We ate here 4 times in three days. Most times we had a very attentive server and good timely service. Once, our server was being a little too attentive so some tables and not others. The staff tends to conduct what should be invisible behind the scenes business out in the dining room. I've worked in restaurants, the patrons don't really want to hear about who's up, who's slow, or where a server should be. \n\nThe food was good overall maybe less of a value than a breakfast chain. I really enjoyed the Waffle sandwich and my wife said her omelettes were very good but the scrambled eggs less so. High marks to the barista making our Americanos!"^^ . "0"^^ . . .
