ordered here…what is the deal?
