  Nooooooo Waaaay! I cannot believe the reviews on YELP for this establishment. I won't even call it a restaurant!
  
  This is our first time here. We were welcomed at the door very enthusiastically. It actually was overwhelming for my wife. I came out from the restroom and my wife was eating from the buffet. She said that she felt pressured to go to the buffet. She regretted it! Me, I asked for the menu.
  
  Her eggs were not yellow, the bacon was rubbery, and her dough dough toast was actually Texas toast. ALL of her food was cold.
  Ordering from the menu I had 2 fried eggs and pancakes that were hot. The bacon was horrible and the sausage links were really cold.
  The manager asked how was the food I told her about the cold sausage and I could not believe how she replied. "Just tell your server and she will take it to the back and zap it. We do it all the time that is why people keep coming back." WHAT??? Why s this the expected norm??
  
  I took a picture of probably the scariest men's bathroom I have seen in this hemisphere.
  
  The good reasons why they got 2 stars.
  1. Attentive waitress
  2. Really good coffee and plenty of it
  3. Sidney who cashed us out. She was very pleasant and genuinely sorry for our experience. She took 20% off the ticket which I told she didn't have to do. I think she was shocked that I tipped the waitress. None of this was her fault.
  
  My wife's final comment was that "the food was old and cold. The oil needed to be changed out in the kitchen."
  
  Definitely NOT going back!!!

  Everything is always cooked perfectly to order. It's a greasy spoon, but when you're in the mood for it, their breakfast will hit the spot.
  And, as much as I love pancakes (which they do very well), their french toast is so yummy it is hard to decide which one to order because both are so good - pancake or french toast, the ultimate breakfast dilemma. The coffee is a little weak, but the pancakes and french toast more than make up for it.

  Breakfast buffet wasn't good at all. The waitress did make up for it by getting me fresh pancakes which I LOVED!!! Will be coming back for the waffles and pancakes !!!
