This was our first time at this restaurant and it will not be our last. We came from out of town to attend a graduation and decided to have breakfast before heading out. My niece lives in Spokane and has never been, so it was a great experience for her also. The service was excellent. My mom broke her leg and was in a wheelchair. They were very helpful it getting us a table to accommodate her. The food was delicious! No complaints from us.
