TL;DR
- Price: $9 - 13 per person
- Flavor: Breakfast
- Filling?: Yes
- Parking: Difficult

Okay, so parking is hard to come by when it's  closer to closing time 12 - 2 pm. If breakfast is earlier for you, then you should be fine.

Seat yourself! Sitting at the counter is really cool because you get a close look at where the magic happens.

The employees are really on top of things. Their interactions with customers are a delight to eavesdrop upon. Everyone is really personable and willing to converse. They came by really quickly for my drink order and my coffee cup was never empty.

There are a lot of omelet choices. I'll have to make note of this for next time.

Ordered the DK: scrambled eggs with cheese on home fries with 3 strip of bacon and toast (white, wheat, sourdough, multigrain, or rye).

Very generous helpings all around. The cheese had the nice, melty, pull apart quality. Home fries are potatoes, plain and simple. Sometimes simple is the best way to go. The bacon strips were huge but not as crispy as I like. They were crisp, don't get me wrong, just not to the level I prefer.

A mild glisten on the toast suggested that it was prebuttered. If you like buttering your own toast (or prefer your toast unbuttered  [blasphemy!]) I'd let them know. Overall the multigrain was pretty good.

This is a cool breakfast joint. They have excellent service and the food is a great way to start off a productive day.
