DAY TWO OF SPRING BREAK!!! 03/14/2023
After enjoying a nice three-mile run at the park, hubby and I were starving! This establishment came as a recommendation from a friend of my husband's and we decided to go for it. I'm so glad we tried it out, especially after being disappointed with a different breakfast/brunch place the day before.
Upon entering, there wasn't a hostess at the entrance, so hubby and I stood waiting because we didn't know what to do. Remember, it's our first visit. Luckily we didn't wait too long because the hostess came running when she noticed us waiting for service. The place was crowded, but there were a few available tables and booths. Our hostess found a booth that I was most comfortable with because I'm extremely particular by where I am seated. She was so kind and patient. I wish I would have gotten her name.
First, the customer service by our server Cassandra was good. It wasn't great but just good, which is okay with me as long as you're not rude or unpleasant. We didn't have to wait long for her to make her presence because she immediately came over and took our drink orders. I ordered hot coffee with hazel nut creamers and hubby ordered orange juice. When she brought our drinks to our table, I instantly noticed red lipstick spots on the coffee cup and I wasn't wearing any and I hadn't even tried the coffee yet, so I knew that the lipstick wasn't mine. I wiped the cup with a napkin to confirm my suspicions and they were right as the lipstick stains were coming off the cup onto the napkin. I wasn't too upset because mistakes happen. They need to be more aware of this issue in the future. As for my hubby's orange juice, he complained that it wasn't cold at all and that it was lukewarm! Ugh! We did not bother the waitress about fixing the temperature of the orange juice but I definitely addressed the issue with my lipstick-stained coffee cup. I was immediately brought a fresh and clean coffee cup and the hostess apologized about the whole situation. The coffee was very hot like I like it, but it was weak. I prefer strong coffee, lol. Nevertheless, I did enjoy it.
Secondly, for our breakfast, we both ordered the Hearty Breakfast. I had a Belgian waffle and two fully cooked sunny side up eggs which was accompanied by chicken sausage patties and grits. Hubby had a pancake and two scrambled eggs for his Hearty Breakfast which was accompanied by grits, two chicken sausage patties, and toast with an extra side of hash brown at an additional cost. We both enjoyed our breakfast immensely. Everything was spot on. The grits were actually hot and not cold or lukewarm. The eggs were cooked to perfection and not burned or scorched! The pancakes had a delicious and undistinguishable flavor to them. The Belgian waffle was buttery and crunchy. It was so good that I did not need any syrup.
Lastly, we enjoyed our overall dining experience. I highly recommend this establishment for good quality breakfast items and good service. I gave them four stars based on the food and the customer service. However, the lipstick-stained coffee cup that was served to me caused me to hold back one star. They are definitely worth trying again. We will be back!
