Great little breakfast/ brunch restaurant. Food came out hot, and the server was great. Although it was super crowded, we were seated right away because we called ahead. Will definitely go back. It was a very nice experience.

Have never been here before so decided to try it for the first time. Wasn’t too packed for a Friday, service was amazing and the food came out quick, hot and fresh. Best tasting cinnamon toast cocktail I have ever had! Our server Hanna did great and took care of us. The only thing I can suggest is MORE GRAVY PLEASE Will definitely be back again!

Great service! Nice and clean spaces! The food is great! Plenty of parking! Easy to access from I-270 both bound! We were having a great time for the reasonable price of foods.

Dropped in at prime brunch time on a holiday. Waited about 15 minutes for a table which seemed very reasonable. Drinks and food both came out super fast. Large menu with a lot of variety. Spiked lavender lemonade was delicious.

They always do an excellent job with getting us seated and accommodating my mother-in-law’s many customizations and quirks. They have gluten free options and veggies. Lots of healthy meals to choose from and very flavorful, decadent pancakes.

My wife had already eaten here and liked it. I had the Lone Star Brisket Hash–tasty and very filling. Being in a strip mall doesn’t provide the best views.

I always come to this branch and genuinely like thier food! I also always get a to go salad for lunch and this time they did not add the chicken! I paid 11$ for a salad that’s just greens and some beans! I’m sorry but that’s not right. And the best part is there was a hair in it (see attached photo).They also put the salad in a cardboard box, which doesn’t seem right for a wet dish? Also, our experience today with our waiter was not the best. She was rude and didn’t seem like she was interested in waiting on us. Other than taking out order and bringing out our plates, we didn’t see her. I would recommend you definitely check your Togo order before you leave or visit another branch.

Bottom bread on sandwich was completely saturated-plate wet from the dishwasher? Idk. Wedding soup was SO salty I couldn’t eat it. I drank water. Hubby had something similar-bill was over $30…plus tip.
