    Very family friendly and fun for a group of friends! Though, if you want some alone time, you can relax outside where its quiet and peaceful!!!

    One of my favorite breakfast/brunch places to go to in the Dallas area. Try the the sunshine - granola crusted french toast with sausage, bacon & eggs. French toast is perfect, seriously :)

    What's a smoking carrot and a smiling avocado share in common with the best dad ever? Having a fun date night! (Unless Pamela is not your daughter?) Then, skip the coffee mug. Thanks 4 posting! Enjoy!

    Breakfast and lunch menu both look great, too many good choices. Start with the carafe of Mimosa's for brunch! 😊 Service is outstanding.

    The cheese grits have a polenta consistency. Very savory and not overly cheesy. Eggs always cooked to perfection--your choice.

    The smoked bacon is my favorite but make sure you tell them if you like it crispy.

    The food here is fantastic. If you order a whole wheat pancake, be prepared for a very whole sheet pancake. Not very indulgent.

    It's all good here, but don't pass up the hummus; it's a perfect starter to share with the table, or a meal for one.

    Honestly? The huevos rancheros will make you brains explode until you have exploded brains. So order them.

    Seriously. Best huevos rancheros ever. They are best described as "bonerific". Try them.
