in the last weekWhat is the hype over this restaurant? A friend and I have been twice in a month for breakfast and lunch, and both times left disappointed. Eggs were so undercooked, the whites were still oozing clear liquid, the homefries were yesterday’s potatoes refried, the coffee tragically undrinkable, and the veg burger was stale like a hockey puck and tasteless. Our table was also filthy when we sat down and it wasn’t even busy! The servers are nice and attentive but that’s the only positive I can see here. We will not return.

in the last weekCalled to place a pick up(take-out) order, lady told me they are not doing take out orders because they are full in house? Thanks for making me feel valued as a customer. I probably won't be trying again. Ridiculous!
