This was a Google search for somewhere close to eat. This is a fantastic restaurant! Love the staff and the food was AMAZING! We will definitely be coming back here to eat. This is worth the drive! I wish I'd have taken pics before we dove in to eat and drink.

Early Bird was such a great experience and meal! We went at a very busy time, so all ages were present. As the crowd thinned, the atmosphere was much quieter. The menu was amazing. I wanted to try everything, but settled on the Crab Rangoon Omelet, with cinnamon raisin toast & fresh fruit (instead of hashbrowns). My friend got The Bird Cage. I also got the EB Bloody Mary. The Bird Cage is plated so well. You get your little toast cut outs with a delicious berry spread, topped with a blackberry! Their hash browns are unique, and I'm told, very tasty. The Crab Rangoon Omelet was bliss! I quite literally missed something my friend said as I savored the second bite. (The first bite is always a tester.) With the chili oil, the fried wontons, and the cream cheese, it was perfection. The service was kind, friendly, and we were very well taken care of. Our server was using a handheld unit. Our order was sent in right from the table, and that's how we paid, too. Simple and easy. We will go back. I will recommend this restaurant to everyone I know.

My husband and I are usually bar people so seating isn’t too challenging. We’ve been there several times and have met a few of the staff. I like to joke that when my husband cooks, we go out. So going out is a nice break for me. A few weeks ago, we arrived with my elderly father in tow (he loves their blueberry pancakes). There were a few people waiting, possibly for rest of their party. Carla enthusiastically greeted us, was happy to see dad was joining us. She didn’t skip a beat to find a table quickly. Lindsey took great care of us, refilled coffee and drinks as needed (my dad loves coffee too) and food was delicious as always. If I have one complaint, it’s an open area, so it’s loud when busy, which makes it hard for dad to hear, but he said it’s worth it for those pancakes. Thanks ladies and staff, for the great service and smiles all around! Sorry I didn’t get any pics, was busy enjoying. 😋❤️

Have eaten here twice - once during a weekend breakfast rush and once shortly before close on a week day. The food has always been excellent, the staff super helpful and friendly. The weekend rush made it a little louder in there - all the people talking on top of no decor for sound absorption - but my husband and I were still able to talk easily. It is a little spendy - but the food is absolutely worth it. Highly recommend.
