| - HUGE PORTIONS! That is your only warning.
Mo's Family Restaurant is this place on the industrial strip in Oakville. There's nothing but old industrial buildings, bars, automotives, and trucks. The place itself looks pretty crappy outside actually. We were keeping our eye out for it and still drove by it. The interior is pretty old and reminds me of a tavern. Blackboard specials are posted outside and menu is rather large with lots of different items from burgers and sandwiches to pastas and steak. They also have an all-day breakfast for you hungover zombies looking for a fatty retreat.
I ordered the Breakfast Champion ($13 - 4 eggs, bacon, ham, and sausage with hash browns and toast), thinking that it would be just your standard breakfast meal. You can get an upgrade for only $2 more with a stack of pancakes if you like as well. When that plate came, I damn near had to cancel the rest of whatever I was doing today. This is definitely something you eat twice in a day. The eggs were good, and definitely feels like it was more than 4 eggs. The hash browns are exactly that. They were strips of potato smashed onto a griddle. The meat portions were the key. They give SO much meat. I'm talking 3 sausage links, 4 strips of long bacon, 2 slices of thick ham. Seriously? When they said bacon, ham, and sausage, I thought maybe 2 of each max? No way.
Service was amazing. Our waitress looked so tired but was still friendly enough to throw around some laughs and such. Really made me feel like a \"regular\" even though it was my first time here. The sheer portion size is enough to make you want to come back, but when you factor in price and service, it's a no brainer. When glancing at the menu, I thought it looked a bit high in price. When the food comes though, you'll soon realize that you've paid for two meals so it's actually pretty cheap...
