Overpriced and low quality…read more Didn't expect much but the amount they charge for food is on the extreme end yet it is the same type of stuff any other coney would have, nothing fancy. However, even the regular food is not good quality. Tons of grease, mushed in with veggies and hash browns. No thank you, won't be back.

Parking lot gets quite packed and it's rather compact in some corner spots…read more Ela is waiting on us. Ordered loaded oats, fancy skillet with scrambled eggs, cubed potatoes and sour dough toast, turkey Rueben and Santorini salad with feta on the side. $61.48 Wait staff help each other out, making sure coffee mugs are topped and plates are taken away after finishing, since we have limited space on our table with so many plates. The turkey Rueben is okay, bread is soggy and I t definitely needed some thousand island dressing, it was too dry. The oats were good. The big Santorini salad is half of an entree salad to me and just a bit more than a side salad. Not sure it's $13 worth salad at all, looked rather sad lot. Maybe $7-$8 at most. The mixed greens are a bit old. Some nasty bits. I do prefer my onions more uniformly and thinly cut or diced for consumption. I had to discard several of the old wilted greens. The fancy skillet was good. The loaded oats is good as well.

Visited on a Friday afternoon. Tucked away into a plaza, next to Planet Fitness…read more Inside is very open and airy. Booths along with tables and chairs line the place with a counter in the back. Bathrooms are all the way down along the hallway to the left. We were greeted as soon as we walked in. Told to sit anywhere. Waitress asked if we've been there before we hadn't. She explained that they have a coffee menu in addition to full breakfast and lunch all day. Waitress was nice. She would check in on us throughout our stay. They had a special's menu and I went with the s'mores iced latte. It was served in a beautiful fluted glass. Topped with chocolate sauce and whipped cream. I really didn't get a lot of coffee flavor? It just tasted more like chocolate. Got the berryFrench toast. The French toast wasn't too thick bread wise. But also wasn't thin toast either, perfect sized toast. It was beautifully displayed, along with the compote and berry toppings. So delicious! Did not have the taste of it being cooked with 20 other menu items on a flat top. My husband got the bass omelette which included kielbasa. That was absolutely delicious! You do not see kielbasa a lot especially in an omelette. The kielbasa had a great smoky flavor and the omelette was a good portion. The tater tots were crunchy and flavorful. Our meal came out quick and hot and able to keep moving with our day.

I really don't know how that's possible unless everything was just premade and quickly heated. The food was decent.

The toast comes with an over easy egg but I asked for an over-hard egg on the side, which they were very accommodating and it was cooked perfectly.

The decor is simple yet inviting, the restaurant is was clean, and service was friendly. I can't wait to order my toast again!

There's a parking lot right there, making it easy to get in and out. We came in and a few staff members smiled and waved as he chose the table. The restaurant was bright, clean and about half full with people finishing up their orders. We were brought water, coffee and menus very quickly. Dad introduced me to the server, who was super friendly and chatty. Nearly every staff member had smiles and happy greetings for us. The menu is large. Given that they feed people all day, that's not surprising. The decision was difficult until I spotted a gyro omelette. Since I couldn't decide between breakfast or lunch, it was a perfect choice. It was super yummy and generously loaded with a lot of fresh ingredients. I enjoyed every bite, including the pickle wedge. Dad had one of the numbered plates with eggs, hash browns, toasted bread and sausage. He made all gone, too. That meal stayed with us until dinner, providing good fuel for the Dad-n-Daughter day ahead.

We came back to this restaurant for breakfast on a Sunday. While we likely missed the morning rush,…read morethe place was still packed with the last "shift" of diners. We were seated at a table recently made available and were given menus and water. The place was fairly loud and bustling with diners finishing up their late breakfasts. We opted for the Breakfast Special which included eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, and 2 other items - I chose pancakes and American Fries (basically fried scalloped potatoes). I also ordered coffee and was given the pitcher along with my filled mug. Breakfast arrived quickly and was really good. Portion sizes are moderate so I was full with only a bit leftover. Pancakes were fluffy and tasty and the rest of the meal was good - the sausage having been grilled before being served was nice and hot. The price for all of this was beyond reasonable and our server was very accommodating and nice - we will visit again!

They…read moredid seem short staffed tho (based on a comment one of the waitresses made) Honestly, it took them quite a while to take our order... I wasn't too annoyed but my parents hadn't eaten all day so they were a little annoyed (and there was an engagement party going on) We ordered quite a few things so here's my run down: - skip the rangoons - skip the Korean bowl entree (not pictured) - skip the shawarma burrito - skip anything that had rice honestly :/ - GET THE CHICKEN PARM!!! (With the Alfredo, it was so so good) - GET THE TROY CHEESESTEAK! So mad I didn't order it as my entree. - the pastas are good! Pretty solid choices. - Marsala came with very good mashed potatoes. - the truffle fries were delicious too!! - the ranch was delicious! /5 ** I deducted a point because of the wait & the rice being really bad. Other than that, I will come back.

No carry out for me, but my guest needed one. Now I want to say the customer service started off strong but towards the end, our waiter disappeared. We had to ask for the checks.

I want to come back here and I'm bringing the crew. Parking is scares so keep that in mind. They can accommodate large groups. They have a huge menu with plenty of options. I'll be back and I just might bring the crew with me.
