Only tried 2 food items so I’ll have to revisit a few more times and try out various items on their menu. Excellent service. There’s plenty of parking and the restaurant has a nice environment with plenty of space. There’s an another separated room where I believe you can hold say a party or a banquet or the like. Nice options!

Birthday brunch date! The deli sandwiches we’re great! My husband ordered “the Statue of Liberty” & I ordered the “hot pastrami” both were yummy! They’re Rye bread they make for the sandwiches tasted fresh & Soft ,the meat is tender and juicy. The sides that come with sandwiches I would say are bland ,but you don’t mind it too much cause the sandwiches have a good amount of sodium. Of course they serve the sandwiches with a side pickle spear which is always nice. We also shared a stack of pancakes, they were good. Nice and fluffy and had a small crust on the edge of the flapjacks. I forgot what my niece ordered, her BF ordered the Belgian waffle and loved it! He said that was absolutely delicious. I believe he just got it plain (no toppings or fruit.)

This place is awesome. The food is delicious. You have to try the Carne Asada Benedict. Eggs are perfectly light and the carne asada is super tasty. The challah french toast is also super yummy.

I was nervous about paying close to 20 dollars just for pancakes or waffles: I needed pictures they were extravagant and when I asked the waitress she responded (somewhat amusingly) “No, they are just waffles”.

If you haven’t tried this place, go now! I tried the cabbage rolls because haven’t had them since I was young when my mom made them. I had the garlic mashed potatoes and vegetables with them. The food was awesome! They make their bread and desserts. Delicious food and the tea actually tasted like tea and not colored water. They also have outside seating.

I was here for an event. The service was really nice, they checked in a good amount and our waitress was really nice. We got the Carne Asada Fries and Napoleon. The fries were good. The Napoleon was a bit hard, difficult to cut despite it being a light pastry dessert. If you’re hosting an event, it’s pretty nice for that.
