Gotta say had a great experience. After visiting Atlantic city hotels looked for breakfast spots in the area and randomly just picked this place and it DID NOT disappoint. From the moment we walked in till we left was greeted by such a lovely and friendly staff. All breakfast meals including our kids pancakes were delicious. 10/10 highly recommend.

The orders of home fries I thought were small and my sausage was one link. A larger breakfast type, but still surprising that it was only one.
