    They cook their food with a lot of love and little grease. Two words: COMBO OMELETTE. This place is better than Mecca!

    Amazing breakfast spot but if you're looking for smiling staff & hospitable owners....probably not going to find that here! But the pancakes are so amazing, it doesn't really seem to matter.

    Greek omelette and huevos rancheros are great. John makes the best burger in Dallas. By far! And he really should bottle his salsa for sale at the supermarket.

    Pretty darn legit breakfast special! Top it off with the smooth premium coffee and down home customer service. A gem of Dallas!

    Try grilled onions in the hash-browns that come with the breakfast special. Also, the Friday Lunch Special, Open Hot Beef, is incredible. Mounds of slow cooked meat on Texas toast w/ gravy! Read more
