This is one of the famous breakfast and brunch specials in Polaris. This is can be easily seen from the road. Please make sure you plan for this restaurant as it will be busy always. The restaurant is big and have 12-15 tables. The service is good and they prepare your order fresh every time. I am being eggterian ordered veggie omelette and avocado sandwiches, they were great. I liked the purple haze drink, really refreshing. They do have brunch and lunch combos. It’s must go if you are breakfast lover.

Our waitress, Kevin, was very sweet. He is the tall, strong, and handsome chinese man with tattoos. He provided the absolute best service I have received, ever. Would recommend this little hole in the wall to anyone who visits the 614. ✌️

Love the healthy options here. The service was great and they have plenty of gluten free options. Had the wrap with the egg whites. The flavor was incredible and had to take leftovers. Definitely worth the visit! Also strong coffee and great service!

This was probably about my 5th time eating at this restaurant, and I definitely won’t be going back! Every time we go, the dishes are always dirty. This time, the knife that I got was covered in eggs, and previous times, the silverware or glasses were not clean. I ordered a honey crunch carmel iced coffee, and it was just ice and carmel. Worse carmel iced coffee I ever had and you couldn’t taste any coffee!! Also, there was little thought pit into the design of the restaurant, and there is no waiting area, and only one cash register at the front entrance makes for an uncomfortable and congested area. Waiting in line to pay isn’t a pleasure, and I definitely value my time more than the restaurant values its customers!

We stopped here just by chance and so glad we did. The staff were so friendly and our food came out quick. The servings are adequate along with prices. We would definitely recommend a stop in and would gladly go back.

I have passed this store maybe 500 times over the years and have never stopped in until this morning. Following a medical procedure nearby which required fasting for the prior 36 hours, I was absolutely famished. Upon request, the very sweet waitress set me up with a few slices of toast while waiting for our main order. She was very kind and attentive. The gentleman checking us out was equally professional. Also, the restaurant decor and cleanliness was very good. Thank you. We will be back soon!

Let me begin by saying this: any restaurant that sells a cookbook with all their recipes truly operates transparently. You can’t build more trust with your customer base than that.
