text: I have to tell you that it pains me to give the restaurant by this name such a crappy review rating I have been to two others of these in southern California and they are both s in my book and everyone I go there with every time I go down to visit So maybe I had high expectations But no I think they truly earned a They may not even have a chance to redeem themselves with me First impressions are SO important nnWe went on Friday morning pretty much during peak breakfast time for most that do not get up at the crack of dawn It was about am We fully expected a wait for breakfast and as we suspected we had one The young man functioning as host had a rather unique method He did not write anyones names down he just tried to remember who was who and in what order even as people filed in I guess it seemed to work ok as we did not hear any fights and got seated in a timely fashion Thank goodness for being a party of two and being able to sit at a little tablennI knew ahead of time what I wanted to order though I was concerned that it would be too huge for me would take a long time to cook and my leftovers would have to sit in the car all day I ALWAYS order the apple pancakes They are my favorite I just love them Even if they take minutes to bake and are humungous Imagine sauteed apples with a pancakecake batter poured on it with lots of cinnamon baked in the oven Yes its sooo good Usually I was quite happy to see that they had a option of a Junior apple pancake smaller version of the same goodness I usually like They should all do this SG ordered a regular egg dish which also comes with some pancakes nnAfter about minutes my pancake arrives BURNT So if I had gotten it about minutes earlier it would have been perfect Ironic I thought it would be ok but I could not eat the charred edges they just were too burnt Steves meal took another minute to come My meal is the one that takes forever and then its like they forget the other order I noticed this at the neighboring table and blew it off until it happened to us They need to time things better My food would have been cold if I was polite enough to waitnnOur service was also pitiful I had to get up and get the syrup from the bus station myself Coffee refills were few and far between too But we were headed to a ball game so we probably did not want to have too much coffee on board I did notice the service at the neighboring tables with a different waitress appeared to be much better than ours but I can only rate our experience nnWe will likely not be back here There are lots of breakfast options elsewhere and I can save my Apple pancake as a treat for Socal
