There was a line of ppl waiting past 9am, so I called up and then was told it was closed. Place was closed for a few weeks after that too, so I was looking forward to trying Old School for a while!
Seems like they got everything worked out, came @ 11am on a Sat. Place was very busy, but we got a seat and had a super nice server. Food wait was a bit long, 30-40 minutes, but the quality was very good. Had lemon pancakes, mac and cheese, home fries, and person with me had fried chicken sandwich.
Mac and Cheese it masterful. Very well done. Home fries are perfect too...... but the pancakes, I got issues. If you look at their promo shots, and a lot of insta pics, their pancakes are super super fluffy and pillowy. Like 2x the height of a regular pancake. This is my thing, love pancakes like this so I was really excited to see what they are doing @ Old School. However when I got my pancakes they were thin and a little chewier than most pancakes. Was very disappointed. They were ok, the ingredients were all good and the flavor was there it had a very nice traditional flavor, but texture was a big miss. I don't want to sound too entitled, they were jam packed and obviously super busy, but hey if you don't hear criticism how do you fix stuff right?
Will for sure give Old School another shot some time soon to see if I just came at a bad time. Again food is super good quality and staff is A+++++++++.
