    BEWARE-Your open table reservation is NOT a reservation but priority seating over the walks in for the waiting list. They don’t care that you made a reservation through opentable and we still had to wait 20 mins to be sat. We stood next to another party who was told the same thing and were frustrated also and were waiting longer than us (we had party of 3 and they had 5). My water glass was dirty and I had to ask for another. The pastrami Ruben was fine but the coleslaw and sauerkraut was not good. The tropical waffles were great. Personally, I would eat elsewhere in the future

    Even with reservation you gonna wait 20 mins. My hashbrowns were burnt. The chicken omelette was lacking flavor. Prices were ok. The bbq chicken wings were the best. The place was ok not bad.

    Very rude and ableist staff. I had a reservation for two, when they finally called me 25 minutes after my scheduled reservation he asked if we were okay to sit at the bar, I said that I have a back injury and needed the support to sit in a chair. During 15 more minutes of waiting I noticed other parties of two being seated before us. When I asked him if he forgot about us he was very nasty and said that he offered me a seat at the bar. We left and found another restaurant to have breakfast.

    Waiter was great and friendly, food was okay, but host and manager were disrespectful and unprofessional. I got yelled at and humiliated.

    The food was good and the service was really good by the guy that served us. He was very quick and on it but we didn’t get our drinks for ages after we had ordered them.
