This review is going to be really long because I'm going to be writing about two different times I've been here.
Before I came here the first time, I've been wanting to come here for a long time. I would've gone a lot sooner but my best days to go out for breakfast are Mondays, and this place is closed on Mondays, which is a huge hindrance to me. I was able to come on a Sunday the first time I went. For future trips, you might want to have reservations because when I came here the first time, I had to wait about 45 minutes before I got seated because they were really busy that day.
This restaurant is different from The Nest because this location serves more lunch/brunch items. So because of that, I decided to get the breakfast burger with the mini bacon waffle as my side. As I was first eating my food, I was really enjoying the burger. The bacon waffle was also pretty good too, I can't complain. However when I was finishing up my food, the burger started to become overwhelming. I'm not sure if it was because of the double patty + egg combo, but it started to become too much. I was even starting to gag a little bit so I had to stop eating, which is NOT normal for me because I can eat a lot. For the breakfast burger, only one patty is enough, two patties is superfluous.
This service during my first visit was also really good. My waiter made sure to check up on me constantly but not too much.
For my second visit, my experience wasn't pleasant. There was barely anyone since the restaurant had just opened up a few minutes before so I didn't need any reservations so I found that to be nice. I decided to get the chicken and waffles (secret menu item). The chicken and waffles were okay, just okay. The chicken was pretty decent, it was the waffle that threw things off. I'm not sure how to describe it, but it seemed like the waffles didn't have any significant flavor, even with the syrup. I was really disappointed because I thought that it would be better.
On top of that, when I was eating my food, my waitress stopped checking up on me. This was a problem because at the time, I really needed some more water, and I wasn't able to continue eating my food because of this so that annoyed me. I had to ask one of the other employees for a water.
To be honest, I don't think I'm going to be coming here any time soon. I've had better experiences with other breakfast restaurants in Bellflower. I had high hopes for this restaurant, so I hate the fact that I'm writing this. Unless if they decide to open up on Mondays, I probably won't be coming back for a while.
