    When we get there I was wonder what I'm getting it For breakfast when I see the menu I noticed chorizo but it was made from sausage and egg which me and My Wife we don't eat any meat made from pork so I made a special request if she can give me something with chicken and beef and she was extremely easy-going person and she except it after that young waitress brought us vegetables soup and tortilla chips with almost boiling hot sauce I was really surprised with that starting  for breakfast .
    What a surprise start , unbelievable this stuff tortilla chips hot sauce and vegetables soup very delicious after that we received the main breakfast,
    I want to be honest one of the best when I test  the price , also nice service .

    This place rocks! Great and attentive service. They also serve a free cup of homemade soup with your meal and it makes for a great appetizer. Most importantly, the food tastes good.

    If you like Taylor Swift, they have a tv in the corner playing her music videos.

    For those who have celiac and/or issues with gluten, their fries are the only thing put in their fryer. No breaded stuff. So you don't have to worry about cross contamination. As someone that loves fries but can hardly ever eat them at restaurants due to my gluten intolerance, it's very exciting to be able to have them again.

    The place was full when we got there, but no line. It took maybe 5-10 minutes to take our drink/meal order.

    Our food order:
    1 kid's waffle with fruit
    1 Mac n cheese kid's pancake with scrambled egg
    1 house special (2 scrambled eggs, 4 sausage, beans, pico, sour cream, 4 flour tortillas)

    The kitchen was just running super slow for some reason, there were 3 tables in front of us that were waiting for their food. When the table in front of us got their food, it was about 40 minutes in. I asked about our food and it seemed to be coming up, but in honesty they probably just started at that point. It took 5-10 minutes at that point.

    The pancake wasn't that fluffy, the waffle want crisp, the eggs weren't fluffy. The sausages were big but the casing was different. I wished there was some cheese included to top the beans. The Mac m cheese.. was mc n cheese. Not much complaint there.

    I think I am just frustrated at how long it took, my kids started to get hungry and started to act up. I was at wits end and just staring at my wife showing my frustration.

    I think we should have just waited in the line at heidis. The line is long but service is lightning quick

    Avoid this place - no idea how the reviews are as high as they are.  Hair in our food.  Just an overall uncomfortable and unpleasant experience.

    Came here around 930am on a Sunday, and was seated immediately. The places by the lake was crowded w long lines. Lady was nice, we got our coffee and menus. The salsa and chips were on point, salsa was spicy but not overbearing.
    My boyfriend got the shrimp omelette and the cheese was yummy and the shrimp was fresh. I was jealous but my food was good too. I had the French toast w sausage breakfast, the sausage was not oily, scrambled eggs were just right, and my French toast had the right ratio of cinnamon. Local place, dated but it's charming. Will come back againz
