| - I went with one of my friends on a Sunday morning and we were early enough that there wasn't a line out the door (8AM). Literally the second we ordered our food, the line grew about 4x longer than what it was when we got there.
This place is kind of interesting; order your food at the counter, find a place to sit, and they bring your order to your table. Menu has your pretty typical breakfast fare but some of the items have a fun twist. They also have a 'blind special' which you can order for pretty cheap granted you are ordering blind (they will tell you if it's sweet or savory though). The day we went it was a sweet item and I am usually not a fan of sweet breakfast items so I ordered the cajun biscuits and gravy and a blueberry mint lemonade.
A lot of the reviews said that the wait for your can be long, but I felt like our wait was pretty average. Average wait for pretty average food. I thought the biscuits were decent -- nice and moist and not too dense. The gravy was just eh, and eggs are just eggs so not much to say there. Overall it wasn't bad, but there was nothing exceptional about it either. Maybe I should have ordered something else? I will say the lemonade was good, if not a bit pricey. My friend ordered a strawberry basil lemonade and I thought that was good as well.
Overall? Just okay. There is a lot of hype around this place but overall I don't think it really lived up to the hype. Open 24 hours a day on weekends -- in theory it seems like a cool idea, in execution not so much. Uncomfortably crowded, a bit over-priced for a place that doesn't have table service (except when they bring your food to you), and the food was just fine.
Would I come back? Part of me says yes just to check out more of the menu, but only if there's not a huge line and it's not ridiculously hot or cold outside either.
