| - The first time I had breakfast at stacks and yolks I was in love! The place was small, yet comfortable, the staff were all friendly. But it was the food that had me itching to come back. Then I did and my second visit was just disappointing. It was so bad I haven't gone back, though I think I might one day.
My first trip I got the philly cheese steak skillet and I subbed the mushrooms for fresh jalapeƱos. It was wonderful: perfectly cooked eggs, tender beef, fluffy potatoes, flavorful melted cheese, all kept screaming hot by the skillet throughout my meal.
It was one of the first meals I've had in awhile that compelled me to come back to the same restaurant in a week.
The second time I came in nothing was the same. Our server wasn't as nice, the atmosphere was louder and uncomfortable. Worst of all, the food was awful. I ordered the same breakfast, cooked the same way and received something completely different. My eggs weren't cooked right, the jalapeƱos were barely cooked at all, and the there was considerably less beef on the plate. Yes plate! They served my skillet breakfast on a regular plate this time, which killed the presentation, didn't keep the food warm (much less hot), and altogether defeated the purpose of ordering a skillet. Such a big let down.
Like I said, I'll probably go back one day since it's so close to my house, I'm just not ready to yet. It's worth checking out if you're looking for a nearby breakfast place that's decent, just don't expect consistency.
