Just went to this place for the first time today. A Sunday at 11:30, the place was busy. I waited about 10 minutes for a table, which was less than I expected. The foyer has great family diner appeal, being papered with dozens of colored "Egg and Us" coloring book pages which had been colored in by kids. There were a lot of families with young kids there, but the crayons in a mug on every table kept them occupied and quiet. There was a great atmosphere in the place. Waitstaff was friendly and prompt. Our food took a while to arrive, but not overly long for how busy it was. I ordered the "Migas" scramble, which was quite tasty. The hash browns served with it tasted much better than they looked. The portion was generous and I was able to make a second meal of it later. Throughout the meal we were attended to frequently and courteously. The waitresses were really nice and I was never for want of anything. My only complaints are that my food was warm, but not hot. I think it was sitting for a while before it came to the table, but it was very edible and I liked it a lot despite that. Also, the glass my mimosa came in was dirty, and the drink itself was pretty pricey. My husband ordered a non-alchoholic drink, but still the cost of our drinks combined made up almost 1/3 of our total bill...yikes! They did offer free refills on the Arnold Palmer, but it seemed watered down. Overall, I had a pleasant experience there and will go again to try some of their sweet breakfast foods like pancakes or waffles. Ill stick to water though, as its not the most budget friendly place. Definitely a great alternative to Dennys or IHOP for this style of food. Grade: B+ would recommend to people who enjoy breakfast foods in a casual setting.

Took my kids here on a busy Saturday morning around 10AM. We were seated promptly, provided menus, and I was offered coffee immediately (Yes, please!). It showed up promptly, and so did our waitress, Jill. This was my first visit. I was impressed with the menu. Great variety of breakfast items, from your standard offerings of eggs, omelettes, pancakes, et all, all the way up to Belgian Waffles and a variety of southwest/mexican dishes. Both of my kids ordered the Belgian Waffles and loved them (even the picky one). I tried the California Burrito, which was excellent and quite filling. I was offered a choice of fresh fruit or hash browns. I opted for the latter, which we very good. Every entree came with a slice of orange, which was ripe, flavorful and juicy. Service was all but flawless. I was pretty impressed with that, given how busy they were. The kids orders showed up first, with mine right behind. They kept my coffee cup full. Ill definitely be back for a return visit.

Came in for lunch with my wife. Was greeted and seated promptly, given drinks and then left for 5-10 minutes until we asked for a server to place our order. My wife ordered a chicken salad and it came without the seasoning. I ordered an Omelette and it came with toast but without butter. Upon our request, the server brought the seasoning and "butter". However, it was margarine and I returned it, asking for real butter. So I was brought a few small cold butter packs like the type you get in a hotel. Another server came by and asked if all was OK, I asked if the butter could be softened and she took it and came back with the butter totally melted into a liquid substance. At that point I gave up and just said "OK". The server left my diet coke unrefilled for most of the meal and then towards the end refilled it with sweet tea. Oh well, I guess they look alike. The food itself? pretty good, but not worth the poor service that comes along with it.

The best part of the restaurant is the menu Its got a great selection and then ..you order. Service was piss poor and I believe it was the manager that served us. I ordered two eggs over medium toast bacon and fruit also a side of avocado. The eggs were ok a little over cooked but not bad the toast was barely toasted, bacon was over cooked dry as a bone, fruit was a good size serving but 99% melon only two quarters of a small strawberry and two pieces of pineapple. They do actually have other fruit as it was going past me on other orders waffles with raspberries, blueberries and bananas. You would think you could get a raspberry and a couple blueberries maybe a bit of banana thrown in as for the side of avocado it was brown and hard. I ordered a coke with breakfast even it was off the mixture must have been at the end of its syrup asked manager/server to take it off the bill. This restaurant is just barely trying.

Ive never had a bad meal here. The food is excellent and the staff is very friendly. Full disclosure... Ive never eaten inside because it is frequently busy, so busy in fact that the line often reaches outside the door or its hard to step inside. Every time Ive eaten their great food, Ive ordered take out. If you are a frequent take out eater you may be accustomed to arriving home and realizing your order is incorrect or something is missing. This has never occurred for me nor my fiance when ordering Take out here and weve ordered in the his manner more times than I can count it care to admit. Recently I met the manager who Id never previously seen nor encountered, yet he knew me based on my orders and the fact Id never eaten inside. That made me feel special and its what will keep me ordering and one day hopefully eating inside.

My girlfriend and I were looking for a new breakfast spot and stumbled across this place. I ordered the California burrito and she had had the swedish pancakes, both of which were not that memorable if it werent for the fact that I felt the immense need to nap in order to quell the gut bomb that they made. Overall it was pretty bland and forgettable really, I know now why were the first to rate and review this place because it felt like we were in an Old Country Buffet. Senior citizens as far as the eye could see, all of which probably think Google is some sort of new fangled dance move.

Was expecting more for a restaurant with 4.5 rating. I never send food back but my chicken fried steak was completely soggy, the texture of a dish sponge. Obviously a premade frozen affair but it was bad even for that. With these high ratings and how busy this place appears this cant be the norm. The server was very friendly and talked to the manager, the fact that the manager didnt come out to discuss the issue leads me to believe they were not interested in feedback. Left with a half empty stomach and the taste of regret in my mouth.

My boyfriend and I have eaten at this establishment 3 times now, 2 times I had the chicken fried steak and eggs and just recently I had the sweetish pancakes also taste tested my boyfriends corn beef hash all 3 times I have been there the service has been amazing and the food is scrumptious! The coffee is pretty tasty too and never ending. I love this place its cute, filled with plants and just out side of the windows there are bird feeders so you can watch all of the cute little chirpy birds eating along with you.
