This place is delicious. Now, when I say delicious, I mean slap-yo-mama-do-a-dance-and-feel-the-magic-on-your-tastebuds good!!
The man and I went here for breakfast on a Sunday morning around 10:30ish. I wasn't sure if the after church crowd would have taken the place over by then, but we were willing to risk it. We love little local dives and based on the reviews, we figured this was right up our alley.
When we arrived, we were told that it would be about 15 minutes. We waited on a couple of chairs outside and were called in less than five. I had originally gone in with the intention of getting the egg croissant sandwich (a picture was posted), but then EVERYTHING looked good, so I wanted to try a little of everything.
I got the "Julie's Everyday Breakfast" (or something like that... basically bacon and eggs) with the home fries and biscuits and gravy. The man got the breakfast skillet with chorizo and we got a pancake (yes, just one) to share.
The coffee was refilled twice before our order got there. Not because it took a long time, but because they're THAT on top of it. Everything was fan-freaking-TASTIC. We like to think of ourselves as connoisseurs of bacon and this was some of the best! It was thick cut and crispy without being burnt. The eggs were light and fluffy, the home fries were nicely cooked (but needed a touch of salt.) The man's skillet was REALLY flavorful and had a kick without being TOO spicy (well, it was spicy for me, but i'm a honkey white girl... he added salsa and hot sauce to it...) He went with the server's suggestion to get tortillas on the side to make a couple of little breakfast burritos... which he did and he still had HALF of his breakfast left!! And the pancake was everything a pancake should be. It was spongey but not soggy, sweet but not sugary and the sides spilled over the edge of the plate. Yum!!
The decor was that of a typical local diner. The chairs were on casters which was nice; there were pictures and decorations covering the walls that were for sale and the plates were the usual beige color. Sure, the carpet could use some updating and the plastic table cloths remind me of my grandma's house. But overall, it was great and we will definitely be back and we'll be bringing our friends and their appetites!
