This is my favorite breakfast/lunch spot on the weekends. Sometimes during the week (they deliver after 10am). The food is always great and the people that work here are AMAZINGGGG! They always make you feel like you're part of their family. We love to get a cup of their soup. Their cream soups are my favorite. Can't beat any of the breakfast items. You won't be unhappy with anything you get from there. We love cornerstone!!! read more

Came here for Mother's Day breakfast. We were seated right away and served very quickly. My husband and son had the omelets which looked good and I had a vegetable Panini. Our server, Kristen, was so great and kind. I would come back just because of her. We all enjoyed our time here and will be back again soon. read more

This was a difficult rating. Do I give it a 4 or a 5? The service was good. My waitress (I think her name was Jean) was quick polite funny and had a great smile. Definitely felt comfortable and right at home within 2 seconds. She was really quite charming. The food was definitely great but was it the best ever? This was going to be a tough call. My sausage was delicious, my bacon, crispy. My hash browns were crispy and crunchy yet chewy and and heavy on the yummy. My omelet (3 meat combo) with American cheese was quite good. In fact so good that I didn't use ketchup. So back to one of life's most profound questions. A 4 or a 5? Very good or Amazing? That's when I met her. Miss pancake. Now she wasn't much to look at on the outside. Standard build and coloring sitting on my plate. Not drawing much attention to herself. A humble comrade to her friends that I had consumed but when my lips touched hers it was electric. Probably the best damn pancake I ever ate. Fluffy yet a slight crunch but it was the flavor that did me in. There was something in the pancake. Was it magic? Crack? I don't know but it was wonderful and I will be back. So yes. Yes indeed. A 5 it is. read more

Ordered over-easy eggs and corn beef hash with hash browns. Only complaint is the eggs were too small. I like big flowing egg yolks, and these eggs were not bringing it.

Located in a small plaza with 7-11 and a few other small stores, we were greeted right away upon entering. There were a few customers but it was not packed which meant we got a booth, yay. The waiter informed us of the specials, most of which I hesitate to order at a diner: paella, octopus, steak, etc. The menu is plentiful with the usual items as well as more Spanish dishes like empanadas, Spanish breakfast, etc. The Italian vegetable panini with salad was not bad but it was odd that the salad had the same ingredients as the panini (sans portobellos), leaving the while dish feeling one note. The burger was the typical diner burger. Overall pricing was okay, given rising costs, though some of the entrees were $25-30+, which i wouldn't do. I wonder what the Spanish dishes would have tasted like because perhaps those are their stars. Service was attentive, though it felt like they were trying to make this more into an elevated experience vs. what it was. I did like the bathrooms a little better than other diners, and I felt pretty comfortable in the little restaurant space.

I guarantee this is the exact same stuff they serve on spaghetti. They just throw some cheddar on it and serve it next to some chips. Pretty bad. Other than that, not bad. Again, should have gotten the omelet

My nephew was visiting from out of town and wanted to come here as he always remembered loving their penne Ala vodka, which he did enjoy. My mother on the other hand decided to order the Short Rib special that was written on the chalk board at the hostess stand. She got maybe two bites in, noted it was cold and the when she cut into the center it was frozen solid, as in I can see the freezer burn ice in it. Yikes! We called over the waiter who apologized and offered to bring something else out. She chose the Rumanian Steak, that came out nice and cooked. Obviously the rest of us were finished eating. She ate a bit and decided to pack it up. The waiter then brings over a piece of Flan as an apology, very nice. (Not all of us are flan fans but still a nice gesture). Now we get the check. They not only charged us for her meal but charged for the steak which was $40 vs the $27 frozen special. We asked to speak to the manager and he said it was a misunderstanding and would change it to charge it for the $27, fine I wasn't going to argue, he was nice about it. They ended up taking the meal off completely. It's a shame that these employees have to deal with the bad decisions and of the owners and head chef/kitchen manager. I will not be returning but wish the best for the staff.

After our visit, we decided to walk around town. There were a lot of restaurants open, but they mostly empty. The Breakfast & Burger Club seemed to be really busy. That being said, I figured it must be a good place to eat. We sat down at a table in the restaurant. The server came over with menus and water. We decided to share a Chicken Cobb Wrap along with a Root beer. The IBC Root beer was good. Anyway, it took a very long time for our order to come out. While we were waiting for the food, I noticed a strong smell of cooking oil. The server kept apologizing for the wait. The order finally came out. We were so starving at that point. The wrap tasted very dry, so unlike any Cobb salad. There was no avocado, no bacon etc... In addition, the fries were soggy and cold. I took a good look at the wrap and it had to be a Chicken Caesar wrap. My bf thought the same thing. There was no sense in sending it back, since we already ate some of it. We were charged for a Cobb salad wrap $17.45. However, the Caesar wrap was the same price, so we didn't bother saying anything. The male server and root beer were the restaurant's only highlights. Street parking is available.

Though the selection included a broad selection of Hispanic choices, it was equally inclusive of all-American choices. I liked the selection a lot. I liked everything about this place, from each server, to the menu, the prices, the cleanliness, and the overall pride this family seems to take in their business.
