    Great restaurant - great service and chef! The coffee, however, is ‘greatly’ overpriced at $5.00/cup!!!

    Ordered the two egg breakfast. Everything tasted phenomenal. Butter not margarine. Eggs tasted amazing and the bacon was wonderfully crisp. Our Server was also excellent. Very attentive.

    Portion sizes are enormous! I always end up with enough for another meal. Terrific place for conversation. Again, the food is delicious and the service is impeccable.

    Avoid the breakfast buffet, you will be better off ordering from the menu. Unfortunate combination of high prices, a poor selection and mediocre food.

    Interesting menu. Simple but good. The place is nice and quiet, not a mad house like the Keg next door.
