Reviews
"We had a very disappointing breakfast at another restaurant where we left hungry. We decided to give this place a try and were more than satisfied. Walking in We were greeted by the owner and waitress. Everyone was beyond polite. The food looked and tasted delicious. The atmosphere was simple and calming. I have no complaints whatsoever. This will be our go to breakfast place from now on."
"Cant believe this place has been here 2 years and I had no idea. It's nice to have biscuits and gravy that isn't the white instant, bland gravy most places have. The potatoes were a nice change from other places as well. The eggs were well made, as well as scrambled could be. My ham side was huge and will make a nice sandwich later. Just wanted to help put this little tucked away spot on the map."
"Took my in-laws and my toddler here to try out the breakfast and BOY it did not disappoint! My in-laws are picky, and they commented the entire meal about how homemade everything tasted, from the biscuits to the gravy to the French toast and WOW the sausage! I ate my entire meal and even polished off the rest of my father-in-laws! The waitress was warm, welcoming, and prompt with every part of her service. The head chef/owner came out during our meal to make sure we were enjoying everything, and that spoke volumes for this amazing business! Would recommend to anyone and we will be back!"
"Wait staff 5/5 ⭐️: our waitress was great, super friendly, kind and apologetic. Taste of food 3/5 ⭐️ : food was so so we ordered the big Dan and the bacon skillet. Food portions were small, we left hungry. The taste of the food was fine like nothing to write home about. Bacon was wasn’t the greatest, the potato slices were really good just wish there were more of them. Too much gravy and was a stringy consistency like mucusy. Eggs were good. Wait time 1/5 ⭐️ : we waited 45 minutes for our food, finally the gentlemen came over after 40 minutes of waiting and apologized that they were short handed, appreciated that. However, would have preferred to be told when we came in that wait times for food would be 30-40 minutes so we could have made the decision to wait or go somewhere else. Atmosphere 1/5 ⭐️ : we almost left after we noticed the ceilings were leaking and there were puddles of water on the floor. Could have cleaned up the water or at least put a bucket as the floors were super slick to begin with. Cost of food to portions 2/5 ⭐️: food portions were really small, we left hungry. $40 which included tip, 2 breakfast plates and water. I understand that it’s expensive to run a business but your patrons should never leave hungry ordering a $15+ meal for breakfast. Include more potatoes or bread or something to fill people up. Not sure if we will be back, just wasn’t worth the wait for the food we ordered. Maybe will try again in a few months and see if we just hit a one off day."
"Steak and grits could make you want to lick the plate!! These are real Southern grits! The steak was super tender and wonderful flavor! Service staff were kind and efficient. This is a must stop even after the crack of dawn. We’ll be back … my son might try the pancake contest."
