Worse Omelett I ever had. Very small ham, very small onions and much too fat. More importantly, the oil/grease was overused. It smells like old oil when I removed the lid. Yes!

Avoid, avoid, avoid! Worst example of this franchise. Infinitely waiting for the summit, including no greeting, waiting for the host. Sl-o-w Service. Wait a lot. Food is not worth it. A loser.

The food tastes good, but the staff always seem like customers are ruining their day by walking in. It's usually a pretty unhappy atmosphere. The last time we were there, we stood at the door for five minutes waiting for a server, even though they saw us and made eye contact a few times. There was no greeting or explanation for the delay. Frustrated, we ended up going across the street to Chili's, where we eventually found a nice spot for pancakes.

Riane was our server and she was fantastic. The omelette was delicious, and we also loved the protein pancakes—especially the lemon blueberry flavor. The coffee wasn’t too strong, but I had plenty of half-and-half to add. Overall, this is one of the best breakfast spots in the city!

The service was excellent, and the food was outstanding. The portion sizes were generous. The grilled chicken Caesar salad was the best I’ve ever had. The others in my group enjoyed the fabulous fish and chips, and the Belgian waffles topped with strawberries and cream were simply amazing.
