I like this place a lot, but it isn't without it's faults. Location is great, and the food is good but the eggs they just couldn't get right.
Smacked on a street corner in Silver Lake surrounded by a lot of other great places, making this a perfect location. The restaurant is small and not too busy through the week when I went but guaranteed to fill up during busy brunch trips on the weekends.
The food is an array of choices from vegan and vegetarian to somewhat vague renditions of southern faire. Unfortunately being from the south is a curse.
The Southern Decadence came with a hard biscuit and plain gravy but the fried chicken breast had all the flavor. There was the Fried Green Tomato Benedict that, while good in theory, just didn't come through. Egg was over cooked and not runny, greens weren't what we expected and the biscuit was hard.
On a different occasion I had the corned beef hash where again I was slightly disappointed. The hash was basically just sliced corn beef and home fries but it tasted SO good. Flavor won, but again the over medium eggs was cooked harder than hard. Possibly stick with sunnyside and see how it turns out?
All in all I enjoyed it but it didn't knock my socks off. I'm sure I'll be back though.
