I've visited many Golden Griddles in my day (aka my childhood). I don't remember much about them since I was a child and well, I don't really remember back that far. But I do remember the breakfast buffets and Sunday mornings with the family. Always good memories.
I recently came here with a bunch of friends after a night of debachary. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. This place is great because it's cheaper than Eggspectation and way less greasy than Fran's, the only thing is the place is a *bit* rundown...I mean honestly it's really old inside and is in dire need of a spruce. But realistically, with what you're paying for, it's not a big deal.
I didn't get the buffet as quite frankly it looked a little bit different than what I remember when I was a child. I did have my breakfast staple of eggs, over easy and sausage with home fries and toast. YUM! It was actually really tasty and not greasy and gross like some other places. I usually get the same thing because:
A. I compare and contrast
B. I'm a simple eater
and
C. I'm just a sucker for runny eggs and home fries
I would definitely come back here again, not in the greatest neighbourhood but come during daylight and you'll be just fine. Oh and try to ignore the gross booths and/or nasty looking tables.
