| - Maybe it's because I'm from the Chicagoland area and I was expecting more, but this place was average at best.
My standards are pretty high for breakfast (See Red apple Pancake House in Carol Stream). I went here for lunch on a Saturday afternoon, and there was about 5 other people in the restaurant, including the staff.
First off, why can't you sub fruit for hash browns? I understand an upcharge, but saying you "can't" do it? Come on. So, I ended up paying 3 extra dollars for fruit, and I didn't get hash browns, because there's nothing good about them unless their doused in ketchup.
My egg beater omelet with broc, mushroom, tomato, and avocado was very good. The salsa on the side was an excellent compliment. If I was rating on just the omelete (sans price), I would give a 5. But charging different amounts for different ingredients really grinded my gears.
I also ordered a short stack of multigrain cakes with banana. Those were decent, but kind of small.
Two meals, with all the upcharges, plus coffee, for 28 bucks. MERCY! I will probably not return because I'm not in the area that often. I will go elsewhere in Champaign for some bfast
