    the outside of the restaurant
    Carla C.

    Easy to find with Google Maps. Parking available in front of the restaurant. Only 10% full 12:30PM on a Tuesday. Waitress was kind but never came to check on us during the meal until all plates were empty and we were ready for the bill (45min approx.). No water or coffee refills. Loved the large variety of homemade soups available. Menu is as per the online menu. I got the Meat lovers Burrito. I liked how the egg was cooked on to the wrap but it made the burrito so small and look so thin. I wish they put the hashbrowns IN the wrap as other restaurants have - makes it look fuller and give it more sustenance. Overall taste was fine but not exciting. Not very filling. 7/10. Hashbrowns were 10/10 yummy. Boyfriends got the California Burrito. He really liked the avocado in it. Friend 1 got the Fish and Chips. Loved the fish said very very good. Fries were super hot and fresh and crisp but needed salt. Friend 2 asked for 1 fish so she got the "seniors" meal. Very happy with her meal/taste/portion. We all split the Cookies 'N Cream Cake. It was 10/10 delicious but I don't recall the price. There's a display case with cake slices that would be great for takeout or take-home. Loved that there is a ton of choices and no matter who you bring they can find something to eat.

    Cowboy breakfast - 3 bacon, 3 sausages, 2 eggs, toast & hash.

    staff: friendly, working hard at a busy time. service: we were there for breakfast around 09:30. Staff did quick check ins and taking orders. Food came out pretty quickly. establishment: clean, bright, a modern version of an old school retro diner feel. Love the black/white checkered floor look. food: breakfast portions are generous! Pancakes with blueberries were fluffy and fresh. The egg meals were a generous size. All tasty. They have a kids menu for the littles.

    Denver sandwich and house salad!

    I have to admit my expectations were not high but what a lovely surprise. Best Denver sandwich which was well built with fresh vegetables and chunks of ham. Side salad was large and had cucumbers, shredded cabbage and loads of green. Well done!

    the place looks really nice, tidy and modern look for a diners. I like the color combination of the interior and the costumer service is great and waiting for the food is about 10mins which is good and they serve all day breakfast but I didn't see any pork in their menu, I think this is halal restaurant. I only order two food in their menu but all I can say about the western omelet is like tease of home made breakfast there's nothing else maybe I was expecting more about the omelet I hope they'll find new texture or flavour on the omelet but the blue berry pancakes there not too sweet which is really good not over power the honey or sweetness and you can still tease the blueberry!! you have to try it! I recommended!! overall four star!

    A very enjoyable first time experience. Very clean, friendly staff and food was amazing!! We will definitely be back!

    This location just opened on Dec 2nd and for being open almost a week, they were very organized and the food was pretty good! We went there on Sunday, Dec 8th around 12:30pm and was seated right away. The table and booth was very clean. The restaurant is bright, and clean as well. Our server greeted us shortly after we were seated and was very pleasant. All the staff were smiling and very nice to deal with. We were a bit surprised at first to realize that there was no pork products on the menu. Which is not a bad thing, but we expected a similar menu to the 118 ave location. This location is 100% Halal which is pretty brilliant since there are very few true Halal restaurants that serve a Canadian style breakfast or other entrees. I had the French toast crisp with blueberries and my spouse had the 2 egg classic breakfast with beef bacon. Neither of us even knew that beef bacon existed, but we both liked it! His breakfast was fairly standard for a classic breakfast (eggs, toast, shredded hash browns and the bacon). My French toast crisp was good, but I wasn't a fan. There was nothing outwardly wrong with it or tasted weird, but it was just my palette. Don't let that stop you from trying it! I don't think I would order it again, but this won't stop us from going back and trying something different! Their burgers look amazing and there are lots of other options on their menu. Overall the service was great, food was good, location and parking great and we'll try it again in the near future! To the owners...brilliant idea opening a Halal breakfast at joint in this area!

The decor is very nice - brick walls and posters, and hand written beer menu, to name a few. Service was very good, professional, and friendly!! Overall good experience, and will return again in the future.

Brunch is offered on Saturday and Sunday, otherwise they open for lunch (closed Mondays). Epic Market is huge. This will be a very popular place for the Whyte Avenue crowd as there are so many options available depending on which floor you enter. We were on the second floor today for brunch but the first floor, which has a similar look and feel, has a Mexican menu. It opens for lunch at 11:30am. It's a unique concept for Edmonton. The server said that they've opened similar restaurants in larger cities like Toronto but Edmonton is their first venture into a "smaller market". The brunch menu was interesting with some unique features and some typical offerings. I had the Pork Bennie, for $18.00 in 2024. The prices are quite reasonable for the type and quantity of the food. My bennie was good. My only criticism is that a special house ketchup would have been a nice touch. The service was excellent and we had a nice view of Gateway Blvd out the window. The coffee includes endless refills which is good because the cups were not very large. I'm sure the vibe is much different for dinner than brunch, but based on our experience, I'll definitely return.

My wife and I both ordered the Chandru Special for $17.50. It's a crepe with bacon and eggs inside plus some cheese slices melted on top. There was a side of fresh fruit. The presentation was somewhat lacking as the cheese slices made it look like something you find at your children's birthday party. The dish definitely needed some sauce to help it down. At least the fruit was good. Our server was very skilled at tunnel vision as she didn't see us even when walking right by our table. Eventually we caught her and got a refill for our coffee. She was pleasent enough when she arrived but definitely didn't want to do refills. On a more positive note, my friend ordered an omelet which came with potatoes that looked like thick potato chips. They looked good and he liked them. If I return it will be because I am in the area and can't find a better place. In other words, three stars out of five.

Gotta love a classic diner breakfast, and here your eggs and bacon are served quickly, with a smile and with lots of fresh coffee, for about $10-12. And it's a good breakfast too, flavourful with a nice balance of ingredients. I had the scrambler special which comes with ham, onion and green pepper, with a choice of rye, white or brown toast. I appreciate that the jam/PB are name brand given the cost, these little things make a difference. Service is quick and attentive, the meals arrived within minutes, coffee rounds were regular, and tables are quickly cleared and sanitized. The diner has 14 tables, with 10 booths around the outside which are still separated by partitions. Not that they need to be, the booths are not squishy and there is enough room to manoeuvre around the tables. The place is also spotless, even the washroom, and one can see in to the kitchen. It's a wee gem of a breakfast spot! Thanks fellow Yelpers for a great recommendation!

We would go back in a heartbeat, just need to sleep off the food coma for a while. It's bright and airy in spite of the smallish space and the amount of booths and tables, oh and you can sit at the counter. The walls and ceiling are covered in memorabilia, concert banners and what not. The place was absolutely hopping at 12:45 PM, but we were sat in a booth right away. Waters dropped moments later, asked if we needed coffee, tea or whatever else you wanted to drink. Our server was fantastic, explaining and educating us as we were first timers. The food came out piping hot very quickly and our tea ordered after the food was dropped came in a large teapot and hot just like at home. The clubhouse, which I did not have, has house made ham and turkey according to our server. My corn beef had slices of corn beef that did not taste house made, but the sheer volume of meat I couldn't finish, the eggs were cooked perfectly. K's Mexicasa omelette was excellent with the Mexican meat the star. I know why the place is consistently full, it's that good. Definite redo when back in West Edmonton
