Instagram worthy plates. First time going here in person. The food has always been good on uber eats/doordash, but def 1000... times better right from the kitchen. Big portions, cooked perfectly. There are plenty of options on the menu, but not so manyyou're overwhelmed. The service was friendly, and fast. The decor is fun, def coming back to try the dessert sometime. Sat atthe counter, it had a good amount of personal space, and was very clean, everything else you need was in arms reach(condiments/napkins etc.) If I were closer I would probably just stop in for a coffee or lunch more often.

Food is fresh and tasty. There is sometimes a wait Due to the popularity of this place. But it's well worth the wait. Today I... ordered a breakfast sandwich which I changed the brioche bun for sourdough and it was a bit dry... Next time I'll order it theway they have it on the menu. Read more

PLENTY of options - breakfast/lunch/dinner. Servings are large and fresh. I got the volcano and the pancakes taste great but... were a little overdone. Cool gifts up front for little ones - and the desert counter for yourself! Read more

The food was good, the service was OK, the delay on one of the plates bothered me a little. When we arived there was a 25-45 min... wait, so we waited. I love that you can see your position for a table on the link they send you. They brought out my husband'sand my plate first, my daughters plate was delayed. By the time they brought her plate out my husband was pretty much doneeating, you can see on one of the pictures I took. Other than that it was good. Read more

I was in the mood for some American homestyle food and nothing is more homestyle than pot roast! Look at the size of this!... This is just one meal, folks! And the desert? It's huge too! I had to take my salad and desert home, because I was toofull! So was it good? The pot roast was a bit dry, but otherwise it was good, not salty, and the apple pie was delicious. Theservice was fantastic, the menu is huge and the prices are great too! Read more
