After reading all the great reviews this place had and on the recommendation of a friend, I had brunch there this past Sunday. Yes, this was the Sunday before Christmas but the first thing I noticed was the extremely young staff working there, there was a pair of 20 yr olds in the kitchen cooking. The place only had a few guest so the four of us sat down and got coffee/tea and placed our orders. I was a bit alarmed when the waitress did not seem to know the menu. After waiting what seemed to be an eternity (someone mentioned that there was a notice ""Please be patient, all the food is prepared from scratch"") we got our food. Four orders and not a single one looked good, it was edible but we could have made this at home, minus all the grease. I had the steak and eggs, the steak was loaded with grease, the kind you get when they neglect to clean the grill top. Another person had eggs with an order of bacon, it came out deep fried and burn black. Waitress acknowledged it did look burnt and inedible, so they quickly deep fried another one for us. Funny how she didnt notice this when she dropped it off 10 seconds earlier. For those that received their toast (either mine did not come with it or she neglected to write it down) it included a heaping tablespoon of butter to go with it. Each order came with French Fries, which tasted freezer burnt to me. I would have preferred home fries but I guess the kids in the back assumed everyone would rather have french fries. When we checked with our friend that recommended the place, they mentioned the owner cooked the food the first time they went there but the second time they went it wasnt as good. Will I ever go back? Never.
Pros: Very hard to think of any. Ambience was nice.
Cons: Greasy food, young cooking staff in the kitchen, had to share the sugar jar with the table next to us.
