Was looking for a good place to take my Wife and three of our Daughter's for breakfast that was something different than the normal IHOP run on a late Sunday morning.
We were around the ASU Tempe campus picking up one of the three Yelp surfing for spots when Tennille (My Wife) suggested going to "Crackers" off of Country Club. My first thought was this is going out of our way and second was the implicit thoughts confusing Cracker & Co with Cracker Barrel.
The location gives this hole in the wall status as it is not on the immediate mainstreet but in an office strip just behind Country Club.
The service was fast friendly and efficient. We were a party of five seated less than five minutes after arriving. The food was so simple but at the same tme amazingly fresh and cooked.
I had the steak and eggs with fruit, potatoes and a side of pancakes. They eggs (over easy) were perfectly cooked as was the steak and the potatoes were triangular cuts that were not greasy, had the right amount of crunch and softness. But let me say the pancakes were what got the fifth star because they were thick enough, light enough, not doughy and had a buttermilk taste that makes you wanna slap your Mamma!
No one talked at the table for about six minutes because we were all enjoying the food. Put it this way, my bill was $81 dollars, I left a 25% tip because it was worth it.
Now my Wife will never let me forget she told me about this spot she goes to.
