| - GREAT FOOD! Slow service.
I hesitated to give this four stars because the service was so slow. We had read in advance that you might be left waiting for a coffee refill here, and as we watched our server play on her phone and eat her own lunch shortly after we had been delivered ours, we realized these rumours are indeed true. My boyfriend ended up going up to the bar to order more coffee, which eventually did come, but still, that makes everyone feel awkward.
That said, I had the breakfast burrito with a side salad and it was actually so, so good. Probably one of my fave tex-mex brunches I've had in the city. The burrito came baked in a whole wheat wrap with fried black beans (which didn't taste fried at all, a good thing as they weren't the mushy beans I was expecting), scrambled free-run eggs from mennonite farms, some cheese, cilantro and salsa packed inside, and an incredibly scrumptious side of guacamole. The portion was generous, but it wasn't ridiculous like other places. AKA I didn't leave feeling disgusting.
My boyfriend got the mexicanrider and he loved it, said it was almost like scrambled egg nachos. His bread came brushed with olive oil and was nice and crunchy.
The other reason this gets 4 stars is because hello, Easy Rider themed diner?! The old movie posters are amazing in here and it's such a cool kitschy place it's worth checking out for this reason alone.
I know I'll be back at Easy. It was a hard to decide what to order with so many delicious sounding options, but now that I've had the breakfast burrito, it will be hard to stray.
