Literally the worst biscuits and gravy I've ever had in my life, the gravy was extremely underwhelming and not made right in the biscuits were old, and it was way overpriced for the quality.

One of the worst restaurant experiences in recent memory… We met friends who had both heard good things and who lived close by.. We 4 ordered, and 45 minutes later, our server returned and said, they lost your order in the kitchen… Well, having worked in restaurants as a kid, and also I’ve owned and operated many of my own retail businesses, I know how “things can happen “… So we al reordered the same things and after another 30 minutes we asked another restaurant server to check on our food as our friends had to get to another event, and now after an hour and a half, we were starting to wonder… The food finally arrived, 90 minutes after we’d first ordered with no apologies , and my hamburger was honestly the worst thing I’ve ever tried to eat… We just gave up and left with literally a bad taste in our mouths.. Awful experience…

If you have all the time in the world and don’t care to ever get your food then you should definitely consider this place. It’s also very dirty, with sticky floors and tables and of course the terrible service.

There were tables available but the waiter just kept ignoring us. We waited for 10 mins and had to leave. There were no greetings even if the staff passed us multiple times. However the group in front of us were seated fairly quick. They were white. I will never go to this place again.

Great tasting food, but for an $18 breakfast burrito, I’m pretty disappointed with how small it is

The corn beef hash is the reason I adore this spot so much! Love love love it! So comforting and nostalgic... corned beef is always moist and the texture is just right. Some things are hit or muss, my husband was not a fan of the French toast and that's his favorite go to. All in all, cute little café and decent options for breakfast/brunch

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.
