| - Their Waffles with Sausage Gravy are too.die.for!!! I didnt think waffles and sausage gravy mixed, but I took a chance cause my love of gravy trumps pretty much everything (aside from Music). It's so rich, flavorful, and full of thyme and basil. I would shout "YUM!" as loud as I could in the restaurant, but I'm sure it would startle everyone as I'm super loud in general.
The coffee is adequate, the other menu items are ok. For example, I got their multicolored potatoes/friend potatoes/whatchamacallits, and they are delicious when they make them hot and give me the Sri Racha. You have to ask for salt and pepper, or hot sauce or ketchup in this joint, so be prepared for that. Some of the servers are awesome, friendly and prompt, but I hope you don't have the displeasure of getting this one server who apparently can't be bothered to work or pretend that he wants customers in the restaurant. The seating at the front could be better organized, and it's kinda cramped in place. It it pretty clean.
It's kinda loud in here as there is no carpeting or buffering of the noise, but it does look like an upscale diner in decor. The artwork is corny, but who cares, you haven't had your coffee by the time you get there.
I do feel the dishes are a bit overpriced, but everything is in South Side Works. I feel it's the best breakfast place in that part of town, and there aren't many to choose from aside from the pricey place across the street or up the hill at Denise's Diner (of which I approve).
Takeaway from the above: get the waffles with sausage gravy. I lick the plate everytime.
