My girlfriend heard about this place from a friend. Once we heard about the humongous portions, we knew we had to come.
When arrived at about 11 am after driving in from Los Angeles. This place was POPPIN. The wait was about 45 minutes so we went to the Irish Pub downstairs to grab a drink while we waited. We got seated at about the estimated wait they gave us. Kudos to the ladies working the waiting room. She was so energetic and they kept what is a mad house under control.
Food: The Chicken and Waffles came in a huge plate that looked more like a mountain of food than anything. I split this with my girlfriend. The waffles had bacon cooked into it and it was bomb. The mix of the sweet syrup and salty bacon was fantastic! The chicken was perfect. Crispy, tender, flavorful! We also got a side of biscuits and gravy and that was delicious. The biscuit itself was OK, but the gravy was delicious!
My girlfriend got their watermelon cocktail and she loved it! I had a sip and it was very good. refreshing and not too sweet (which a lot of cocktail can be when they add the flavor syrup). It was so good she ordered on to go!
Service: Quick and friendly. They are pretty efficient here, but you have to be because they handle so many hungry people.
Ambiance: Casual and busy. It was loud, but not overwhelming. Really cool decor. Enjoyed the vibe.
If you are looking for a brunch spot and are not planning to eat the rest of the day definitely come here! You will not leave hungry. If you have leftovers, I hope you have a microwave in your hotel room!
