Our Guestbook
“ I had a great experience. I came in with a large group and we were accommodated without any issues. The service was super friendly and impressively quick, considering the size of our group. The food was delicious, and it seemed like everyone in my party really enjoyed their meals. I ordered pancakes with strawberries, a side of hash browns, and bacon. The pancakes were fluffy and airy. The hash browns weren't too greasy and were very tasty. The bacon was also good. Overall, I really enjoyed my time dining here. ”
“ Been here many times due to the great quality food. Not overly priced and so much variety! This place is amazing, but most importantly the service!! Ray is such an amazing waiter. Have had him serve us many times, and every time his attitude and work ethic is spectacular. He offers many suggestions and has never forgotten anything. He makes this experience a 12/10!!! ”
“ 1st time here and it was awesome, the service from the beginning to end was outstanding. The food was delicious and plenty! They are definitely not shy about portions. We ordered a meat lovers omelet with toast and a steak & mushroom skillet with pancakes. We also had a hot regular coffee and a Nutella iced late. Everything was great and we will definitely be back to try more food. ”
“ Where do I begin? My chai latte was fantastic. My girlfriend had one of their specialty coffees and thought it was only ok. However, the food was delicious. My eggs were light and fluffy, the hasbrowns were crispy, and the bacon was super flavorful. The pancakes can’t be forgotten though. 10/10. My girlfriend had the banana nutella French toast and said it was “delectable.” We will definitley be coming back. Also of note, our server was very friendly and attentive. Overall a great experience! ”
“ My mom suggested this restaurant for breakfast since I had never been here. It was delicious! I had pancakes, crisp bacon, crispy hash browns and amazing scrambled eggs. My mom had the Spartan omelet and we of course had coffee. The atmosphere was great. The service was exceptional. I will definitely come back when I’m back in town to see my mom. ”
“ As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by the smell of fresh pancakes, breakfast, and coffee filling the air. We were seated right away with no wait, and our waiter was quick to greet us, bringing coffee and water immediately. Our order arrived at the table in about 10 minutes. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients, and every bite was packed with flavor and deliciousness. ”
“ very kind and quick service! I had the jalapeno burger and the jalapenos were so much hotter than I expected, but it was good. soup comes in a larger serving than i expected and tastes amazing. good value for the price! also the Chai tea late is very good! ”
“ Five stars just isn’t even enough. I cannot recommend this restaurant more highly. The food is incredible, and every single person who works there is an absolute treasure and is honestly so fantastic at what they do. When we are there, we really feel like we are among friends. Everyone is so warm and welcoming. We always sit in Ray’s section and we love him so much. He’s 100% on top everything, even through their busiest times, and he takes such great care of us! At this point he feels like a good friend and we look forward to our time there so much. The service everyone provides is so, so good! I’m not sure who does the hiring or where they find such great people....but the people who work there really are all so special. We have never had any food there that wasn’t absolutely delicious either! The kitchen is truly fantastic and they really have their sh#t together! The food is fresh and hot, and comes out so fast, and is always cooked to perfection. Every time I think I have found my new favorite thing there, I try something else and have a new favorite. It’s all so good! I also really love that when you look over and see them cooking the food, while you can tell they are working so hard, they are always smiling and seem like they are enjoying each other and like they are really enjoying what they do. I really feel like that translates into the food. Really, this is the best restaurant ever. I hope you’ll go check it out! ”
