| - The overwhelming amount of options your search engine provides for "breakfast" can only be navigated by the star-labeled risk of others before you. And breakfast, coming from a restaurant defended by four stars, as simple and innocent as eggs with meat and potatoes can be, should be at least somewhat tolerable.
This was mostly the opposite.
In fact, bringing my mother-in-law here was nothing short of embarrassing.
Biscuits and gravy for her, the lamb hash for me, and country friend steak for my fiancé.
To begin, the service was horrible. An older woman with poofy grey hair, stone-faced and without consideration. She clearly did not have time to even consider listing the sides, and rather told me to just read them. Fair, as they were listed in the menu. So, we move forward.
A sigh as we order coffee and orange juice, an explanation of the hash browns that did not answer my mother-in-law' s question, and really just a general impatience.
It takes 20 minutes for food, which does not bother us at all. This seems standard for good breakfast.
But what comes out is disappointing.
Lamb hash was bland. It tasted like dry, overcooked beef and potatoes. I would have never known that I'd ordered lamb, as the edges of each tiny bit were curling and on the verge of burnt.
Biscuits and gravy were alright. Gravy was watery and without decent consistency or flavor. Comparable to packaged.
Chicken fried steak was good. Moist, crispy, everything it should be. Topped with bland gravy.
The fruit bowl was nice. Toast seemed refrigerated and ice cold.
Jelly was awful. Ordered the most simple strawberry. Flavor was that of a jello packet maybe. Possibly worse.
