    Visited my friend in San Antonio and this is one of her favorite breakfast spots. I always see…read morepictures of her cinnamon roll pancakes, so I was gearing to gobble some down. It was popping when we got there, so we had about a 25 minute wait. It took them a little while to take our order, but once they did, the food was made and delivered in a timely manner. I, of course, got the cinnamon roll pancakes short stack, and they were absolutely divine. No need for butter or syrup, they were perfectly delicious as is, cinnamon swirl included?!? and icing glaze as well. Another favorite was the chile relleno omelette - the poblano pepper on top added some smokiness along with the steak, and the sour cream and cheese cooled it down. Bacon and canadian bacon on point. A solid breakfast spot! Don't miss out on the cinnamon roll pancakes! *Cinnamon Roll pancakes, short stack *Cowboy Breakfast: eggs, biscuits with country gravy, bacon *Chile Relleno Omelette: fajita steak, green peppers, onions, tomatoes, & cheese, topped with ranchero sauce, sour cream, green onion, feta cheese *Pancakes & Eggs: 2 cinnamon roll pancakes, scrambled eggs, sausage *Sides: grilled ham, bacon, hash browns

    I'm glad I gave them another try. I dined here a few months ago and didn't enjoy the food as much…read moreas I would have liked. But today, it was a success! Fried Green tomatoes - 10/10 Grits - 10/10 Praline Bacon - 10+++ Avocado - 10/10 Biscuits - 9/10 Scrambled Eggs w/Cheese - 6/10. After all that cheese and cajun seasoning, they were still tasteless. I added black pepper and it helped. My chai latte with oatmilk and a little caramel topped the meal off. Oh, and I ordered some beignets to-go. I remember those being good. I got 3 classics and 1 stuffed with peaches and cream. The music was a mixture between jazz, r&b, and a little funk. It added a nice touch on this rainy morning, especially jamming to James Brown. The hotness was friendly and looked like she was ready for her day. And Sara, our waitress, had a nice disposition early in the morning. She was pleasant, friendly, and efficient.

    Our party was late for our reservation but they were so kind and still held our table. We went on a…read moreSaturday morning and it wasn't too bad. Those who came early sat at the bar and ordered coffee and if you signed up for text messages you get 15% off which was nice. I got the NOLA brunch plate and tried the mixed beignets. The NOLA plate was good, but super duper heavy. The praline bacon is tasty and nicely sweet, the eggs with seasoning was probably my favorite part. The grits were good just super filling. The fried green tomato was also yummy just a bit salty. Overall 7.5/10 The mixed beignets came with four, a lemon one, chocolate, plain and flavor of the month which was a strawberry jam with sprinkles. Strawberry jam was terrible, a sin to beignets. It's just too sweet and oozes out (2/10). Lemon was okay just a bit too tart (5/10). Chocolate was surprisingly good; it tasted like warm mexican hot chocolate (7/10) Plain will always be my favorite though (8.5/10) even if this one is a bit doughy! Service was good especially for our large party! The interior is gorgeous with great natural lighting.
