| - There's a reason Yelp's overall rating is an average. Restaurants can vary based on day of the week or time of the day. I know this place has potential, but I was underwhelmed.
Imagine a breakfast place where you stand in line to place your order, you then proceed to stand around like a vulture trying to find a table to open up (It's can be competitive). You then sit down to babies crying, people STOMPing up and down the stairs, people squeezing past your table to claim their table, people re-squeezing past your table to retrieve their food downstairs (more STOMPing), people re-squeezing past your table to bring their food back, then again to get the condiments they forgot. You get the point? This place is a commotion. Kind reminds me of Ian's Pizza at bar time...except it's Sunday morning and you're trying to enjoy breakfast. Occasionally they have to holler out people's names that didn't come to claim their food. It's loud.
The above may be a bit harsh, but it's the truth, and not an extreme example. That said, LJ's could have a nice appeal to it when it's not the weekend. I imagine they could have a nice relaxing place when there aren't 100 people in there.
My food was nothing special. Biscuits and gravy. The biscuits were a bit dry. I'd give them a 3 star. My girlfriend had the Chorizo scrambler. Picture attached. Pretty decent.
On a positive note: The orange coconut white chocolate scone was awesome. As Corey D says, "It's bananas!"
