Customer Reviews
Where to start?! First, the customer service is great! The servers and hostess are extremely nice. I even heard the cook and bus boy interacting with customers. The food is good. They don't overseason their food either. Since I can't consume too much salt, that works for me. I ordered the fajita skillet with fried chicken instead of grilled. It tastes better like that. Oh and their orange juice is freshly squeezed! That right there is top tier! None of that from concentrate or watered down garbage we've been accustomed to at other establishments. I will gladly pay $4.99 for a glass of fresh squeezed oj, than what they give you at McDonald's. This is my 3rd time coming since I moved here and it is my favorite spot. Definitely coming again!
Nice diner. A lot of options. Breakfast all day. Competitive pricing, and very clean. I had their French Dip sandwich and fries. It was really well-prepared, the meat moist and soft, not overcooked. The aus jus was the perfect salty, liquid side to enhance the item's flavor upon dipping. One of my colleagues ordered a cheeseburger with French fries. He enjoyed it, and it looked like a traditional burger at a chain-style restaurant. The other person I was with ordered breakfast - eggs over easy, hash browns, and biscuits and gravy. He thoroughly enjoyed the meal. If I was in this town again, I would not hesitate to visit this establishment again.
I had a great breakfast experience overall. The food was amazing and hit the spot, and our waitress was very attentive and friendly throughout the meal. The bacon was a little overcooked for my taste, but it didn’t take away from an otherwise really good meal. I’d definitely come back again.
We went on Sunday morning for breakfast, and it was hard to find parking. My other friends ended up using the parking lot of the other building beside it. I had to circle multiple times to wait for others to leave. We had to wait for 10 to 15 minutes. There wasn't really a waiting area. The waiting area was upfront with chairs. You give your name, and then they call it when you are ready to be sat down. The place was super busy. The server was very friendly and interactive. The food arrived fast and fresh. The staff did a great job cleaning as soon as there was an empty plate or glass. Mimosas were amazing, especially when they used freshly squeezed orange juice.
Food is really good. My wife and I are coffee snobs and the coffee left alot to be desired. They didn't have real 1/2 and 1/2. Service was pretty good and wr will definitely ho back.
