    Supreme omelette

    Ok we found this place by accident and I don't think I'm ever gonna eat at another breakfast place the portions are HUGE ! The hashbrowns are the best I've ever had in life I was shook I ate half of them before even starting my omelette... Then I tasted the omelette and almost died it is so fresh so flavorful and so good.bthey allowed me to add mushrooms which was amazing and fresh just as the other ingredients. The biscuits were some of the softest fluffiest biscuits I ever had the gravy is creamy and rich but not to heavy. I spent a lot of time eating this meal cuz I wanted to savor every bite. The staff were friendly and warm I'm very happy with this visit will be back this is officially my breakfast place

    The menu for the address.

    This place is small but one of the best. Great prices, service and food. Just don't go on Tuesdays because they are closed. I wish they were in Ceres.

    One ofthe best places I have ever been for breakfast! Was pleasantly surprised to have found a new favorite breakfast place! The Chilaquiles were absolutely amazing! Everything was cooked to perfection! The right half of plate was hash browns and two eggs on top! An abundance of food for half the price! Got the red sauce and it was actually spicy!!

    Delicious food, coffee, and great service!  I look forward to this every Sunday!!

I been wanting to try this place for a long time. I can't believe it took me this long to try them out. I was very pleased from start to finish. The service was excellent, the food was amazing and I was ultra impressed with the waitress explaining we can get gravy made with no pork and also for next time to ask for our home fried potatoes to also be cooked in non pork fat. ( I told her We don't eat pork ) It is so hard to find a place that offers no pork in their gravy. They went the extra mile to make us special non pork gravy on the spot, amazing. Also they fried our home fried potatoes in non pork oil, thats the extra extra mile of care and service and attending to a customers needs, I was completely satisfied. I cant wait to try more of the menu. Everything we ordered was good. The cinnamon bun was so good, I would go there just for that alone, yummy and fresh and moist and soft and so much frosting and yes I said and alot, AND? Haha Pro tip: if you dont eat pork ask for them to cook your potatoes in non pork oil and if you want gravy ask them to make non pork gravy. You have to mention it to your server, dont forget. Now go & enjoy, you can thank me later. Make reservations if possible or go on a slow day, the weekends are packed but worth the wait. They have alot of seating inside.

However, on a late afternoon weekend, we found plenty of parking and ample seating. Staff was amazing and incredibly attentive. The pasta was okay, and I really regret not sticking with breakfast. Service: 5/5 Food: 3.5/5

    Came in on a Sunday at 11:30am and there was only a 15-minute wait for a booth for three people…read more The staff was nice and quick. The food was just your typical diner type, greasy spoon kind of place. I got an egg white omelette with ham (looked like cut up pieces of thin sliced deli meat) and asked that fresh potatoes be boiled in water or steamed in water due to food allergy. What I got was fried potatoes. When I questioned the server he just said that's how they come. Do they not have raw potatoes in the back they could have boiled for me?? The taste of the omelette was meh and I only ate 4 bites. I obviously didn't eat the potatoes. The English Muffin felt oily, like someone touched it with greasy hands. I had asked for it to be dry and with no butter. So basically I didn't eat any of my food and will not be back (this was my third time here and none of the other experiences were any better.) Such a shame because it is only 5-minutes from my house. My dad ordered the chicken fried steak and my mom got the taco salad and both of their meals were inedible too. The food here is just BAD. I told the server I didn't like my food and he didn't even answer me. He took away three plates of uneaten food and no one asked if there was an issue and no manager bothered to come over to even talk to us or try and make it right. What a HUGE waste of money. Don't bother eating here...so many other places to eat that are so much better. This place was packed and no real waiting area...everyone just squished together. This is a hustling and bustling place, so if you are looking for a quiet spot, at least don't go when we did. Best part of this place is their wall for taking pictures. I think they care more about making things look IG worthy, than the quality of the product they are serving.

We had the country fried steak which was probably the best one I have ever had in my entire life! My sons had chorizo and eggs and the other one had chocolate pancakes, ham and eggs. We also got a Nutella Crepe because my youngest had never had a real crepe before. The food was all amazing. We cleaned every plate between a 47 year old, 13 & 8 year old! We couldn't stop eating!! The place was clean and for such a busy brunch we were sat very quickly! Service was amazing as well! The staff was so accommodating, friendly and professional! They were so hard working turning those tables over and checking on tables all the time. We didn't have to wait for plates to be cleared or refills of Iced Tea!! Like I said I can't believe I haven't been back to this place in such a long time but that is going to change!! I will be back as much as I can!

    Tasty or WasteY???? Totally tasty !!!!…read moreI love everything about this place. I always get the Chilaquiles with green sauce. My husband gets different things on the menu when we go and he enjoys all of them. The only problem I have is it is so loud in there because it is such a small and confined restaurant. And I enjoy the live music being played. It's just such a tight confined little place. And you have to yell to talk to one another therefore everybody else here's your conversation. This is not a good place to go on a date or to get to know somebody over conversation. That's why you have Galletto's or Tresetti's down the street. But if you wanna go and have a quick breakfast, then this is the place. Though wait waitresses are always very, very nice. And the prices are great.

My friend from Modesto told me about this spot, and I immediately wanted to try it. I actually planned my drive around this pit stop, which was just a short detour off the 99. I ordered a biscuit with fried eggs and dear Lord, that biscuit was amazing, and so was the jam! The fried eggs were cooked perfectly and especially delicious with the hot sauces they had to offer. My brother got an egg sandwich on a brioche bun and he still can't stop talking about how good it was. He was particularly impressed with the brioche bun. We also got the blueberry french toast to go, which I didn't anticipate traveling very well, but it did and holy shit, it was fan-freaking-tastic when I ate it that evening. I can't even fathom how incredible it must be if eaten fresh. This place was so cute inside and clearly had an intentional aesthetic direction. There was a cute outdoor seating area in the front where I could have my dog with me, which is a huge plus. The service was top-notch and the food was ready lickety-split. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and attentive. I HIGHLY recommend this spot!!!

    A Hidden Gem with Nightclub Vibes and Brunch Soul…read more Came in for breakfast and left with a new favorite local spot. The atmosphere is electric but chill--modern ring lighting, glowing LED pillars, a full wall of TVs, and just enough disco ball energy to make you wonder what this place transforms into after dark. (Spoiler: we'll be back to find out.) We started the day with mimosas--light, bright, and generously poured. They set the tone. My partner ordered the Huevos Rancheros, and wow--rich, flavorful, and with just the right kick. The ranchero sauce was warm and bold, layered over perfectly cooked eggs and soft tortillas. Beans and salsa rounded it out with heart and spice. I went classic: two eggs over easy, bacon, and hashbrowns. Everything hit the mark. The eggs were runny and golden, the bacon had that ideal crisp-with-chew balance, and the hashbrowns had a crispy outer layer that gave way to soft, savory insides. Simple, but done right. Service was kind and easygoing--the perfect pace for a morning meal. Plenty of space inside, and the layout somehow makes it feel both open and cozy at the same time. This place feels like a best-kept secret: part brunch lounge, part evening hotspot. We'll absolutely be back. Might just become our go-to.
