Prices on the menu are high. $12 for a pancake is much more than any other breakfast place around. I got the biscuits and gravy, which was actually one biscuit with gravy and very over cooked scrambled eggs. The biscuit and gravy were fine, but I couldn’t eat the eggs. My son got a pancake which he enjoyed. The server was great and quick. I was surprised by the 10% charge on the bill for food price offset. On the way out, I saw there was a Piece of paper on the door with a long explanation of the charge, but it was with a bunch of other signs so I had not seen it. It was nowhere on the menu, which would be the obvious spot to post it. I think these charges are deceitful. Nothing is stopping you from raising your prices, you just don’t want to because then people may order less. Instead, let’s sneak a charge on once it’s time to pay. I might be more sympathetic if they weren’t already charging such high prices.

It’s a gamble for the price. The first time my family came here we were very pleased with the food, I got a pancake and an eggs Benedict, my partner enjoyed the chicken fried steak. We took half the pancake home it was so big. We were excited to come back, but this time I was quite shocked when my plate arrived. I ordered their nacho Benedict with waffle fries. I was very confused when I cut into my poached eggs because it was so over cooked it was practically hard boiled. I order eggs Benedict everywhere I go and I have for my whole life, it’s my favorite food, and I have never had a poached egg be that over cooked, not one other time. I also did not taste any hollandaise sauce anywhere. I was pretty upset because I’m pregnant and I was really hungry, but for the first time in my life I decided to ask for a remake. The waitress was very understanding. I got the regular eggs Benedict the second time, and it was fine, they actually gave me a whole ramekin of hollandaise sauce to make sure I got enough, but I am just not blown away. My partner even commented that the hollandaise was very thin and it was not flavorful, and the home fries were good texture wise but not very flavorful either, I don’t believe they were salted. I am disappointed because we had such a good meal the first time we came. Unfortunately I just think that their menu is too expensive to take a gamble on. I will say my partner enjoyed his chicken breakfast sandwich.

Awful experience. We got takeout so it was too late to go back but my wife and I both got eggs Benny. There was no hollandaise sauce. The Canadian bacon was pretty much rotten and gross, the eggs were not runny and also had broken open upon receiving them and were just split open all over the place. Stayed across the street so seems convenient but for how much they overcharge I would not recommend this place. Very very terrible experience.
