These folks have it together as far as freshness goes in breakfast and sandwiches. It's all cooked to order from great ingredients, handled with care, but I can't enjoy food that I can make at home for a fraction of the cost. I mean $12 for pancakes?
It's very noisy too-- tin ceiling, hard floors and walls. Not good for conversation, unless you scream. At my last visit, five waiters cruised back and forth through the nearly empty room refilling salt shakers, etc. leaving me alone, but would have been nice if one had brought the coffee pot by. This is probably a fluke, and won't keep me away.
The owners are from NYC and brought the prices with them. If you're on a tourist's budget and have money to burn, you'll get a good meal here.
