| - The banana nut muffins taste like Cap'n Crunch! Their muffins are baked with love. Soft, moist, fresh and flavorful.
3.5 Star review.
I've seen nothing but great reviews and recommendations for this breakfast joint.
It was quite busy the morning I came - looked like some business meetings even took place here. A wait was understood but the lines died out and it got to a point where we thought they forgot about us. When I went to check on my table's order, the guy at the counter let me know that it would be right out. And it did come to us within the next couple minutes. Everyone was super apologetic and a gentleman (perhaps a manager? Owner?) even came by and checked up on us, apologized, and gave us three muffins on the house. Such a kind and appreciated gesture - not to mention those muffins are fantastic! Might even be the best thing we had on the menu!
I ordered the classic egg sandwich. The bread was really soft and you can never go wrong with eggs and bacon. Overall I enjoyed my sandwich. I would order it again.
My boyfriend ordered the Wilcox Avenue which was just eggs, a choice of meat, and toast. Again, simple, he also enjoyed his food with some Tapatio.
My brother and his girlfriend on the other hand did not have too pleasant of a breakfast. He got the Blackstone Scramble, which he said was barely seasoned and had an overwhelming amount of bell peppers.. And she ordered the Mexican Benedict. She is a lover of all Benedict's. That is, until today. The chorizo was not very flavorful. Again, the meal was just pretty bland and the eggs were over poached. There was such high expectations as everyone raves over them but it did not deliver in the least bit.
It made sense why my boyfriend and I were happy with our meals because what we ordered doesn't require seasoning.
What really made me disappointed were the spuds that are served with every meal. Now, I don't know if it's a thing to just kind of boil potatoes and call it good but I was not a fan! The amount of time we waited I feel like they should've sat on the stove top a little longer to get at least a crisp if there's absolutely no flavors added. Not even copious amounts of pepper or ketchup could save those.
Aside from that - if I were around the area, I would probably stop in for a muffin and some tea or coffee.
