According to the long timer who was manning the door, it’s typical for there to be a line out the door. Scan the QR code by the entrance (or he may offer you a menu) so you can an educated consumer. Don’t be like the...Read More

First time here, great food and omelets were spot on.Sausage gravy was kinda "plain" and needed more sausage and/or pepper to add flavor.Really quick service and great staff, we will be back again.

Food was amazing! Service and atmosphere felt like starbucks, streamlined and not really personable.Vegetarian options: They don't allow substitutions, so if there is meat in the meal you have to get it that way.Dietary restrictions: They don't allow substitutions.
