| - I think the best way to review this place is in context.
Let's say it's 3 AM and you are leaving a Lakewood bar, or getting out of a late party, or just up and about and wanting pancakes. But you know from experience and inate common sense that Denny's is sort of revolting and Perkin's is filled with old people. So, you want some decent food, that's not too far away, in an environment as low on douchebaggery as possible.
This is a good time for My Friends. They do the basics of 24 hr breakfast food pretty well, an OK job on some of that other crap you decide to try once and a while (sandwiches, gyros, etc.), and actually have some really tasty desserts in the case (try the rhapsody torte if you can). I think I recall they have good potato pancakes too.
The environment is decent, the service is at least on par with their late-night competition, and there's some winners on the menu. Compared to 24 hr chains this is your best option, but I wouldn't go here during day hours when you can have better, unless it's to stop in and get that rhapsody torte thingy.
