A great FW opens early and is a nice place to hang out with friends for breakfast and brunch. I ordered the sandwich and salad combo. One thing was that the oil on my salad made my vegetable really sticky.

I had a great experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was inviting, and the service was excellent. I accidentally spilled a drink, and the waiters handled the situation very calmly. They helped to quickly clean up the mess and replaced my drink for free. I was very impressed with their professionalism and courtesy. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great dining experience.

Found a piece of uncooked raw meat in my salad. As a vegetarian disgusted is an understatement. Our server took the food back and replaced it but I’ve been here a couple times and just never expected this!

Amazing place!!! We’re from out of town, came with a family group of 9. Our Host got to us immediately. She was very kind. Our waitress Sophia was very nice and attentive. Food was brought out quickly and boy was it delicious. And very on the healthier side, which we can’t complain. The decor is nice and kind of rustic which gives it a nice look. Will definitely be coming back here when back in town. Great place, if I could give more stars I would. Thanks for the awesome service!!!!!

I was super excited when OSU campus got one of these! It’s a really nice place to get brunch with friends and family. On the weekends it’ll be around a 30 minute wait for a table, but the atmosphere pleases my mom and granny every time. The waffles have a perfect crunch and fluff.

We walked here for breakfast on a Sunday. We were pleasantly surprised to be seated immediately. Our server was very good. She took our drink order and brought them right to us. We ordered and our food came out quickly.

I have been to two different ones both in the columbus area and both were amazing. Service was great. The waitress was friendly help and chipper( a bit to chipper that early in the morning) nice atmosphere and roomy. The food was amazing and large portions the only disappointment was the shareable bacon. 4 slices and not crispy but to each their own. Would highly recommend.
