    Highlight was definitely the potatoes, like every other tip here. French toast and pancakes were meh. Sour coffee. Overall overrated.

    Waited for 1 and a half hour... eventually left because of poor line management and time expectations from hostess.

    Not worth waiting an hour and half in line for. They don't even call you so you have to be in the area
