We had to wait an hour and 20 minutes before being seated. Then we waited quite awhile before I went to register to pay because a bill was never brought to our table.

My wife's bacon was supposed to be crispy (it was not) and my cheeseburger had a slight tang to it which I'm not sure was intentional.

Crowded on Sundays mornings for a reason. Great breakfast and lunch items. Never had a bad meal there. Wait staff is efficient and friendly. Food is excellent and reasonably priced. Not ideal for large groups unless you go at slower times.

Server did not get our order correct and argued with us about it. They also don't know the difference between an omelet and a scramble. Was not a good visit BUT every previous visit was fine.

Our server was very attentive and pleasant. Food came out in in a timely manner and hot. We had huevos rancheros which was topped off with green chili beef which was very good. Also had an angus beef sandwich which was awesome. Only negative is I ordered onion rings and they were not available. Will visit again.
