We stopped by for a Father's Day brunch after a morning baseball game, and I have to say, I was…read morereally impressed. It's a relatively small restaurant, but we were seated quickly. It's clean and a little noisy, but on par with most breakfast spots. Service was good and friendly, but what I was most impressed by was the food came out fairly quickly and really hot. My daughter and I split the Southern Chicken Sandwich and fries. Sandwich had amazing flavor. The fries could have used some salt. My wife had a half order of biscuits and gravy with an egg, which she loved. My son had the chocolate chip pancakes, which he devoured. Prices were reasonable. If we are ever in the area again, we'll come back.

QC must also mean Quality Control cause the food here was delectable…read more Waking up in the Quad Cities with no game plan and an empty stomach is what lead us to this fine destination. I was tasked with finding a place close to our hotel and this one sounded like what both Emily and I were craving. We got there a bit before 9am and were greeted with a 30-40 minute wait time. Since there probably would've been a wait time anywhere else, we gave them our name, number and headed back to the car to chill. Not even 15 minutes later, we got the call to come in and have some breakfast. Since we had time to kill in the car, we planned out our orders before we went back in so we were able to order right away. Emily got the Western Skillet and I got the Western Omelet. For how busy it was, the food took no more than 10 minutes to come out and it was a lot more than I was expecting. For an omelet, this thing must've had like 12 eggs in it. Same for Emily's skillet, it was served in a bit pan and it was filled with so much food. One of the reasons we picked this place is because they are known for their cinnamon roll pancakes. Emily got some for her side and I cautioned her that since its a side pancake, it might be normal ones. Turns out, it was the normal ones but good god, the one bit I had of them was heavenly. Turns out, the whole meal was mostly divine. The omelet could've had a bit more flavor to it but a little bit of salt and pepper helped bring it to life. Emily really liked her food but found the ham in her skillet to be a bit too bland for her taste. The food here was super good and a great value for what you paid. On top of that, the entire staff was super friendly and professional and handled the breakfast crowd like veterans in spite of the young ages of the staff. As we drove around the Quad Cities the day before, I pointed out the million different pancake houses to Emily, so, its funny and fitting that we ended up going to one for breakfast the next day... and what a good one we selected. They must really like their pancakes up there. I might have to add a few of them to my list of places to check out next time we are up here.

But the woman that waited on us was slow, never came back to the table, left us sitting 20 minutes, waiting for a bill to leave. I got the feta and spinach omelette. I was disappointed because the cheese was not melted. It was just sitting on top. It was a small omelette for $12. It came with potatoes or fruit, I chose the fruit which was good. I was disappointed there is no toast or pancakes. It comes with this like most breakfast places we go to. We go to breakfast every single week at least once. The absence of toast was a big one. I don't think we will be returning. My husband got a flight of four itty-bitty waffles. Certainly not worth $14. It came with nothing extra.

I like their location because as a study break or if you want to get out after the Riverwalk is right outside so it's easy to hop on that for a run or walk directly afterward(you also are within 2 to 3 miles of the bridge connecting Moline and bettendorf as well as the bridge to Sylvan Island which are fun places to get out to.

There have been a few times where we've customized our order and it wasn't done correctly, even after clarifying.
