Definitely a great way to start the day. The staff was so sweet! The food was awesome and the price was more than right. Go in with a good attitude and just enjoy the business.

Get here early on the weekends so you don't have to wait as long. They have expanded their dining space so you don't have to wait as long as you used to.

El Jefe is amazing - skip the menu and just order it. Sweet potato hashbrowns were also great.

I visited here on tour with a band. Foursquare highly recommended the place, and it was RIGHT! Get the sweet potato hashbrowns!

If you're going on Saturday morning, prepare for a 30+ min wait. Drink a cup of coffee before you leave home to avoid a massive headache ;) Love this place!

You may wait a bit to get in, but it's classic American breakfast. Delicious food, delicious prices, hipster staff. What more could you want?

Good breakfast. I had the Michelle which was very good. The only negative - the food was not real hot.

Well... basic fare. & if you can't hit 2x bits of toast with your scramble.... then you've been ripped off. Just sayin'...

Don't come here if you're in a hurry but it's the perfect place to spend a slow morning.

Unique menu with lots of vegetarian options.

get there early, especially on the weekends and Sunday or be prepared to wait.

Not going to lie people. Food is only "ok" and the service kinda sucks. Takes forever to get your food and you have to wave the servers down for help. Been here tons of times and its always the same.
