    Grilled Cheese Burger
    Chelsey E.

    We decided to check out this cute restaurant last night (after sitting at another restaurant across the street for almost 30 minutes without being spoken to or acknowledged). I'm absolutely terrible with names but we had the sweetest waitress, she greeted us with a big smile and took our drink order. Then she promptly took our food order after giving us several recommendations since we'd never been here before. My husband, son, and I all got different cheese burgers. I got the Grilled Cheese Cheeseburger and it was delicious! It comes on Texas Toast, two patties, cheese, and lots of delicious bacon. My son got the kids burger and added bacon to it, listen this 6 year old can be an extremely picky eater, he ate the entire burger and kept saying how good it was. (He's still talking about it today.) My husband ordered a side salad and it came with their homemade ranch (yum!). He also ordered the Fire Burger with no avocado. It was giant and juicy! He said the chipotle mayo was amazing! Everything was so good - the food, the waitress, the cooks, the atmosphere - we will absolutely be back soon!

    Biscuits with Sausage Gravy
    Bill C.

    Went back with my wife. So much food at such a reasonable price! Five stars for the food-to-price ratio. She got the migas and said it was good but the black beans were m'eh, at best. The hash browns were perfectly fried. The French toast was decent. My biggest disappointment was the bacon, which was pretty bland.

    Burrito and BLT
    Lee P.

    Food was on point. i had the breakfast burrito and she had a BLT. We had about a 5 minute wait to be seated. But that was quick considering how busy they were. Coffee was great and tasted great. It's a simple dinner vibe where it's clear all the concentration was on the food and service. Definitely a great place to check out.

    Crepes
    D. Scott C.

    Came in because we wanted to try some local places, which is always a gamble. The joint's located in an old Pizza Hut building. They did a nice job remodeling the space. The hostess and server were great. Boss Lady ordered the "special" chilequiles and I the huevos rancheros. Her's was good but lacked salt. Had an order of plane crepes, which were just Okay. Mine was really tasty with the pork being crispy and flavored well. Odd thing is that the tortillas were very crispy, like for a tostada. I asked for the hash browns to be extra crispy, which they were. Big problem for us is that they don't have actual creamer nor butter. We're not into highly processed, fake food. Everything was really tasty but if they don't have the real things at the table, what are they using in the kitchen?!?! We'll check back at a later date to see if there's been any change.

    My reheated biscuits and sausage gravy.

    Almost One Star, Saved by the Manager Came in through the back entrance for breakfast (three of us). The hostess asked us to follow her -- we walked past several empty booths, went all the way to the front entrance, then were seated near the back where we started. Totally unnecessary and a bit chaotic. I ordered steak and eggs with hash browns, plus biscuits and sausage gravy. The food was just okay. The gravy was almost cold, but I had already poured it over my biscuits. I asked for fresh gravy and new biscuits. Almost 10 minutes later -- after my tablemates had already finished eating -- they brought me the same biscuits I had already poured gravy on, just stuck under a heater to warm them up. They were rubbery and inedible. Instead of actually fixing it, they tried to pass off reheated leftovers. Thankfully, the manager came over, was super friendly and apologetic, and got me a fresh, hot plate of biscuits and gravy -- which were actually very good. Giving two stars because of the manager's great service. Otherwise, it would've been one.

    Buffalo Chicken Sandwich
    Renee N.

    We tried this little gem today in downtown RC. The service was on point and our server was really nice. I couldn't decide on an option and she recommended the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich without hesitation. It was possibly the best BCS I've ever eaten. The chicken was crispy and juicy, the breading was seasoned well and it was the just the right amount of wing sauce. The bun was also sturdy enough to handle all of the juicy goodness. My parents ordered the Club Sandwich and CFS sandwich, both looked fresh and tasty. The fries were crispy and the fried okra was on point too. The pickle spears were also a nice touch. It seems to me the ingredients used are of good quality which is hard to come by these days. The restaurant is quaint and you certainly won't be disappointed! Try it out and support local businesses!

    Traditional Bacon/Egg Breakfast

    It was my first time going here and right away I thought this spot was so cute and cozy! The diner was clean and so well decorated. The food was absolutely amazing, the hash browns were cooked to perfection and the pancakes nice and fluffy. Our server was so kind and attentive, she was very sweet and answered all our questions.

    Everything ordered was pretty solid
    Leo M.

    Place was nice older building in a strip center updated inside making it more comfy. Service was not bad and the food was definitely worth returning for multiple visits

Our waitress greeted us as she was busy running around but still said good morning and that she would be with us soon. When she came back she brought waters for us and took our drink order. Our food was excellent!! We ate every single bite. We ordered the chicken fried chicken and I ordered some eggs, a bagel, sausage, and hashbrowns. We are very pleased with the speed of the service as well as the quality of the food! The cooks do a great job! And the waiters I can tell work very hard to take care of customers and the bus boys are also hustling to clear tables as fast as possible. It was all so great! I feel bad we forgot the name of our waitress but she was excellent! She was very attentive and I noticed she was talking to other customers as well and making them smile :) we will definitely be back here again in the near future!

    It was my first time in for brunch and there was a line but was able to get a spot at the bar and…read moreavoid the wait. The place is nice inside with a lot of tables and a full bar for cocktails. There were not many options for cold coffee and the bartender attempted to make an iced americano which wasn't great and forgot to bring any type of sweetener for it. I ordered the chicken fried steak with hash browns and two over easy eggs. The chicken fried steak needed more seasoning for me but it did have a tang to it. Not sure if it's from the marinade but the tangy flavor was there. The hash browns were nice and crispy and eggs cooked perfectly. What saved the chicken fried steak was the bottle of hot sauce they had at the bar. It was not labeled so hard to tell what exactly it was but it was delicious. We also ordered biscuits and a side of gravy and I felt like that should be on the menu as a dish. The biscuits were nice and soft and the gravy had a lot of flavor. I'd definitely like to come back and try some of the sweeter options such as waffles or pancakes. If you are in the Rockwall area check this place out

    Sunday noonish, and this sounded good on the menu. Steak Benedict was not photogenic.

    Food: The gluten-free waffles were delicious. The highlight of the meal. Eggs had a distinct,…read morealmost funky taste (probably the cooking fat or pan), and the bacon was overcooked. Still good, just a bit too crispy. Service: Friendly, but they dropped the ball at the end. Both drinks ran dry, I sat there forever waiting to pay, and my bottomless coffee was not exactly bottomless. A refill or faster checkout would've made a big difference. Prices: I walked out $30+ lighter, just myself. Breakfast/coffee/tip. The vibe is classic hipster cute with nice decor, but it gets surprisingly loud in there. Would return for those waffles, just maybe not on a rushed morning.

When we checked in, we were told the wait would be about 40 minutes. While we waited, we watched five different parties--most with groups of three to five people--get seated before us. I know they didn't have reservations because two of those groups actually asked us how to check in before they were seated. After waiting the 40 minutes we were originally quoted, I went back to ask why we still hadn't been seated. Instead of an explanation or an apology, I was simply told, "It's going to be another 40 minutes." I truly don't want to believe this was a race issue, but I can't ignore how the experience made me feel. If customer service and fairness matter to you, I encourage you to be mindful of how situations like this can come across. Every guest deserves to be treated with respect, clear communication, and consistency. Let be better people!
