Once we actually got seated, tensions were high but we were relieved to just be there and the prospect of some amazing food kept us at bay. They had a very nice menu with farm to table options and a seasonal menu with all offerings. Being fall, that included a pumpkin pie pancake plate which is what I ordered. It came with 2 eggs and sausage. Once the food arrived, I was dismayed that my eggs and sausage were ice cold. I had to send them back to get hot eggs.My food must have must have been out first and was sitting out while my friend for being prepared as there is were hot.
If you’re coming here on a Sunday morning you better have used the Nowait app or first watch app because otherwise you could be waiting for up to 2 hours!! This place needs to
To start with, I called early in the morning since the place has a reputation for having very long lines. I called and asked what the wait time was, and was told it was approximately an hour and a half. At the end of the conversation, I was informed that they had a brand new amazing app where I could put myself in line remotely. I downloaded the app and put myself in line. The app told me I had about a three hour wait ahead of me and that it would text me when my table was ready.
Our waitress was very nice and offered us coffee immediately. When she left, we realized that while we had coffee and creamers and sugar, we had no silverware or anything to start the coffee with. We couldn't get her attention for another 10 minutes so I’ll we had a hot coffee it was not drinkable.
This is really an amazing breakfast place. It is right by the highway and has spacious parking. They have amazing options in the menus both for drinks and meals. I liked my sunrise Granola, variety of fruits pieces on top of the yoghurt incorporated with the granola chunks., this was a wonderful light breakfast and the coffee was nice too. The staffs are so nice and attentive. The inside is and tables are clean. There are beautiful paintings on the walls. It was just a nice experience.
When ours arrived, all the food except the grits was cold and the basted eggs were actually fried. We informed our waiter who said he would have our food recooked. Our food was left on the table while we sat, not eating. Several minutes later a man came to our table and asked if everything was OK. We said that our food was cold and our waiter was taking care of it. We found later the man was the manager but he never introduced himself nor offered any apology.
triple in size for at least days like that. It can’t handle it long term. It’s losing SO MANY customers because of it. Families from all over Texas come on weekend and it’s so tough. They close at 2 but people just leave at around at 11:30 am-12:00 pm because the wait is 2 hours so the only customers they actually serve are from when they open to about 11:30 am.
The fact that we had to wait crazy amounts of time without much understanding from the staff, and cold eggs and coffee, it all just KILLED the total experience.
I have heard lots of great things about this place. I was warned not to come on the weekend as the wait can be up to an hour. My wife and I decided to go eat on a Tuesday morning. There was absolutely no wait. The atmosphere is very nice and the service was top notch. You get a lot of food here which is great. The only reason I am giving a 4 star is because I had super high expectations for the food, since I've only heard great things. I was a little disappointed. The food isn't bad by any means, just not as amazing as it had been built up to be. I prefer IHOP's food to be frank, but the atmosphere here is better. Overall it was a good experience. I would return.
Overall the food tasted very good and the atmosphere was fun and new! And the price was OK for what I was expecting.
Sad to say we have crossed this restaurant off our list. It seemed to have such promise. The owner needs to train employees, and especially managers, how to resolve issues like this.
Barely 2 stars... only for the food though- service would be a 0!
When our recooked food arrived, the bacon was crisp, but the food was still cold. The only things hot in our meal were the coffee and the grits. Our total time in the restaurant was an hour and 15 minutes. Too long.
About an hour and 15 minutes later, I call just to verify the accuracy of my place in line, and see how long we currently timewise. The first person I spoke to had zero idea what I was referring to and said that the current wait time was an hour and 45 minutes. I tried desperately to explain to him that I was already in line and had been for over an hour and solely wanted to see how much time was left. After a two minute conversation trying to get some details, I asked to speak to someone else or a manager since he wasn’t understanding my question.
We arrived at the restaurant when it was only 1/2 full. We ordered two classic breakfasts, one with eggs basted, crisp bacon, dry toast and the other eggs over medium, crisp bacon, buttered toast and grits subbed for the potatoes. The table next to us was vacant when we arrive then filled several minutes later. The couple next to us received their order way before us.
The next person I talk to actually took my name and information and proceeded to look me up. She informed me that I was not even on the list but that she could place me on the list and I could wait almost 2 hours. She said the only other thing I could do was come in and speak to a manager in person. I came into the restaurant and try to explain my situation at which point the staff was very friendly and were able to see us within 10 minutes of us waiting in person.
