Jason SpaffordMarch 5, 2013This place is offensively bad. The service was fine but the restaurant just plain isn't good. It's half a mark away from being on par with Denny's. How arrogant are they to call themselves fine food?
Andre B.April 17, 2015Went to Sears on our last day. We were lucky, no queue (Friday morning 8:45). My French Toast was good. You can skip the cappuccino. Take one at the Union Square. Avoid the Granola Fruit Bowl.
Gavin SchulzMarch 25, 2018Average food for the price, upside is that wait times aren’t usually too long.
Roberto SosaJanuary 26, 2011Food (dinner) and service was just that: fine. Might consider giving them a second chance for breakfast --maybe.
Thomas LeachAugust 30, 2013Do not go! Very average food. For 4 of us the cheque came to $70 which is pretty hefty for some pancakes and coffee. It's just a tourist trap!
Gerk ShinobiOctober 16, 2010Watch out they try to make you pay a minimum of eight dollars per person and there is a poster with the word nigger on the wall
Bianca BuenoMarch 27, 2011The French toast is really bad. It tastes like deepfried bread and not grilled bread with butter and spices. And the strawberry is not fresh either. It doesn't worth.
oh I am coming back every time to Carol's counter. Of course.
Di KadyrovaAugust 6, 2014Overpriced and not tasty! "Fresh" orange juice does not feel freshly squeezed at all
