| - I really wanted to love this place! It's not bad, but more of a big disappointment!
My boyfriend and I love corned beef hash; it's our big Saturday morning breakfast after a hike or being lazy. Whichever. So after an early morning loop at Dreamy Draw park we decided to go out for hash and found this place. We were among the first customers to walk the through the door. The hostess was friendly and we heard her greeting the few other patrons by name.
Okay so we get some coffee and order our hash. I noticed a few faint bits of lipstick on my mug, yuck. My boyfriend swapped with me and wiped it off because he says he isn't that picky, but still! So then I noticed the wall at our booth was rather grimy as well. But I digress....
We are starving and really looking forward to a big, hearty breakfast! WELL!!! Imagine our surprise when it comes out and there is a small portion of hash that looks like it came out of the same type of can we pick up at the grocery store! It was browned and crisped up nicely but I couldn't get over the fact that I was about to pay nearly $8 for half of a $2.50 can of hash that I eat each week anyway!
To be fair, there were 2 eggs, half a plate of hashbrowns and one slice of toast. The eggs were good, the potatoes were clearly thawed from a bag and toast is ....toast.
I'm not complaining that the food was bad, it wasn't, I'm familiar with canned hash so I couldn't complain. It was all so underwhelming and then the bill came which pushed it over the edge. $21?! A tad overpriced. A cup of mediocre coffee was $2 and I think the half-can-of-hash breakfast was about $1.50 more than I was comfortable paying. Maybe it's the area, Willo is a high rent district for central Phoenix. I'm not cheap, I make a decent buck but this was not a good value therefore I will not be back. Neither will my boyfriend.
