| - This place is a miraculous take on the family dining experience. My family usually picks this spot above all others due to the generous accommodations, consistently great food, and incredible customer service! I have never been disappointed going here, and I see the love and attention to detail rarely seen in most breakfast joints in the city. The waitresses greet you with familiar and warm smiles. The atmosphere is always jostling and lively with conversation and the enticing smells of their specials ranging anywhere between their unique take on dishes close to my heart: Spam and Rice to the San Francisco style French Toast, watering my mouth as I recall my experiences with the taste of Apple Chicken Sausage on the tip of my tongue. Service is on point. Even if the wait on the weekends is 30-40 minues, it's due to the high quality of the food and the anticipation to get in and be seated!
Once you're seated, the menu fits comfortably in your hands. Dishes are prepared very well with a downhome feeling to them with someone always there to ask if you need anything. On the weekdays, it's a little quiet but well worth cultivating the oftentimes relaxing experience with the food in a subdued, yet welcoming restaurant--a kind of openness and hospitality similar to island - style eateries with a California beach twist. A trademark the owner makes sure to indulge. He is always there as a reassuring presence, constantly keeping a vigilant yet efficacious eye on the counters and kitchens, checking with clientele, following up on his employees and flood of patrons with a beaming smile. Every time, he never fails to amaze me in the best way.
Quite frankly, to me, this place bubbles up feelings of welcome no matter how I come into my state of mind for that day: sad, happy, angry, the day gets brighter when I'm here--it's home. That feeling never changes when I come here, or when my family comes here. And they have noticed this, too. I'm so grateful to this place, and I wish them to thrive and blossom so we can savor more memories from one generation to the next!!
