    Classic diner that's arguably best for breakfast/brunch. Minnesotan omelette and all benedicts are delicious. Oh, and portions are enormous!

    For $10.50, you might expect a hearty, textured corned beed hash with flakes of slow-cooked meat ... But the pancakes are delicious!

    Country Fried Steak and Eggs, Add 1 Egg scrambled, English muffin, hash browns extra crispy. If extra hungry add andouille sausage patty, maybe the Carmel Pecan roll...ahhh

    Get any kind of sauce on the side otherwise your food will be drowning in it. Tasty stuff! Although, the hash browns are always disappointing.

    The new manager, Juan, is awesome! He used to be a cook in the back for 7yrs, and was recently promoted to manager. Be nice to him because he's a cool guy.

    If you come after bar rush two people are not allowed to occupy a 4 person booth, but are allowed to occupy a four person table because "you can fit more in a booth." That "logic" makes my brain hurt.

    The food is good and service is awesome but that's a B.S. special. They will NOT honor their three check-in special. Liars.
