A great atmosphere here with excellent indoor/outdoor seating and amazing food. Chicken and waffles are phenomenal! Three egg omelette... amazing! The kids turkey, egg, and cheese burrito was also very good. I'll be back for those chicken and waffles again AND want to try the steak and eggs with chimichurri 🤤. I'm not sure why there was a service charge applied with only three people eating but paid it. Overall, great food and atmosphere! - GT Bird
