Visiting from Texas looking for breakfast. Consider plate sharing, 6 of us ordered (4 adults/2 children). The amount of food on each plate could easily serve 2. Everything was prepared as we requested. The service was great and the staff friendly. The restaurant was a bit dated, so could use freshening up. It was enjoyed by all.

Kayla was the best server I have had in a long time. I brought in a group of 7 and she handled everything so well. We were on a time crunch and she went above and beyond to fit our schedule. She was personable and great at her job.

We have been there many times, food is okay, service can be great depending on who you get. Today it was okay, but was disappointed that they don't allow you to buy extra back for cheese steak. Which had to much black pepper on it. Then I maybe got 20 fries on this huge plate. I was thier to have lunch with an old friend. Not our favorite place but an okay place.
