    Time for a late breakfast!
    Mike M.

    If anyone is familiar with my post they should know that I am a pretty big man of diners. It's amazing how many we have here in Rochester and I haven't run through them all yet so this weekend I decided to try out Billy's homestead. As you can see it's on empire boulevard near Baytown plaza. Pretty cozy little spot there's only about a dozen boots and three or four tables. Menu's not very original eggs omelettes skillets they're pretty much breakfast and lunch except for Fridays. I got three eggs sausage pancakes and home fries. It's been more than I usually order I'm typically Ann eggs meat toast potato guy. But Billy's basic breakfast comes in at 8 bucks!. So I decided why not spend an extra buck and get an extra egg and the pancakes. Got the eggs scrambled cuz I wasn't getting toast they were okay little undercooked for how I like them. The sausage was a little disappointing. Seems like you're generic brown and serve. The home fries were a very big disappointment. They were just sliced potatoes grilled didn't really have a lot of flavor didn't really a lot of texture. Even the red hot couldn't really save them. Last up were the pancakes. Now personally I like my pancakes of a nice crust on them from from cooking on the grill. The taste of these were okay and they were decently sized but flavor and texture were both kind of meh.

    He's two and he loves the kiddy pancakes and sausage.

I love the pastel de nata latte, and I appreciate that they offer dairy-free options. They also let you choose between medium or dark roast for your coffee. Today I tried their spring special, the pistachio cannoli latte, and it was delicious. The Portuguese egg tarts are absolutely to die for! On weekdays, they have a wheel at the register that you can spin for free or discounted drinks, and they also offer a punch card loyalty program. I'll definitely be coming back to Elvio's!

Has all the classics and its own flair as well. Very ample menu, but I appreciate the fact that it's not pages and pages of things no one orders. Their selection tells me they sell what they have and, therefore, can expect fresh, high-quality food at a reasonable price. As a nod to the local food scene, we "started" with their version of a garbage plate. One dog and one burger. Was very good. Shared with my son as an appetizer. Was more fun than anything else. But it was tasty, not greasy for what it is. My son then ordered a pastrami Ruben. The portions are excellent. The marble rye and the fries clinically perfect. The pastrami was mid-level deli wog. Kind of a disappointment. I had a turkey club. The best I've had outside of NJ. Clearly house roasted turkey. Perfect toast to meat and veg ratio. Fresh. Delicious. My only knock is YOU DON'T put cheese on a club!!! I'll ask for no cheese next time. The next two points are really how I judge a diner... pickles and coleslaw. Pickles were good. But just good. The Cole slaw was very good. I was happy. Service exceeded my expectations. Really fantastic. Prices very reasonable. Excellent portions. Simply cannot wait to go again and try a burger. I bet they're amazing. But it will be hard not to get another turkey club. It was that good.

It was busy (Mother's Day). We ordered coffees first. I got an iced vanilla latte and I really enjoyed it. One of the better latte's I've had in the area. Our waitress was ok, got us everything we needed, but nothing really stood out. The ham and asparagus crepe was enjoyable. I was able to order it gluten free. I found a weird square chunk of some sort of meat that did not resemble ham, so that was a little off putting. They had several gluten free options on the menu which was a big plus. The crepes from the simply strawberry crepes were cold (as if it were made ahead of time). The crispy red potatoes were under salted and bland in my opinion. Overall, everyone enjoyed their meals. It's not my new go-to spot, but I would come back.

    Simply Crepes: A True Five-Star Culinary Experience!…read more Simply Crepes is an absolute gem, and I can't recommend it highly enough. From the moment you step inside, you can feel the pride and passion the owner puts into this restaurant--it truly shows in every detail, from the inviting atmosphere to the impeccable service. A special shout-out must go to our server, Morgan, who was fabulous! Morgan was attentive, friendly, and made our entire dining experience seamless and enjoyable. Great service is the cherry on top, and Morgan delivered. But let's talk about the food, because it is simply fabulous! Shrimp and Grits: This dish is a masterpiece. The grits were creamy and perfectly seasoned, and the shrimp were plump and flavorful. It's easily one of the best versions I've ever had. Whammy Chicken Sandwich: This is not your average sandwich! Juicy, tender chicken layered with delicious toppings--it lives up to the name and delivers a total flavor "whammy." It's bold, satisfying, and a must-try. Chicken and Crepes: The combination was delicious, but my husband noted one minor preference. We believe the syrup served was a bourbon syrup, which, while unique, he would have preferred a more traditional maple syrup. Still, a high-quality and satisfying dish! Mimosas Flight: The perfect way to start your brunch! The flight offers a fantastic variety of flavors, allowing you to sample and find a new favorite. They were all fresh, bubbly, and beautifully presented. Strawberry Mojito: And speaking of drinks, the strawberry mojito was absolutely delicious! It was perfectly balanced--refreshing, sweet, and minty, making it a perfect complement to the meal. Every dish we tried was executed with skill and high-quality ingredients. This is much more than just a crepe place; it's a destination for outstanding breakfast and lunch fare. If you're looking for incredible food, great drinks, and a place where the owner genuinely cares about your experience, look no further than Simply Crepes. Five stars all the way! We will absolutely be back soon!

I can confirm that the shrimp and grits are wonderful as well as the waffles, home fries and everything else that we have tried which is pretty much everything. My aunt raved about the catfish nuggets. Their chicken and waffles are served with wings not tenders so that is also a big hit. The shrimp and grits feature jumbo shrimp, not the small ones, and the portion is large enough for two of us to split. Our family hosted a small gathering here in the fall and we recently went back, as a couple and had an amazing experience. I had not previously heard of this restaurant prior to my niece planning and making the recommendation, but we are so happy that we did. The food is nothing short of phenomenal. Did I mention that it is flavorful and delicious? Can I elaborate on how overly nice everyone on the staff is from the owner, to the wonderful people working in the kitchen. The atmosphere is modern with great vibes. The music is loud, but lends itself to a fun vibe. The mimosas are strong and a decent pour. Lots of good things to say about Vault, but the bottom line is that it is more than worthy of a visit. I have read other reviews comment on the wait. We have never experienced a long wait times. However, the dining room is not super large, so if you go on a Saturday or Sunday maybe use common sense and know that you'll be waiting longer during peak times. We dined midweek and waited no time to sit since there weren't many people and no more than 15-20 minutes for our meal. Our server, this time, could have been a little more prompt as it took her about 15 minutes to appear from the back to take orders for my table and another one. We have parked on the street during visits. Parking is not the most ideal, but we have managed to easily find a spot. All good things have been experienced during our visits. Add this to your restaurant rotation because we certainly already have! We like it.

The hostess talked to the people in front the of us for a good 5 minutes or so about what their options were because there wasn't a table available for them. The restaurant was full except for the one table that was probably reserved for us. The hostess never once looked at us, acknowledged our presence or said the simple words that make any customer happy, "I'll be right with you." So we walked out unhappy and went to another place in the public market that made us feel very welcome instead. It was disappointing and I won't be going back but we had a fantastic brunch somewhere else.
