Been back since my original review and had breakfast there. Their service is wonderful, the ladies serving there are so sweet and attentive. We had the breakfast buffet and it was really good. And the restaurant is absolutely spotless. Very pleasant place to eat.Original:Great service and the food was very good. Best chicken quesadilla I've had in a while.

My wife enjoyed a wonderful breakfast. When you walk in you seat yourself. Within just a few minutes our waitress came to our table. We were still looking at the menu but the very kind waitress took our drink order. We both got coffee. It came to the table very hot and was very good.I ordered "The Big One" with French toast and I chose sausage and order my eggs over medium. Everything seemed very fresh, was hot and had great flavor. The only slightly disappointing part was that it was served with whipped margarine instead of real butter.My wife ordered "The Original" with her eggs over easy and she chose bacon. The eggs were perfectly cooked. The bacon was thick and perfectly crispy without being overcooked. The hash browns were delicious.Service was fast and friendly. Food came out quickly, was hot and tasted great. Refills of coffee and water were offered at just the right times.We are looking forward to returning soon.
