“ I'm so glad this place is still open after all these years! I've been eating here since I was a kid. I don't have a picture of my food bc it was so good as usual lol ”
“ Good spot to go to for a big real breakfast. They have a big selection of sandwiches, burgers & different options for a good portion breakfast deal. Old-school place not to many of these left. They have plenty of parking. You used to be able to eat inside but it's a different world we live in. ”
“ I used to go here years ago, and this was my 1st time visiting in quite some time, however the nostalgia was quickly awakened from the first bite. My order doesn't change, I get the Denver omelet, and call it a day. The sheer size of the omelet of gigantic, and perfect for those famished. Hiding under the giant omelet are made to order griddle fried potatoes that pair perfectly with the omelet. You get 2 slices of toast, however I rarely have room for the toast, as everything else is filling. ”
“ I love the breakfast here! It's a lot for your money! ”
“ I've been coming to this restaurant for breakfast omelets for thirty two years. The Denver omelet is my favorite and it's large enough for two people. Glad omelets can be ordered all day. They have the best hash browns. I've treated fifty people to omelets and no one complained. The staff was friendly and professional. Once I had an issue and they correct it. I have a great deal of respect for them, they're very hard workers. ”
