    Had brunch at this place yesterday with our family. The food was delicious, and our server was nice and friendly. He checked up on us constantly, and he was patient with us having two infants. It's family-friendly, and it's clean compared to other locations. Would recommend this one.

    Cinnamon roll pancakes

    This location is always amazing. The potato cakes are crispy and seasoned well. The blueberry pancakes with the blueberry buttery are phenomenal. Great service from Cortnay and very nice outdoor seating. Will be coming back to this location soon.

    This is a great little breakfast place in Irvington. Food is good. Service is good. They are typically always very busy, but with fresh squeezed orange juice. It kind of makes sense. Just a little diner feel a rectangle room with windows on one side. Nothing exciting but good enough.

    Blueberry Stuffed Pancakes

    Okay, call me old-fashioned, but I think a restaurant with the word pancake in it should have a decent offering of pancakes. Upon sitting down, it took me a minute to find the pancakes on the menu. FYI, they're on the back in the upper left-hand corner, and there aren't many listed. I went with the blueberry pancakes, which had fruit and an amazing blueberry butter on in. I don't like syrup on my pancakes, so I'm always looking for a pancake that has enough sweetness (or vanilla) in the batter as to not need anything else. Super fast service and my coffee cup was never more than half empty, even on a very busy morning with a lot of people in the restaurant. ...and even though they only had a few pancake listings, I was pretty happy with my choice. Perhaps (just perhaps) a pancake place can get by with only a few pancake items if they're all as good as what I had..

    In the heart of Irvington there's a cute diner on the corner, with great food and service. We love it at Lincoln square. The food is always so delicious and the servers are always helpful and kind. We we always be back!

    Eggs, hash browns, bacon, and sausage

    This location is the perfect place to go to brunch on a weekend morning. The fresh squeezed orange juice is outstanding and the hot chocolate is definitely a hit! Breakfast and lunch options are surely plentiful, and you can't really go wrong with your selection. For the purpose of our last visit, brunch, I ordered one of the breakfast platters which included bacon, sausage, hash browns, your choice of eggs and your choice of either french toast, pancakes, or biscuits, which I opted for french toast. I did not know that it would come with cinnamon butter, and I am so glad it did! My husband ordered the meat lovers skillet and I believe he added a few different veggies to it. He orders a skillet at nearly every breakfast/brunch place we go to (creature of habit) and stated that it was quite comparable to others he has had in the area. This was my first meal out since having a baby and we took her with us. There was not much room for her to be at the table in her carseat since the indoor seating area is quite small and compact. As for our service, our waiter did not check on us very frequently and our food took 30-45 minutes to be prepared which seemed like a longer wait time than usual. Knowing that it was the weekend, I will give them some grace since the food did come out hot and still tasted quite good.

    This place never disappoints! A handful of locations around Indy, but was at the Irvington location. Great waitstaff- the place was PACKED for breakfast on New Years Day and all the staff handled it gracefully. Food was fantastic as always! Never any complaints!

    First time here, super chill vibe area! Our server was super lovely! Had a group of 5 1/2 of us (my toddler being the 1/2) had a really great time that I totally forgot to take more pictures! Food was amazing. Hot, fast, our server was super attentive, n very polite! For sure a great spot to come out n eat!!!

    This is a chain place but I hadn't been to this location until recently. It's nestled onto the strip of Irvington next to the future home of scarlet lane brewing. I was very excited for a grilled cheese this time around. I'd been craving it all day and figured a diner type place would be the exact spot to get it. They had a pesto grilled cheese and you could add chicken. I opted to add chicken figuring it would just be a thin piece of chicken. What I was served was essentially a toasted chicken sandwich with a hint of cheese which was very disappointing. The for being a grilled cheese add chicken it was certainly a chicken sandwich with the thought of cheese. The bread was soggy. It tasted okay but don't bother with this entree. The fries were crispy and the pancakes slapped. I always add pecans!

The space is big and fun, with a large dining room, an old-school video arcade game, interesting art, and a big screen playing movies, which adds to the laid-back, quirky vibe. It's counter service with clear menu boards on the wall, making ordering easy. I had the cheesy jalapeño grits with bacon and an egg and... my goodness. So incredibly delicious. One friend ordered the same grits but swapped in fried catfish instead of bacon--also a fantastic choice. Our third went with a classic plate with eggs and bacon, and let me tell you, the bacon is thick and plentiful. We ordered a side of fries for the table and there were more than enough to share. Self-serve coffee with all the fixings is a nice touch, and the service was friendly and welcoming. Fun atmosphere, great food, solid portions--definitely will be back.

The food just needed a little fine-tuning to really shine. The catfish seemed to have a beer-battered coating that felt a little soft and held onto some extra moisture instead of having that classic light crunch. I would love a bit more flavor baked right into the waffle and biscuit dough--though the gravy flavor was definitely a win! Also, the grits lean heavy into jalapeno notes rather than a creamy, cheesy base. It's such a cute venue with great energy, and a few little kitchen adjustments could make it amazing!

We got our menus and put our drinks in... and then waited, and waited... I got a hot chocolate that wasn't even hot when I sipped it, and tasted pretty bland. My friends got coffees that they liked, but our waitress seemed so annoyed to be working there! She was very curt and I understand if you're busy, but maybe try for some customer service... We ordered our food (as did the table next to us) and waited soooo long, like 30+ minutes, and we were considering flagging down the wait staff to ask about it, but our waitress never seemed to even be around to ask questions... anyway, we finally got the food, and it was tasty, but I just don't think I would bother with this place again.

Everything was prepared well, came out pretty quickly. Our server, Ruth, was polite and effective. She engaged at just the right amount to make us feel welcome, without hovering. It's not inexpensive, but I do think fairly priced for today's economics, we spent $40-ish. If we lived near one of these would likely come in from time to time.

However, I was disappointed that a portion of the automatically added 20% gratuity will be going to Jess W. I expected better service, especially with gratuity already included. When I asked if I could purchase a side of hash browns, I was willing to pay the additional charge. Instead, I was told there "was only enough for the hash browns on the burgers." The response felt dismissive, and there was no effort to see if another option was available or to provide a more customer-focused explanation. I understand that menu items may have limitations, but good service is about how those situations are handled. Unfortunately, the level of service I received today did not meet my expectations.

Same great staff, same cool space, same open kitchen where a party of one like me can grab a counter seat and watch the chefs do their thing. I've honestly always enjoyed that part of the experience. Today I had the avocado toast with feta and an egg on top, and it totally hit the spot. Earlier this week I tried one of the newer menu items -- fried chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy, plus a sample of jalapeño cornbread and Asian slaw. Incredible comfort food. And as someone who normally isn't much of a slaw person, I was surprised by how much I loved it. They also tried to tempt me with the roast beef special, which honestly looked great, but at 10:30 in the morning I just couldn't fully commit to roast beef yet. Maybe next time. The new name is a nice tribute to the owner's mother, Arleen, but thankfully it still feels like the Milktooth so many of us have come to enjoy over the years. Definitely worth checking out if you haven't been in awhile.
