    If you have one breakfast in Seattle, come here. Well, at least that's what I did and I was not disappointed. Excellent Mexican style food with a friendly waitstaff.

    Always order off their themed menus, which change every three months. The staff are fun, the food is mouthwateringly good and their late hours rule. A diner for discerning adults!

    There’s going to be a wait time so get there early but the food is decent price and lots of flavor for your money’s worth. The decor inside is unique as well.

    Huge portions, great food, indifferent staff. The fried chicken serves 3, easily, and the kid's sundae is the perfect size for just about anybody.

    The cinnamon swirl french toast is outstanding!! They serve breakfast until 3pm, which is great since I am not a morning person.

    I bow down to this place. The B3LT was out of this world. Beer battered fried bacon? Bacon jam? On the same delicious kaiser roll? Yes please, I don't care if my arteries clog, I will die happy!

    Funky diner with standard breakfast fare and strong coffee, however they also offer a gluten-free menu, which is appreciated.

    I had the fried chicken steak and potatoes. Water served in mason jars. Diner feel. Quick service, fair pricing. Parking can be hard though.

    The Cinnamon Swirl French Toast is the BEST French Toast I have ever eaten! Doused in caramel! I actually need hash browns to balance the sweet of the French Toast.

    Order from their secret menu: my fav is the grilled cheese sandwich with heirloom tomatoes, plus a side of fries. Good at any hour of the day.

    Huge portions, enough for three people. Smaller dishes with lower prices would be better. Bring a friend that likes the same food as you. Always check the dessert specials, they never disappoint.

    I was surprised by how big and cool the inside is. I was very disappointed in the $12.50 special. It had all the right ingredients to be great but it lacked any real flavor.
