Reviews
The food here is so good!! We had breakfast while visiting some friends because the recommended it and we weren't disappointed. The reuben sandwich was one of the best I have had here in Florida, and the Omelet my partner had was so tasteful, really good. The service was really good, a little slow that day, but it was because the restaurant was really full of people...well, it was a Sunady morning.
Small little place with good food and friendly service. I had the banana nut waffle, hubby had the country fried steak breakfast and kids had waffles. Hubbys was by far the best. I wasn’t the biggest fan of the waffle. But it was good. Just not great. But I tasted my husbands and it was really good! Eggs were great, steak was great, and grits were great.
This is a small family owned breakfast spot. The service is friendly and fast. The food is tasty. Only complaint is that the space is tight when the restaurant is full, it’s hard to get to the counter to pay and get out of the front door if people are waiting for a table. I would eat there again. I had a bbq bacon cheeseburger with fries and it was delicious.
Prices aren’t accurate online! Ordered a to-go large pancake with one topping. It ended up being double what the price says on here. I was shocked when the cashier told me I owed over $10. I told her I just got a pancake. She confirmed the price. I told her the price it said on here and she laughed saying they’d be out of business if they had those prices and they need to be updated online. I told her I never would’ve paid over $10 for a pancake with a topping if I knew the accurate price before ordering. The pancake was…well, a pancake and tasted fine, but not worth over $10. Disappointed in the customer service more than the pancake itself.
Thought we would give this local spot a try for breakfast based on their current rating of a 4.8. From the start looked as if it could be good choice as it was packed with people. Well what a misconception. Very small inside smelled of mildew. We decided to still try the food. I ordered scrambled eggs bacon and a side of sausage gravy and biscuits. Also came with breakfast potatoes. My eggs came out crumbled in very small pieces and rubbery and ice cold. My bacon and potatoes were cold as well. My gravy had set so long it had formed that dark thick layer on top that gravy does. Wow is all I have to say!!! My husband’s meal was the same way ice cold and not edible. We really wanted to like this place as it is close to us. Not sure how the maintain that high of a rating because it is not accurate!
Small diner, big thumbs up for food! Eggs over medium, bacon, grits, whole wheat toast, veggie omelet, hash browns w/w toast. The grits were creamy and delicious, none of that instant stuff! The bacon was meaty and yummy, not overcooked and dry. The omelet was great and the eggs were cooked right. The biggest surprise was the toast. So good!
So friendly! Great food and the wait staff is fast, efficient and happy. Highly recommend
This is a great little Roadside Diner. We live on Anna Maria and frequent the cafe. We love the fast and friendly service. Atmosphere channels the old Florida vibe. Overall we always enjoy our meals here.
