I hate leaving bad reviews, and maybe the restaurant already knows they have issues because we were the only customers there at 9:00 a.m. on a Monday.
To start, the windows overlooking the runway were covered in kids' fingerprints, making it difficult to enjoy watching the few planes. We looked past that, only to be served some of the worst coffee I've ever had. It had a strange flavor, and the rim of my coffee mug was dirty.
I ordered the chicken and waffles, and my boyfriend got the Pilot's Breakfast. His grits were completely flavorless with a strange texture, so they were inedible. The bottoms of his fried eggs were gray--possibly from the pan? Either way, he couldn't eat those either. The only standout on his plate was the bacon.
My chicken cutlets were tough and stringy. The breading was overly salty, but at least it had some flavor. Thankfully, it's hard to mess up waffles, and those were actually okay.
It also took about 25 minutes for our food to come out, which seemed like a long time considering we were the only people in the restaurant.
It's a shame because the aviation-themed décor is really neat, especially if you're into planes. The menu is simple, and they even have a cute bar. Unfortunately, the staff didn't seem very friendly or happy to be there. As a server myself, I understand how difficult it can be to work somewhere that's slow and not making much money, so I don't hold that against them. However, with food this disappointing, it's not surprising the restaurant was empty.
They have the potential to be a great breakfast spot, but they really need someone in the kitchen who can consistently cook breakfast well. Getting the basics wrong is hard to overlook. 1/10 read more
