| - I have heard good things about Short Stack and it has been really really busy on numerous occasions when I passed the place, especially so on Farmer's Market Saturdays. So that arose my curiosity.
On my first time there a coworker and I picked what we thought was an off-peak time -- Sunday afternoon, to go. It wasn't too bad, there was no line and we could get a table right away. Only thing is they'd ran out of french toast by that time and my friend had wanted that.
Price wise I feel their pancakes are reasonably priced, some of the stuff could be priced a little more competitively, but being where they are and all, it's not a bad deal. My friend had the blueberry pancakes that came with only 4 blueberries... which was a pity cos he said the blueberries were the best part. I am still having an eternal craving for biscuits and gravy so I had that. Two huge buttermilk biscuits with cajun sausage gravy, topped with two eggs, which I am pretty sure you could pick whatever style you like. I like my biscuits and gravy. Their sweet potato pancakes are another great option, healthier and not any less tasty and flavorful.
While we were there the music was pretty loud, together with the chatter of the other diners, it was hard to hear each other over our meal. Water is self-serve over by a wall at the back just fyi. One more thing: it will be good if their online menu can be kept up to date, some of the pricing are not current.
All in all it's a nice place to go for breakfast/brunch/dinner/whenever you feel like having what they offer on their menu. They open 24 hours starting Thurs all the way to Sun, so it's great for post-overture center shows and the likes.
