It was quiet and cozy, with a few tables and a bar. I was surprised that the cooking happens right out in the open, but at least you can see exactly what's happening. I don't eat flour or sugar so I was excited to get a stuffed baked potato for lunch, and I especially liked that I could customize it by getting the buffalo chicken and the veggies. My mom seemed to enjoy her food but I didn't ask her for details. And our server was fantastic!

Small spot. Thankfully we had part of our party there with a table…read more We ordered a Coney Island hotdog, NY hotdog, eggs and hash brown and toast, rooster omelet, turkey Rueben and small baby Greek salad and some coffees. The NY dog tasted better than the Coney dog. The coney didn't taste the way it was expected, but it had a lot of ground meat on it. The egg, hash brown and toast was as expected. The rooster omelet wasn't too bad. The turkey Rueben was okay, would have been better with kraut instead of creamy slaw. The Greek salad was so-so, nothing so special about it. The onion rings were good at least. The woman at the checkout gave me such a hard time for asking for a copy of the credit card receipt, she asked why the itemized isn't good enough. She told me if I want the credit card receipt, she's taking the itemized bill. I said I would still like a copy of both the itemized as well as the credit card receipt. She placed both back on the counter top with a bit too much drama. How lazy, rude, totally unprofessional and unpleasant was the checkout staff member. The table service and food was a 3. The checkout service was a big fat zero! The experience was ruined by one person here.

The restaurant is conveniently placed right next to a free 2-hour parking lot that had plenty of spaces open at 8:45am. We were promptly seated after walking in and greeted by our server. She brought us soda and coffee and then took our orders. My fiancé asked for a side of bacon to be on the rare side (flopping), but was told that the chef precooks some items, so he probably wouldn't be willing to make a fresh to order side of bacon. Our food came out really quickly, the side of French toast i ordered was delicious and a much larger size than i anticipated. My fiancé, who claims to be a "pancake connoisseur" said his Chocolate chip pancakes were amazing. The bacon fell short of expectations, but overall the meal was excellent. The prices on the menu aren't insane compared to the size and quality of most of the food items. I think a few tweaks to the aesthetics of the restaurant, and more flexibility by the chef would go a long way. Definitely come in if you're hungry, and looking to avoid breaking the bank for a great brunch.

The owner even came by and asked how things were and offered us some. Christmas cookies. I hope this Jackson staple is around after I am gone for future generations.

No wait to be seated, and the vibe is super laid-back--nothing fancy, just a classic, clean spot where locals clearly feel at home. My server was friendly and quick to take my drink order while I looked over the menu. I went with the hot turkey, and honestly, it hit the spot. The turkey was tender and juicy like it had been slow-roasted, and the gravy was rich and poured on generously--just how I like it. It tasted like something your grandma would make, in the best way. Food came out fast (maybe 10 minutes), and everything felt freshly made. I didn't try any sides or desserts this time, but I'll definitely be swinging back through if I'm in Jackson again. Feels like the kind of place that doesn't try to be trendy--it just does what it does well.
