    I'm not a pancake eater and I avoid carbs but I stopped in here for a quick cup of coffee one day and thought I'll "try" a pancake out of curiosity. OMG! The buttermilk flair is OUT OF THIS WORLD! Seriously. BY FAR THE BEST PANCAKE I've ever had in my life. The thick cut smoky bancon, whipped butter and a cup of REALLY GOOD COFFEE was all a welcome surprise I wasn't expecting. I'm a California girl who doesn't eat carbs! But this is well worth the splurg! ABSOLUTKEY DELICIOUS! I'm hooked!

    I had the most disgusting sandwich I think I've ever had in my life there. The veggie melt. Thin and fragile wheat bread slathered in warm mayonnaise with undercooked zucchini and flavorless tomatoes. Even though I was hungry, I couldn't make my way through this atrocity. Service was great though so bonus star. Careful what you order here!

    Very average breakfast. If your sick of waiting in line at Walker Bros then come here where I'm pretty sure you won't have to wait.
    We sat outside at one of two tables and had good, friendly quick service.
    My Denver omelette was good, you know ok, average, nothing to write home about. The hit on my plate was the potatoes. My wife omelette was stuffed with spinach and not enough feta for her liking. Myself, that sounds and looks like a terrible combination. Simply 3 stars A-OK

    I can't lie - I have some damn high brunch standards, so when horchata french toast pops up on the specials menu and I order it, I expect more than just some cinnamon powder on top of some regular ass french toast.

    Sadly, that's what I got, and explains this place in a nutshell.  Just ok, cash only, and in the end expect to have your convo interrupted so they can grab the check off your table and count their tip in front of you.  Good times.

    The food is ALRIGHT, I've definitely had better and certainly had worse. I would have considered coming back however the owner was incredibly harsh and rude. I understand breakfast is busy on the weekend, but it does not warrant poor treatment of paying customers. On top of it all, FLIES and NO AC.
